Community & Safety Guidelines
Awashima Post is built as a quiet, reflective sanctuary for unsaid words, grief, and shared human vulnerability. These community safety guidelines ensure this digital space remains gentle, secure, and protected for everyone who visits.
Preserve the Sanctuary of Silence
Treat this space with quiet reverence. Because there are no public comment sections, view counts, or follower metrics, interactions are strictly limited to quiet resonance, ensuring the platform remains free from toxic disinhibition, harassment, or clout-seeking.
Protect Your Own Anonymity
While our automated filters actively scan text for accidental email addresses, phone numbers, or street addresses, always avoid including personal identifying details in your letters to safeguard your privacy.
Approach With Empathy
Visitors read and write while carrying heavy emotional weight, grief, or loneliness. Engage with the platform mindfully, recognizing that every letter represents a real human heart seeking a safe outlet.
Prioritizing Mental Health and Crisis Care
If a letter expresses acute self-harm or imminent crisis, our system is designed to gently interrupt with immediate support resources, such as the 988 Lifeline, while routing the post to a private safety review queue.
Zero Tolerance for Exploitation or Harm
Any content involving abuse, targeted threats, or illegal material is strictly prohibited. Self-harm language is intercepted automatically by our safety pipeline; other violations are reviewed by our moderators when reported, and handled through mandatory regulatory reporting and permanent hard-deletion protocols.
