Disappointed.

Account archive downloaded.

This account will not be deleted. It will remain as a forward to my new account until Snouts itself is shut down.

Account archive requested and processing.

Will link new account after midnight, my local time.

I have taken a metaphorical machete to my followers/following counts in anticipation of moving my account. If I did not recognize someone at a glance, their account was removed.

If you believe you have been removed from either of these in error, please DM me.

Well, that all escalated fucking quickly.

I harbor no ill will towards anyone on Snouts. Only disappointment, confusion, and frustration.

I will take the next few days to strip my followers/following counts of people I don't actively speak with, or whose accounts have gone unused for over a year.

On the 16th I will perform an archive export, and move to a new instance after making a followers-only post announcing where I will be moving to.

I am going to be very paranoid.

@kat incidentally, I'm glad I was checking my DMs when you posted that.

given the current global sociopolitical climate and the habits of people, the urge to agree with the surface-level premise of that meme complex is high when one is not aware of its brutally shitheaded depths.

as I have said before, you are one of the few non-juggalo clowns I am not automatically suspicious of.

@kat The alt-right thing is a meme complex called "clown world," and it was an attempt to mainstream a shitload of barely-coded racist language into internet cultures. The best summary of it is by Vaush, someone whom I do not find entertaining, and is available on Youtube. The video is over an hour long, but a few minutes ought to be enough. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cscP830j2KA

As you're a wet clown whomst pokeball, the odds of you being mistaken for That Sort Of Asshole are low to nil.

@kat I 1000% get you there, sometimes prefixes, suffixes, or entire words just lend themselves to linguistic shenanigans and your brain does the thing inside your skull before realizing the implications of saying it in the Outside Of Skull voice, and you just kinda go "yeah okay best not say this one" while giggling internally. 👍
@kat a note of caution: this could be considered deeply racist out of context. (source: I was a teenage shitlord whomst did things like that on purpose when amongst other shitlords to fit in.)

As for why I'm back before the seven days I mentioned earlier were up: I overheard someone mention Snouts was closing, and I had to check that rumor before reacting.

I did not anticipate it to have been an actual announcement.

We now return to your regularly scheduled radio silence.

"The Alt-Right Playbook: The Ship of Theseus" by Innuendo Studios.

I phrased it the way I did in the CW because it's not just the alt-right that does this, and I share it because knowing how it works gives you a better chance of avoiding falling for it.
