1/9 After everything that's happened, I've decided to donate $500 to @trevorproject.bsky.social to directly support the work they do for trans people. I want to apologize to the trans community for the hurt caused by my recent Fem Malfoy artwork on Twitter/X, and for my silence here on Bluesky.

2/9 For those unaware, I recently made a gender-bent Malfoy artwork over on Twitter as part of a popular art Trend there. I wasn't thinking about JK Rowling or politics. I simply loved the character design and wanted to make my own version. There was no hidden message or intention to hurt anyone.

3/9 But something I made purely for fun ended up becoming something much bigger than I ever expected. I want to make this absolutely clear: I do not support JK Rowling's transphobic views, nor was my artwork intended to promote her beliefs or fund any of her anti-trans champaigns.

5/9 I'm also painfully aware that my artwork attracted people who used it as an excuse to spread hateful and transphobic comments on twitter. Seeing something I create being used to spread hatred towards a community I support is my worst nightmare and has been really upsetting for me.

6/9 I want to make it absolutely clear that those people are NOT welcomed in my community, nor do I consider them my fans. This donation is also my way of showing where I stand. I don't want there to be any doubt about my support for trans people or the wider LGBTQ community.

7/9 I stayed silent on Bluesky because I never posted the artwork here and didn't want to bring the controversy onto another platform. But I understand how that silence may have felt dismissive. I'm sorry. I've been overwhelmed by everything and never meant to ignore anyone's concerns.
