hey friends hope everyone's doing well!! these past few weeks have been filled with a lot of readjustments and reflections on certain parts of my life, but it's been fulfilling and it's been necessary. although i've been off of mcytblr, i've kept up with what's been happening in the fandom, and i'm happy to see this community having important discussions around abuse, assault, power imbalance, and parasocialism.

what's been made abundantly clear as more and more people speak up about their experiences with certain content creators within the space is that we truly do not know any of them. it's something we've talked about time and time again, but truly this has been a wake-up call for hopefully not just me, but for all of us.

i've also noticed a lot of victim blaming that has occurred as these incidents are brought to light (not necessarily within mcytblr, moreso from the general public and horrible people who are trying to ride off of the drama). while i hope no one here is feeding into this harmful rhetoric and proving exactly why these people were initially too scared to speak up, it's important to remind everyone that abuse and assault does not just fit into one mold and diminishing other people's experiences that you deem "not bad enough" makes you no better than the people who do not care regardless.

support shelby, alice, caiti, andi, and every other person who has or will come out and expose the terrible actions committed by content creators in this space. support victims, always. remain kind and compassionate and continue to show empathy first and foremost. these victims do not want your sympathy, they just want to be heard and initiate a long-overdue discussion. don't take away or diminish their voices.

Since i deleted the prev post on this I wanted to repost about the abuse resources. Again some of these hotlines are US specific (though the information is still valid/important!). I encourage anyone to add on to this post with non-US resources.

Abuse is hard to recognize even when you've experienced it before, it looks like many things and you can and deserve to get out.
