As odd as it feels now given what's happened to Twitter and how BlueSky started out, both of those places are where I feel the most at home, and the basic respect and care for the artwork and writing I post and why isn't anything I struggle with.

Cohost I like the idea of but if you're not part of a multiperson community that's established when you arrive or head there as a group, if you're a body that flies under the radar in the fandom like me, it might as well be a blog with a decent online word processor and posting UI and you get to watch everyone else having a really brilliant party from outside the room through a polished window.

Some of its more cliquish mechanics seem very much by design and if that's so, then I suspect it was never meant to be an open place of creative commerce and gathering if there's a mold one doesn't fit. And if you're honest about those limits you're more or less guaranteed a poor result and exclusion from the group, if you can call it that when one doesn't belong.

FA is the longest fang for me, going back to 2010 when I hopped on board the modern, online Painting Cage and in fair reckon didn't know what would be in store.

Doubt is viral, like anything else that infects the heart, and while it's good to stop by FA I don't really feel at home here anymore, and my heart's mostly moved past it being my place of power; but not the people I share space with here, mind you. You're a good, hearty friend and fellow dreamcrafter, Perry, and the friends I know who care and we care for each together, aren't remotely anything or anyone I could complain about regarding this place.

So for now, as in your choice and purpose, Hadjet and Perenthis, Twitter and BlueSky will remain my heart and home. We're friends on Discord, of course, and we're more than able to get in touch on Telegram if we choose but Discord at the moment is where we both seem to prefer that multimedia and text-based discourse.

It does have a very broad range of open, malleable real estate and territory, which I rather think someone who is as big as you and your feet per step cover in stride and footsole overlap, you relish and enjoy as much as I do. And I don't argue with the reasonable reckon of a friend, even if I might uniquely argue the point and have a goddess' ear and respectful, noble attention if a tiny speck like me has something important to say to a teramacro felinoid divinity with feet that could snuff out a thermonuclear cascade detonation- harmlessly, to her- then simply chide the bugs she can comfortably see but happily notice squirming briefly underfoot in feeling by their lack of novelty in welcome.

At least I know where my friends are, as I have no doubt you do likewise, goodcat Perry. So I think we're both fine with and as that for now. Thanks kindly for the update shared, and please be good to yourself and yours in the meantime; I'll make sure I do the same.
