You cannot ban me in a way that matters.
I currently have a survey ongoing that’s a part of my series of map community demographic surveys. You can take this survey here. After several months I will close it and publish it with a recap of the results over the years.
Half a year ago I made a post titled “Contact discourse basics”, which was meant to provide a reference for how I understand contact stances and how I believe they should be used. I mentioned briefly that these terms have a completely different usage on contemporary Tumblr. I clashed with a cluster of Tumblr users…
Tonight I closed the survey I ran for the most of summer. It is the 4th survey in its series, the previous ones, dating 2018, 2020, and 2022 can be viewed on my older blog post. This year I attempted some modifications – I separated the gender identity question and the assigned gender question and…
I’d like to preface this text by saying that I don’t believe youth liberation itself to be so strongly tied to contact discourse that talking about it should immediately invoke that discourse and prompt the speaker to identify their stance. Neither any stance by itself, without any wider context clarifying what exactly the person wants,…
Mapness as an identity Analyzing mapness as a deviant identity requires, first and foremost, establishing that it is an identity. An identity is something that can take a double meaning. It is both a state of being a certain kind of a person/having certain features and the act of including oneself in a certain group,…
Radeviance is a political and philosophical concept I co-authored on one of my Tumblr blogs. This blog has high chances to be suspended, so I’m transferring relevant posts here now.

When I first wrote my principles of activism, I did not have a clear picture of what to do with it, but eventually we made a forum, based on them. The first project we picked up is analyzing studies that Newgon cites on their research page in defense of youth age gap romantic/sexual involvement. Analysis…
This is a restored post from my WordPress. Originally posted on November 30, 2021. I still agree with everything I said here. If you spent at least some time in the map community, you probably saw this image at least once. Sometimes it is used as an argument that being a hebephile is actually “normal”,…
I will preface this text by saying that I am a paraphiliac (including map + zoo), transid (including transage), pro consang, and multiple other things that are grouped under “radqueer” by those who do use this term. I also do not have a problem with those who describe their individual paraphilias as queer. The term…
Several months ago I started working on principles for my own activist group I hope to have. It would be the first time I actually participate in any organized political work, as opposed to doing something on my own or co-working with other m/yaps apolitically (nnia administration, etc.). Even though I want to do m/yap…
