A Sylph Shoe Seal from the manga series 'Witch Hat Atelier.' It is a circle with triangles and arrows lined along the inside. In the middle are 3 half-circle lines on both sides and swirls that form a sort of S-shape. Hovering over it rotates it slightly.

dni - (as in intentionally interacting with me, engaging with my content, or finding my stuff, to harass me with your shit)
bigots/zionists, queer exclusionist/fetishist, sexualizes/fetishizes rape, incest, children, feral animals/proship/deaddove, glorifies sh/ed, makes fun of people’s appearances, uses 'fat' as a negative term or calls people “biggie/big back,” jutty taylor/bear ghost/zeal+co supporters, current harry potter fans, says or calls other people the r slur (cannot be reclaimed), uses the f/t slurs as slurs (as in not reclaimed), constantly makes blatantly offensive/insensitive jokes, makes incest jokes, or simply unwilling to respect tone indicators, triggers, boundaries, & the needs of myself and others
personal boundaries
please give me a heads up if you need to talk about or share something with any of these: depictions of v*mit (emetophobia, i can't do visuals/audio), animal cruelty (including bugs, please don't tell me to kill them especially for no reason ??), realistic graphic/violent imagery/death (esp. hanging), any other sensitive or disturbing topics.
please don’t go turning things i say nsfw when a situation has absolutely nothing to do with that (and i don't mean when i say something that sounds sus, i mean making my birthday a sexual thing including using my family), or make sexual comments about me physically. me being aroflirt does not mean you can just flirt with me on the internet unprompted as a complete stranger and/or if your intention is to enter a relationship with me.
don't feel like you can't ask questions (e.g. about me being trans). as long as you're coming from a genuine place, i am always happy to discuss & answer questions about different topics. but don't turn it into an unsolicited debate, thank you :-)
notes
i have ocd, social anxiety, a reading disorder, rsd, executive dysfunction, and i'm probably audhd too. my memory is shit. i forget things a lot, and words are hard. i rely super heavily on emojis/emotes (visuals) to express how i feel over text, so when i don't have access to that, it can be hard to communicate properly. feel free to use tone indicators if you need with me !
i often need further clarification on things to make sure i'm doing them correct or understanding, especially if i'm not familiar with it. please try to explain things in full and understand if i ask a lot of questions it’s because i want to make sure i'm doing it right and keeps me from feeling anxious and overthinking.
i don't do well with, nor do i like most, small talk (whether that be irl, in a game, a chat, or msgs). please don't expect me to always do the "hi how are you i'm good how are you i'm good" thing. also, if we don't know each other, i'm probably not gonna be messaging you regularly. executive dysfunction makes it hard to msg people in general (even if i know you) as well.
i'm bad at explaining things in the moment so if you want to know my important political/social standings and beliefs click here :-)

thoroughly elaborating on the dni for anyone who's confused or doesn't know what terms i said mean

queer exclusionist/fetishist
chasers, referring to seeking trans people (or anyone) out specifically due to fetishizing our lives/bodies, fuck off
fujoshi/himedanshi - a girl who specifically consumes gay media / a guy who specifically consumes sapphic media. that is NOT saying you can't enjoy queer media unless you're queer, or can't like queer ships/art/etc., it's calling yourself a separate term just because you consume media with queer people that's weird as fuck. idfc if you're also queer, it's gross. and there is a huge double standard with straight men doing this vs women.
if you're a terf, transmed, or otherwise exclusionist, fuck off entirely. as long as the terms someone is using are coming from a genuine place of trying to understand themselves and find the words to describe abstract feelings we cannot fully understand, i do not care. don't have dysphoria but get euphoria from being referred to as a different gender identity? trans man but like your chest? nonbinary but don't present androgynously, or call yourself gay/lesbian? neopronouns or xenogenders? he/him or transmasc/man lesbian? microlabels? hell yeah !!! you're all cool as fuck !!! we are all queer, they hate us all the same, and i love all of you dearly !!!
proship/profic/comship/darkship/dead dove/anti-anti/shotacon/lolicon/zoo/etc.
i don't give a fuck what you call yourselves, you're all gross. you can argue all you want that profic/ship just means you don't "harass people over fiction and ships" (not only do y’all do that all the time, but that still doesn't address the point lmao) but y'all are in the same boat as the people who fetishize pedophilia and child characters, incest, rape, & bestiality because it's all under the same logic of "it's just fiction." anyone who does rape roleplay, call it what it is not that stupid ass cnc oxymoron) can fuck off too, i don't want you rape fetishizers interacting with me. totally fine to like creatures that don't exist in the real world where you can apply your own logic to them, or even just personified creatures, but ignoring a specified inability to consent (i.e. "ferals" or anything that isn't intentionally anthropomorphized) is gross as fuck and i don't want you creeps anywhere near me either. do the harkness test if you have to. weirdos who feel the need to call themselves "dead dove" because they can't write about dark themes normally fuck off too, i hate y'all just put proper content warnings and don't fetishize shit.
of course it's okay for dark topics to exist in fiction, in fact it's necessary. bad things exist, they need to be talked about, and there is nothing wrong with taking an interest in dark or depressing themes, macabre, horror, etc. the point is that fiction does not exist in a vacuum and intent is everything. how does said media effect society? are you trying to tell a story about abuse and convey a message? or are you just drawing fanart shipping a rapist with their victim because you find it hot? fiction does effect reality, no matter how much want you want to deny it. how do you feel about how gta handled homophobia and transphobia? is bigotry in roleplay okay just because it's fictional? pedophilia roleplay (not agere)? do you think that's a healthy coping mechanism? what is propaganda? if you're excusing these because it's "just fiction" you're insane and/or a bigot, otherwise you admit that these concepts are not okay to fetishize just because it's fictional. because they don't exist in a vacuum, they're not unrealistic or fantasy ideas or scenarios, they are the same ideas of real-world concepts like bigotry !! rape, incest, and pedophilia are also real-world concepts !! they’re not genres or kinks, they’re real (and unfortunately common) forms of abuse !! i cannot stress enough the point that they don't exist in any other contexts but themselves. there is also a conversation to be had about the way violence/misogyny have been normalized under the guise of "kinks."
and fuck off with any attempt at saying this shit is fascistic, the FUCKING AUDACITY to try and compare thinking fetishizing this shit is disgusting to censorship of media i'm fucking baffled. sorry, hating your rape fanfic is not the same as bigots calling all queer work pornographic and attempting to whitewash and erase history, or the government and payment processors trying to control what we see (read this tweet for my pov). without being too tmi for my comfort in here, i am by no means anti-kink in general lmao (i wish calling yourself a "freak" or "weird" didn't have an association with the creep shit). not anti-fetish either, i don't really care about obscure fetishes in general, as long as it doesn't put anyone's safety or wellbeing at risk (e.g. scat, and the former logic applies here too). but i don't wanna see any bodily shit either (e.g. vore, ovi) so keep it away from me pls lol. and if you don't tell ppl your obscure fetish is one before commissioning them? you actually suck go away.
to be fandom specific, ramyatta shippers fuck off. they were officially stated to be as close as brothers. not close friends, brothers. ignoring specified found or adoptive family for the sake of your ship is disgusting. they're also robotic, they cannot be related by blood. it's weirdly out of touch with the narrative of the game to try and use that as your logic for justifying the ship lol. i don't play genshin anymore but same goes for shipping kaeluc; no, it's not a way to hide them being secret lovers, the game portrays them as adoptive brothers regardless of translation. and same goes for making an au just to ship characters who are related (looking at you ghost fandom). you're not avoiding anything by making it an au, it's still incest and you're disgusting. extending this to optimusbee shippers. no sebpainter shit either, there's always been subtext but it's been confirmed that sebastian views painter as a younger brother (not just found family).
shedtwt
the 'shed' part means self harm / eating disorders, and the 'twt' just refers to twitter (but this applies anywhere). if you are in recovery and/or currently struggling, i empathize with you, i share your struggles, and i wish you nothing but the best. but y'all who are making accounts where you constantly share your weight, post "thinspo," shit like that? anyone who's anti-recovery? you KNOW the struggles, yet rather than finding a healthy coping mechanism, you are glorifying self harm and eating disorders into something cute and fun. you endanger people online.

if you do not align with these beliefs, you probably shouldn't interact with me or consider us friends :-)

- it is our duty as people to not only be against racism personally, but ACTIVELY anti-racist and all forms of bigotry.

- the death penalty must be abolished, not because "some people don't deserve to die," but because the government should not have control over whether someone lives or dies.

- support sex workers, not sex work. the white content creator posting on OF is not representative of sex work as a whole, most of the sex "work" globally is coercion and slavery; it is not an umbrella term. the industry is built on exploitation. please look through the @decolonizefeminism account for more about this.

- free palestine, liberation for all oppressed peoples. zionism is racism and colonialism. please check out decolonizepalestine for a good rundown on this.

- generative-ai software is not a "tool" for creatives, it is theft slop technology that is actively poisoning our minds, creativity, communities, and the environment.

- fiction does not exist in a vacuum, it is influenced by our personal views and biases, and can change how things are viewed and treated (e.g. propaganda, representation). the fetishization/sexualization of children, rape, incest, feral creatures, etc. is bad, and creating spaces where these topics are glorified and fetishized, rather than working through trauma personally in that way, is also bad. not every coping mechanisms is a healthy one, and they are not an excuse for harm either. these spaces and content (which are simultaneously adult-only but also "just fiction" and "don't affect reality") put children's safety especially at risk, and are safe havens for predators. creating content around dark topics is still necessary, and should be handled delicately with the care and respect they deserve.
     - dark romance is generally simply fetishizing misogynistic abuse toward women and normalizes it as something to be desired. women creating said content does not change the fact and them writing it should be examined for the same reason. i do not respect you if you engage with this content for the same reasons.
     - being "profic" (or any adjacent term) is not anti-censorship, and those calling themselves anti-censorship also do not care about REAL censorship from the government that has been ongoing since forever regardless. "disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed" is about imperialism, racism, capitalism, and bigotry, not your corrective rape incest fic on ao3. being "profic" or even completely anti-censorship isn't even a leftist belief. please read through this thread. the government is not going to censor your profic shit; the united states literally elected a pedophilie rapist as president lmao.
     - incest is not taboo, it's not a kink, it is abuse, and related to the idea of racial purity (aka right-wing). there is no "consensual incest." pedophilia, grooming, rape, etc. are also not taboo, they are also right-wing, and are so overly prevalent in our society, benefit the powerful, and are used as a tool to subjugate the most vulnerable.
     - no, payment processors should not be legally empowered to censor any content or platform. this is an unrelated issue.

- being vegan is great, but promoting it simply under the logic of "if you eat meat you don't love animals" is nonsensical. we should ALL work to lower our consumption of meat (and buy dairy from regenerative farms that take care of their animals), because the meat industry is incredibly destructive to the planet (and our health). i personally do not like eating meat (huge tofu advocate). but 1) indigenous communities that rely on meat are not the issue here, and 2) we cannot be supporting vegetarian/vegan indigenous people if we're not gonna focus on the issues most pressing issues within the meat industry. true veganism is not just about "animals dying for food is bad," but an intersectional issue. produce is not harvested ethically either; the true stance is an anti-capitalist one. on a related note, if you are unable to eat vegan/vegetarian except for one or two things, then do that ! i love the "vegan except for cheese" bit lmao, some is better than none !!

- speaking of "some is better than none"... boycotting is critical in fighting against fascism and the billionaire-owned megacorporations that have such a grip on our lives. no one expects perfect boycotting, no one is even asking for that; i myself have many things i cannot avoid. but boycott where you can, buy what you need, remember that boycotting (much like living more eco-friendly) is not an overnight process, and for the love of god stop going around promoting places you go to or products you buy that are giant boycott targets. boycott resources can be found here.
