[tw: pedophilia]
(1/?)There's been a lot of people being exposed as pedos on the tl, and I thought I'd say, I support all of the people speaking out and am always here if anyone needs me. It's a good time to point out that I'm 24 yo, and I don't block ppl under 18 bc I don't
(2/?)really post nsfw stuff, and tbh don't interact a ton with mutuals (in the sense that I don't dm more than like 2 ppl) and am not really in any group chats or anything. That being said, I totally understand if my age makes any1 uncomfortable and there are no hard feelings if
(3/?)mutuals are broken or anything, kids should be protected at all costs and deserve to be online without being at risk constantly. It's worth it to say, if you're underage it's important to take care of yourself and pay attention to your activity and interactions online
(4/?)(and irl) bc not all adults have your best interest in mind. The internet enables you to meet a lot of ppl and be part of interactive communities which can be good but is of course a double edged sword when it comes to predators so really take care of yourself and learn to
(5/?)read the signs, if someone makes you uncomfortable disengage and remember you don't owe them anything, talk to adults you trust if something doesn't feel right. I know what it is to be a kid online and fortunately I've never had any bad experiences (in big part bc I've never
(6/?)been a very popular blog/Twitter/etc. In any fandom and mostly keep to myself) but I know a lot of teens grew up in this era of social media and run popular Twitters in hockey Twitter and all other areas of Twitter, and have a lot of online friends so these things happen and
(7/?)it's horrifying when they do. It's easy to want to feel mature and special but don't try to grow up too fast, ok? There's no rush and no adult should be trying to make you feel like you're older than you are. Also, yes, speak out if something really is happening,
(8/9?)make pedophiles afraid again! This got long, but in conclusion, my dms are open if anyone is going through anything, but do keep in mind I AM an adult. Stay safe, love y'all đź’š
(9/9) also, when I say kids I don't mean to be condescending, I just think it's important to keep a distinction between kids and adults but this obviously goes for teens up to 17, though even young adults should be careful with way older adults.
