hello friends and community members. i'm just dropping a quick note because you have all obviously noticed the change in my server location as well as a new blog. this is due in part to my choice to cut ties with castor / blade / brogen. while normally i do not engage in callouts or any sort of community drama, in this case i feel that it is important to say my piece as it has come to my attention that over the last few years my partnership with this person has led to many people associating me with them, confusing me for them, and being left to wonder if my continued collaboration with them creatively is indicative of my endorsement of their toxic behavior. for the record i do not endorse the behavior i have come to learn is quite commonplace and native to castor / blade / brogen, and i want to be clear that i will never endorse or encourage that sort of behavior.
for the last two years i have been on the receiving end of castor's version of 'friendship', where she has love bombed me, collaborated with me, and acted as though we were close friends, while engaging in very discouraging and misleading conversations about me behind my back - in addition to pitting me against many valued and ( who i now know to be ) wonderful members of this community. for those i have hurt in the process of this friendship with castor, i am sorry and to those who are still being affected or who have no idea what i'm talking about, there is currently a call out circulating that can be found here. my experience with her was quite similar to this experience, though i will not be posting any sort of call out of my own.
thank you all for reading this, supporting me, giving me the opportunity to say my piece, and i hope we can all move forward together and start to heal and make amends into the future.
i will not be publicly addressing this ever again, but if you have concerns that you would like to bring to me privately please do so in the DM/IM's privately.
and with that, i will say goodnight for today and i look forward to getting back to creating!
