A PSA wrt: blocking/unfriending/unfollowing
Pipkin
I've always been super open about the fact that I block for three things:
- untagged spoilers
- being an obnoxious twit (incl: butting into plurks that are PRO-thing and talking bout how much you dislike thing/thing is bad/no one should like thing)
- constant negativity (in my plurks, not just your own)
Pipkin
if someone's mean to me in a mutual's plurk I might make note of it, but won't block them, if someone's mean to a mutual in one of my plurks I will probably unfollow/unfriend them
Pipkin
but it's MY DASH which means I should only have things on it that I want to see!
Pipkin
so if you think that's 'petty' or 'being a tittybaby' you know where the button is, and you won't be missed.

your plurk, your timeline, your prerogative.

You've got to curate your own online experience. And if that means pruning away at the flist or blocking, so be it.

Sounds logical to me!
Pipkin
also TIL that people still use 'tittybaby' and 'not like other girls' as insults
StupidSexyV⚠der
i like 'tittybaby' as an insult but only in some contexts

Okay so... I think I saw you in that anon plurk, cus i saw a comment almost word for word this and i literally read it going "I know who that is" and now I'm cackling over it. Also still giving you ^5s
⋆。° hob °。⋆
and if it's not you it's still me over here like "This sounds like my friend and that amuses me"
⋆。° hob °。⋆
cus yeah. the list makes sense and you should take care of your timeline in a way t hat makes you happiest
Pipkin
yeah, I'm in there, though I've muted it because of the 'stop being 'I'm not like other girls'' comment that was def. derogatory
⋆。° hob °。⋆
yeah i haven't bothered to follow it after a bit and muted cus i was tired of seeing it pop up.
⋆。° hob °。⋆
so i thankfully missed that c omment
Pipkin
also my count hasn't changed, so either it was OP's non-mutual friends with that opinion, or nobody's actually that bothered by it to put their money where their mouths are.
Pipkin
(I don't usually pay attention to it, but at a time like this I sure do)

ngl, I also saw that comment and went "huh, that sounds like Sterling...." XD
Pipkin
like I said: I'm super open about what I block for
⋆。° hob °。⋆
you are, and it's refreshing
Shanzilla
Who do I have to fight
Shanzilla
but also yeah you gotta curate you timeline
Shanzilla
also I haven't heard tittybaby in so long
Shanzilla
did someone actually use that at you
Pipkin
Eh, it was just in general in the anon plurk, but multiple times and I was the only one who didn't have any 'I only block toxic people' or 'I just unfriend except for the one stalker I blocked' story
Pipkin
so while it probably wasn't directed at me, it definitely felt like it
Shanzilla
ugh valid

a few different "this u" anon plurks have crossed my dash lately and given how small my dash is I'm mostly just perplexed; y'all ok
𝕙𝕒𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕡𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤
but yeah man, smash that fucking button; you owe no one anything
𝕙𝕒𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕡𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤
the fact is, many of us are strangers to each other who are really only here to play pretend. It's not a Vast Conspiracy, it's making the choices that are good for you.
𝕙𝕒𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕡𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤
huge reason I'm not in games anymore. I got tired of writing thousands of words to Prove I'm Good Enough For The Randos to pretend to be a prettiest princess online.
𝕙𝕒𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕡𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤
(that is what an app process is, and they are never objective, and I'm le tired)
𝕙𝕒𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕡𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤
BUT YEAH, MAN.
𝕙𝕒𝕦𝕟𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕡𝕠𝕔𝕜𝕖𝕥𝕤
T H I S
Pipkin
the dissertation on why I should be allowed to pretend to be someone on the internet is the main reason I'm not in games anymore either, nor do I want to be, so yeah. I getchu
Pipkin
(and apparently no, we aren't ok, but /vague gestures at literally everything going on)
Hooded Figure
(yeah.)
