@iamjayrts.bsky.socialSocial media and Internet culture too often desensitize us to the humans behind the screens. I wish I knew how to make it safer and kinder. And I wish the best for Goose. I owe her everything, and I’m in her corner if she needs me.
Show PostBeing online means you get a lot of vocal people who can say and do horrendous things behind a veil of anonymity, and with no consequences for causing harm. And the reality is, the Internet is NOT reality. It’s not even “most people”. It’s a tool - and a very flawed one.
Show PostBeing a part of a work like Digital Circus has been a crash course in accepting that not everyone will like me or the things I put out into the world. Some will not forgive my failures. That’s up to them. Some won’t enjoy my work. That’s fine. Some will hate just to hate, just because that’s “fun”.

Show PostAs promised, here’s a thread of my extended thoughts on Digital Circus and its finale! I tried to organize these as best I could, but I wrote a ton so apologies if I’m rambling. Spoilers, of course, and my words are my own - not speaking for Goose, anyone at Glitch, or my castmates. Enjoy!
