@gasolineghuleh turns out to be a pedo supporter. Here's what Leshy said below the cut, plus evidence and the pedo's mugshot.
Block them and do not interact. If Leshy and their other friends have tried and Lorraine has defended her/his actions, she's just as bad as a real pedo.
Hey Ghost fandom. My name is Leigh. I used to be super active on the fandom side of Tumblr a few years ago, but if you don't know me, it's bc I'm not around much anymore. It's probably clear by my erratic posting schedule that I'm extremely skeptical about coming back—even if it's also apparent that I still love and want to talk about Ghost.
My overall absence is due, almost entirely, to the non-stop transphobic abuse that's been dealt to me by Lorraine and her friends—the most recent examples of which occurred just a month ago, but have been likewise going on all year.
Ghost has been a lighthouse for me on my journey of self discovery, and when I first came out the closet in 2021, I brought Copia, in the form of a headcanon that brought me representation and comfort, with me. However, depicting Copia as a trans man wasn't acceptable to Lorraine and her friends, so they chose to spend the following year attacking me over it.
Despite it all, I would continue to share my Ghost art and fics, trying my best to hang on to what I liked about the fandom, but Lorraine and her rotating cast of cronies never stopped. The anon hate piled up, spilling over to my main when I finally closed the inbox on this blog out of self defense, and the subposts found their way into the main fandom tags.
Eventually I got sick of the way she'd take it upon herself to manipulate each new wave of Ghost fans into believing that I was the bad guy for standing up for myself—preaching about the "dangers of cancel culture" as her lies about me twisted into cartoonish levels of absurdity—so i left. It simply wasn't worth it anymore.
I recently checked back in after two years away from this place and seven months on HRT to find Lorraine and her friends deadnaming me and also wishing death on my mother. My reply was intentionally vague, as I wasn't looking to undo all of the work I'd put into healing and moving forward by interacting with her crowd again, but in the interest of recent developments (and also for the sake of transparency) here are the uncropped versions of the images used in my post (x) (x) (x)
Three years have passed since Lorraine first targeted me for headacanoning Copia as trans, and her behavior has not changed in the slightest. I've tried to warn ppl about her and explain what she's done / is still doing, but more often than not I was shut down, mocked or ignored. Maybe things will be different this time. Either way I'm not afraid of her anymore. My full addition to the story is public, and my hands are clean.
Take care everyone.
