got suspended for what i guess was the wrong kind of leftist take on stories and the week i spent without an account changed me. (had to make a new account bc its really hard to be an artist without an insta but i’m absolutely not on it as much as i was before. i just post my shit, scroll for a sec and keep it moving.) ((i’m still itching for my old username back but need to wait a few more days for that))

hello :) it’s been a while since i’ve used this app. i decided to log back in b/c i just deactivated my social media accounts. with the tik-tok ban coming up, i made the decision to not only delete tik-tok but also twitter. fuck zuck and elon. it’s disappointing to leave behind the pockets on the internet that i considered my community.
i didn’t deactivate my insta b/c i have a ton of memories from there. i’ve been posting on insta since the 8th grade haha. so there’s a ton of sentimental stuff on there. the app is deleted from my phone and i privated it. it’ll now be like a museum/archive since i won’t use it.
i’m not anti social media myself, i love the community aspect of social media and sharing my interests with like minded individuals. hence why i returned to this app. i’ll prob post a lot more on here (or not) i’ll see. but i’m honestly getting sick of tech bros ruining things for everyone else :/

i started posting more casually on tumblr but then decided to move to instagram and it’s honestly more fun because you can actually see the layout.
lowkey a shameless plug for my insta because my old account got suspended💔

when i had to make a new instagram account a few months ago, i was a little worried i wouldn’t be able to make up the following that took years to build and i would have to start from square one with my art. it may sound silly to some, esp as i see many people here who are anti-insta (and rightfully so!) but i do rely on social media to be a slightly less starving artist. it seems with my new account i’m actually receiving way more engagement with a fraction of the followers for my art and i’m just very happy to know that my people are in fact out there somewhere and i shouldn’t give up hope.
