Hi everyone, It has been ~5 days and there are already more than 300 people onboard and you have been very supportive and encouraging. If you are among them, you are an OG spartan here. Thank you. In this Thread, I'd like to ask for general feedback - which type of posts would you like more of and which ones do you dislike? How do you feel about the frequency of posts? And anything else you'd like to let me know. Currently I am mostly running this community myself, besides some video posts and artworks that I am grateful for. So any contributions are greatly appreciated. I hope the point is reached soon, where this community has picked up enough steam to fill itself with content. Until then I will try to continue doing that myself.

I will try to reply to everyone.

Thank you,

Nebula, alias nebulaone

If I am certain about authors I do. Unfortunately often I find content from secondary sources, or from collections. Also I can't edit posts at the moment, which makes adding authors later more difficult. This is definitely valid criticism and my answer is not an excuse, because I should do more research. Thanks.

Update: For art I will now only post if I can give credit. For memes I will not bother to reverse image search, feel free to comment if you know who OOP is.

Sur- [over-] realism

A place for surrealist and abstract content. Art, memes, data-moshing, optical illusions, liminal spaces, weirdly comfy stuff and anything else you think at least loosely fits this description goes.

Appreciation of art is always subjective. Your opinion is just as valid as the one of a professional critic. Remember, we are here to have fun and be entertained. Don't let anyone talk you out of your enjoyment for anything.

I'd like the atmosphere to be light-hearted and relaxed.

Merriam Webster defines Surrealism as following: surrealism noun the principles, ideals, or practice of producing fantastic or incongruous imagery or effects in art, literature, film, or theater by means of unnatural or irrational juxtapositions and combinations

Rules

โœ๏ธ If you know the artist, please credit them (memes are fine without it, as it can be difficult to find OOP)

๐Ÿซ‚ Be respectful of others

๐Ÿ“ข Self promotion is not only allowed, but encouraged. I would love to see your original content

๐Ÿ—ณ๏ธ No politics (light-hearted jokes are fine)

๐Ÿ‘ When in doubt, just post. Unless you are deliberately trying, I most likely won't remove your post
