in my continued quest to help people in fandom make their own personal independently hosted websites, i've created a list of website resources specifically catered for fannish & creative hobbyists!
link: https://kingdra.net/fan/resources
this isn't just a list of resources, but specifically consists of FUN things you could add to your website, in addition to tried and tested options for necessary resources.
this list is made specifically for you if you want to:
a) enjoy your time on the internet beyond social media
b) explore the smaller, non-corporate web like in the old days, before social media
c) or just craft your own personalized website (FOR FREE!!!!), which i promise is much more accessible than it may seem
this page will be continuously updated, but my standards for what goes on it are very specific and limited, so don't expect to need to keep up with it regularly. everything on here is a great starting point no matter how much knowledge/experience you have. AND it consists of additional toys and resources for people already with websites.
be free and have fun!
(and remember, sharing is caring ♥️)

"Why is the world [western governments] all of a sudden trying to control us with mass surveillance?"
It's not all of a sudden. They've been trying to do this for years.
And people have been fighting it, for years. People have also been warning you, for years.
You were warned that Net Neutrality was super important. You were warned that COPPA and KOSA weren't what lawmakers said they were. People tried to tell you that banning apps would set dangerous precedent for the internet, and that they'd be coming for your VPNS. People tried to tell you that big tech companies trying to block ad-blockers and selling your data were bad things. People even tried to tell you that it was weird for supermarkets to be collecting mass amounts of data from your purchases to advertise to you, and that it was super weird for places like Walmart to need facial recognition cameras on top of that. You just didn't listen.
And you didn't push back.
And now we're here.
That said, boycott any site that wants you to upload your ID- for the love of the gods don't give them that shit it WILL get hacked/sold- and make some noise about this bullshit. We need to make it clear that we won't just lay down and take this.

Shout out to all the Black ppl that can no longer participate directly in the fandom they love because of the stresses of racism 👍🏾 you contain multitudes of value and I'm sorry that the color of your skin and the power of your voice makes people not want to acknowledge that.

I see a beautiful gay man in the park and I say, "That man has my body". (...) I felt like a gay man in a woman's body. I knew when I was young, about twenty-four, that I wished I was a gay man. That was a common fantasy of mine. I felt that the physical response I had to men must mean I’m like a gay man. I identified with the way gay men talked about other men. I felt like an imposter as a woman. - Anne Rice, The Roquelaure Reader

don’t abandon joy because it is brief. don’t commit to solitude because happiness is fleeting. it’s okay that good things do not last forever. it’s okay to simply enjoy a thing for as long as you have it.
