It wasn’t just one thing. It’s been piles and piles of stuff that’s been breaking me down and I can’t take it. I went back through about 200 pages of tumblr and unfollowed anyone who had at least two unrelated posts of a problematic nature
- racism
- sexism
- body or gender policing
- undirected or broadly directed violence/misanthropy
- support for or defense of rape culture
- homophobia/transphobia/femphobia
- CP or borderline CP
Unfortunately this meant a few good friends, and I hope when they read their e-mails they will stop to think about why it’s problematic, and why it hurts. But for today I’m just done, and want to wall off and be alone for a bit. I’ll come back to this conversation when I don’t feel completely broken and devastated.
