I can def relate to the desire to communicate the feeling of intimate info without actually giving anything away. It's something I've tried to hone in on with my own writing as a way of drawing people in and keeping them at a safe distance at the same time.
Totally! Also, our lives have to do so much with the other people in them so I find it has always been a balance to willingly giving information about myself while respecting the people in my life’s privacy.
Writing my bachelors thesis about PERFORMING INTIMACY ON THE INTERNET rn and your sub stack is a big motivation for me. I feel like I built my whole adult and artistic persona on my past 2014 Tumblr me, still keeping my blog name as my instagram @ and basically also aesthetically
doing the same I did 10 years ago. I totally get why it was a big thing among teenagers and why showing yourself vulnerable under a kinda anonymous persona on tumblr was a big thrill. It used to be my digital comfort zone and something to escape into, after hiding in school the whole day. also I thought I was the only one writing in my physical diary as a child, thinking someone would read it at some point afterwards haha, it became a kinda performative act I started romanticising as a child back then LOL. Love your sub stack and guess I will quote A LOT, keep going xoxo

Un abrazo desde España.
