he/him, 21 [01-05-2000], gay
mixed white-passing jew of russian extraction (eng+rus ok)
goth, history student, haterlikes:
might specifically talk about: vampires, goth music, not goth music (the mountain goats; last.fm), fashion, aviation, hating capitalism, drag reality tv, art, writing, literature (fave: frankenstein), tabletop rpgs, media but not much (currently league of legends, wizard101, and fallen london, occasionally shows or films), history, campy horror films (letterboxd), just sort of funny thingsi have a tendency towards drytyping but i probably don't hate you. on that note i usually exist in bursts and then vanish for periods. despite this i'm fairly friendly, i think.also please for the love of all that is holy dont be 'jokingly' mean to me unless we're friends thank you.
consider this secret, this hidden thing. look at it from all angles. see how it gleams in the pale gaslight.
about
My name is konstantin but most of my friends call me kostya. some people call me other things, namely 'lime'.
My pronouns are he/him or it/its. in russian, my pronouns are он/его.
I'm twenty-one years old, born 5 january 2000.
I'm a mixed-race, white-passing jew with a russian cultural background, living in boston, ma. i practice reform judaism, but am atheist in belief.
I speak english and russian fluently, and a bit of french.
I'm bisexual, asexual, and mlm.
I'm developmentally/neurologically disabled, psychotic, and chronically ill. dont ask for details, but if i vanish for weeks, this is why.
I'm a history undergraduate student aiming for an eventual library science degree. meanwhile i work as a barista at starbucks and hate it.
I'm an anarcho-communist.
I'm goth, and yes, this is a major enough part of my identity to go on here with all this other stuff.
This video is my entire personality. please watch it. im a modern day vampire, i need to survive, i need to survive!
I write the catacumba wars, a fantasy/mystery/steampunk/cosmic horror serial.
Joel is my boyfriend (homosexuality implied).
before you follow
This twitter isnt ever nsfw, so im theoretically fine with minors following me. i probably wont try to befriend you though. dont take it personally, im an adult.
If youre incredibly horny on main, i likely wont follow for my own comfort. occasionally is fine, but beyond that i simply wont follow back. its nothing personal at all.
If you romanticize incest, abuse, or pedophilia, identify as an 'anti-anti' or 'pro-shipper', etc - i would prefer you stay away.
I try to avoid discourse, but politics might happen sometimes. im an anarcho-communist, dont follow me if that pisses you off. in general, i tend to get frustrated with non-leftists quickly.
I often dry-type, or sound more serious than i am. i also very rarely use tone indicators.
My presence is sporadic, either tweeting/retweeting in bursts or going silent for long whiles.
I'm fine with other people dming me, and often thrilled by it, but i rarely initiate first contact. talk to me, though - especially if you're russian, i need to practice my russian with someone who isnt one of my mothers 50+ year old friends.
I prefer anyone but close friends avoid jokingly insulting me too much.
When unfollowing me, please soft-block if we're mutuals. this is simply for conveniences sake more than anything.
I would prefer descriptions of animal abuse/harm and posts about missing animals/animals at risk of being euthanized be tagged. 'animal harm' is fine. if this is repeatedly not followed i may need to unfollow for my mental health.
The following dont necessarily need tagging ( i obviously don't expect random people to remember all of this), but please avoid them in conversations with me (if you do want to tag all of these, lime dont look suffices, as i know they're quite specific).
animal death, abuse, and harm. this especially applies to pets and cats.
unsanitary things (ie bodily fluids) and gross/sticky things (especially human skin touching food)
astrology
pregnancy, especially mpreg
jokes about bullying (especially ones like 'this is why we need to bully people')
jokes about height, especially directed at me, and the word 'manlet'
decapitation (images, mostly)
nsfw real person fic/headcanons (i know people like to joke about them, but even knowing they exist makes me uncomfortable!)
