hi. multiple people have followed me who have in their bios that they dont interact with minors. my pinned post has '17 (age)' in it. please. please read the whole thing /lh
hi guys!! tasha here!! i have been gone for a While and i am so sorry. my brain goes all over the place sometimes and my tumblr accounts got blurred over. that and other things have led me to be less active- but ill try to keep making posts when i can :))
if you have any ideas for posts or asks or anything though pls lmk i am not very creative when it comes to making up content /hj
This is not a thing I ever wanted to make. Please don’t send any harassment towards Kay, but consider blocking them.
I just don't want to give them the benefit of the doubt anymore. People have tried to explain to them some of the things they have done wrong before and end up just getting blocked.
Rest if the info under the cut :
If possible all links to posts will be provided.
It originally started with a group of roleplayers realizing that they had all been having issues regarding roleplay with Kay. Someone compiled these concerns and sent Kay a private
message about them. I had mentioned feeling uncomfortable with some remarks Kay made in-characters, which was included broadly in the message.
This document contains the message written out and then sent to Kay: Doc
The concerned person was immediately blocked with no response.
Screenshot as proof of message being sent with no reply:
Now the stuff regarding their general lack of regard for the safety of minors. I would like to note I am 16. I make it very clear I am 16 on all my blogs, either putting it in my description or the pinned post. I sometimes reply to asks with suggestive jokes, but this does not change the fact that I am a minor.
Screenshot of the comment Kay made that made me uncomfortable:
Link to the original post. I can’t get a link to their post because they have me blocked: Post
At the time I didn't realise I didn’t process this wasn’t a comment I found uncomfortable, but looking back at it knowing this person is 20 it feels kind of gross. I decided to try and avoid interacting with them, blocking them for my own comfort until they pinged me in a post regarding one of my blogs. I learned about said post through someone else who had seen it.
Screenshot for said post :
I then messaged them regarding how I'm not comfortable with them making any sort of contact with my blogs. I understand the way I ended up talking to this person was not fair and I should have tried to be a little more civil about my approach.
Here is that entire conversion. They block me at the end of it.
I do not think using your age or disabilities as an excuse for your actions is right. I have an understanding that these things can make things harder as I have dyslexia myself (A mutual of mine edited this post for me and fixed any typos and grammar). I have a hard time reading things and having to have aides to help it. But that doesn't excuse not taking into consideration how old the people that you are interacting with are.
For context this is where my age is on all of my accounts.
After this they made a couple of posts on their main account.

Kay, I doubt you are never gonna read this. You block people a lot of the time when they are trying to tell you they are uncomfortable. But even if you were 18 or such you should know better than to make suggestive comments to people you don’t know the age of or minors. You especially should not excuse your actions using your age or disabilities rather than apologizing and trying to do better. Whether or not you realize it, you are 20. You are an adult, you should know you have a responsibility to make sure you aren’t exposing minors to NSFW content. Check people’s ages, and tag your blogs and posts as NSFW if they include suggestive or 18+ content.
On another note:

If your blog is NSFW, do not interact with minors using that blog. The fact you either ignore or do not understand shows you should not be in spaces with minors.
That is all, again please do not send harassment to this person in any regard. If you feel uncomfortable with them, ignore or block their accounts. This is just to show their disregard of minor safety online and how they ignore people when they try to mention the things they have done wrong.
Viktor, is there any way for you to heal people without basically stripping them of any sense of self/individuality and making them join the hivemind?
I do not strip them of individuality. The choice to stay with us is just that; a choice. I offer healing, and I tell each who I heal about the freedom, the peace that comes with joining our community. Of continuing to be connected with us.
If they truly wished, I would find a way to remove the connection. But each who I have healed so far has felt content with this bond. Satisfied. Secure.
not gonna lie, you guys scare me. everyone in the commune has such a blanke stare, and you all act the same. guess that's what happens with a hivemind, though..
We are not as blank as you make us out to be. While we may be strongly connected, we are still people. We are still alive. We have the capacity to function individually, it is just smoother and easier to act in unison.
Hello, Herald. We see you have taken your Jayce into the commune. We are pleased.
[ @porcelainandperfect ]
I have. It is so pleasant to see him unburdened from the stresses that used to plague him in Piltover. He can be truly happy here, and that is all I want for him.
It is refreshing to meet one of similar goals. A pleasure to make your acquaintance, friend, I anticipate our talks.
@chronicallyviktor
I believe we will have quite a few shared opinions. This is something many outside the commune refuse, so it is lovely to find another with these ideas in mind. I will enjoy our discussions greatly.
2. If so, is it like a blanket hivemind, or is there a direct process to becoming 'evolved?'
3. Do you all work as a community/village akin to bees with designated roles, or is it free reign to explore what you wish to do?

Some could say that, yes. We are mentally linked.
To join our collective, they must allow the Herald to heal them. Upon this action, their minds become linked with ours. We share thoughts and feelings, and due to that, we are able to resolve conflict and confusion before it can truly occur.
Each individual has control over themselves. They are able to pilot their own bodies.
As for our roles in the community, we go wherever we are needed. Tasks are completed by those capable whenever they arise. We have no need to speak aloud. Communication is efficient and effective.
It is not you who maintains it any longer. You have no need to fret. Our Viktor will take care of our commune. If you wish to return, we will not place any burdens on your shoulders.
You still don't get it. It's the control over people, the fact that I was influencing them to be passive and content. I don't want to be a part of that, neither as leader nor as follower.
We cannot say we understand, but we will respect your choice. Those in our commune have chosen to let themselves be healed. We will leave the option open for those who wish to change their minds.
Us who stay are content not out of influence, but out of satisfaction and peace for our state of life.
I did no such thing. You are putting words in my mouth. These people still have control of themselves. They choose to stay out of peace.
We feel at home here. More than anywhere before. The Herald is kind to us, and provides us with a home and resources to live. We thrive because we work in harmony with each other. Our home would not be possible without the calm he founded. We are able to communicate efficiently and without problems. It is more peaceful than any home we have had before. We are happy to be here.
Because I've been stuck in the hivemind. It was a constant struggle of figuring out what was real and what was a figment of my imagination. Constantly using my own memories to keep me complacent. I lost my sense of self in favor of familiarity. I won't go through that again.
Do you know how terrifying it is to not know how much time has passed? Or what's real and what isn't? To hear someone you believe to be your father say that everything you saw was a dream? I will not go back.
