Preparing to exit.
This is a newsletter alternative and connection space for writing and sharing off social media.
Currently, I am considering an exit from Instagram come late December when I am due to give birth to my first child. Right now I am experimenting with platforms such as substack to share and remain connected with the communities of folks I have had the pleasure of interacting with on social media.
I have no idea what will become of this space, but I would like to utilize it as a placeholder and liminal space in the ether that connects us all — while I figure out where and how I would like to be on the internet! It’s a wild thing.
Plants, herbalism, folk magic, animism, navigating the world as a neurodivergent person in late-stage capitalism and forging connections to the land amid such turbulent times are my focus. Oh, and eventually parenting through all that as well!
We’ll see what becomes of this space as I negotiate my relationship to social media.
Very happy to see you on Substack, yay! I quit IG - for good in 2022 and joined Substack for sharing astro writing (outside the misery box I came to feel about IG, lol) Feels like relief. I have missed your account. All the best to you in this last stretch of your pregnancy. Substack truly feels like the future.
I’ve only been on substack for like a month but I’m really enjoying it (way more than when I attempted writing email only newsletters). Looking forward to reading your longer form stuff 💛
