Greetings, Chittrers 9f Parad9x Space! While s9me 9f y9u may have f9ll9wed me here fr9m 9ther platf9rms such as #Su6stack 9r #Grum6lr (welc9me! D9 n9t share these acc9unt handles with9ut my permissi9n), I w9uld like t9 use this pinned p9st t9 f9rmally intr9duce myself t9 th9se 9f y9u wh9 are just n9w j9ining me. My name is Kankri Vantas, and in n9 particular 9rder, I am: a he/him pr9n9un user | a pr9ud 9ffspectrum tr9ll | unalive | a f9rmer mem6er 9f the f9rmer 6ef9ran s9ciety | a current mem6er 9f a dream6u66le pseud9s9ciety | v9luntarily celi6ate | quadrant agn9stic | 5 feet 4.96 inches in height | a Seer 9f 6l99d | the th9ughtleader 9f a du6i9usly successful SGRU6 sessi9n | pr9va6ly neur9typical | t9uch-repulsed | sex-repulsed | sex-p9sitive | a surviv9r 9f the 6ef9ran culling system | a resp9nsi6le gun 9wner | a signless tr9ll I am n9t: a mutant6l99d | a 6urgundy6l99d | a wriggler | cull6ait | the Signless | the Sufferer | religi9us | sexist | a gun nut D9 n9t interact if y9u meet any 9r all 9f the criteria listed 6el9w: pr9selytizers | evangelizers | pers9ns trying t9 c9nvert 9thers t9 their 6eliefs systems | Tayl9r Swifte stans | the Su6stack admin team unless it is t9 reverse my unjust 6anning | 6ef9ran cullers | Alternian cullers This Chittr page will c9ver a diverse array 9f t9pics, ranging fr9m #Aquadr9manticism t9 #Z9diarchicalAn9malies. I cann9t p9ssi6ly tag them all here s9 I will issue a 6lanket warning n9w that I will d9 my 6est t9 tag f9r p9tentially triggering as they appear, 6ut that I may err. Tread with cauti9n when viewing my pr9file, and if there is anything that y9u need tagged s9 y9u can add it t9 y9u filter list, d9 n9t hesitate t9 let me kn9w. My DMs are usually 9pen. Thank y9u f9r reading and I h9pe y9ur time here is rich with enlightenment.
F9r th9se 9f y9u wh9 are anxi9us a69ut y9ur current/upc9ming(?) pailing seas9n (th9ugh I can't imagine why; surely y9u kn9w 6y n9w it 9ccurs regularly?), I w9uld like t9 remind y9u t9 please tag any and all p9sts a69ut y9ur distress, excitement, s9licitati9ns, 9r 6argainings with #NSFW. S9me users, such as myself, are 69th disinterested in the su6ject entirely and c9mpletely exempt fr9m the practice, and thus need an 9pp9rtunity t9 filter it 9ut in their feeds s9 as t9 n9t trigger 9r 9ffend any9ne. #PailingSeas9n #PailingSeas9nMenti9n #ImpliedDr9neMenti9n ##Pail9rDie #6ucket9rSnuffIt
Th9ugh I find the existence 9f all 9f these ask-related gimmick f9rms 6eing spread ar9und t9 6e a m9ckery 9f the sacred art 9f the Tr9llcratic meth9d, n9t t9 menti9n rather self-centered and invasive, I w9uld like t9 urge any9ne still participating in this h9pefully fleeting trend t9 at least remem6er t9 appr9priately tag y9ur questi9n-and-answer p9sts f9r 9ther users t9 filter them 9ut. S9me pe9ple still like t9 use Chittr f9r its intended purp9se 9f engaging academically with 9ther likeminded individuals, and that 6ec9mes difficult t9 d9 when every 9ther p9st is 9f s9me9ne wh9 thinks their 9wn inner life is s9 interesting that they all 6ut 6eg 9thers t9 invade their privacy. F9r th9se 9f y9u actually interested in keeping Chittr a safe place, I suggest y9u add 9ne 9r all 9f the f9ll9wing tags t9 y9ur future ask-related Chitts: #Ask6l9g #QnA #AMA #AskMeAnything #InsideTh9ughts #An9nym9usAsks #TrendF9ll9wing #Engagement6aiting

T9night, I w9uld like t9 9pen up a discussi9n 9n the t9pic 9f repenting. T9 start 9ff, I w9uld like t9 pr9vide a disclaimer that, despite the religi9us c9nn9tati9n this term 9ften carries, it is imp9rtant t9 keep in mind g9ing f9rward that repentance is a wh9lly secular practice that any pers9n 9r n9n-pers9n identifying individual can participate in. I, f9r example, f9ll9w n9 religi9n 9r faith, 6ut I am a 6ig pr9p9nent 9f this idea and 6elieve m9re pe9ple w9uld 6e 6etter 9ff if they did as well. 6ut what d9es it mean t9 repent, y9u may 6e w9ndering? Well, Meriam-We6str defines repenting as "t9 feel regret 9r c9ntriti9n", 9r, "t9 change 9ne's mind". In 9ther w9rds, repentance, 9r metan9ia, means t9 rec9gnize when y9u have d9ne, th9ught, 9r felt s9mething wr9ng and t9 make a c9nsci9us eff9rt t9 change y9ur acti9ns, th9ughts, 9r feelings f9r the 6etter. If y9u want t9 lead a m9rally just life 9r unlife, as y9u sh9uld, y9u need t9 6e familiar with repenting f9r y9ur misdeeds when they 9ccur. N9ne 9f us are exempt fr9m accidentally (9r willfully) engaging in pr96lematic 6ehavi9rs, s9 when it d9es 9ccur, it's imp9rtant t9 kn9w what must 6e d9ne in 9rder t9 make up f9r said 6ehavi9rs. T9 ch99se an example that sh9uld appeal t9 the 6r9adest dem9graphic 9f Chittrers p9ssi6le, (warnings here f9r the f9ll9wing upc9ming t9pics: #NSFW #NSFWMenti9n #Impr9perSexual6ehavi9r) let's say y9u have recently engaged in an illicit dalliance with s9me9ne that y9u n9w regret 6ecause the act 9f this af9rementi9ned dalliance g9es against y9ur pers9nal c9nvicti9ns. Th9ugh this was wr9ng 9f y9u, 6ecause y9u sh9uld always stick firmly t9 y9ur pers9nal 6eliefs especially in times 9f weakness, 6y rec9gnizing that this acti9n was indeed wr9ng, y9u have already taken the first step 9n the path t9 pers9nal redempti9n. I'm s9 pr9ud 9f y9u (in a plat9nic way s9 as t9 n9t imply an unc9mf9rta6le sense 9f familiarity with y9u). Y9ur next step w9uld 6e t9 c9nfess, 9r admit t9, y9ur wr9ngd9ings t9 a trusted individual, pr9vided this individual is mentally and/9r em9ti9nally equipped t9 deal with what may end up 6eing a heavy t9pic. I rec9mmend reaching 9ut t9 a m9irail (9r a m9irailsprit, kismerail, ausprail, kismerailsprit, etc.), a cl9se plat9nic friend, a terr9rpist, an an9nym9us c9nfessi9ns 6l9g, 9r even a Chittr p9st, th9ugh wisd9m and guidance can c9me in many m9re f9rms than just this sh9rt list. In a6sence 9f any 9f the a69ve, y9u may als9 reach 9ut t9 me. As a self-app9inted and 9thers-app9inted th9ughtleader, I will 6ravely take 9n the mantle 9f 6eing a pr9ver6ial ear f9r y9u t9 c9nfess t9 if y9u have n9 9ne else t9 turn t9, 9r if I'm y9ur first ch9ice in c9nfidant, that w9uld 6e appreciated as well. Regardless 9f what f9rm it manifests, it's imperative n9t t9 let y9ur feelings 9f guilt fester, as 69ttling them up inside will weigh heavily 9n y9ur #MentalHealth. After c9nfessi9n c9mes what may 6e the trickiest part, alth9ugh I d9n't want t9 make any assumpti9ns (#Assumpti9ns) 9n y9ur 6ehalf. I 9nly say this 6ecause I kn9w a l9t 9f tr9lls with str9ng senses 9f pride that make this difficult f9r them. This is when y9u ap9l9gize t9 the 9ffended parties, if applica6le, and t9 y9urself. In 9ur given example, y9u w9uld ap9l9gize t9 y9ur affair partner that y9u have 6etrayed y9ur 9wn values 6y inv9lving them in such a salaci9us act. (If any9ne needs tips 9n h9w t9 appr9priately ap9l9gize t9 s9me9ne else f9r the err9rs 9f 9ne's ways, I will make a f9ll9w up p9st if en9ugh interest is expressed.) Remem6er that y9u are n9t entitled t9 f9rgiveness, n9r sh9uld y9u ap9l9gize with the s9le intent t9 6e f9rgiven. Y9u are d9ing it 6ecause it's the right thing t9 d9 regardless. 9nce this is d9ne, 9r if there is n9 additi9nal party y9u need t9 ap9l9gize t9, y9u can then ap9l9gize t9 y9urself. As l9ng as y9u truly 6elieve y9ur 9wn s9rr9w, y9u may f9rgive y9urself. Lastly, 6ut m9st crucially, y9u must res9lve y9urself t9 change y9ur mindset *and* y9ur 6ehavi9r and never make the same mistake twice. Th9ugh this s9unds self-explanat9ry, I'll explain it anyway f9r th9se 9f y9u f9r wh9m "self-explanat9ry" rarely ever is. What this means is f9r y9u t9 c9mmit t9 turning away fr9m the negative acti9n, th9ught, 9r feeling that y9u c9mmitted earlier and replacing the 6ehavi9r with s9mething p9sitive. In 9ur example, s9me9ne struggling with inappr9priate sexual desires might ch99se instead t9 find healthier 9utlets f9r their desires, such as ch99sing t9 9nly engage in intimate relati9ns with dedicated quadrantmates 9r a6staining fr9m all f9rms 9f sexual activity and instead channeling that frustrati9n int9 an educati9nal pursuit 9r a practical h966y like knitting. Whatever y9ur res9luti9n is, the key is t9 c9mmit y9urself t9 it s9 y9u can keep living 9r unliving y9ur life 9r unlife free 9f pr96lematic 6ehavi9r g9ing f9rward. If y9u'd like t9 kn9w m9re 9r need s9me9ne t9 c9nfess t9, feel free t9 leave a c9mment 6el9w. Additi9nally, my DMs are currently 9pen. Happy repenting, every9ne. #Repentance #Metan9ia #F9rgiveness #Guilt #Shame #Menti9ns9fReligi9n #ReclaimedTerms

I wish when I went to search my name to see if anyone had any questions for me, that it wasn't just a congreg8tion of random users listing my name on their 'smash or pass' post.
@can9nC9ntri6ut9r D9 y9u have permissi9n fr9m the su6jects 9f y9ur #Headcan9n chitts t9 6e p9sting a69ut them? If n9t, I w9uld like t9 9ffer y9u a friendly suggest t9 rec9nsider the f9rmat 9f y9ur acc9unt t9 ensure y9u are 9perating as respectfully as p9ssi6le. 9therwise, the idea 9f accepting an9nym9us "headcan9ns" 9f 9ther pe9ple (which, if we are 6eing h9nest, is n9thing m9re than an excuse t9 make 6aseless accusati9ns 9f 9ther users and play pretend with their sense 9f self) c9mes 9ff as highly invasive, a little creepy, and even detr9llanizing, as it is 9utright implying that 9ther users are n9thing m9re than playthings 9nt9 which 9thers can pr9ject their th9ughts. #FriendlySuggesti9n #LetsKeep9urC9mmunitySafe
@tw96ulgeAtr9ci9us I appreciate the f9ll9w, Mituna, 6ut given the incredi6ly vulgar nature 9f y9ur handle, I d9n't think I w9uld 6e especially c9mf9rta6le returning the fav9r. If y9u'd like t9 6ec9me Chittr mutuals, I kindly ask y9u t9 ch99se a different handle, 9therwise, thank y9u, 6ut I will have t9 decline recipr9cati9n.
With t9day 6eing Lusus' Day and a new very vulgar and 96jectifying trend judging pe9ple 9n 9ne's willingness t9 have sex with them 9r n9t, I supp9se I was misguided t9 spend the day 9ff 9f Chittr while tending t9 my 9ther s9cial media presences. As s9me9ne wh9 cele6rates neither, I assure y9u I have a l9t 9f th9ughts, 9pini9ns, and feelings 9n the matter, 6ut preci9us little time at present t9 really dive int9 it. Instead, I'll leave y9u all with just these tw9 statements: 9ne: it is appalling h9w ign9rant s9me 9f y9u are that n9t every tr9ll grew up with a lusus. While I d9n't want t9 f9r6id any9ne f9r praising the animal that raised them in any way they see fit, I will ask y9u appr9priately tag the matter, s9 tr9lls wh9 did n9t have the luxury 9f 6eing raised 6y a n9n-tr9ll individual can 6lacklist the su6ject f9r their 9wn peace 9f thinkpan. At minimum, I rec9mmend the tags #LususDay #AllLususDay #FemaleLususDay #Lusus #Lusii t9 c9ver all 9f y9ur 6ases. Tw9: St9p putting my name in y9ur #Smash9rPass lists. Y9u kn9w wh9 y9u are. If I had the energy t9 expend t9 resp9nd t9 each 9f these p9sts directly, I w9uld. D9n't make me @ y9u.
I think I've successfully f9ll9wed every iterati9n 9f Karkat 9n this platf9rm, th9ugh if I've missed any9ne, please d9n't take it as a pers9nal slight. Just kn9w there are a l9t 9f y9u, and Chittr's search functi9nality is limited. It's a shame I c9uldn't find any 6ef9ran versi9ns, h9wever.
I am very delighted t9 see m9re acc9unts 9f alternate versi9ns 9f myself p9p up 9n Chittr t9night. I can 9nly assume it is in direct resp9nse 9f my call t9 acti9n yesterday, and if s9, I am taking this as a g99d sign that my message is reaching its intended audience. If y9u, the user reading this, kn9w 9f a Kankri in y9ur timeline wh9 d9es n9t currently have a presence here 9n Chittr, I enc9urage y9u t9 ask him (her/it/them/etc) t9 create an acc9unt and give me a f9ll9w. With y9ur help, we can create a safe space f9r all Kankris. #MyInfluence
I realized quite suddenly that I am n9t f9ll9wing any 9ther versi9n 9f myself 9n here, and n9ne 9f them are yet f9ll9wing me. As such, I've decided it's up t9 me t9 6e the 6igger tr9ll and rectify this egregi9us 9versight. T9 the Kankris reading this (and yes, that includes the Alternian 9nes): put aside whatever issues y9u have with me 9r 9ther mes and j9in me in creating a harm9ni9us Vantas unity here 9n Chittr 6y f9ll9wing me 6ack. I assure y9u *I* have n9 ill will t9wards y9u, and I trust that y9u have n9ne t9wards me. Thank y9u and y9u're welc9me.
Apparently I must make an addendum t9 my previ9us p9st. If y9u are g9ing t9 use that thread as a jumping 9ff p9int t9 wax a69ut y9ur sexual pr9clivities, at least have the decency t9 tag it as #NSFW s9 I d9n't have t9 read it. Remem6er, this isn't f9r me, this is f9r a friend. I still have n9 pers9nal interest in y9ur sex lives.
Alth9ugh I n9rmally w9uld refrain fr9m leveraging my platf9rm like this, I have 6een specially requested 6y a dear f9ll9wer and cl9se friend 9f mine t9 put 9ut s9me feelers. T9 any and all male Chittr users wh9 identify as 9ne 9f the f9ll9wing: #Gay #N9tN9tGay #H9m9sexual #H9m9r9mantic #H9m9affective #H9m9flexi6le #MenL9vingMen #MenHatingMen #MenPityingMen #MenMediatingMen #6icuri9us #6iflexi6le #6isexual #Panr9mantic6utStillAttractedT9Men #Rank6ait and anything similar. W9uld y9u 6e interested in sharing a69ut the j9urney y9u went thr9ugh t9 c9me t9 terms with y9ur r9mantic interest in 9ther men? The af9rementi9ned an9nym9us friend 9f mine is g9ing thr9ugh a similar j9urney himself, and w9uld 6e delighted t9 hear m9re 9f y9ur experiences t9 determine if this is truly a lifestyle he wants f9r himself, 6ut is t99 shy t9 c9me 9ut. Cr9nuses and 9ther Amp9ras in particular w9uld 6e m9st appreciated, 6ut he is 9pen t9 receiving all kinds. Please reply t9 this Chitt 6el9w 9r send me a DM if y9u d9 n9t want t9 exp9se y9urself pu6lically. I am grateful f9r y9ur participati9n either way.
Anyway. @aeneasCaldarium @aer9dynamicTramp I think it is a69ut time we schedule an9ther #6ef9rus69ys rec9rding sessi9n. I've recently 6een struck with inspirati9n f9r s9me supplementary materials we sh9uld c9ver in a 69nus epis9de 9r tw9. And since these w9uld 6e 9pti9nal listening t9 9ur audience, I think it w9uld 6e wise t9 rec9rd 69nus epis9des 9n 9ur 9ff-days. Like t9day. Let me kn9w when y9u're availa6le.
Ap9l9gies, 6ut n9t all 9f us can dr9p everything t9 engage in petty Chittr arguing. S9me 9f us have 6usy lives 9utside 9f s9cial media and cann9t aff9rd t9 spend every sec9nd 9f every h9ur glued t9 9ur screen 6reathlessly awaiting a resp9nse. #Vaguep9sting #6yTheWay #H9rn-SizeismIsntReal
I cann9t fath9m why pe9ple are s9 surprised t9 see me c9mment in threads where they have menti9ned me 6y name. Perhaps if y9u d9n't want s9me9ne chiming in with their 9pini9n regarding s9mething y9u said a69ut them, y9u sh9uld think twice a69ut pu6licly referring t9 them 9n a pu6lic platf9rm. #Vaguep9sting
