The Crow Witch (moved) @vicorva@wandering.shop

I have a new account on @vicorva and I can't import followers from wandering.shop due to the instance being outdated.

Please do follow me on my new account for more microfiction, catposting, and talking far too much.

How do people maintain alts and different social media accounts?

I've only been doing it for like an hour and I'm already confused and cross.

I mean, I intend to move properly somewhere at some point but even so.

Oh yeh, #introductions, I should have done that.

Am Gwenfar, addicted to #plants and #gardening, but that's mainly over at my #gardening, #food, #cooking alt: @GwenfarsGarden.

This alt is kind of my general musings on any thing from #politics, living with the #ChronicIllness #MECFS and in general, #disability issues. Love #SciFi and adoring/worshiping cats. My cat is @FreyaKitteh. I'm also really keen on pre-1660 British #History, particularly social history. Currently been learning more about Anglo-Saxon England. My degree was gender in Early Modern England.

My politics are #Anarchist #IntersectionalFeminist #AntiRacist etc. Still have masses to learn, particularly with unlearning #WhiteSupremacy, #Abelism, #Fatphobia etc. Very much a work in progress.

Boringly white cishet. She/They pronouns. #TransRights!

It's an emu chick.

how to celebrate #AutisticPrideDay:

• stop making so much noise all the time
• leave us alone, we're trying to get some dang work done
• don't accidentally give any money to Autism Speaks, it's a hate group
• ban ABA
• fuck the police

Anyway here's some wild tomatillos from our garden. We didn't plant them but they're doing really well. We've also got cherry tomatoes and peppers galore AND three years after planting the vines we're getting teeny tiny but very sweet little red grapes 🍇

💜 Non-binary does not necessarily mean androgynous
💛 It's okay to question your gender identity
🤍 It's okay if your pronouns change
🖤 Your feelings are legitimate

It occurs to me that the reason it's so easy to think about how we would re-write/re-tell a certain story (say, a given Star Wars movie) is that we've already had a lot of the work done for us. A big part of drafting is making versions of the story you then change. By working from what is, to our view, a bad draft, we only have to worry about the changes and not making it from whole cloth. That energy has been spent for us.

"Bad guys are fat" internalizes as "fat people are fat because of their moral shortcomings" and it reinforces itself and we get a new cycle of judgement.

Here is the proper way to boost something that needs a content warning and doesn't have one:

1. open the post
2. copy its url
3. paste the url into a new post
4. add a brief description of the content at the link
5. send
