Wow it’s been a while since I’ve written a journal here.
Anyways, this is in regards to a drama that happened years ago, that for some reason I still get notes and mentions about. This is about KingSherman. If you know what I’m talking about, great. If you don’t, I recommend passing this on and not thinking about it, as it is not worth the brain work.
Point blank, I want no more involvement. I really couldn’t give a rat‘s ass about what he’s up to, I don’t care what he’s said about me. I’m washing my hands of it. I know he’s hurt other people, and that sucks, but I’m not gonna step in. Baiting me with this he-said-she-said bullshit will not convince me to do so. I don’t care about my supposed ”reputation” or whatever else tactics you try to use to get me invested in years’ old drama. I’m not that person anymore.
That said, I also want to apologize for my involvement, because I think I set a terrible example, and did not consider the consequences. I just thought it would be funny to joke about some wacky internet troll. I made it seem like it was just a silly game to make art and feature a journal where I messed with him. In doing so, I made it look safe. I did not mention that I chose to do so because I had nothing to lose. My family knows what I draw, so I was at no risk of being outed. Most of my personal information on the internet is outdated, so I could not be easily doxxed, on top of general security stuff. And I was also prepared for that eventuality, if worst came to worst.
In doing so I did not consider that others would try the same thing. And who could blame them? I made it look fun. Easy. Without risk. And I know it probably would've happened, regardless of my involvement, but I did not help. I did not do the right thing. I fed the troll, and encouraged others to do the same. And from there, things spiraled out of control.
So while I am not guilty of Sherman’s, and his helpers’ actions, I am at least somewhat guilty of enabling. For that, I apologize. And if my words have any bearing on future actions, I advise you all to ignore him, and the drama. Block him and anyone else who is still out there harassing (if they even are anymore). By all means call out the damage, but after that, step away. Stop devoting your time and attention to some nobody on the internet. People like that thrive from attention, so don’t give him yours.
And that’s all I will say of the matter. I’m washing my hands of it, and will not respond to any baiting comments/notes. Stop sending them.
Ayy so I might do a holiday draw and I’m torn on themes so if yalls wanna vote I has a poll going on Twitter:
