(ㅤcriteria.ㅤ)
before you follow:
ㅤ➺ I talk about & rt various things incl. serious topics like my country's politics.
ㅤ➺ ESL + always sleep-deprived so posts tend to have typos & weird grammar.
ㅤ➺ mostly sfw, but can rt some mild nsfw/horror stuff.
ㅤ➺ tone may come off as harsh which i'm often unaware of.
ㅤ➺ I take interest in analyzing/critiquing media incl. own interests.
ㅤ➺ I can be quite passionate in criticizing things that stem from eurocentric / patriarchal / cishet views (irl or in fiction).
ㅤ➺ I'm very anti stan culture & parasocial relationships. I can admire some celebrities without stanning them.
ㅤ➺ I have severe anxiety & memory issues so I'm awful at replying right away.
