That fic you just reblogged was for blk reader. You are not black sis🫥 It's embarrassing when people like you invade other minor communities

hello. sorry to reply late but i had to do some thinking about this. i knew that fic was for black readers when i reblogged it. what i didn't know was that i am not allowed to read black reader coded fics. i am a person of color as well as a minority and it is hard to find poc!reader fics. i am not claiming i am black and i never did. i reblogged it because i loved what my mutual wrote. i did not in anyway "invade" the space and claimed i am black. I apologize if it made you feel that way. when i reblog fics, i do it show my appreciation. i am brown skinned with chubby body and i feel so comforted when i read fics where reader has dark skin or belly fat and it brings me validation about my skin and body. i was also unaware that i cannot reblog fics that are for black readers. i am sorry if my appreciation offended you or anyone in the community. i did not intend to hurt anyone's sentiment.

Hey guys!

I don’t think I’ve ever made a post like this before but unfortunately someone has forced my hand to do so. I really wanted my next post to be a new fic but it looks like it’ll have to wait until I address this.

I don’t like having issues with people especially if the issues aren’t even on my own issues— even more so in a space that I created for fun.

As some of you guys may know, I recently made a public server called Boba Pop. Anyone is free to join as long as you’re 18+ and enjoy anime men’s penis an almost grotesque amount. But that’s neither here nor there!

There was an issue that arose today between two members in my server over a theme divider. User @/sluttsumu and user @/miguelism (now @/startitties)are the parties involved.

Unfortunately, Stella felt as though Kierra stole her theme. I completely understand how frustrating that feeling is because I’ve had it done to me in the past. It especially puts salt in the wound because I used to really put hours into editing videos, banners, and gifs for my layouts. So, I can emphasize how it could feel.

I should also preface that in my server’s rules, it states to keep any drama at bay. More specifically, stating keep any issues in private conversations, limited but not limited to speaking to said person or a mod!

My server has an “open door” policy meaning if anyone feels unsafe, or like they’re being bullied/attacked, or then threatened/harassed, not hesitate to come to a mod if you aren’t sure how to approach the situation or even if you’re not much of a confrontational person and need one of us to break the ice. Communication is highly encouraged for better relationships and a more open atmosphere for the server.

It becomes an issue when there’s a lack of communication, on top of taking an issue that could certainly be handled privately, to tumblr. A platform that isn’t the safest for things like discourse and silly little online drama because of how easily accessible anonymity is, and the thousands of eyes that could potentially see said private situation between two people.

Stella did that exact thing and unfortunately, someone was uncomfortable with the situation.

The situation goes as follows:

Kierra mentioned Stella, letting her know that her theme was beautiful. Then said she hoped she didn’t mind that she used the glitter header she was currently using.

Stella said that it was fine.

Stella said that she noticed Kierra “also” took inspiration from the heart gif header she was using.

Kierra let's Stella know that she’s been using that header for years. (Since 2021.)

Stella acknowledges this and Kierra says that pink themes are very popular.

That’s not the issue, the issue is when someone takes to tumblr to sub post about the situation instead of speaking to the person you have an issue with like an adult or even speaking to someone on the mod team. That then makes said person feel uncomfortable and like they’re feeling attacked in the space, making them turn to a mod for advice on how to navigate the situation.

If you were uncomfortable at any point within the situation, you could’ve either reached out to the person you have this issue with or a mod so there wouldn’t be any communication issues. No one can read your mind on how you’re feeling unless it is said directly to someone. You acknowledged Kierra and you moved on, realistically, how is that person supposed to know how you feel? The mods and myself really encourage open communication so there aren’t any misunderstandings.

Making private situations public without the person you have an issue with aware of said issue, is not the way to go about things no matter how you look at things.

Can you imagine speaking to someone you believe is a friend then going online to see them sub posting about you in a negative light, being incredibly passive aggressive? I would really believe that anyone would be at a loss.

All this is to say, I was spoken to by my mod team who analyzed the situation (I was working) after it was brought up to them. To which, I then spoke to Stella about it to be the middleman.

I’ll attach the screenshots of our conversation so nothing is lost in translation.

I don’t appreciate and I will not accept being called out of my name for doing my job as an admin. I was very polite, respectful and tried my best to navigate the situation.

Stella, there weren’t any “bad” vibes. You were genuinely such a pleasure to speak to and interact with. You’re extremely funny and I found so many of the members in the server laughing at the jokes you would crack. And even being some of the first to read the works you would post in the promotions channel. You were welcomed and celebrated, as everyone is in Boba Pop.

This isn’t about “big blogs” and whatnot either. You want to avoid discourse but again, you take to tumblr to make this situation even bigger than it needed to be instead of communicating like an adult.

You were not ganged up on either. You were only spoken to by myself (the admin) then Kierra (the person you actually have the issue with). You said that I “blamed” you but there was no blaming. I came to you as an administrator with an ongoing issue that dealt with you and another member because my mod team notified me of the situation.

Your behaviors online do have consequences, as all of ours do. This situation could have absolutely been avoided but instead you took to playing victim on tumblr and spreading a false narrative that favors yourself.

I really do wish you the best but you don’t get to bad mouth me online, indirectly or directly, and expect me not to address the situation.

[starreo]

just popped in to see how everything was, but then realised it was Tumblr, which has now just become this sort of factory for writers to pump out their works and get no zero to no interaction unless they have mutuals on the app.

[usersanon]

Hello!

I’d like to preface everything by saying that this will be my last post regarding the situation. The intention behind this post is to provide transparency and context regarding recent events involving @/saintsugu (Ezra). The goal of this post (as was the first) is to promote awareness about this individual and clarify on some points, not to initiate a witch hunt or encourage any form of targeted negativity. I want to make it clear that I do not condone any form of death threats, hate speech, harassment, or violence towards this person.

1.) Turning off asks and reblogs.

I made the decision to turn off reblogs and asks in the original post.

Disabling reblogs and asks was necessary because some individuals were using the situation to bring up their own personal issues, using it as an opportunity to call for the “cancellation” of other unrelated parties and openly harass others on the dashboard. This decision aimed to refocus the discussion on the main issue at hand. It was about maintaining a controlled environment to address the specific concerns without veering into unrelated personal disputes. Nothing else.

2.) Hotline numbers.

There’s been speculation that the addition of hotline numbers was to encourage users to report the individual in question and have him investigated by the FBI, that is not the case.

These numbers serve a crucial purpose in emphasizing the importance of support and resources for those affected by sensitive issues such as CSA. The aim is to proactively contribute to creating a safer online space. The inclusion of the hotline numbers solely emphasizes a more proactive approach towards promoting mental health support and assistance for those who may be navigating challenging situations related to the recent events as well as informs victims of csa of some of their resources.

Even though I provided hotline numbers, it is explicitly advised not to report the situation to the FBI. Once again, the intention is to guide individuals towards appropriate mental health and support resources rather than involving law enforcement in this context. This recommendation aims to encourage a balance between addressing concerns and ensuring that the focus remains on community well-being and support rather than legal actions.

I thought this wasn’t something I would need to clarify, but there are a couple of people who genuinely believe that those numbers served as a way to report to the FBI. That was never the intention and that understanding was (for a lack of better words) made up by someone who wanted to create their own personal narrative, even if that meant making false claims or lying.

3.) The accusations and why shota/lolicon is alarming regarding this matter.

Addressing this specific incident regarding shota/lolicon is not an accusation for the fun of it, but an effort to bring attention to real accounts of predatory behavior from Ezra. There have been multiple “reports” of Ezra’s predatory behaviors. These are not baseless claims.

The intention is to share these experiences without compromising any of the victim’s identities and to maintain a level of vagueness to respect privacy and safety of all those involved while emphasizing the serious nature of the matter. There have been two separate incidents that have been brought to my attention after this discourse and both are highly concerning.

Moreover, it’s important to note that defending the right to shota/loli art inadvertently excuses the actions of a person with predatory and pedophilic behavior. While engaging in discussions about artistic freedom, it’s crucial to recognize the potential harm and impact such content may have, especially when it aligns with real-life concerning behavior.

Furthermore, it’s contradictory to claim your discomfort with shota/loli art while simultaneously defending the idea of such art, especially in light of the real-life predatory and pedophilic behavior exhibited by this person. There seems to be a reluctance among some individuals to admit the real reasons behind their discomfort or lack of support for shota/loli art. Acknowledging these reasons might expose inconsistencies in their discourse, making it challenging to maintain a cohesive stance. There is a time and a place to give your “hot take” and unfortunately, this wasn’t the correct time.

There’s a contradiction within the community. On one hand, there’s this outward expression of concern for the safety of real minors, but on the other hand, there is a tendency to dismiss or ignore concrete instances of predatory behavior. The hypocrisy lies in the disconnect between the stated values and the actions taken when faced with real accounts that genuinely raise valid concerns about the well-being of vulnerable individuals.

Where is the support and concern for the minor in his following? The fact that Ezra attempted to deflect responsibility by claiming ignorance about the minor’s age, citing a changed pinned post, raises concerns because it is a blatant lie.

Looking at the history of the account’s pinned, they have always had their age in their pinned, nothing was changed. This doesn’t make sense because if a blog with a “MDNI” policy follows an account “exposed” for being underage, it raises questions. Ezra was consciously aware that this person was a minor.

The others have asked me to keep their identities and information confidential to protect themselves from any doxxing and harassment. These are not baseless claims, however I will respect their wishes for their own safety.

4.) Defending art over real life and hypocrisy in the fandom space.

Another noteworthy point is this phenomenon where individuals are so in their fervor to defend certain forms of art (that they don’t actually support personally because they themselves know its pedophilic depictions), end up dismissing real-life concerns. The intense focus on defending artistic expression is overshadowing the potential harm caused in actual human interactions.

There’s a notable trend where the keyboard justice warriors in the fandom are in such pursuit of moral superiority and advocating for “community improvement,” when they’re prioritizing the appearance of self righteousness over genuine concern for real individuals. You’ve gone so far right that you’re wrong.

There’s a noticeable pattern where accounts are often granted permission to engage in frivolous, petty discourse, taking it to public spaces and sometimes even resorting to sending unwarranted anonymous hate to individuals who don’t deserve it. However, when faced with a serious issue such as this, the narrative completely shifts to a collective call for community improvement! This is a double standard where harmful behaviors are tolerated in less significant situations, yet the same community is urged to “do better” only when confronted with more substantial issues.

5.) POCD

Employing the concept of POCD (Pedophilic Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) as a.. justification for the individual’s actions is deeply troubling and deplorable. It not only misrepresents the nature of mental health disorders but also risks perpetuating harmful stereotypes. Using POCD as an excuse for predatory behavior diminishes the seriousness of mental health discussions and dismisses the victims of the predatory aggressor.

Such a manipulative use of mental health terminology not only undermines the genuine struggles of individuals dealing with mental disorders but also risks normalizing predatory behavior in today’s society both in real life and online. MAPs use this terminology on X in the same form user @/critical-thoughts is using to make their argument. Yes, it’s very crucial to recognize that genuine mental health challenges should be addressed with empathy and support, but employing them as a shield to excuse harmful actions is unacceptable.

It is harmful to imply that someone with POCD needs an outlet for the pedophilic fears they experience. That perpetuates the idea that people who deal with these sorts of intrusive thoughts, secretly harbor the desire to view the material they are so afraid of engaging with. P/OCD is rooted in fear and anxiety. The intrusive thoughts tend to stem from a fear of becoming a pedophile, while your brain tells you that you secretly are one. It’s a nasty thing and difficult to deal with, but implying that people who live with POCD require some sort of access to media like that is incredibly harmful. People with POCD, oftentimes, do not want to engage with that. They often do not want to provide ammunition for their brains to continue doing this to them (though with this disorder, ammunition isn’t necessary) and it is a fear to begin doing so. To imply that someone with POCD would seek out content of children (fictional or not) that way, is harmful and perpetuates a stereotype about POCD that makes it difficult for people living with it to open up or seek the help they need.

It's also “insane” to me that someone can blindly defend someone they do not know. Moreso, someone who has real accounts of predatory behavior not even taking into consideration the art found on his X account. The art itself is what’s alarming because this individual has had actions/interests that align with pedophilia and predatory behavior.

What a lot of you aren’t understanding is that: this isn’t about which dark content is bad and what’s worse, this is about a real danger in the community.

6.) Closing.

In conclusion, it’s my personal belief that some individuals within the community may harbor feelings of resentment towards my original post because they themselves are proven to be proshippers or my other theory is that: lacking critical thinking skills and reading comprehension paired with a sense of self worth that surpasses what they experience in their daily life makes for a very unsafe environment because of the need to want to feel like they’re on the right side of the fence. It’s “block and move on” for a lot of you until its you actually getting blocked. I personally do not and will not support a predator as many of you are so inclined of doing.

hello friends it’s been said before but I think it bears repeating: content creators are already doing all they can to add to fandom.

me and I’m sure a lot of other writers often get the question “any fics similar to yours/any writers who do more of what you do/hey please recc people or fics” and,,, I hope you can see that all these sort of asks are asking for more things to consume, more to read, preferably exactly like what they like about you as a writer -and while I don’t get upset over these messages- I also don’t love them. ༼ ் ▽ ் ༽つ

because the truth is that writers read less than readers. seems pretty obvious hhahshdh . we’re writing for you all, so we don’t have time to go dig through the tags and find new fics or writers we like. so getting messages like this just reminds me that when I’m actively making content for others, I don’t get the time to enjoy fandom. luckily I enjoy writing, so it gets lifted somewhat. but I would like to say this:

if you want more of a certain thing, how about instead of taking more, you try to give? it’s so so rare to receive back as a content creator, and it’s honestly pretty draining. it kills fandoms. genuinely. you guys have to understand fandom is a two way street.

if there’s a fic you really like, send it to a writer you think will enjoy it, and maybe that writer will get inspired. if you know someone likes a certain topic, send them some blog recs! If someone’s having trouble writing, send them an ask about an idea they might enjoy. It’s really really not as hard as you guys seem to think it is to make fandom more enjoyable for both parties. Because I promise you, I promise you!! If a writer is inspired and happy, you will get a lot more content to read too, than when they’re not. It benefits you to interact with, and help out your fav writers.

unless someone specifically has a rule not to, help us (writers) out a little. and ofc this isn’t calling out people who already interact, and reblog, and leave nice comments on fics. yall are little muffins whomst I love the most. but I wont answer asks that want more, because one, I don’t know many other writers to rec and two, it’s not fun to know you’re sending another writer a bunch of readers who will just pass by to read everything they’ve poured hours into, and then most likely ask them the same thing and move on

[woahjo]

why am i STILL getting aging up discourse in my ask box about bnha. the series is over, they’re all in their 20s. you can put the gun down now.

[iwaasfairy]

also people constantly doubting young women and their ability to make decisions by themselves, for themselves? what is up with that? it bothers me so much that older people and younger people both constantly refuse to believe that young women are perfectly aware and okay with being in an age gap relationship.

if these young women are consenting and happy, maybe don't assume that stupid dumb young woman doesn't know about the dangers of the outside world.

stop acting like young women can't make their own choices. their own mistakes. like they have to be sheltered. i find nothing to be more insulting and belittling than acting like a young woman is by nature making a mistake doing a thing that might be a red flag, just by virtue of being a woman and being young.

the thing that’s obnoxious about a lot of age gap discoruse is that it feels less about curbing out potential abuse and more the fear of getting old/being around older people, particularly when stops even being about actual relationships and just older people being AROUND younger people.

 like people saying it’s “creepy” for older gay men to go clubs that also contain younger gay men or people saying it’s “suspicious” for older people to go to all-ages concerts. which i don’t know, just isn’t a healthy way to live considering that if you actually go outside you’re going to find your self around people who are not in you’re immediate age range and your going to have to deal with that.

Can you write Geto summer date but with a white reader please? (I have seen so many fics with a black y/n and I feel left out)

i don't know if this was intentional or genuine but still doesn't make it right. i don't answer asks like these but i feel like i need to tell you smtg.

i always felt uncomfortable when i noticed that minorities are quick to get criticized over anything in general. this also happens in fandoms. as a poc (brown), i am so happy there is a rise in diversity in fanfictions. when i used to read x reader fanfics many years back, every fanfic had non!poc description for what is supposed to be x readers. not everyone has blue/green orbs with white skin and luscious loose hair. we noticed this and instead of requesting others who won't write poc fics, we took this opportunity and started writing for ourselves, our ethnicity and our community. i am not saying there is anything wrong with white coded reader fics, but you need to understand that what you said in the parentheses is ignorant. you seeing so many poc!fics should be a good sign. plus, i can assure you there are plenty of fics for white readers.

[planetsano]

one last thing! then I won’t be talking about this anymore! 🩷

in regards to user @/startitties

“the mods talked behind my back.” yes. someone contacted a mod about how she felt because she was uncomfortable. the mods then had a staff meeting about the correct steps to take the relayed the information to me, to which I then asked you about.

if you’re upset about that, then I genuinely don’t know what to tell you because we have a system set to handle situations like this. its a very normal way to handle it. i’ve been running servers for a while now and I learned through trial and error.

if you’re saying that you wanted to be included in a mod’s conversation about a complaint they received about you, but you’re also saying you feel.. “ganged up” on when I spoke to you privately one on one. let’s be serious.. that wouldn’t have gone over well with you at all.

the screenshots are there. I approached you with respect and I was very polite and professional to you. I gave you a chance to say what you were feeling, you said everything was fine but it in fact, was not fine. people cannot read your mind. if you pose as though you’re fine.. everyone is going to think you’re okay if you don’t speak up. sub posting and being passive aggressive is a shady way to move no matter how you look at it. and unfortunately, a member was made uncomfortable and spoke to a mod about what to do.

this is feeling like a.. “you can’t be uncomfortable with me because i was uncomfortable with you first!” kind of situation and it doesn’t work like that. i’m also not invalidating anyone’s feelings, I was completely open to hearing what was going on with you but you weren’t trying to understand or hear anything from me because you immediately put yourself in a victim’s role.

i understand not being comfortable with confrontation because i’m personally not, however, if a mod comes to you asking about a situation, its not blaming you or pointing fingers. you didn’t communicate anything to us and it blew up way out of proportion. yes? it’s trivial because it could have been solved through communication. we all have attachments to our themes because for a lot of us it’s our online persona.

you say you were “perfectly content” but you take to tumblr to blow a situation up, lie and spread a completely false narrative. you were “perfectly content” but you said there were “bad vibes” in a friendly atmosphere to which all active members can a test to because we really cut up the that vc channel. i’ll attach just a couple of everyone’s interactions with you.

going on tumblr and outright lying and spinning a very false narrative in your comments/to your followers is not how you handle situations, and unfortunately, that’s what happened on Stella’s behalf.

to blow up all this drama over the glitter divider and the pink spinning heart gif that everyone has or has used on their blog at one point seems really... immature, I’m sorry. We all love ours themes and we all work extremely hard on them but for all this to drag two, almost three months is wild.

to go online make these outrageous claims like calling us ableists for approaching you about the situation in a very respectful manner isn’t okay. Especially when half the mod team suffer from their own mental illnesses and the other half are neurodivergent themselves.

to make disgusting implications behind us “not doing ID checks” (when the mods and I do research on a blog to determine if they really are said age) when you’re in your twenties and you’re okay with interacting with and allowing 15/16 year olds on a nsfw blog you run is nuts.

this isn’t her first offense with accusing others of stealing from her— it just seems like a pattern. If you dig through, she’s made multiple accounts and the same set of issues have been following her.

the victim complex is ultimately what’s making this situation with me speaking to you as an admin and doing my role, the issue.

i’m not an enforcer, i’m an informer. you left on your accord and i’m happy you did yourself that favor.

UPDATE 10/18/23 — we all know you’ve been sending hate messages and threats to our inboxes. please stop.

good luck.

[dejwritesarchived]

*clears throat and sips water* i believe poc and black fanfic writers on here are put on a higher pedestal of criticism compared to their white counterparts. that's it, thanks for coming to my ted talk.

[iwaasfairy]

rambly rant in the aftermath of this whole situation. I wasn’t gonna say anything because I didn’t have anything new or smart to say

but now I really wanna implore my followers to think critically in light of tumblr “drama”. because it’s dangerous. inflammatory posts are so easy.

imagine being called some of the worst words for one second, could you as easily defend yourself? even if you knew you had done nothing, how easy does it seem to convince an angry mob that they’ve got it wrong? definitely not as easy as making the fucking post at least.

I don’t want to talk whatever allegations. its not about the post of the week. its about the culture around drama, and free-for-all that surrounds it.

the lack of critical thought and understanding that smart, grown humans are able to give these situations is sad. past blind gut reaction anger and disbelief, do yall do anything with those thoughts afterward? parroting some talking head without thought isn’t insight. the people who make these posts on anon and think that gives them free reign to do the most despicable shit,

if you wish real harm, if you doxx, if you threaten someone’s life or innocent people who aren’t even involved - you’re straight up a bad person. the person you’re calling out may be a bad person too, but there’s no way you’re the “good guy” there.

can you actually think about what you believe in regards to the thing?

some of you seem to think everyone acts in service of you and your beliefs, instead of their own reasons and beliefs.

I know angry people are gonna start shit bc you have the critical reading skills of a goldfish so again, this isn’t a judgement about the situations that have cropped up in dc spheres last few days. I can’t say anything that hasn’t been said before. It’s about how y’all react to it. Drama isn’t an excuse to become a horrible person for a few days. And if you take any chance to publicly act like a shitty person, maybe you just are a shitty person.

It shows that most of you have no fucking clue of what you’re talking about. Publicly airing your problem w someone isn’t public service.

we all understand that a subjective bad interaction isn’t proof. it doesn’t criminalise someone to be shit person to talk to, but that’s 90% of the rbs.

If you have a gripe with someone, you talk about it in private, or to friends, or block them. And if you’re gonna call someone out, make sure you can line up the facts. Not assumptions.

The vagueness is so distasteful. If you don’t have enough fact to label them with that word publicly, maybe mind your business and dislike the person in quiet. no one said you’re not allowed to dislike someone.

have some fucking class. unless you’ve made sure that what you’re saying in the Whole truth, it probably isn’t. it’s your belief, and your belief isn’t any more important or right than anyone else’s. so many of you are seriously, seriously embarrassing. good job doing absolutely nothing for the betterment of anyone.

TW: Racism/Racial Insensitivity.

This user was in my servers for the better half of a year in 2023 until his behavior was just too out of hand to handle and things came to blows.

What was the final straw for me, as well as many other black women in the server, was an incredibly racially insensitive joke made by him at the expense of other women. He apologized but we all later found out that he had been talking shit about all the black women in the server who were rightfully hurt and offended at the joke he made. It was a joke about hair and implying that the member’s hair was not her own but instead a wig.

Ezra said that “we weren’t really offended by the joke.” and that it was just an “attempt to get him out of the server.” He said that “the nonblack people in the server should have come to defend him” but they didn’t because they were “too scared of getting on Bria’s bad side.” This quickly became an issue of Ezra being racially insensitive to others and somehow into drama that he pinned onto me because it happened in my servers. Her oversimplified his actions to others and spread lies about how the black women were the villains and he was the victim because we corrected his actions.

What made it worse was that he made this joke immediately after we all (black women) had a very nuanced discussion about how harmful black stereotypes are depicted in media and more specifically black fan fiction.

This individual has a history of being a liar, a manipulator, and shown very harmful behaviors towards others he forces into friendships and roleplays with.

Please be aware of the user @/saintsugu also known as Ezra.

Past pseudonyms include (but are not limited to: @/aces_high

I never thought that I would have to create a post like this. In my near 12 years on the internet, I never thought I would have to write down the words I am about to type, especially about a fellow fanfic creator, one I used to enjoy before I found out about the type of person he really is. I apologise for the long post, however I want to make sure I am as thorough as possible so I can bring this person to justice.

Before opening the read more/ continuing with this post, please read the trigger warnings. This will deal with heavy topics, ones that make me sick to my stomach. I apologise for all of the censoring in this post as well.

TW: P*DOPHILIA, UNDER*GE, SEXUALIZATION OF EDS AND SH

I would just like to start off by saying how difficult this post is for me to write. I have had to take multiple breaks while typing this out. I have felt disgusted since I first saw the posts on his twitter. Like I need to take a shower and scrub myself clean, however, at the same time I feel like I cannot sit idly by while Ezra still has a platform.

The posts I have seen on his twitter, what he actively endorses is just disgusting and predatory in nature. I have done my best to censor them so as to not continue the spread of such material. As of the time of this post, his twitter is still public.

HIS TWITTER (X) IS CURRENTLY UNDER THE NAME @/ezr_ace

First, I’ll give evidence I have to prove that the twitter account stated above is in fact his. I was wary at first as well, however, I believe this evidence in fact proves that beyond reasonable doubt that the account is his.

The obvious reasoning is as follows: Ezra goes by the pseudonym Ezra currently, and has gone by the pseudonym Ace in the past. Both the twitter account and his tumblr state that he is 21. Both twitter and tumblr themes are the same in nature, featuring manga panels of Suguru edited in the same way.

If you’re familiar with Ezra at all, you would know that they are very close with another user, Flora, also known as @/fyogasm. Previously known as @/pussydrunkfyodor on tumblr. When going through the followers of this twitter account, I noticed someone by the name of Flora following him (one of about 34 followers), with the user @/floratumblr. This account had their tumblr linked in the bio of the profile, and it led straight to Flora’s tumblr. Screen recording is posted below:

UPDATE: since Ezra has been called out, Flora has unfollowed Ezra’s Twitter as well as deleted her account. I can only assume it is to try and dodge the backlash of being associated with him. Here are screenshots proving they are moots/ interacting with each other.

Note: I do not know what this means for the content of Flora’s character. All I can say for certain is that she is close friends with him (to the point they have each others numbers), and that she follows his Twitter. I did not dive deep into her Twitter before she deleted it. But I can say that I do believe she knew the content he was posting about, otherwise she wouldn’t have deleted her Twitter the second he was called out while remaining mutuals with him on tumblr.

UPDATE 1/19/24 1:50 pm: Since creating this post, Flora has reached out and stated that they have broken all contact with Ezra. They state that they are not frequently on twitter, and was completely unaware of the type of content he was posting on the account. They state that the content found on the account has made them feel sick and that they are no longer friends anymore.

Back to the main point, this only adds to the similarities listed above. A close mutual that he has been seen actively talking to on his tumblr also follows him on twitter, endorsing his behavior. This alone was too much for me to ignore. However, one final factor came into play that solidifies that user ezr_ace and user saintsugu are the same Ezra.

He not only posted to his tumblr about hateful anon messages, but also his twitter at the same time. Right after the messages were sent, he tweeted the following, as well as posted the following messages on his tumblr. Screenshots with time stamps posted below:

This for me, confirms that the two accounts are the same. There are simply too many coincidences for me to ignore. I feel that there is no argument about the validity of the accounts, as there are just too many similarities to ignore. Now, I can delve into what the post is really about. The content of the Twitter account.

P*DOPHILLIC ACTIONS AND UNDRE*GE CONTENT.

To put it simply, I was horrified when I first opened the profile to be greeted with Shotacon artwork. Full on artwork of an adult Toji a*saulting a child Gojo. In this artwork, Gojo looks as if he can be no older than 10. Most of the image is censored for obvious reasons, however, part of the screenshot appears in the video above as well. Proving that it cannot have been doctored in any way.

As you can see, the post is tagged with tw sh*ta. For anyone unaware, the definition of Sh*ta is as follows: “Sh*ta is a term used in manga and anime fandoms to indicate sex involving an under*ge boy.” (Fanlore.org) Aka, CP.

It is disgusting to see someone who I once enjoyed, once trusted, interact with literal cp. Drawing or not, the effect of it is still massive. Viewing children (ANYONE UNDER*GE) in a sexual nature is harmful to everyone. It breaches past dark content into something horrible. Something dangerous.

I felt sick seeing someone be as brazen as to repost a picture of a child being a*saulted. To get off on it. It is p*dophilic. That is the only way it can be put.

Further on this, he has written smut of, in his words, “not necessarily under*ge” Suguru in highschool. There is a whole thread on it on his profile, however, I will not be showing it here. The screenshot below describes the nature of the whole post from his own words.

When I first read “not necessarily under*ge”, my first and only question was literally, what the fuck does that mean? Either he is under*ge or not. There is not some fuzzy grey area coating the world between adults and children.

But sure, give him the benefit of the doubt. That does not excuse him liking multiple posts tagged with under*ge content. The most recent being less than an hour ago. Posts censored to the best of my ability below.

These posts all point to the same thing. The disgusting, undeniable truth that this man is attracted to under*ge content. Content depicting minors in sexual scenarios. Content that no member of society should ever consume. He is a p*dophile. For viewing this content of his own accord. For liking it, for reblogging it. For creating it on his own. He is a disgusting person.

FOLLOWING MINORS.

Him interacting with content like that above, consuming it in any capacity at all makes him unsafe to be around. For anyone. Especially minors.

Even though his blog is 18+, even though he preaches that minors should stay away from his blog. He still found himself following a 16 year old. Becoming mutuals with them. The fact this person is 16 is clearly displayed on their blog as well (in their pinned post).

Screenshots shown below. The individual’s user is censored out as, once again, they are a minor and I don’t feel they should have to be wrapped up in this mess.

Once again, Ezra is someone who preaches about minors staying out of adult spaces. Multiple times he has complained on his blog about minors following him and having to block them. You would think he does the same and would be more careful about curating his online spaces, however it he fails to do that.

I don’t believe this can be boiled down to a simple case of missing the age in their bio— this user has their age in their pinned post, as well as their about me. Along with the sexualisation of minors prevalent on his Twitter, it makes me extremely uncomfortable to know that he is following a minor in any capacity. I’m sure it would make anyone.

SEXUALIZING EDS AND SH.

To end the laundry list of posts on his twitter, we have him writing smut glorifying eds, as well as liking posts depicting sh in a sexual light. As always, screenshots are shown below, censored to the best of my ability.

In the post listed above, Suguru is described in a way that is hard to stomach. While it is not nearly as bad as everything else stated above, I feel it is still necessary to include, especially because in this pairing he has often described and implied Suguru to be a minor. There is a line and he has crossed it several times, this is just another example of such. Serving as the cherry on top to further demonstrate his mindset.

Dark content and discussion of these subjects in fiction are not the problem. The disturbing part of this is that Ezra often uses these tropes within his min*r/adult sexual fantasies, and when paired with the sh*ta and under*ge content, leaves a very poor taste in the mouth. It comes across as not only a gross f*tishization, but a gross f*tishization of taking advantage of a minor that way.

A DISCUSSION ON THE LIMITS OF DARK CONTENT.

In this section, I feel that it is important to touch on how dark content plays into all of this. I’d like to expressly state that this is NOT a condemnation of dark content or its consumption.

Dark fiction and dark content are a fine line. It’s a fantastic tool for exploring taboos and emotions or experiences that aren’t often talked about openly. DC creates what is essentially a safe space for exploring things that are not typically done or seen in the real world, with the knowledge that writing or engaging with it does not necessarily mean condoning it. That being said, this callout post is NOT about being anti-dc. Dark content is a literary or artistic tool. Keeping all of this in mind, to actively engage with sh*ta content in which a character is depicted sexually not only as a minor, but as a child, and to be sexually aroused by that image is the definition of p*dophilia. Writing or drawing children and engaging with that content in a sexual capacity is p*dophilia and at the very least, has p*dophilic tendencies. This is not dark content, this is p*dophilia.

It is one thing to write or create dark fiction between adults for the purpose of gratification or exploration of social dynamics and it is entirely another to engage with art of a child engaging in sexual acts with an adult for (seemingly) the intent purpose of sexual gratification. Everyone draws their own line, but it is also important to acknowledge that there are some depictions of taboo subjects that border (if not fully step-into) harmful, p*dophilic content that perpetuates behavior and mental tendencies that truly are dangerous.

To engage with a drawing of a child and a full grown adult in sexual acts for the purpose of sexual gratification is incredibly fucked up. And the fact that minor and adult p*rnography are not just common, but dominating Ezra's twitter page, should be an absolute red flag. It’s okay to acknowledge that dark content is a medium for fiction while also acknowledging that there are some ways of engaging with it that are harmful, especially when it is so glaringly obvious that the content is between a child and an adult (the art I am talking about specifically really is a child. I don’t urge anyone to look at it, but it is gojo depicted as a child of maybe 8 - 10 years old. I’m not using the term child as an umbrella term for minors here).

The problem, stated very plainly, is that the post/s he is engaging with are sexual depictions of a child with the purpose of sexual gratification. That’s the point here. It’s not the dark content, but rather that he is retweeting posts depicting a child of about 8-10 engaged in sexual acts and created for the purpose of sexual gratification.

Once again, this is not a condemnation of dark content. Dark content can be used in so many valuable ways— facing trauma, dealing with taboo subjects, exploring the literary world in a safe and healthy way. As someone who actively consumes dark content, I will be the first to tell you this. However there should always be limits to the types of content produced. Gaining any kind of gratification from looking at a child being a*saulted is disgusting. It is p*dophillic. Especially when he actively engages with minors on his platform.

This is not a conversation of morals— which side is right and wrong. But rather a conversation about the safety of children. This is not a conversation about ageing up as that is not what he is doing. The characters being depicted here are not being aged up, rather are being depicted as minors, or literal children being used for the sexual gratification of adults.

The issue here is a p*dophile. Not dark content. Not anything else.

CONCLUSION.

I’ll be honest, post was extremely hard for me to create. Discovering that someone I once thought was close to me is this kind of person feels disgusting and abhorrent. I honestly wish I never had the displeasure of meeting them in the first place.

Hopefully, by the end of this post you are able to see the kind of person Ezra really is. I could not be silent about this. I knew that the moment all I found all of this out. This post has been very difficult for me to write, but I hope by the end of it some good will come. Some people will be able to avoid interacting with this man.

I believe Ezra needs professional help, and truly hope that he is able to get it some day soon.

Please be careful with who you interact with on the Internet. Adults and minors alike, there are predators everywhere. Please try your best to stay safe in your own online spaces. All of the love in my heart goes out to anyone who has survived child expl*itation. I hope for nothing but the best for you in the future.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this post. I know it is long and triggering for most people. I hope you all have wonderful days and try your best to take care of yourself.

Listed below are some important numbers I would like to bring awareness to before this post is over.

National Child Ab*se Hotline (USA): 1-800-422-4453

National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (USA): 1-800-843-5678

The National Sexual A*sault Hotline (USA): 1-800-656-4673

Childline (UK): 0800-1111

International Child Helpline: 116-111

TLDR: Ezra has a Twitter account where he retweeted artwork of a child gojo being a*saulted by an adult toji. He liked as well as created posts depicting under*ge characters (literally tagged with ‘under*ge’). All while being mutuals with a 16 year old on tumblr.

Tags used to try and spread awareness. I tried to mostly include fandoms that he is in.

UPDATE: lmfao, he has since deleted the retweet of sh*ta gojo after he was called out. Literally proving that it was him.

using a ref is one thing. but completely tracing it is another. and the fact you're taking coms? i hope nobody actually paid you for this @bontenswhxre . i know if i commissioned an artist and the result was a completely traced ref i would be upset about it. and you've not credited any of these refs either.

[saintobio]

Saint you're a wonderful writer and probably the most patient one I've come across because my fucking god these people have no chill. I'm sorry I'm being harsh but it feels like some people are just skipping on entire paragraphs???? And reading only the shit which would push their gojoyn endgame and utahime and satoru hate agenda?????

Like my god I even kind of felt sympathetic towards sera in sn (not the chamomile tea incident that was plain vile) because I can get her side of the story which you tried to explain so much when you wrote about her situation at home, her need for money, etc.

Yes a lot of her actions with gojo were completely wrong and in that time I sided with yn obv because it wasn't fair to her but at the same time I considered her as a character who has two sides of the story and not just one where she was looking like she wanted to destroy another woman's life

In the same way I can understand utahime as well because you wrote about her side of the story as well. And it's honestly ENOUGH for me to consider her not a plain evil person and just someone who wants love and her own stuff from life.

Its obv unfortunate that the one utahime wants is the ex husband of her bestf but honestly if I've learned anything, it's that sometimes you cannot help who you fall in love with. (This is controversial but honestly I've been in yn's shoes in my life and that is how I'm forming an opinion on it)

Again the thing I completely disagree with, is her not telling yn sooner about her and satoru. This was wrong.

And satoru. This man rn. Is trying to move on. I agree that it's again unfortunate that it's with yn's bestf but he's trying because yn has told him THAT SHE CANNOT BE WITH HIM. WTF ELSE IS HE SUPPOSED TO DO.

I FR SEE PEOPLE BEING LIKE "you could've done more to be with her again but you didn't" LIKE. HOW. TF. HE TRIED EVERYTHING. LITERALLY THE ONLY OPTION I COULD SEE THAT WAS LEFT WAS EMOTIONAL MANIPULATION AND FORCE. DID PEOPLE WANT THAT? I HOPE TF NOT.

I'm sorry but in my opinion he tried everything.

Again I will forever remember how satoru treated her in sn and how much she mentally and physically suffered during that period. I was crying while reading guys pls don't get me wrong I'm not trying to defend his actions. I was really mad at satoru during an era. And I recognize that he only came to yn after she started to not give a fuck but here's the thing (maybe controversial)- he suffered. He became fucking su*cidal because because he was made to believe that he lost his child. That is in my opinion enough of a punishment for him. This is my interpretation because as a reader, my emotions and opinions for characters change with changing circumstances.

And yn. I will forever have a soft spot for her and I just want her to be happy because she deserves it. She's also just human and I dont really know what to say but wish for her happiness.

But here's the last thing. It's a story. And its angst. And its saint's story. AND SHE CAN DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH HER STORY, THE CHARACTERS, THE PLOT AND EVERYTHING.

LITERALLY THE ONLY THING WE CAN DO IS READ FUCKING PROPERLY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT SHE'S TRYING TO POTRAY. ITS THE BEARE MINIMUM. THEN WILL COME OUR OWN OPINIONS BASED ON OUR OWN EXPERIENCES IN LIFE BUT FIRST, WE CAN TRY TO NOT INVALIDATE ALL OTHER POINTS JUST TO PUSH OUR OPINIONS ON HER.

And saint has said time and time again that these characters are imperfect. They're human. They hurt and get hurt.

The least we can do is not invalidate what she says and be respectful to her and the characters while saying something.

Hi Saint! I’m so sorry that the response of sy is pretty much overwhelming you, both sn and sy are so so great, and you’re such an amazing writer that’s really infuriating seeing you so tired because of all the negativity! Even me as a fellow reader, I get stressed by so many harsh and violent comments in the comment box, I can’t imagine what does your ask box looks like, yikes

I wish there was a way you could limit abd filter all toxic asks and still be able to see those who analyze and appreciate your beautiful work :( all this negativity and toxicity is not healthy for you, and it’s totally valid if you need to take a rest and put sy in hiatus

I know I’ll be here for it when you’re ready to return, it’s not much but it’s honest! And I do know a lot of people in this community that’ll be as patient and loving

Honestly I don’t know where all this hate came from :c sn had it too, but it’s seems out of control since sy started! Since wattpad came into our lives it seems like there’s a small community of readers that feel entitled to demand what they want from the story, but this is not ours, it’s yours!

And I don’t know the age range of people who read sn/sy, I’ll hope it’s +18 since your blog ask minors not to interact, and I see a lot of Euphoria fans (and the show is +18 too) but a lot of negative readers and ask doesn’t really sound mature enough to understand that a lot of what’s happening in the story is a response of the environment/context/history etc of sn, so instead of painting villains every chapter maybe you should wait and judge when the story ends, really, if you don’t have something nice to say, just don’t

i appreciate the support. thank you <3 it wasn’t even real hate, just some really toxic asks from entitled anons who want the plot to go their way instead of mine. mine. me, the writer. like why the fuck are u reading angst if you can’t handle it? it’s also nonsensical, like saying everything is in favor of utahime and i have favoritism 😭 goddamn. it’s ridiculous. and yeah i agree that some people just don’t sound mature enough but i’m really over it. i’ve been discussing this whole thing w my moot and it’s true that whatever plot i go with (whether it’s gojoyn endgame or not) people will always have something to say. i literally cannot satisfy everyone.

Why do you write for mainly chubby people?? Skinny people deserve Love too ☹️

Bruh I am a chubby person— of course I’m going to write for chubby people

I’m a chubby person representing chubby people. Most of my works actually aren’t body specific; no specific body types or identifiers. But when I DO write for chubby people— stop complaining because…

Ive had enough of constantly seeing skinny people represented in the media as the ‘ideal’ beauty— fat people deserve love and sex and relationships too. We’re no less deserving just because we’ve got extra skin and fat on our bones. We’re still people, we’re humans with emotions and feelings and constantly seeing skinny people in the media hurts and really pushes you down.

I’m going to write for chubby people because otherwise— who will? Who else other than chubby fanfic writers etc will let people know that we can be sexy too. I’m not going to be able to look at chubby porn without it being fetishised and overly sexualised.

I love being able to subtly write chubby people without it being as obvious as a man grabbing a fat woman’s rolls and saying “mmmm yeah— I love your fat baby” instead I can write how the fat spills between an anime mans fingers as he fucks into her with lust and need NOT because she’s fat, But because she’s a human being with needs and a personality

In no way am I saying that skinny people don’t deserve love— EVERYONE deserves love, they do, everyone is beautiful and deserves to be fucked until they cry but please don’t come onto my blog saying stuff like this

[kingdaddydaichi]

I love daichi but once he became a cop my clit shriveled up

so like I don't trust cops. i don't like cops. i don't date cops.

i'm the i wouldn't date a cop chick who fell in love with a guy who happens to be a cop. life's funny like that. he's chivalrous, he's protective, he tases spiders for me and teaches me self-defense and shit.

Truth be told tho, Daichi could shovel dog shit for a living and I’d still be on my knees for him. 🧎🏼‍♀️

I see and love the man that he is, not the insignia on his clothes.
