idk just maybe your first reaction to learning that someone you respect might be in a cult should not be “wow this is so funny and exciting i need to share this wacky news with other people.” nor should it be “lol i didn’t expect any different of course he would get involved. how disappointing of him”
and to be honest the reaction to this & the manson girl outfit really shows that ppl don’t take cult survivors like me seriously and think of cultish groups as distant spectacles that only idiots or ppl totally disconnected from normal society (like celebrities) become involved in. and not something we’re all (yes including you) vulnerable to in different ways
humans will see a soft cellulose plant material or downy animal coat and say is anyone going to twist that staple fibre in order to make a cohesive thread and then not wait for an answer
Seriously, spinning as a craft is ancient. Archaeologists recently discovered three-ply fiber that’s around 46,000 years old, blowing the previous “oldest fingers” out of the water by thousands of years.
But get this: It’s made from fucking TREE BARK. Can you imagine the dedication, foresight, and experimentation involved in figuring out how to harvest and spin that? On top of everything, it’s also lace weight. What the fuck, Neanderthals?

After much deliberation, I’ve decided to move forward in filing a suit against my landlord.
Some of y’all are already aware of the housing woes I’ve faced in the last two years. I am not afraid to own up to being housing insecure. But I DO want to make a point and say that housing insecurity is very complex and has many causes.
And one of those causes often include remorseless, soulless, and NEGLIGENT landlords taking advantage of people who they think don’t have any recourse.
My landlord thought we were easy targets after my house fire. He’s about to find out (if he already hasn’t) that we’re not and never were.
Any help you provide is appreciated. Thank you 💙
If you’ve been following me on Twitter for the last two years in particular, then you … Clarkisha Kent needs your support for I'm Suing My
So. Y’all really renewed my faith in people. Thank you so much for rallying and for giving me the gift of peace in a really tough season in all of our lives. And most importantly, thank you for helping me stick it to this rat bastard.
To let y’all know what happens now that the goal has been met, I will be leaving this up and open if anyone still wants to contribute (I’ll increase the goal amount to keep it active).
Initial Goal: $10000/10000
Updated Goal: $10335/15000
Besides that, I wanted to let you know my next steps:
- If I haven’t found anywhere to rent by the 31st, I’ll be relocating to an extended stay until I can find safe and secure housing.
- Next, I’ll be contacting a lawyer to begin working on the case.
- Lastly, I’ll be updating y’all periodically about the upcoming case and where I land housing-wise.
Thank you all again. And I hope you have the happiest of holidays 💙
