End of the line
🕑 Added 2024-11-19 09:10:01 +0000 UTCHello there,
I'm sorry for the lack of posts lately. I've been feeling very down after stopping Totty and I don't feel like there's any way I can continue posting online.
For the last year or so, a handful of people have been doing their best to make my life a misery. They discovered me after comedian Sam Hyde reviewed my TikTok account, and even though he was positive about my comics, several of his followers then targeted me and have done everything they can to damage my social media accounts - flagging posts, leaving comments containing slur words and porn etc. Some seem to be motivated by anti-semitism and think I'm Jewish, (I'm not).
Here's an example. This person seems to think I have a manager and that my comics are specifically designed to insult him. He's sent me private messages on IG bragging about all the OF accounts he's had banned. He just won't leave me alone.
I've tried reporting, blocking and all the usual stuff, but once someone decides to target you, there's not a lot you can do to stop the harassment. As a result, all my socials are now deleted.
Even though people like this clearly hate me and everything I do, they also follow me here on Patreon to continue monitoring me. I'm sure they're reading this with glee. Whatever I do next, I'm sure they'll ruin that too. Some people just get pleasure from destroying things.
The only way to shake these people off and continue making comics would be to start completely from scratch with brand new accounts, but I'd have to make something that didn't include photos of myself - otherwise once the new comics were discovered, I'd be back to square one.
I can't see any way forward online. I've frozen all Patreon payments so you won't be charged any more, and my account will be deleted at the end of November.
I'm so sorry to let you down and I'm sorry this has happened, but my self confidence is at an all time low and I can't deal with all this negative stuff. I just need to get away from these creeps.

Please God, take all of Totty's pain, quadruple it, square it, and then give it twice to every twitter troll out there

You should consider reaching out to Sam. He might be able to help with vengeance is nothing else.

I’m so sorry to hear that has happened to you Totty/Kat! ☹️ and yeah I saw that one in particular and it’s effing disgusting that you and most of all anyone especially women have to go that. It’s infuriating to me to know nothing else can be done to help you Totty and find a way to put folks like him down. But I do agree and fully support you Totty in your decision to book end it all. I hate and don’t want it to be so but I and all of us true fans care about you as human being first Totty. We want you to have a peace of mind and most of all be happy again and not continue deal with that pathetic cess pool. We will miss you very dearly Totty/Kat I do wish there was a way to keep contact but I don’t want those bad folks to keep tabs on you. As always I and we wish you the best Totty/Kat! You’ve always been amazing and always appreciate everything you done and accomplished!! And most of all shared your life/art journey with us, it truly was an honor and pleasure to be a part of and experience!! And also like to add, I don’t mind to keep paying too! That way we can keep supporting you and we will still be here for you Totty/Kat don’t forget that too! Again always love and support to you Totty/Kat! Keep safe and tend to yourself well!! And take it easy!! ❤️❤️❤️

NOOOO ILL MISS THE COMICS

I watched that exchange unfold on twitter and I was disgusted. Sam Hyde and twitter is a cesspool of degenerate idiots who think they’re the centre of it all. I know you said you are freezing payments but I still want to support you. At the end of the day, keep yourself safe, it’s what’s most important. Your real fans will still be here if you decide to make a return

I'll miss your comics Kat, but you gotta do what's best for you. Take care and hope to see you pop up again sometime ❤️
Tyler Brown
Genuinely unsurprising knowing how most of Sam Hyde’s fans are just bigoted assholes. You have to do what you can to stay safe and sound. Your mental wellbeing and safety is more important

Bye kat I will miss you take care

❤️ Nothing but love for you Kat
FullCustomHotDog
I hope you consider releasing everything on indiegogo or gumroad or something before you completely call it quits. It would be a shame for your work to be lost.
Riley Daugherty
Do what you need to 😉

I'm so sorry to hear what you've been going through. Unfortunately there will always be these kinds of trolls and people that can't just let things be. You have entertained us immensely and for that we thank you! Don't ever apologize for the wrongdoings of these creeps! I hope you may find peace and I wish you good fortune in all your future endeavors! Thank you Kat!
Jonathan Ventura
Nothing's more important than your own personal health do not apologize for a world that cannot be fixed. You worry about yourself and I think we could all agree thank you for everything.
Rafa Luiz
Hi Kat... that is so sad, but there are people Who envy beatiful women, they are disgusting, and will try to make you sad, and with you deleting everything they actually suceeded try to think about it... you have fans here, it will be sad to not accompany you anymore... Try changing the way you have your accounts, without comments, blocked messages, and only use them as direct channel to here... You will be missed.... Can i ask you make a private IG so we can accompany you? This way you only accept your loyal fans.. Good bye Kat, it was a fun Journey, with laughs and art...
ethan
Hey Kat sorry the losers targeted you when you made fun harmless content. Hopefully your next endeavors will be fruitful
Daniel Guadalupe
Aw no :( I was so looking forward to the next chapter but do what's best for you. Damn these creeps. Will the comic collection campaign still be a possibility in the future?
Nico Feria
That guy suck! I'm sorry you're having to deal with that. I've really enjoyed and looked forward to your posts over the last year or so. I love the classic comic strip style and, while, yes, I came here because you're fun to look at, I really enjoyed how tame/PG the content is. It's cute and funny, while the alternative is so readily available from everyone else on the Internet, it might get lost in the sea of content. I really hope you change your mind, or, at least, if you consider starting over, I'd love a link. I'll pretend I've never heard of you.
WW
Thats unfortunate. I was looking forward to your work.
BigPapaSean
What you made here was art. It was creative and fun and inspiring to me. I'm sorry you have to deal with these morons, unfortunate you have it harder because of your gender which is unfair to you and to many other creators. You're not letting us down, Kat. Do whatever it is you need to do, but try to get back up on your horse eventually. You have real fans and we live what you made here. Take it easy!
Alexander (TrueFaith27)
I know I speak for all of the genuine followers when I say that we're going to miss you immensely, but please keep putting yourself and your mental health first. It's been a great time seeing your creativity and passion turn into something we can all participate in and interact with. Lots of love, and I hope to see another project from you in the future! 💖💖
Christopher Mercado
This is absolutely dreadful it’s not right for someone as kind as you to have to go through this. Is there any way we could find you without them being able to locate your new accounts?
rafael castellanos
Please just find happiness. We love your art
Buttery Buttcheeks
Are you going to keep the twitter
Dr.Genesect
I know most of us are sorry to hear this happened to you totty, but we also know that the thing you need most is time away from these weirdos. Just know there will always be a fanbase rooting for you whatever you are doing, online or off! ❤️
Ryan Bruchert
Do whatever you need to do for your health and I'm so sorry to hear about this. Just know you're appreciated and while malicious they are trolls, jealous of your success. Take all the time you need.
David Gaynor
Thank you for being open with us when you didn't have to be. We will definitely miss you. I hope things get better from here on. I have always thought of Sam Hyde as a terrible person, even if he didn't do anything directly he lead his terrible community to you. We'll miss you Kat, much love.
