August's Death A Publicity Stunt For His Music


Guest

Recommended Posts

How many times on the Internet do we hear that people may not be who or what we think they are?  We are by our supportive nature a place where our users receive the benefit of the doubt.  We assume a measure of truth until we are shown otherwise.  Many people here took August into their hearts and tried to help him.  Unfortunately we were deceived by a good actor who imitated death a lot better than he did life.  The fact is though he isn't dead.  As it turns out August and friends Olivia? and Randall? were 

Setting up A publicity stunt/prank to make his music famous.  The launch was suppossed to take place on Halloween at our expense.  It was foiled though by some detective work.

Some facts

Repeated requests for the obituary had no results.  Internet searches came up empty.

Requests for address to send flowers were ignored.

Heart Transplant receipients have hearts shipped to thir hospital as patents can't usually travel.  Supposedly August had to fly to where the heart was.  This just isn't done.

August's brother reported his cell phone was missing.  He claims August's ghost stole it.

At 3Am that phone was used to phone on call crisis supervisors.  The voice was confirmed to be August's.  They were phoned form the sound studio.  Mods could hear the echo in the background of what they said.  It was likely recorded to get a reaction to publish on the Internet. They didn't get the desired reactions as mods knew that ghosts don't call several people at 3Am just to save money during off peak hours.

August's group has been banned from the site and posts and articles were pulled down.  They were denied a planned Halloween launch of his music.  Calls to Randall and Olivia have not been returned.

SO what was really true about August?  Most likely not any of it was true.  It was all a sick joke at the expense of Transgender people. There is a reason we ask that you don't give out personal information such as addresses and phone numbers.  In the wrong hands they can be used against you for outing purposes.  There is absolutely no way on the Internet to know if people are who and what they say they are. Please keep your selves safe accordingly.  If you have talked to August by phone please let me know if you have any further trouble from August and his acting group.  There are legal steps to take if he does.

Believe it or not the guy got in around my ban system.  He deserves no explanation.  Fraud is fraud.  August is not welcome here.  The moderator who allowed his crap will be fired.  Yet another notch in August's belt.

We can not allow him to win over us Laura. If we allow that , then we lose, and losing is not an option for none of us .

Lets not lose our cool headed thinking over a blatant idiot. Sure, he fooled us, but we will be victorious in this , not August or whatever his name is. Peace and love to you Boss,,,,,, SharleahLynn

I had a VERY long chat with August on messenger. I saved the file so if any of the moderators or supervisors want it, please let me know. Laura, I am already planning on sending it to you and Sharleah and Monica have it and Karen read it off Shar's computer. It does answer alot of questions about what he did. I am by no means condoning it, so please dont get the wrong idea. I guess I was the only one he would talk to after he was found out. He did not ask to be able to come back here. I just wanted to let you all know. Like I said, any questions, feel free to ask.

      For that part, be glad you live in MS and not in CA or some other "paradise."    Unfortunately, right now in the USA it is about choices.  Choose to live in a mostly free state that doesn't want my gender to exist, or choose to live in a leftist place that accepts my gender but not my family or my faith, or how I want to live my life or the stuff I own.   As for the lawsuits... hiring a lawyer costs money.  And a "no fees unless you win" attorney probably won't take a case like this, as it is difficult to get money from folks who often don't have anything.  As they say, "it is hard to get blood from a turnip."

      There's a couple of things.  First, since so many LGBTQ+ folks often vote Democrat, it is simply assumed that "LGBTQ = Democrat."  And to many, Democrat = enemy.  The fact that some of us don't vote for Democrats comes as a surprise to many.  You wouldn't believe how many different times I have had to explain how I vote, that I don't like Biden, etc...   And then, there's the flamboyant, over-the-top appearance and behavior of some.  When average folks see strange dress, wild colors, and the occasional provocative behavior in the news, they assume that it is the norm and that all LGBTQ+ folks are like that.  To them, "LGBTQ = weird."    I think that @Abigail Genevieve is right, part of it is lousy marketing.  And that will take a ton of undoing, because it has been going on for years.

      Personally, I despise the antics of the "swing" states. Double-minded and unstable, shifting every time the wind blows.  OK, so the Lt Governor of Georgia doesn't like Trump.  Small potatoes.... given the 2020 results, nobody counts on Georgia anyways.

      Its midnight here...so, technically morning   I had a really weird evening, and learned something new about politics.  My sister, who is running for public office as our township constable, received a "present" today, left on the hood of her patrol car.  An axe!  Wrapped in a bundle of sticks (dowels?).  The sheriff received one also, and a couple other candidates.  Now, my first thought was it was meant as a threat, and I was freaked out when she told me.  But she wisely identified it as political criticism:   During the 2020 election, a small dissident minority objected to our sheriff, and labeled him "Mussolini."  Apparently the symbol of the F@scist Party came from ancient Rome.  An axe, circled with rods, and the whole bundle was called "fasces" and represented the authority of the state.  Roman officials would have them symbolically carried ahead of them through the city on parade.  Other nations used it too, including the USA.  But since the 1920s, it is mostly associated with a certain political party.  Either I was never taught this in high school, or I didn't notice it.    So, it appears that this election season will have some interesting aspects.  And I have been asked to put gold spray paint on an axe, to make it like a trophy.

      Welcome @Vivelacors!  For myself and many others here it is a similar theme.  But, I can assure it's never too late.  I hope that you will discover that as you explore and connect with more of us on the Forum.    You've already taken the most important first step ... Self-Affirmation.  I am wishing you the best in continuing this process. Deep breaths ... One step at a time

      I can remember as a teenager being a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints and living in the bible belt. It was always a little hard-I think religion is just tricky anyway.    I was referred to a couple of ladies at church by my mum who gave me very good advice.  One has known those who are are trans- and how they approched it.    The other has two people in their life who identify differently. They also gave other ideas to assist me.     I do like ideas though.

      If I am leaving the house I will almost always do makeup.  Not over-the-top but enough to feminize my face (eye shadow, mascara), lipstick, and a light cover of a concealer and foundation. I found my favorite lipsticks are Maybelline.  But the concealer/foundation I 'discovered' in Neutrogena Hydro Boost - Hyaluronic Acid based.  For 'older' gals like me I find it moisturizes and doesn't dry into those annoying fine lines (I have enough of those already).    Hopefully, after facial hair removal I might not feel the need as much.

      I think it just comes down to a lot of people not knowing anything about the lgbtq+ community besides what reactionaries online and on TV say. In my experience, people who have a lot more day-to-day contact with gay and trans people, have lgbtq+ friends or family, coworkers, etc. are a lot more accepting because they know an lgbtq+ person, and know that we aren't anything like what the people on TV say we are.

      Actually the bill seems to be so thoroughly confusing that I doubt that enforcement is even possible.  It could however incite vigilante style actions.  A false accusation against a "looks challenged" Cis woman is very likely to happen early on.  So what will happen in the case of those situations?  I have a script in mind over the sad average looking daughter of one of the legislators getting tangled into one of those situations.  I don't know whether it would be a comedy or a tragedy at the minute.

      I don't know yet. I'm sure there is going to be a big crowd. I also would have to keep up with the kids and probably won't enjoy myself mostly.
