#deerlyloved

[goatlingsvent]

Hiiii chat, if you couldn't tell by the fact that my username is the same, it's deerlyloved, hiiiii. I only recently even found out about this blog, and I usually hate gossip rags/etc, but, you know, I can't exactly say this anywhere else that might get attention lol.

I cannot stress enough that everyone who cares even the slightest bit about not supporting transphobic, homophobia, and white supremacy, should leave the site. I know that I stressed in my statement in the Discord that it was my personal morals/ethics that caused me to step away, but genuinely, I have to say; If you're sticking around, all you're doing is contributing in some way to a woman who loves fascists, and will give her money and time to those - worse yet, YOUR money and time if you buy anything from the site.

Kris does not care about this site beyond the fact that it gives her money. She will continue to use the money this site earns to purchase commissions of her and her neo-nazi boyfriend, she will use it to do fuck all for the site, and she will use it as proof she can keep exploiting whatever staff she can get her hands on.

Current staff members that are aware of what she's doing are supporting her. They are fully complicit in this.

As hopeful as I wanted to be initially, there is no way out of this. To continue to be on Goatlings, unable to criticize the actions of the owner, unable to tell anyone else about the things they are supporting, is supporting Kris and existing in a feeble silence. Grow a backbone, and quit.

I loved this site with my heart and soul, but I have the basic moral principles to understand that while I care about it, Kris sees it, and my love for it, exclusively as a way to get easy money by faking support for marginalized groups. She isn't going to get better. There is no magical future where this site flourishes, and she has a change of heart and goes through a villain redemption arc now actually saying 'NO' to racism and transphobia and homophobia. At most, she'll make a new secret account and try again.

Putting yourself in the position of someone too scared to speak does nothing but embolden those who exploit you. Practice the bare minimum of resistance and quit while you're ahead.

Or don't. I can't make you do anything. Personally, I'm just going to redesign my goats with more freedom, humanize them, and take their original story elsewhere.

PS: If you are going to stay on the site for whatever reason, and I get banned, please swoop up Impersonation and make her a Midnight Moon again. I'll give you her profile code.

Hello! I don't know if this has been addressed or not, or if it's something on my end, but I wanted to let you know that your 'november eyes' defaults don't... show up?

It's hard to explain, but basically, they show up as if they're working, with the eye color swatches having little wrenches in CAS, but when clicking the switches, the base game eye textures show up, does that make sense? I can try and get pictures soon, if need be.

i think this has been an issue for a while right? i swore i put it on a list of cc to fix but i don’t know where i saved that list…i’ll try to look into it this week !!!!

i could give the actual in depth explanation for my "hate of elephants", but im just gonna explain it how i first explained it to my frineds.

fuck elephants. they're pregnant for over a YEAR and only have ONE baby and we all act like that's valid. well it's not. it's not valid to pop out ONE shorty after nearly TWO YEARS of being pregnant. it's ridiculous.

if you're built by evolution to have this super cool trunk and these g fun ears and this great memory but you only have ONE baby every TWO years i don't think you should get to complain about going extinct. don't get me wrong modern extinction is through human intervention and it's tragic but also maybe have more than one kid. pigs have more than one kid and a pig is basically a tiny elephant.

elephants are basically if you took a horse and just really fucked it up. took the anxiety but gave it the saddest sound in the world like we just act like them going BLLLRLHHHRHHH is normal and cool well it's NOT it's not NORMAL it's WEIRD. your evolutionary trait for a sound shouldn't be (LOUD SCREECH). why did elephants choose nonsensical eldritch noises. they could have had a delicate meow. a lion's roar even. no they chose the sound of a noise maker but at 300 decibels.

there is nothing valid about elephants and im so tired of pretending their is. 'ohhh look they pretended to eat a lady's hat ahaha' that's so cute it would be cuter if they didn't scream at me and pop out one kid every two years.

You know, I would add something but I think you've said everything that needs to be said here. In a way I understand

I was in the .5% if listeners for Hamilton songs this year and I hate that for myself

Oh.. Oh dear.

I honestly have never seen Hamilton, but I have heard some of the songs and they're very catchy, so I get it!(kind of?).

Here's to hoping your mental health improves/jk

Mauve, emerald, and electric blue babie

Mauve: they're just . friend shaped

Emerald: kind and soothing presence on the tl

Electric Blue: let's be gay and do crimes together

Yes!! Yes times a thousand!! What're we doing first? Arson? Beating up racists? Borrowing from big homophobic corporations??? I'm down for almost anything, my schedule is clear. Also your pfp is really nice!

Well, goddamn.

Deer again. You know... When I first saw the art theft thing for MM, I said that I thought there was something more going on than "just" similar art. Then r00p's post hit and the other staff's posts hit, and I thought, 'Oh no.'

And I was saying the entire time, in the server, to my friends, 'I have a feeling this is going to get worse...' because I could just feel that there was something worse going on, and no one was being honest (well - Kris...)

No, but seriously, this is tragic. I spent years of my life on this site. I knew that it couldn't turn around once I saw what was going on and how much Kris was lying, but I wanted to remain delusionally hopeful that maybe the world's biggest clutch could come out of nowhere. Guess not. Womp womp, am I right?

My main goat, Impersonation, was a comfort character for me growing up (and, really, now) and I relied a lot on thinking of her and creating for her to cope with an abusive home life. I still do. I'm not leaving her or any of the story I made for my silly little png goats behind, they're already transferred over into a world devoid of influence from Goatlings.

Still, I will miss this stupid site. It breaks my heart that Kris ruined it for herself and everyone else, but she's a grown woman who chose to do morally dubious or downright unacceptable things that the majority of her player base would disapprove of.

I started cataloguing my goat profiles the day I heard about r00p, saving screenshots AND profile codes. It took me about an hour with something like 40 goats, so I recommend clearing some time if you want to do the same. Impersonation will live on in my 'goatlings profiles' folder, and in her toyhouse page, AND in the gijinka'd profile on RPR I made for her. Can't keep a good goat down.

Thank you to every artist that's drawn for me, everyone I've had good interactions with, and, in general, the site community for just existing as it did.

If anyone's looking for pet site recommendations, I'm on FlightRising, chickensmoothie, and Lioden, personally.

Alright, cheers.
