Hey, I was informed about a post Rina/Pinnapop made yesterday accusing me of...trying to ... "Traffic" them in 2020.

Sorry, but this is bullshit. I offered a space to stay to them when their abusive mother locked them in the snow in their pajamas and told them to move out. I have a lot more things to say and go into here. I don't really have time to do a deep dive right now because I just ran an event and compiling ALL of rina's context would take me more time than I have right now. I do care about context though, unlike Rina.

I am so, so supremely tired of this. I am not a child predator. I have never been a child predator. I have never done anything resembling trying to prey on children, nor will I ever. My husband was the one who did things behind my back, who lied to my face about what he did. Every single time one of these shows up, I have to decide whether or not to wade through blatant misinformation designed specifically to abuse me and my community for the misfortune of having been associated with my abusive ex-husband. This person is punishing abuse victims.

i think i want to talk about "manipulation" today, because i think there's always bad connotations associated with the word, because it implies getting someone to do something unconsciously. i've been wanting to write about my feelings on this for a while now, so here goes in my head, manipulation is a good storytelling tool. you have to know what story beats or emotions lead different people down different paths, and everyone is different, so you're always gonna run into people who slightly misinterpret your intentions, if you're not clear with em
