Weird q, not really sure why I'm asking: I'd been avoiding putting my real name on here bc I'm not wild about this acct being one of the 1st things that comes up if my name is Googled. Is there upside/downside to using full given name? Most of my followers know who I am, right?

Ok, I guess we answered this, thx folks: there's something attractive abt a v thin barrier btwn uniquely identifying name & many unedited thoughts. (Also FTR my handle is Bartleby reference & gendered feminine bc neutral form & variants were already taken. No more secrets, lol!)

the translucent pseudonym is kinda funny, I'd keep it just for that... do you mean to send a particular signal with the d'ache? I kinda read it as "empathically aching for all the pain and suffering in the world" ... kinda jesusy esp given first name context
