Vixen. Genie. Vixdjinn!

Hi! I'm Phorm, and I'm a Vixdjinn!

A Friendly Vixdjinn Says Hello!

I'm a genie girl, who really likes being a genie, and really likes everything about genies (really)! I'm a bit confused, lost, and trying to find my way, but I always enjoy interacting with folks here. (Trans🏳️‍⚧️, occasionally NSFW, Be 18+ or please be gone.)

I think the site is buckling under the weight of the news, and the traffic it has brought in. Asks are not working properly, and I can barely post. However, I've seen your asks, I promise!

The most frequent one I've seen is: Where will I be next?

I just don't know, to be honest.

I'll post something more thoughtful when the dust has settled. This whole thing has me in knots, and I feel like there's not much room for me anywhere else. I'm not sure if this is the death knell for my writing, my projects, and my online presence. I have to figure that out.

However: I can at least say that in the meantime, a reasonable backup for finding me is over on Mastodon. (Edit note: If you want to follow me there, please be sure to DM me on the platform! I try to keep my follow list under control and free if bots, so I have to manually approve each user. If I don't recognize your username or avatar, I might not let the request through). It isn't an exhaustive backup of what I have here, but it does have some of it.

I will continue to try to post here until the lights go off. When I have a better idea of where I can even go, I'll make it known here, and over on Mastodon. In the event that the bottom falls out here before the end of the month, I guess Masto will be the only place I can send a signal.

Terribly gutted about this. I wish I had magic enough to make it better.

Ah. It's a shame that things are ending like this!

I had a hard time coming to terms with how much I fixated on genies. Your account/general presence helped me reconcile with that a little. I don't think I view them as sexually. But, it was nice to see a kindly trans woman confidently post about it online. Helped me internalize that it's just a pleasant fantasy shared by people wanting to make the most of it, baggage be damned.

I apologize if this is a lot to open up about to someone who is still extensively a stranger. My tendrils on the internet are short and stubby, there's no guaranteeing that I'll be able to follow anyone from cohost anywhere else I don't already.

It's been fun.

I'm emotional over the whole thing. I felt like I was finally finding my niche...

But goodness, friend, thank you for the kind words. I'm just a silly thing that really, really loves genies - But if anything I did was in any way beneficial or helpful, I'm so happy that's the case and I only wish you more luck and goodness. I'm sorry if I added to any of that baggage at all, but rest assured, genie-ness is just... it's a lot to me. It means a lot, and it's more than just one thing.

Even if we don't cross paths elsewhere, I'm going to keep being a vixdjinn. I hope you'll keep wishing <3

An option that's a bit further out of the mainstream that's been floating around is Dreamwidth. Bit like livejournal from what I hear. Long form posting and it seems to have been built in response to LJ bringing in NSFW content censoring. Just throwing it out there.

Cohost is, in a certain way, where I came into existence. Learned so much about myself and met so many interesting and wonderful people here. I think saying I will miss it would be an dreadful understatement. We'll find our way though.

I'll be looking for where you wind up pal. 😌🤙

Reeeebaaaaa ;.; Reba I never would have met you without CoHost, and you've done so, so, so much for me. Every comment you've given me, every post you've made. You're a joy and a tremendously wonderful person, and I'm so happy to consider you a friend. And I'm terribly torn up to even consider losing contact with you!!

Dreamwidth is absolutely a platform I'm considering. The format does seem to make it well suited to writing, after all! But the lack of 2FA is a big deal to me - And honestly I'm not even sure what I'd do over there would be welcome or wanted. I still need to mull it over, though, because there are a lot of good points to consider in favor of the platform.

Still!!! I sure don't want to lose contact with you. ;.; Thank you ever so much for bringing light, happiness, and toonish wonder to this platform. And my inbox and timeline!

TTuTT I feel the same way. You've brightened my days so much friend, and I also can't imagine losing contact. After I back up my stuff here I'm going to be looking into bluesky and Dreamwidth myself (at least to have a temporary base of operations), but I'm gonna send you a private ask so you have information that'll ensure we don't lose contact <3
