harassment
That dude persistently sending me hate images followed me to mastodon and is now sending me them here. I hate this so much. I just want that fucker to stop. It's really hurtful to see vile, vile hate images sent to me especially when it's about a topic I care about. Being an otherkin isn't a joke, it's a serious part of my identity and it's hard to do awareness about it when I receive such hatred.

It's hard enough a vocal activist on a topic so few people know anything about. Combine that with getting sent hatred every single day and I'm just. Tired. Really really tired.

@BinaryVixen899 report their ass, tbh
@Thaminga @BinaryVixen899 they'll just make a new account
@BinaryVixen899 @BinaryVixen899 @Thaminga it's worth it regardless to make the instance moderators aware of the problem; they take stuff like this very seriously and will absolutely do everything they can for your benefit

@BinaryVixen899 Please report them. I can confirm the admins here take this seriously. Awoo has active admins and a strong stance against harassment. You have people here who will help.
@literorrery @BinaryVixen899 I understand it will be take seriously. The thing is this dude will just get a new account.
@BinaryVixen899 That may happen. And we can report again. And I know that's exhausting. I'm so sorry. Nobody deserves to be treated that way.
@literorrery Thank you so much for your sympathies Buni. It means a lot, seriously. When this stuff happens on a daily basis it’s tiring, and it’s incredibly powerful to hear support and people acknowledging how tiring this is.
@BinaryVixen899 The world has proven itself to be full of unkindnesses. It's up to us -- all of us, together -- to prove that it is not the world which is unkind, but those who choose to hurt others for no reason other than they can. This should not be our legacy.
There is plenty for all.

Like I'm already fighting an uphill battle when it comes to openly being myself about this stuff because there are still people on the left who think that anti otherkin jokes are harmless or funny and a lot more people who don't get that this is a real thing ppl go through.
