This lair is...

Adults Only!: Leave if you're under 18.
Accessible!: Plus it's responsive and epilepsy-safe. Feel free to use this on your phone! All ASCII pieces have aria-labels, as with IPA spellings for glossary terms. At most there's a slow LED-rainbow effect on the banners and buttons. For cognitive accessibility, if you're having trouble with any weird words, try the on-site glossary.
AI-Agnostic!: No AI-generated art, prose, or other substitutes for human creativity appear on this site. Without going on a sermon, our individual life experiences are crucial to the development of our art. If we homogenise these with generative AI, we lose the fine nuances of sentience. In the words of GPT, it’s not just lazy—it’s synthetic spaghetti. That being said, I do use Generative AI to translate old vampire books. Before you run out screaming, these pages serve as placeholders for human translators. I understand anything with "AI" on it tends to get a red cross slathered on its metaphorical door, but I trust this will suffice?
Freeware only!: There are no pay-walls, subscription services or financial-anything attached to this website. All links are freeware and any with paid features are optional at most. Any link that succumbs to ads, paywalls, or general boobery is removed. Any site that hosts torrents or abandonware is excluded as a matter of principle. The same goes for any discussion, endorsement or promotion, not out of any concern for copyright but for a second, mysterious reason.
Javascript light!: Javascript powers the site’s generators, filters, and collapsibles, but you can go without it just fine.
Not insulting your intelligence: While I've designed this site for ease-of-access, I will not simplify its contents. I also, as previously mentioned with my AI policy, would quite like to trust you. Outgoing links are not total endorsements of their webmasters. While I’m aware of the risks of inadvertently platforming misinformation or extremism, I implore you to compartmentalise information appropriately. Though of course, I'm not closed-off to questions!
Not-Safe-For-Work!: As an adult site, this is to be expected. My Dream Diary contains several violent, disturbing and occasionally erotic (though not overly graphic) dreams. I also create a Not-Safe-For-Work webcomic and host links to other NSFW things.
Text-Heavy!: Because the Internet's built on words and I have a lot more to say about myself than a litter of deviantART stamps.
Uncensored!: Bibliographical entries and public domain texts appear without commentary or alteration. However, they reflect period-typical attitudes toward ethnicity, national identity, and sexual politics. Some use outdated terminology, while others extend into explicit bigotry, particularly toward the African diaspora. Though unpleasant for contemporary readers, I present them for the sake of historical accuracy.; Nonfiction (bibliographical or full-texts) may contain factual errors, misinterpret their sources, and display other acts of human hubris. Be diligent and discerning as you read.
Undemanding!: No guestbooks, comment boxes, or donation links here. Just enjoy more pages. Everything I create is Public Domain and always will be, but please credit and source my work. Doing this will ensure easy access and archival for everyone.
Under U.S. copyright law!: All copies of vampire texts are Public Domain, either due to the 95-year rule or failed renewal. Do not redistribute these texts in your jurisdiction unless you are certain they are in the Public Domain. This is not a pirate website.
Unfashionable!: No trends, no bandwagons, no snarl-words and absolutely no unprompted political rants. I find a total drag. If I am going to talk about an issue, it must be deeply meaningful to me.
