Here's the thing....
I have done my best to do *The Right Thing ™️* since before some of you were born. (...before some of your parents were born, even).
I have spoken out about and stood hard against hatred, abuse, (multiple) wars, dictators, "isms* (so, so many isms) fighting for and with anyone who's been victim to injustices of every kind, from the moment I became aware of them. From about the age of 9. I haven't always gotten it right but I've never been afraid to grow. Learning as I've gone along, willingly shifting my postion when new facts and information became available. Admitting when I'd gotten something wrong, apologizing when called for, making amends as needed. This is who I am. It's also how I was raised...how I've raised my children, and how they are now raising their's.
I've had multiple Tumblr blogs for I don't even know how long. Somewhere very near the beginning, from about the first or second time Tumblrfolk started threatening to delete their accounts (and still haven't) if there was one more change in format (there have been so many). And I've used them as my personal soap boxes to stand up and speak against or for the issues that affect the world. But I need to change that now. At least for a little bit.
Please understand that I haven't changed my postion on things. And know that I'm still...will always...be fighting along with you. I just won't be doing it as much here.
I need a safe space. A world full of jokes and silly stories, goofy pets and ridiculous animals. I need beautiful flower, amazing places, incredible art....all manner of things. But a lot less of the angst (no matter how justified).
I've spent 6 decades trying to look after the world. Now I need to look after me. I hope you all understand.
