1. if you'd like to get in touch or stay in touch with me personally, my discord and email address are in my profile links for logged-in users. i'm not amazing at one-on-one conversation, but i'd still like to talk nonetheless. if you have a discord server you want me to join, i'd probably be happy to lurk there if i can make space. and i'm always happy to get email!
2. if you just want to see where i'm posting, i have a new website with an rss (actually atom but whatever) feed at https://twotwos.nekoweb.org. i cannot guarantee i'll do anything with the website itself even though i really really want to, but i can promise that if i do sign up for some other public social media, be it mastodon, spacehey, plurk or schlaugh,* you will be informed of it in that feed. either that or the feed becomes my new cohost timeline.
   *i am only seriously considering two of these sites right now, but i'm not sure which.
3. my posting on here has already gotten a bit more erratic. if you want to share private profile links with me without getting a million drafted shares in your timeline, follow @twotwo, my side page which will never post.
4. special post 1: shoutout to the other birds and bird-like creatures on here. you are especially encouraged to get in touch if you're comfortable to. (if someone starts an "avians of cohost" or similar discord server or webring or anything of the sort, let me know!)
5. special post 2: i buried this earlier but then realised i want people to see it. however, it will be deleted before the website is archived. special post 2 has been deleted. the curious may still be able to find it. you may also ask me what it was.

previous website pinned, previous "where to find me" pinned

I have (unfortunately) made a large number of posts, some of which are good enough to justify reading back, but which aren't all easy to find. Listed here are more-or-less the ones that are long, took me a good amount of effort, or aren't easily found through tags. These are not my best posts because all of my good ones are like two sentences long. Within each category, they're listed approximately in order from oldest to newest.
