Can someone ask to be muted here voluntarily?

I'm just curious; I just think that a temp mute for me might be good. But if it's not allowed to ask for one that's fine.
My promouns are she/her.

Currently on a Wikimedia wikibreak.

You must be a hoot at 12-step meetings.

If you do enough shitposting at a muted member, I have to unmute them. Be careful what you wish for.

Good luck brother:

1. We admitted we were powerless over drama— that our lives had become unmanageable.

2. Came to believe that a Wiki greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Jimbo as we understood Him.

4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.

5. Admitted to Jimbo, to ourselves, and to another anon being the exact nature of our wrongs.

6. Were entirely ready to have Jimbo remove all these defects of character.

7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.

8. Made a list of all anons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.

9. Made direct amends to such anons wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.

10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were outmaneuvered promptly admitted it.

11. Sought through posting and lurking to improve our conscious contact with Jimbo as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.

12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to drama queens, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.
