Terms of Service

for The Cosmically Disorganized & Subtly Macabre
Last Updated: 16 November 2025

Welcome to this peculiar little corner of Substack (“the Site”). By accessing, reading, subscribing, or otherwise interacting with the content here, you agree to the following Terms of Service (“Terms”). These Terms exist to protect both you and the creator—and to keep the mischievous spirits quiet.

Please read them carefully. Ideally with a snack.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By using the Site, you agree to abide by these Terms and all applicable laws.
If you do not agree, please discontinue use.
No hard feelings—the void remains open elsewhere.

2. Content Ownership

All content posted on the Site—including but not limited to stories, essays, audio recordings, images, and any other creative work—belongs to the creator unless otherwise noted.

You may:

• Read, share, or quote brief excerpts with proper credit.

• Share links to posts or episodes.

You may not:

• Reproduce full posts without permission.

• Claim the content as your own.

• Use it for commercial purposes without written approval.

In short: enjoy it, don’t steal it, don’t summon anything using it.

3. Subscriptions & Payments

Subscribing gives you access to free or paid content depending on your chosen tier.

Paid subscriptions:

• Are billed through Substack.

• Renew automatically unless you cancel.

• Can be canceled at any time—no sacrifice needed.

Refunds follow Substack’s payment policies.

4. User Conduct

While wandering this corner of the universe, you agree not to:

• Harass, threaten, or behave abusively toward anyone.

• Post harmful, defamatory, or unlawful content.

• Spam, troll, or otherwise disturb the spectral peace.

• Attempt to breach or disrupt the Site’s functionality.

Basically: be kind, stay weird, don’t be chaotic in a bad way.

5. Comments & Community Spaces

Comments, replies, and community interactions should be respectful and humane.

The creator reserves the right to:

• Moderate or delete comments.

• Block users engaging in harmful behavior.

• Close comments on certain posts.

Your freedom of expression still applies, but this is a curated space—not a lawless haunted amusement park.

6. Third-Party Services

Your use of the Site means you also agree to Substack’s terms and policies.

External links may appear from time to time.
The Site is not responsible for third-party content, behavior, or entities (living or dead).

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Site is provided “as is,” without warranties of any kind.
This includes:

• Accuracy

Content here is creative, fictional, and for entertainment and inspiration—not medical, legal, or professional advice.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Site and its creator are not responsible for:

• Damages resulting from your use or inability to use the Site

• Emotional distress caused by spooky content

• Sudden desire to write your own creepy stories

Use the Site at your own delicious risk.

9. Termination
