warnings (here there be dragons)
+ i am a proshipper & fujoshi (and write as much smut and dead dove content as i do fluff), if any of that is morally reprehensible to you then for your peace of mind please do not interact with me
+ i have strong opinions you may find controversial, so again if that's too much for you please do not interact with me
+ i generally do not like dubs (all yugioh dubs are non-starters for me), but i do if the voice acting is actually good
+ i do not care if you hate my favs and ships, but that does not give you an excuse to spread toxic discourse. other people (including your friends) see that toxicity and are hurt by it

stances
+ i have zero tolerance for bullies and trolls
+ i am unapologetically leftist, anti-imperialist, and my bachelor's in international affairs will pop in to say hello if prompted by bullshit
+ transgender rights are human rights
+ asexuals are not 'broken' and do not owe you their bodies
+ women have the right to choose
+ democrats and republicans cannot be trusted but not voting gives a free vote to republicans so you better fucking vote
+ free palestine, muslims =/= terrorists, free ukraine, there is more than enough room for migrants
+ all firearms should be illegal
+ don't "pray for X". we're past "prayer". take to the streets in protest, donate money to causes, and engage in advocacy if you truly care
+ be cautiously optimist with a healthy dose of pessimistic skepticism. trust but verify. you are not immune to propaganda
