Social Media Rebuilding
Haven't been on here for ages since I haven't really been in the mood to do any kind of "long form" writing this year (fiction or otherwise) and I've mostly just fallen further into Chinese gacha game addiction (to be specific Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail, and Wuthering Waves... though I have sunk a decent amount of time into a few others that aren't part of my daily rotation).
Joined the flow of people leaving the social media platform formerly known as Twitter for Bluesky, and mostly hoping this transition takes (though I think Twitter's death will ultimately be more gradual than people would like to admit.) Bluesky isn't perfect but it's leagues ahead of the other new social media projects that have come out in the years since Tumblr's original NSFW ban. Right now I'm still in the process of following as many people I already follow(ed) on Twitter there, though I know with every social media migrations some connections are inevitably lost no matter what. I started using Tumblr again a few months ago after a break, and it struck me how many people I was active mutuals on there with back in the day are no longer active on the site, even if their blogs still exist.
I'd like to get back to using this site more too, especially since it feels less unmoored than other social media does in wake of the events of a couple weeks back. I also think getting back into longform writing in general would be good for me, since lately I've been lacking any kind of fulfilling creative outlet.
In the meantime, you can find me on Bluesky here.
