You agree to the terms of service below, and the Terms of Use for Substack, the technology provider.
Got it, Clayton. Here’s your unified, first-person Terms of Service for Existential Nomad, written with your voice, values, and fire. It’s assertive, principled, and unmistakably yours.
🌀 Terms of Service
I am Existential Nomad. This is my chosen name, my creative vessel, and my philosophical battleground. By engaging with this space—whether reading, commenting, subscribing, or sharing—you agree to the following terms. These are not suggestions. They are the bones of this project.
🌍 What This Space Stands For
Existential Nomad is a space for radical reflection, creative resistance, and unapologetic truth-telling. I built it to honor:
• Diversity: I welcome multiplicity—of identity, experience, and thought. This is not a monoculture.
• Inclusion: Marginalized voices are centered here. Not tokenized. Not tolerated. Celebrated.
• Equity: I name power imbalances and work to dismantle them. This space is not neutral.
• Bodily Autonomy: Every person has the right to make decisions about their body. No exceptions.
• Emotional Accountability: Adults handle their own feelings. This is not a therapy room. It’s a truth room.
🔨 Hard NOs — Non-Negotiable Boundaries
Let me be clear:
This space is explicitly anti-racist, anti-fascist, and anti-oppression. If you bring any of the following, you will be banned. No warnings. No debates.
• ❌ Racism (overt, covert, coded, casual)
• ❌ Misogyny, transmisogyny, or gender-based harassment
• ❌ Fascist ideologies or authoritarian apologism
• ❌ White supremacy in any form
• ❌ Cruelty, unkindness, or punching down
I will drop the ban hammer.
And once this space is monetized, I will charge a ban fine—because emotional labor and community defense are not free. If you come here to disrupt, you will pay for the damage.
