This is also not an all inclusive list and there are some ships that I have a vague passing interest in even though I'm not really invested.

Before You Follow

Things I'm into that may make others uncomfortable (in which case don't follow me/mute me/block me/etc):• Age gap ships. I'm not into shota or loli but if you're the kind of person who gets mad at someone for shipping an 18 year old with a 1,000 year old god, following me may not be a good idea.
• Mentor/student ships. I do ship Dimileth.
• Complicated relationships that involve conflict. That I'm into DezeRose probably covers what I mean here.
• I generally try to keep my main SFW, but I'm not a puritan. I draw/write a fair amount of NSFW stuff for posting elsewhere. I'm also a monster fucker. If that bothers you, don't follow me.

Things I Want to Avoid

If you're into the following and post about it, be aware that I likely won't follow you back.• Harassing people over ships/characters. In fact, if you do this, I'll probably block you.
• Starting/perpetuating petty fandom drama. (And I mean actual petty drama like arguing over headcanons. Stuff like calling out abusers or art thieves is important and is not what I mean, here.)
• Posting/sharing a lot of non-drawn porn. Sorry, I'm not really into real people smut.
• Gore art. Especially if it's of characters I like. Generally, I don't like gore/horror and while there are rare exceptions (Castlevania and Vox Machina get a pass for Reasons), a lot of gore art upsets me and doesn't do a lot of favors for my mental health.
• Certain self-ships. Generally speaking, I'm totally fine with the idea of self-shipping/yumejoshi stuff. Sometimes, I even find it cute. But there are a few characters I don't like seeing it with. In those cases, know that I don't care what you're doing in your corner of the internet but, at the same time, I also don't want to see it. I don't necessarily have a list of characters for this, but if I hardcore ship a pair of characters together, this probably applies to them both.

In Regards to Blocking...

As a warning, I will block anyone at any time for any reason. This includes blocking folks for bigotry, rude behavior, harassment, for making their hatred of something their personality, for being anti-shippers, etc. I don't have much tolerance for bullshit and if you end up blocked, it probably means you were doing something I didn't care for and it may not have even been to me, personally. If I block someone for being an asshole to a friend of mine, it means I've pre-emptively blocked them from being as asshole to me, as well.On a particular note, I block pretty much anyone who ships Rosali and doesn't also ship DezeRose. It has been my personal experience that, more often than not, Rosali shippers are anti-DezeRose and anti-Dezel, and I'm not interested in interacting with anyone who may think I'm some kind of creep for what I ship. I also have no desire whatsoever to see anything Rosali related and prefer to keep anything involving that pairing as far away from myself as possible. TL;DR - I just really hate the ship.
