About Various Unsubstantiated Accusations , CrunchyCrowe / CrunchyCaws PROOF / CONTEXT

Firstly, Posting this just so I have somewhere to link people who bring it up, and tumblr is a place that wont limit my response, and have people only reply to single out of context tweets. - which is what started this whole thing in the first place. This is about accusations that are at time of writing, years old, but still crop up in my day-to day, because the rumors keep ruminating and self-sustain in their own echo chambers as fact, without a DIRECT and VERY VISABLE response. Also, people who I have blocked on twitter, can see this if they choose to.

Originally, I considered one out of context tweet not worth making any kind of deal out of, and id just block people who took a very incorrect and disingenuous read of my words. But it spiraled into serious accusations of my character with little more than "Crunchy supports this thing and is a bad person" When there is not a single screenshot of me saying anything of the sort, because I did not, and I assumed that with people taking time to read, it would straighten itself out. I was wrong.

If someone won't take the time to read my side of the issue, then I would argue that they are not someone to trust with serious accusations, as they are someone who won't look at the source, and therefore, won't know enough about me or the situation, to hurl serious accusations.

I apricate that fandoms these days want everyone to be the best versions of themselves, and thrive for accountability.

It's annoying that the flip side of that coin is when people are wrong. A harmful / untrue rumor will stick to someone forever, and actively muddle the water for everyone: the people that did the accusing, the person accused, and any actual victims that need the support and to be believed.

Believe victims, reserve judgement for people saying things without clear proof because it's cool to be the call-outer.

I always have, and will apologize and admit when I'm wrong and correct myself, in every event that happens. I did so recently on a sketchbook I took too long to deliver, immediately corrected my actions, and hired a manager to make sure everything STAYED right going forward, and the same issue would not repeat itself. Proof / context - My victim stating that the issue is resolved - https://twitter.com/remygryph/status/1718328170531758099 Positive change moving forward, Proof- https://twitter.com/CrunchyCaws/status/1718380185869750685

Earlier AND later in this post, I even admit I'm wrong, multiple times, over multiple things, openly. I will own up to my incorrect actions in every case it happens. Because It happens, people are wrong sometimes, and doubling down on being wrong is not a mature course of action. I find it frustrating that that's what I'm running into with my accusers, simply because they don't want to be wrong.

I have an ACTIVE track record of APOLOGIZING AND MAKING THINGS RIGHT.

If someone is out there claiming I'm actively causing any harm, or am a bad person in some way, ask for the evidence. ask to see victims stories, and support the people who need that support to be made whole.

I WILL POST, SUPPORT, APOLOGIZE, AND MAKE RIGHT - /ANYTHING/ - IVE ACTUALLY DONE.

I DON'T SUPPORT HEARSAY. That's the thing I said that made everyone upset. I get that on the internet, especially in younger circles it's not a popular opinion. Cool, I'll take that criticism, and continue not spreading things I might be unsure of. Scandalous.

WHO WAS THE ORIGINAL POST ABOUT!!?? WHAT DID YOU DO!!?? JUST BE CLEAR !!

I made a vague post about the FURRY FANDOM.

EVERY "PROOF" of me supporting X, Y, or Z, is all circumstantial and bookended with the logical fallacy of applying emotional manipulation, and putting the burden of proof on me, which if you don't know what those are - APPEAL TO EMOTION and BURDEN OF PROOF <- Click them and learn! I am trying to refute everything I can, with as much evidence and context as possible, without appealing to anyone's emotions to the best of my ability.

People thought i was talking about a warriorcat event, when I haven't been active in the fandom for over 10 years. I got dragged in because someone else who followed me, who was STILL IN warriors, applied my words to something i had little to no context for and was not apart of. This original post where I was QRT'd (not by the later mentioned call-outer, who is the continuing problem, by someone I'm on fine terms with) in relation to the situation in the FIRST place- was deleted, because the original poster realized they had made a mistake in dragging me into something I had nothing to do with, apologized, and we are chill with each other.

This shouldn't be an issue.

This was an "if the shoe fits" post. I was not speaking on the situation, but someone put the shoe on, and was upset that the shoe did not fit. ??? ?? ?

I never have and never will make posts about situations i do not have full context and information for. This goes directly against what I believe to be right, you wont catch me doing it. So I would have NEVER commented specifically on a situation in a fandom I haven't participated in in years.

I will be attaching ALL the original context with direct links not JUST screen shots out of context.

The original call out posted ONLY out of context screenshots in an example of cherry picking, another way people will try to convince others of things that are untrue.

Original post that I made - https://twitter.com/CrunchyCaws/status/1626692009640579097

Additional replies and context, completely removed from the callout-ers post and not considered when attacking my character-

The callout post itself (posted a bit farther down) is making accusations of me blocking for reasons that are entirely ASSUMED, and assumed very incorrectly. I have people blocked ENTIRLEY for how they choose to interact with things online, pet peeves in how they interact with social media, certain fandoms, or characters as WHOLE that I find personally /literally/ triggering, and people that reply without reading the full thread. I have PROVABLY - THOUSANDS of people blocked, for impersonal, non-moral reasons. https://twitter.com/CrunchyCaws/status/1742626966820225535

It was unfortunate that people who happened to be on the pulse of this were in a community/circle that I have blocked for the reasons of not liking to view SPECIFIC WARRIORS CATS, PET PEEVE OR PERSONAL TASTE OF DISLIKING CERTAIN FANDOM THINGS- and NOT for any deep or significant moral reasons, literally JUST timeline curation. If you agree with the below, call-out narrative, then I know i can't and won't try change your mind. I know that kind of person probably haven't even read this far, and if you have read this far, you are not the kind of person I am referring to. If i was intense at them, or anyone at the time, I DO RIGHT HERE APOLOGISE FOR MY TONE. I did at the time, react emotionally because they came out with attacks and accusations, instead of asking me what I meant. When I tried to clarify my words, they just, wouldn't believe me. Ironic at best, hypocritical at worst, coming from someone asking to be believed at their word, not believing my word. I took actions and made blocks that were fueled by frustration, that was wrong of me, and for that, I am truly sorry, I'm not just saying that. I have no problem saying my past actions could have been more in tune with the very emotional and intense subject matter at hand, regardless of how blind sighted I was by it. I have since every day tried my best to not let this kind of thing happen again, culminating in this post, where I both apologize for my behavior, but am going to discredit allegations against me that do not have proof. You can see here in this below screenshot that I actually DO NOT have them blocked currently, because I believe in growth and change and clearing miscommunications and having everyone in a situation grow and learn. Once I realized this was a misreading me issue that was going to spiral, I am/was more than happy to make things right in any way I can and move forward in a way to make everyone feel heard and happy. Note that this person said I was defending someone I NEVER MENTIONED OR ALLUDED TO, and did not provide adequate proof of that, because what is posted here, is all I ever said. I have here provided FULL CONTEXT, which this person did not do. This is the smoking gun that is the root of the accusations being hurled at me on occasion. https://twitter.com/GalaxxAi/status/1627726642536763392

You can see I even unblocked them at the time, ( And currently have them unblocked) so that I could reply to try to be VERY CLEAR that this is not what my original post is about, and to dispel any worry, but I only got double downed on when i tried to explain that it was indeed, just a misreading of my words. They also accused me of Liking things I DO NOT SUPPORT OR PARTICIPATE IN, then NOT PROVIDING PROOF that I liked those things, BECAUSE I DID NOT, THERE IS NO PROOF OF THIS. Again only listed proof is me saying that I don't like it when people drag art I do not like to see onto my timeline, when they also dislike interacting with that kind of art. That if there are no victims, and all parties are in full consent and capable of giving that full consent, and if no harm is done, then things should be allowed to be in their own spaces, un-harassed. Art can sometimes make someone uncomfortable and be challenging. I can agree with that, and also dislike art that makes me personally uncomfortable. I stand by HARMLESS kinks being left alone. I did not state specifics on what those "kinks" were, if something is harming someone, that is not a kink, that's a CRIME, and not what I would ever defend. Here is a statement I made that call-outer did not see or address in any good faith. https://twitter.com/CrunchyCaws/status/1627762856006483970

making incorrect assumptions and framing me as participating in that content when I actually have STRONG feelings to the contrary is frustrating to say the least, and am trying to address it as neutrally as possible, but -( I DON'T LIKE MORALLY DUBIOUS ART THAT IS ACTVLEY CAUSING HARM TO PEOPLE MENTALLY OR PHYSICALLY- I hate it so much i don't want to see it AT ALL- AND HAVE STATED THIS BEFORE BUT THIS PERSON DID NOT ENGAGE WITH FULL CONTEXT OF MY MORALS.) there is no such evidence, substantiating this claim, this is just straight up slander. https://twitter.com/GalaxxAi/status/1627758261129601025

Literally accusing me of illegal and morally dubious behavior over "vibes." But its NOT ok for me to block someone over "vibes" in their words. or I'm doing a criminal behavior. A double standard. You can also see this person cutting off my context, again, so I could see why they would feel negatively about me saying I don't like it when people post things emotionally, and out of context, without thinking critically. Here is a link to my full post, which they did not reply to directly, or site correctly; https://twitter.com/CrunchyCaws/status/1574998020818493440 It is not my intention to put this person on blast, they have been through enough, and I know they just want no bad actors in their fandom, and I agree with the mission, nobody likes bad actors. This is why I dislike this in-fighting so much, we should be on the same side, but the effects of them being the inciting incident and slandering my character can no longer be ignored and I'm putting this all here in context for anyone looking for the full story, and if it goes any deeper. This is IT, thank you for your time if you went through this incredibly beefy read that I found largely unnecessary until I received significant harassment, and people literally trying to get me fired, or wishing actual death upon me as a result of me curating my space. I am putting out in an attempt to quell any lingering worries that I support any unscrupulous behavior. I DO NOT, I JUST CURATE CERTIAN WARRIOR CATS CHARACTERS, PEEVES, AND BEHAVIORS I DISLIKE SEEING, OUT OF MY TIMELINE.

👇 TLDR 👇

I made a post about the furry fandom as a whole, and behaviors i didn't agree with. The warrior cats community was having an active situation unfold, and they decided that my post must have been directly about their situation. It was not. When people started claiming my post was in fact about the warrior cats situation without proper evidence, I blocked them. This is the exact behavior i do not like. jumping onto people and situations without proper context and evidence to back up said claims. People took me blocking them for this behavior as admission of guilt. There was never a post anywhere in support of anyone, I was never involved and I did not interact with the situation outside of being dragged in against my will.

a giant wave has recently killed most of Saltclan's cats, leaving the newly appointed leader, Skystar, to deal with the aftermath. they must stay strong and guide the remaining cats through these turbulent times while adjusting to their new position.

We are totally done with all that. Over and out. No more. Let's do it again.

McWexler in Every Season

Anna Sawai training with Naginata for Shogun (2024). 😎

Naginata is a weapon used by Onna Musha (Female Warrior) who are non combatants that defends the castle and household. They act as the last line of defense to protect the lord, elderly and children in the event the enemy made it pass through the front line.

frame from the hollycinder pmv im making :>

it's been months and i still think about oots where dovewing and ivypool are cinderheart and hollyleaf's kids. kids of a struggling single mom and their absent lesbian father

Zine piece i'm allowed to post now hehe

< Previous | First | Next >

Who's gonna tell him...........

THE GALS

domesticated teedle

In which a kittypet named Needle befriends Alderpaw and insists on taking Violet to join the Kin with her. She makes Molewhisker even more angry than canon

I used this kitty as a reference, I wanted to draw a Devon Rex :)

(Needletail variation requests are closed for now, tysm to everyone who sent one in!)

Never actually read a single Warrior Cats book, but watched enough AMV's and MAP's to have a basic understanding. Excuses to draw my boys as kitty cats.

Basic Plot under the read more for context:

The story is about Coalpaw who has been born with a starmark on his back. The clan assumes because of it, that he will be leader, following his grandfather and his uncle Strawstar in their pawprints.

He however outright refuses, the pressure and fear of failing being too much on the young kit.

So instead he decides to ignore his clan and asks Silentspeech, the medicine cat, to take him on as his apprentice. He won't be able to be both, so if he chooses this path, Starclan has to find a new figurehead, right?

Silentspeech himself had been a Kittypet, who had ran away from his two legs. Coming in wounded, Timberclan decided to help reluctantly, not trusting him and his dead quiet demeanor.

A few days before his planned trip to the Moonpond, right after Hazelnut's untimely death, Silentspeech is announced medicine cat. He can communicate with Starclan perfectly fine, but he doesn't stand behind their choices at all and thinks their prophecies are an utter waste of his time. If he can't change the prophecy, save somebody from their fate, then why tell him anway?

That is why he allows Coalpaw to become his apprentice, trying to see if Starclan can be outsmarted. Or at the least, if they have planned this outcome, to give the poor, young cat a rest from the other clanmates constantly nagging him about his possible future.

He kinda regrets it, since Coal is a bundle of energy and he'd rather sleep, but hey, nothing lost, nothing gained.

CW: war-related violence/death.

The sergeant doesn’t bother hiding his skepticism. “Over yonder,” he answers, head barely moving as he indicates a direction. The drawl in his voice marks him as a farmer. The darkness in his eyes screams soldier, survivor. “He’s takin’ inventory.”

“Thanks,” Legend answers, motioning for the others to lead the way. The sergeant clears his throat a second later. 

“He’s shoulderin’ a lot, ya hear? Best not waste his time with… follies.” 

Legend barely holds back a sigh. He gives the sergeant a two-fingered salute, ignoring the frown this earns him, and turns toward the grisly field in the distance. 

Twilight’s eyes are already watering. He takes a bandana from Wind with a quiet murmur of thanks, then ties it across his nose. 

“It’s muddy out there,” Four notes, squinting faintly against the sun. “But it hasn’t rained since we arrived in this world.”

Legend hopes it doesn’t need to be said, the why and how. He keeps his eyes on the stranger ahead, already cataloging what he can—lean frame, slight limp, confident posture, hair more red than blonde. The captain barely spares them a glance in return. 

“It’s blood,” Hyrule answers Four quietly. “Blood did that.”

“But that’s—” Sky’s mouth shuts with a click as they reach the first of the caltrops. Low wisps of black smoke scatter into thousands of buzzing flies. The field is ripe with bodies. 

“Oh,” someone whispers. Legend’s not sure who. He doesn’t look anywhere but at the captain, and still his stomach rolls from the stench and the constant, gluttonous buzz. 

“...accounted for yet,” a second-lieutenant is saying, her cold expression doing little to mask the grimness in her voice. “Seventy-two from Squabble Company; the remaining infantrymen will need to be reassigned.”

“I see. And Major Koza?”

The second-lieutenant flips a page in her stained notebook. “Unaccounted for.” Her eyes sweep over the field as if she might glimpse the major in question. She frowns when she spots Legend and the others instead. “Sir...”

The captain waves a hand dismissively. “Aries Company?”

Before she can answer, Time closes the distance between them. His boots squelch disturbingly. “I sincerely apologize, but we need to speak with you, Captain Link.”

The captain doesn’t so much as twitch. “Aries Company?” he repeats.

“Thirty-four and counting. They held the bank as long as they could.”

The captain steps over a severed hand with only a mild frown. “Make sure the field is cleared by sundown. We can’t afford disease to—”

“Captain Link,” Time tries again, and Legend can’t help but wince, “it really is urgent that we speak with you.”

The captain is slow to turn. What little emotion he shows can be found in the disdainful curl of his lip. “Whatever you wish to say will have to wait.”

“It really can’t,” Four begins quietly, but the sudden way the captain rests his hand on his sword pommel charges the air with fresh tension. 

“I’m afraid you caught me at a bad time,” he tells them with false charm, his smile never reaching his eyes. “Forgive me if I’m disinclined to care.” 

“We’ve been summoned from across timelines,” Sky explains hurriedly. Legend knows almost instantly that it’s the wrong thing to say. “The goddesses need us to—”

“Fuck the goddesses,” the captain answers succinctly. “I know why you’re here. Zelda warned me in a letter. I cannot fight two wars at once, and frankly, my allegiance is here.”

Wild speaks up for the first time in two days, his voice rasping slightly. “You don’t get it. Your entire world could be at stake.”

The captain laughs mirthlessly. It chills Legend in a way even his empty smile had not. “Look around,” he tells them, gesturing to the field. “It already is. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have letters of condolence to write.” He strides straight past them, clipping shoulders with Twilight. Swarms of flies orbit him like dead stars.

“What now?” Wind asks, pinching his nostrils with young, sword-calloused fingers. 

Legend sighs and resigns himself to an evening of misery. He spots pallets in the distance and knows the smell will be worse once the fires are lit. “You heard the man,” he answers tiredly. “The field needs clearing.”
