TERMS OF USE

Last updated: August 2026

Welcome to FirtleMind, a creative media sandbox operated by FirtleMind Media LLC.

This website contains original fiction, dream archives, commentary, satire, art, experiments, and whatever else escaped the writers' room.

By wandering around here, you agree to the extremely reasonable terms below.

1. DON'T STEAL MY SHIT

Unless otherwise stated, the original writing, stories, characters, worlds, graphics, concepts, branding, and other creative work published on FirtleMind belong to FirtleMind Media LLC and/or their respective creator.

Read it. Share links to it. Talk about it. Send your friends down the rabbit hole.

Don't copy, republish, sell, scrape for commercial use, or pretend you made my shit.

That's weird.

2. FICTION IS FICTION. COMMENTARY IS COMMENTARY.

FirtleMind contains different kinds of content.

Some of it is fiction, satire, speculative storytelling, or creative work. Fictional characters and events should be treated accordingly.

Some of it is commentary, opinion, criticism, humor, or satire about real people, companies, public events, culture, news, or other subjects existing outside this strange little corner of the internet.

Opinions are opinions.

Jokes are jokes.

Satire occasionally bites.

Context matters.

3. THE DREAM ARCHIVE

The Dream Archive contains personal dream recollections recorded and published as part of an ongoing archive.

Dreams are presented as remembered experiences, creative source material, and documented entries from the author's own archive.

Interpret them however you want.

Just don't turn my REM cycle into your doctoral thesis and then forget to cite me.

4. DON'T MAKE LIFE DECISIONS BECAUSE OF THIS WEBSITE

Nothing on FirtleMind is professional medical, legal, financial, psychological, spiritual, or other professional advice.

This is a creative media website.

Please do not reorganize your entire existence because Pandora's Paradox said something weird at 2:17 a.m.

5. COMMENTS & HUMAN BEHAVIOR

If comments are available, you're welcome to use them.

You may disagree. You may debate. You may be weird.

You may not spam, threaten people, harass other visitors, impersonate someone else, post illegal material, or generally turn the comment section into a digital dumpster fire.

FirtleMind may remove comments or restrict access when necessary.

Basically: act like you have home training.

6. LINKS TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD

FirtleMind may link to books, social platforms, articles, sources, products, websites, or other places elsewhere on the internet.

Once you leave FirtleMind, you're in somebody else's house.

Their rules and privacy practices apply there.

7. PRIVACY, COOKIES & THE LITTLE INTERNET CRUMBS

FirtleMind does not sell your personal information.

If you voluntarily send information through a contact form, comment, subscription feature, or similar tool, that information may be received and stored so the feature can function.

This site is built using Squarespace, which may use cookies, analytics, and related technologies to operate the website, understand traffic, maintain security, and measure how visitors use the site.

Your browser and available site controls may allow you to manage certain cookies.

In other words: normal website shit happens behind the curtain. I'm not personally sitting in a dark room watching you click Pandora's Paradox twelve times.

8. NO PROMISES FROM THE VOID

I try to keep FirtleMind functioning, accurate where accuracy matters, and free of broken doors.

Still, websites break. Links die. Typos survive proofreading. Information changes. Technology occasionally chooses violence.

FirtleMind is provided as-is without guarantees that everything will always be available, error-free, or suitable for whatever elaborate plan you've cooked up.

9. THINGS MAY CHANGE

FirtleMind is an evolving project.

These terms may change as the site grows, mutates, develops new sections, or discovers another hallway nobody remembers building.

The current version posted here applies when you use the site.

10. QUESTIONS, CONCERNS & OTHER HUMAN COMMUNICATION

Questions about these terms, privacy, permissions, or use of FirtleMind content can be sent through the site's contact form.

Please do not summon a lawyer because you found a typo.

Unless it's a really impressive typo.
