i am now on a self-imposed annual socials shutdown(ASS, and yes, i know,

but it served its purpose) on my LETHALLY-FREQUENTED platforms such as facebook and instagram. ive deactivated those accounts for a set amount of time(this year, it’s gonna be a month before christmas)

the only forms of “socials” i have for comms purpose are imessage and whatsapp. i kept my twitter account active cuz it’s the only platform i thought that has relevance in terms of getting to know what’s going around the world in real time.

also, this is a third acc that ive created after a public, humiliating meltdown on the first, and wanting to run away from people who were a part of my past. this account was created(to the best of my ability) in total privacy. the only people i know personally in this app are

my lil sis, who knows what i tweet on a daily basis, and understands the fact that just bc she relates to something that ive tweeted/rted, she doesn’t have to always “react” to it. we coexist peacefully without the need to engage in each other’s posts.

it’s like, “oh, okay so this is whats going on and what youre feeling right now/or not feeling right now, or maybe totally unrelated to whatever you’re going thru right now and i get it. i know ure gonna get thru this!”, without actually having to say it. bc my lil sis and i-

we’re way past that “needing to keep the comms honest and direct and frequent...” shit. and i am lucky to be one of those people in this earth to have a lil sis like her.

and then another person is my bestfriend from boarding school. haha.

okay, so we’ve had so many history together, and we’ve always joked about it “me being the perampas of his flings” and him being the “redha” one

we coexist in this plane just like how i am with my sister.

the rest of the followers? i dont know them, and the ones ive followed? well, to me, they’re the ones i like to assume that theyre in this universe of mine, like, strangers i like to know what’s going on in their lives.

it’s just like how taylor wrote about 𝚌𝚊𝚛𝚍𝚒𝚐𝚊𝚗, 𝚊𝚞𝚐𝚞𝚜𝚝, and 𝚋𝚎𝚝𝚝𝚢: characters with their own stories in a different world.

so, back to the first post of this thread.. outside of the annual socials shutdown, everytime taylor or blackpink announced something big on their socials, i would find myself be doing that too. like, taking screenshots, reposting tweets, arranging photos to make a collage

and then some witty caption/reactions and then i would proceed to share them across all platforms, with different commentary on each one of them

it gave me a sense of thrill and excitement. i would say that i am doing a better promo than some stans

and i always felt this need to educate people especially when it comes to taylor swift and blackpink.. but yea, mostly for taylor cuz ive been following her career since 2009. that’s why i would curate my posts differently on each platform,

trying to find the terms and phrases that would suit the audience of my viewers. child... thats how ive kept myself busy even when i was still in university. working had seen some decline in activity but now that i am on holiday until next year... ive indeed, been busy.

but thankfully the advent season is almost here, and ive decided to start it a week earlier this year. it’s been almost two weeks since i went radio silent from posting incessantly like i always did. a few days after ive stopped from posting

(it was the week blackpink released their limited edition of lightstick, and taylor on rolling stone, as well as taylornation with pinterest...child, i WAS busy

), i finally deactivated my fb and ig accs.

and then a week later a friend of my texted me and asked “did you delete your acc??? ive tried to tag you but ur username didnt come up

“ and then i explained her my sitch and thankfully she understood, although i think she kinda felt hurt cuz it was her birthday

and i played a part in the surprise so she wanted to tag me in her video post but since i aint on ig no more for the entirety of advent season, i guess that’s no longer and option. well, at least she sent me the video. and it made me happy watching it! maybe i’ll post it on xmas

but for now, i just wanted to say that i have watched #folkloreOnDisneyPlus

without promo, texting my fellow swifties, constant, endless strings of posts on different social platforms but instead, enjoyed the whole thing in the comfort of my bedroom on a rainy and cold day,

wearing my favorite cardigan, and a selection of teatime snacks.

i am looking forward to watch the movie again later.
