#i hate social media

[isthedogawolfdog]

Anyone else feel like those posts about “skinwalker spotted in (insert any area)” are harmful to literally everyone or is that just me.

Out of the many reels/tiktoks that pop up on my feed (much to my chagrin might I add) it’s almost always a severely sick or injured animal that’s showing some sort of distress or symptoms of whatever disease they’re suffering from.

I ALSO want to mention about how it makes me a bit uncomfortable because aren’t skinwalkers like, a part of indigenous culture, and the internet is, once again, trying to take it and spin it in a different view or something. I’m not an indigenous persons so if I have the wrong idea please someone let me know. Either way I’m not vibing with those posts.

Aaaaaand tumblr looks like its nuked the animation I did. Im not surprised, but I am still disappointed. Whatever.

I cannot set a foot into an Instagram post about Star Wars, Dungeons and Dragons or Warhammer 40k without a literal landslide of 40 year old manbabies crying about strawmen and acting like queer people and women haven't been a cornerstore of fan communities since the 50s

I mentioned RH project i'm working on, i thought i'll keep it a secret until i'll have something meaningful to show, but it's pretty big and my brother liked it so have some CGs.

取り組んでいるリズ天プロジェクトについて話した。何か意味のあるものを見せるまでは秘密にしておこうと思ったのが、それはかなり大きなもので、兄が気に入ったので CG をいくつか用意した。

some of you dumb f*cks harassed Charlie Vickers so bad he deleted his instagram, congratulations you ruined what could have been a nice experience for everyone involved! you need to understand actors are HUMAN BEINGS leave them the f*ck alone they don't owe you anything!! get off your high horse, they don't know you (and you most certainly don't know them) and if they do now, they probably think, rightfully so, that you are just a bunch of assholes. LEAVE. THEM. ALONE. and don't go after their loved ones either istg some of you deserve to learn the consequences of your actions the hard way, what is wrong with you???

leave Charlie alone, leave Robert alone, and leave Morfydd alone as well, she's not a doll for you to play with, you don't get to demand that REAL PEOPLE not fictional characters get together or whatever little fantasy or yours it is this week, you're just being creeps and you're ruining it for the respectful fans

do us all a favour and go to therapy instead

I know mermay is over but, I finished this and I am proud and I forget to post things on my socials because low-key I hate them all. You know what not low key, high key. I don't mean the people on the platforms.

I wanna be this Manatee.

Oh also my boss at a spa said I can make art and sell it in the shop we have. I hope that is true.

[valeriesrevenge]

I am sick of social media and having my irl friends and family be able to see what I’m commenting or liking on Instagram or threads or meta or whatever. It used to be a little more private than that. Oh my god. It’s so humiliating.

this one's for my homies that hate the internet

[robinthetiredartist]

I know for a fact this isn’t going to get any attention, Because algorithms are annoying. But, I’m out of options and I’m finding I can’t get much traction for my art anywhere else. So, Here we go.

I really want to start showing off my prettier art pieces that I’m proud of! This definitely being one of them! I recently found the musical based on the original novel and I absolutely fell in love with it. The characterization, the twists and turns, things that were changed, it was beautiful. In the end I decided: “fuck it I got spare time, imma make a spin off story centered around the ending” so I did just that. And as a result, My Dead Beating Heart was created. A Tragic yet beautiful side story about Frankenstein’s creature (Adam) and a Terminally ill woman (Rose). Taking place a while after the ending (of which I’ve seen). They spend the story discovering the beauty in life and death, and how looks are not to be the judge, but the heart.

I ain’t spoiling nothing else tho, soooooo enjoy!

>announcement of twitter supposedly improving algo to boost "smaller accounts"

>person QRTing with a cheerful message has 5k followers

WHAT EVEN IS SMALL IN THIS DAY AND AGE LMFAO

I think you're not even considered human on twitter if you have under 1k followers lol

It can be hard to feel pretty sometimes when the current beauty standard is only obtained through lip fillers/fillers/botox and plastic surgery

[themerrywick]

Hey there! My name is Sam and I'm a candle maker with my own shop called The Merry Wick! I create scents inspired by music and stories whether they be from movies, shows, or books. I get pretty deeply attached to my favorite things and always want to experience them to the fullest extent, hence turning those favorite things into scents! Like 99% of Small Businesses right now, I am super frustrated and discouraged by standard social media, and as a person I am so incredibly exhausted by it. Every day I think about just deleting Instagram ( I already deleted TikTok ) but if I want to have a small business it doesn't feel like it's an option.

I know the middle ground is just to fix my relationship with social media, but since my business is small, I work alone from home and it is the closest thing I have to every day socialization as well. I'm trying to find a space that works for me, where I feel connected and can share the things I create, but not feel like i'm drowning. I'm not sure if that space exists, but heres to trying! ❤️

Is it just me, or has other people's Twitter(I am not calling it "X" or whatever the fuck Elongated Msukrat wants it to be named or something no matter what. Lmfaoooo he can suck my fat throbbing and imaginary girl dick)been really...garbage at recommending them tweets and stuff related to what they're actually interested in lately?I know social media algorithms are probably always exploitative and shit because capitalism but maybe I'm just now noticing??I don't know they feel more put of place and negative than usual(To be fair, Twitter is sorta a form of "digital self-harm" or at the very least self-triggering for me but who cares?:P)Its not like I even want to be on the annoying blue bird app anyways but for some reason constantly arguing with people in a morally-righteous way and being upset and scared all the time when I'm on there...it feels really good at the same time??I don't even know anymore sorry if my explanation doesn't make sense, are there any psychological studies on why this happens?(That sounds dumb, sorry for being an idiot but I'm genuinely curious).
