ANYWAY, HOUSE RULES:
  1. Be over 18 before joining.
  2. We’re all adults here, so act like it. Live and let live, ship and let ship. No hate, no bigotry, none of that.
  3. All NSFW material must be posted behind a spoiler or a link, with content descriptions and/or warnings.
  4. When in doubt, lurk before posting. It’s always good to read the room and get a feel for what’s going on.
  5. No bummers. Just because we don’t have a vent channel doesn’t mean you can vent anywhere. Sorry, this isn’t really the place for that--we aren’t therapists.
  6. I, moon, reserve the right to timeout, kick or ban people for any reason even if you’re not specifically breaking the rules.

If you’re fine with the above terms, then go ahead and join! Right now accounts have to be manually approved in order to join, so please be patient (and/or contact me offsite to let me know you’ve joined) and I’ll approve you when I can.
