Bystander,

Thank you for your response since I can see there has been a misunderstanding. It wasn’t the Despacito joke with ToddBot that triggered me. I was already in panic mode when that happened. It was the escalating aggression the ToddBot showed to responses. There was also members laughing after “outing it”. Yes it was in regards of it as a furry, but “outing” is one of my fears in general. Everything combined to overwhelm me and I fell into a panic attack. As soon as I was leaving the chats, it seemed the jokes were being vanilla again.

The problem was that Quinn did not want us to have morality questions on the @yourlgbtfriends server since it’s a safe place. I recognized the need to not fight that in front of everyone, but I still wanted an audience in case things went south, hence confronting first on the mod server. The disrespect in there and subsequent removal from being able to easily tell the truth to the people involved made me feel I had no choice but to go public.

I cannot apologize enough for the harm already done. At this point, yes I’m the one being a bully simply because I want people to know the truth of what happened (I do not mean to be facetious, if it comes off as such). These things happen when people are harmed. From where me and my found family are standing, this is not good for any of us. But I feel I must do what I must to clear up what happened as well as learn from this what I can. I am doing my best to be civil about it all, and I am grateful you are giving me the chance to do so.

Bystander,

I agree that my confessional post is rather antagonistic, but it was heavily edited to be as civil as I could given my panic attack. I have already apologized to Quinn for the triggering content I overlooked and had changed it accordingly. Given the situation, I had done the best I mentally could after her disrespect of my ethics and my newly discovered trigger. She hadn’t given me nor my partner the chance to defend myself in the Discord server, rather choosing to kick us both out. The treatment she has given me has caused mods and followers to leave the blog and/or the server. Surely that is evidence enough that something is wrong?

This leaves me to trying to let the truth be known on @yourlgbtfriends, but Quinn deleted those posts. This leaves me to try my best to respect her wishes as well as defend myself, but still she tries to delete the truth. Honestly it’s rather frustrating and I can’t help but think she realizes that she was wrong to defend the bullying status quo.

She has blocked me, most likely due to the suggestions of the same people who thought I should be kicked without the reality being known. I have apologized to her through DM on Discord and want an open discussion so I know how I can improve myself if this ever happens again, but she refuses to make contact either directly or through a third party. In an ideal world, we could discuss this like adults and she could also apologize for her mistreatment of me.

So that’s where you’re wrong, bystander. There is a need to “expose” because Quinn is handling this situation very poorly. This “bs” is necessary because of her harsh treatment of me and my supporters. A safe place isn’t truly safe if it protects the bullies, even if that was done harmlessly for fun and for memes.

Hello!! ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و 

We apologise for the wait! The mod team have been sorting collab pairs, making contributor graphics & preparing for a couple of upcoming check-ins, as well as slowly getting to the emails with individual feedback!

Out of the ashes rises a new life. We transform.

It was tough before, it will be tough now, and it will be tough tomorrow. But we will survive for the euphoric moments cause they are so damn worth it.

You may call me Ki, a name given to me by the person who has inspired me to make this blog which I’m doing for myself.

Here you can find LGBTQ+ memes, positivity, support, and the defense of subjects we care about. Proper introductions of mods will come later.

For now, we rise.
