this exact issue has been on my mind a lot lately. ive ended up not sharing much of the music i initially wanted to because it's revealing about myself in a way I'm not really comfortable with. it's not that i just don't want to share these things, because i do, & i feel it would be therapeutic to have an artistic space where i can feel free to be genuine. i just don't want to share it as myself. i think my plan is to start a new pseudonym & just not tell anyone about it. i would feel much better about being open about myself if the audience i was posting to were people who discovered me through a genuine interest for my music, or people who found commonality in the things i post & the way they feel, rather than posting to an audience of people i met at that party one time, who are now inadvertently my social media audience just because we interacted once or twice.

there's a lot of flexibility in my situation though because no one really gives a shit about my music anyway so it's not like i really am giving anything up switching aliases lol
