I'm not sure where I first heard the term "energy vampires," but thinking today about how identifying them has helped keep me level. If you plan ahead for them, you can preserve your energy. The "garlic" to protect yourself = firm boundaries.
This is also helping me get through the holiday season. So for anyone who needs to hear it today, this is your reminder, hold onto your boundaries! Don't let the energy vampires past them.

Now blocking famous people coming to #Mastodon to replicate their #Twitter megaphone.
They always have most of these behaviors :
1) They don't follow back.
2) They don't reply to comments (much or at all).
3) They do a lot of cross-posting.
4) They are obsessed with reach/engagement.
5) Their use of CW's is spotty at best.
6) Give lip service to "special nature" of Mastodon, but make no real effort to participate in the community beyond scumming for follows.
