Hi! I hope this isnt unwelcome advice, Iโve just been thru similar and highly recommend calling your local NLRB office over OSHA (or at least in addition), & the EEOC. Itโs an embarrassingly clear (for them) violation of labor rights and what the NLRB exists for! H2h :)
I donโt think Iโll ever understand the desire to โforward a storylineโ by unaliving a struggling queer icon (text or not), claiming they wanted it that way. Most of us ๐s have struggled w/wanting to SI, finding reasons to go on via ๐elders & coded media.
I want to see us LIVE.
As someone who works in social media, I'd like to offer some unsolicited advice: shut up. No, I'm serious. Stop talking. Go consult a PR professional, and hire someone to deal with your online image because you are singlehandedly tanking your con's reputation.
I used to think adoption is a great way to make a family and match a child of unwilling parents with willing parents. Then I tuned into #adopteetwitter, and had my own child at the same time.
Adoption is just very very messed up, at least the way it is practiced in the West. ๐งต
You canโt justify or vilify adoption solely by arguing outcome - because itโs not consistent one way or the other. And the ends do not justify the means - & itโs the means that reveal the inherent evils of the system.
Share your thoughts about the harmful elements of adoption.
Told my therapist about the toxic BS directed at adoptees here. She shook her head and told me that even the animals on her farm come with papers documenting their lineages back at least 3 generations and that itโs horrifying humans arenโt given at least that.

SPN ran for 15 years and never once did they run into a true crime fanatic who was obsessed w/ Winchester bro occultist grave robbers declared legally dead and then showed up 3 years later as mass murderers and then were dead again and then tried to kill the President I call bs
Iโve struggled w/how to make a remotely authentic apology while being aware itโs too little, too late. All I can do is speak on me.
First: I do not active or passively support or condone valโs behavior. i havenโt for awhile. iโm sorry it took too long for me to do something.
tw: talk of abuse
this is long, so i understand if you scroll past. but iโve felt for months now iโve had my voice stolen from me. i want to take it back. i want to talk about val.
i also want this to the end of this for me. i donโt want this on a drama page. i want to heal.
The friends who I intend to move forward with are those who are willing to do the same level of introspection and self-work, who are willing to hear criticism and who will call me on my shit when needed, and who understand we need to function as healthy individuals first.
(This was not a coordinated effort or planned statement, but I did ask Plutoโs permission to jump off her post and her input on the portion involving her. Note: Pluto & Valโs fallout happened in November but the escalating abuse started long before that).
I canโt express enough gratitude and love for the people who have held me accountable, who have both held my hand and slapped it. I donโt feel worthy of any of it, but I think that is good. It will make me work harder to get there.
I am sorry.
