Swap-bot Community on Tumblr

About Me

10/23/25 - Bad Gateway errors are happening so often, I might get 10 in an hour. I posted about this on my NB-SB blog.

I am not hosting after early November. At the end of November, I am leaving Swap-bot.

The tumblr community will stay up and the blog will stay for anyone who still uses SB.

I met a lot of cool people and I hope I get to keep in touch! Please TALK to each other! Save each other's profiles as HTML, get contact info and save it in your email contacts, whatever. Just because a site is breaking doesn't mean our sense of community has to go with it!

8/6/25 - Updated my name to my partner's. Hopefully it will keep mail from being misdelivered.

2/25/25 - Opened a Community on Tumblr, which makes it much easier to post images. Most people either have a Tumblr account already, or had one. Please tell me your SB name when joining!

EMAIL me, please!

Message me for my e-mail address for messages.

The 503 Bad Gateway errors can mean that Swap-bot's servers are out of date, can't handle the unbelievable amount of traffic that bots bring (much less users) or both. Likely both.

The less security, the more bots. The more bots, the less access to the site for real people. The original owners don't have to do anything- we will see ourselves out, and then they don't have to pay for this website anymore.

Likes/Dislikes

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE put a DATE on any notes or letters! The postmark on the envelope isn't always clear or isn't when that item was actually written.

Please no dog hair, cigarette smells, or strong perfumes. I tend to get migraines and don't have a washing machine, so it could take 2 weeks to hot wash something properly.

Favorite Crafts

  • Hand sewing basic items. I try to use natural fabrics only, including scraps larger than 2x2" for sewing.

  • Papercrafts like art journalling, scrapbooking, and some bullet journal/art journal hybrid work for daily use.

  • Embroidery or sashiko

Swap FAQs

I blog just to post FAQs about my swaps, USPS, tracking, etc.

Please check the link before asking about lost things, swap requirements, why I don't just go off ratings before banning someone, etc.

Comment: First off, I'm so sorry, you're leaving from swap-bot soon. That's too bad and sorry to see you go. Thank you very much for sharing your thankful note. I very much enjoyed reading it! And, Thank you also for sharing the paper goodies with me. Your question. do you pass on things often? No not often. Only when I have no use for something, is when I'll pass it along. Well, I hope you have a great Autumn, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Good luck in whatever you may do after swap-bot.

Comment: Thank you for the note in the black cat card, and the cute stickers. Ha! Orange cats aren't the smartest, in general, are they? My black cat Pan was the sweetest. That was 6 cats ago. Down to 2 14 year old litter mates that were foster fails and the cat the neighbors left behind when they were evicted. My long term, way in the future plan is to share housing with my BFF, and she's allergic to cats, so I must stop collecting them. πŸ˜”
Response: Any chance on responding to food? Turns out, when our grandparents say things like "we didn't used to have cat allergies!" might... actually be true?? Chickens who were raised with cats have eggs with anti-F1 allergens. The cats eat the eggs, neutralizing the part of their dander that creates the reaction. There's commercial cat food using those eggs now. I haven't tried it yet- but I bet my partner would benefit a lot!

Comment: I feel like we should do rogue Pride festivals if the official ones get cancelled. The harder they try to shut us up, the louder we should get!
Response: Back when DeSantis started the "Don't Say Gay" campaigns, I just became extra outwardly gay whenever possible for a nearly-ace person. Pay special attention to queer-owned businesses, local queer publications that don't have money to advertise, etc. In FL, that would be Watermark news, The Sapphic Sun (based in St. Pete), and a few bookstores. tbh I just feel exhausted these days because 'which of these feminist queer titles/people are terfs' and i need a list. too exhausting, will wholesale avoid.

Sorry to hear you are leaving. I have had to slow down as well. Different things going on. Hope to still write you every now and then. Have a blessed month.

Appreciate your confidence. "Some people" have been passive aggressive nasty for decades lol. Sux to be them:)

MissAlissa on Oct 23, 2025:

IDK you, but I came here after viewing your swap - I'm bummed that you are leaving, especially if you've been here a long time. I totally understand tho, this is supposed to be a fun activity, not stressful! Be well! <3 <3

Dani Dani Bo Bani, holy crow! You've surprised me like it is my birthday with this giant flat rate envelope full of papery bits to play with! AND postage?! There's even a spoon in there, and after the long weekend with ma at home and the stress of kabooms with ma and the cats I need all the spoons I can get! I took short nap and an extra half of a steroid today, but your package is the thing that perked me up today. So thoughtful. So appreciated. Thank you. πŸ₯„πŸ₯„πŸ₯„
