I have a confession to make: 

I voted for Trump in 2016, thinking that he could shake things up in Washington after Obama has failed to make promises during his second term. unfortunately, it was one of the worst decisions of my life, because his fumbling of the pandemic in 2020 nearly cost my dad's own life and he almost died of covid. That was a deal breaker for me, and I decided to vote for Biden that year, hoping for things to get better. Granted, It didn't by a whole lot, but at least we wouldn't have to deal with trump during that time (J6 aside).

Honestly, politics in America have always been an ass blast, and yesterday has only further proven that, unfortunately. 

It's why I'm leaving the country in the first place like I mentioned in my last post, which you can see here:

But on top of that, I will no longer be very active on Twitter anymore, cuz I know it's not gonna get better over there. This means that not only will I be more active on places like YouTube, Bluesky, Deviantart and Instagram (at least for the time being), I will once again be creating a new discord server. 

Now more than ever before, it is becoming more important to create a safe place, especially online, for people regardless of one's views, because we don't know what's gonna be happening to social media in the future. 

Basically, I don't care if you're a Democrat , Republican, liberal or a conservative or whatever, as long you're not an extremist or a maga cultist, you're okay on my book. 

We need to stick together and stay as strong as possible moving forward, regardless of where we live or where we're from. 

Also If you plan on leaving twitter, my new server will be open for you, regardless of whether you yourself leave America or not.

That, and I'll also be planning on opening up a patreon or a subscribestar if possible (cuz Ko-Fi ain't gonna be enough), cause I'm gonna need as much money as possible rn. I might even make my own website, but we'll have to see about that.

I hope you understand, and if you yourself are leaving the country (or a blue state), I hope we can keep in touch through the discord server or through any other websites for now. 

With that said, I'll try and open up the server as soon as possible. I appreciate all the support you've given me over these few years, and now it only makes sense to support each other to the best of our ability. 

And please stay safe out there. Get a gun or anything like that for self-defense if possible (and make sure to get some practice too lol)
