TheraMutt: Three Years of Stalking, Harassment & Block Evasion.
I never wanted to write this post, but at this point it’s become unavoidable. Since 2015, I have been stalked and harassed by TheraMutt. Up until now, I’ve managed to brush her off with a call out post or two regarding some other form of intersecting drama, but I’ve reached the point of exhaustion with her endless, inane witch hunt.
This blog contains a lot of our previous history, most of which involves Thera using a myriad of sock puppet accounts to bypass my blocks and initiate unwanted conversation with me. I of course couldn’t prove they were actually her until today.
For the last year, I’ve had Thera in a stalemate regarding these fake accounts, as she only used them to send messages to one person in a particular group she believed to be “out to get her”, a group of which I am not only a member, but also the sole recipient of those messages.
I anonymously posted about these events, ensuring the only way Thera could defend herself would be to log on as her fake aliases and openly tell her side of the story from those accounts, outing herself in the process. I did this as a personal protection to keep the drama and bullshit away from me and my page, as I didn’t want my real URL dragged into this mess.
There would have been no way for Thera to concede that she knew who the recipient of the sock puppet’s messages were without exposing herself, keeping my identity private.
However, Thera has now openly admitted that she knew it was me who posted under a decoy alias to expose her “secret” sock puppet activity, and thus revealed herself as the owner and pilot of both Litlery and BillSmithg, as previously suspected.
Her previous aliases, full backstories, and their respective callouts: Litlery (1) (2) (3) BillSmithg (1)
Why does Thera feel like she “has” to contact me in this roundabout way? Because since fall of 2015 I’ve had her blocked on DeviantArt, FurAffinity, and both of my Twitter accounts. I’ve also asked her to leave me alone in multiple public call outs, just to affirm that she got the message (1) (2)
And yet, despite all of this, Monday, Thera made what I hope will be her final attempt to contact me via sock puppet. Thera’s new alias is “DisasterArtists”, and much like Litlery and BillSmithg, the account appeared overnight, knew exactly where to find me, what to say to start drama, and claimed to be from some random part of the world when in all actuality they were posting from Edmonton, Alberta Canada.
How do I know this is Thera? With the help of two acquaintances (who shall remain nameless) we managed to send IP grabbers disguised as external links to both “DisasterArists” and Thera herself. I realize this is sensitive information, so I’m going to black out all but the last four digits of both IP addresses.
DisasterArtist's IP + time stamp // Thera's IP + time stamp
Long story short, they match, making this the third fake account in so many years to get around my blocks and harass me without reason.
Thera’s newest accusation is to frame me for “tracing” an artist who she knows I’ve had history with. This tiff kicked off in 2013, quickly mellowed over, and was privately resolved in 2015 between me, the artist in question and a neutral third party with whom we are both friends. Thera has zero reason to bring up history that she was never involved in to begin with. Not only does she not have any of the facts (I didn’t even know her at the time this transpired and most of it happened behind closed doors) but it’s quite literally none of her - or anyone else’s - business. It’s over and it’s been over for three years.
Furthermore, she purposefully botched her “evidence”. Her layovers are warped, scaled, and are set to such a low opacity that you can barely tell what’s what.

It’s not hard to tell that this is a reach beyond all measure, and running around calling me a “tracer” for drawing a series of generic poses is childish, grade-A slander on her part.
I hate that it’s 2018 and I’m having to even remotely defend myself in this manner, but just to prove that this entire interaction is baseless, unprovoked drama, here’s a collection of the (almost) exact same facial expressions and poses I’ve drawn over the last two years (1) (2) (3) (4)
Thera didn’t have an issue when I uploaded those pieces, but today she’s decided I’m an art thief, and that it’s also appropriate to spread lies about me and my past. She also chose to use my real name, something I don’t have listed and don’t want ppl to freely use if they don’t know me, in a public thread for no reason. The level of disrespect she’s shown me in the last 24 hours is honestly unreal and I need it to end.
Also for the record it’s worth noting that within the last month, Thera has contradicted every single point she claims to take issue with here, from the concept of copyrighting poses and characters to how to “deal” with online drama, and her hypocrisy is staggering (1) (2) (3)
Her “collection” of my uploads and tweets is unsettling, and her persistence to contact me even though I’ve made it very plain I want nothing to do with her is textbook harassment. Thera might have quit Nazism, but she hasn’t quit her meddling or block evasion, and she has still has zero respect for anyone’s privacy. If you look through everything I’ve posted to this blog in regards to this issue, you’ll see that it’s always Thera who initiates and is desperate to start needless drama with me, as I haven’t tried to contact her since 2014 when we were on speaking terms.
I am a professional graphic designer who has been working corporately in her field since I graduated from college in 2014 and I didn’t get where I am today by “tracing” other ppl’s art, and I’ll be damned if anyone tries to say otherwise.
