therian business, birdhell 

Honestly, lowkey amazed that the thread in which I confess to feeling basically not at all like I'm an actual human being is the one thread I make in recent days that *doesn't* make me instantly lose followers.

I mean sure, I normally post -maybe- one thing in a given day that isn't a reply to friends/acquaintances overall and most of the people dropping off previously when I started yelling about how you should just go "fuck the cops and anyone like them" for your own sake were probably just random people I never knew well who only followed me on a content basis to begin with, but.

This sure is a -massive- fucking difference from when I came out as trans back in 2014 over something that, honestly, I'd always thought would be more controversial than that.

yeah, yeah, I know follower counts don't actually mean shit and those numbers are basically only there to make you feel anxious enough to (hopefully) only ever post content the Algorithm™ likes and all, but fuckin'.

It feels like acceptance about basically all this shit has improved pretty radically over the past decade? Or maybe I just shed all the shitty people back in '14, who knows. Either way, I'm honestly glad that all got a positive reception, ahaha.
