Sorry you had to go through all that Birdy but glad I have found you on Substack. I miss you on Instagram and haven’t seen you on YouTube for a while. You have a new subscriber. I will be buying your new calendar soon too.
Dear Birdy, hello from the West coast of the USA. First off for the longest time as I have been reading this I thought Ren was female...but I figured it out near the middle. Also, this whole thing is a total bummer. I imagine this has all happened in England yes? Well, I love your art. I really love your self expression. I really love that you make / made a living form your art. What can I say? Ultimately it seems social media is somewhat to blame. In the olden days this all would've been figured out in a much less public way. Truly. We are all, each of us to a certain extent, victims of the age we are living in. I wish I could sit for tea with you and then we could go to the art studio and make art while listening to good music. I was cancelled to by putting up a meme in 2021 or so. Lost a job...my cancellation has been more of a trickle than yours. Standing up for what is true has been very difficult. I want to trade you my poetry books for a t-shirt or sweatshirt. Anyway. I hear you. I am out here in the abyss of the world dear and I hear you.
Iv been through something similar in the work environment, though the emotional effects are not confined to work and it was a diabolical experience and made me a target for wannabe work bullies and LGBT opportunists! The latest one was two weeks ago. I have a Donald Trump picture on my desk for 8 years!, the self appointed office LGBT activist comes to me and said she finds it offensive suddenly ( probably because he won) she assumed I’d take it down, of course I’m not. Anyway, the meetings with management have commenced and I’m on the “disciplinary procedure” pathway now to unemployment. Thank you for making me feel less lonely.
