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.

There is not a lot in life that scares me anymore. However the loss of this site does just that. I'm a relative newcome to the site but I see how it gives me focus and goals. Please don't give in

      Hi @Arushi, welcome to TransPulse and thanks for sharing. Your story sounds familiar to me in some ways: I used to go out dressed femme exclusively at night and received a lot of attention from guys. Back then I had no interest in them, mainly since their attention so often resembled sexual harassment. But that was 12 years ago and a lot has changed. Now I am exclusively into guys, and proudly trans.    You ask are you wrong to crossdress; I would say absolutely not. It sounds as if this urge comes from a place deep within you, and I doubt you could suppress it for long if you tried. You also describe no harms that have resulted from your crossdressing. But maybe the real question is how do you feel about it? Leaving aside the societal stigma that can surround crossdressing, do you feel there is anything wrong with your behaviour? And lastly, does your wife know? If not, then that may be a problem. But if so, then imo the problem is in not being open with your wife, not in crossdressing. Crossdressing is a morally neutral act.

      I am opening up for the first time to someone other than myself. A bit about me; I am an Asian Indian male, 45 , married and dad, working professional from Portland. I have very mixed body features. I don’t have much hair on me and I wax so have a smooth body all over, light wheatish skin color, nicely done eyebrows and definitely size B manboobs, 6’2” tall and slightly curvy body, so I look like a tall woman when I am all dressed up. Growing Up; At a very young age , I got very intrigued with Wigs and Bra’s. I used to try on Bra’s starting age 14 and stuffed them up with socks. I used to roam wearing panties , and gown , usually taken off my dryers from my neighbors laundry. I remember this one weekend , I was all by myself and tried makeup for the first time and did my best , let’s just say it wasn’t bad for my first time. That was my best weekend being in woman clothing’s all day long around the house.  As I moved out of the house for college , I started freely and frequently cross dress, I bought my own silicone breasts , bra’s , panties  and dresses. I used to go to thrift stores and Ross, pick up the best in the lot, 44DD size and go into changing room and try them on with my Silicone boobs. I used to look for slightly worn panties , to make me feel I have been wearing them for ages. I got some cheap makeup, eyeliner, lipstick, foundation and the whole Shabang and 4-5 beautiful wigs. I had a closet full of items . Every Sunday, I would spend 3 hours dressing up , and sneaking out in public in my best woman attire, I used to get compliments all the time, many guys even approached me , I was flattered but never felt aroused for guys. Only when woman would stare , I would get a bulge .  Today: I still have a collection of cross dressing items and really good stuff from Sephora. I still cross dress and roam around in the streets of SF during my work travels (when I am off work) , you may run into me on one of my work trips. My wife and kids go on trips to visit my in laws for a month in summer, that’s when I am always dressed like a woman all around, with nail polish done too. I so feel in my element dressed as a woman. Sexual preference: I am into Woman, dominating woman that would control me, dress me up and take me on a girls night out. Make out with me in ladies room . Am I wrong in doing so? Should suppress my desires to cross dress?

      Yesterday I appeared on Brisbane community radio station 4ZZZ discussing the Cass Review, the recent NHS-sponsored review of gender-affirming care for kids in the UK. This is a seismic event for trans kids and their families worldwide, or as I said yesterday, “a world-class piece of anti-trans propaganda”. I have researched this solidly for the past month and will have waaaay more to say on the topic, but for now I hope you’ll listen to this quick overview. The episode is available to stream as a podcast via Spotify and Apple Podcasts.   Trigger warnings: transphobic healthcare, sexualisation of children (touched on briefly, but it is upsetting).   My heart goes out to trans kids and their families in the UK and anywhere else these policies are being enacted.   https://open.spotify.com/episode/3LAHs3VZB8zuGWGt41rzaL?si=BRUHUvz3QmWr5cyCEYyB0Q&context=spotify%3Ashow%3A3Jay63nMJ67bBMI9M59tKe

      No, though I am generally happy with my life. Transitioning later in life has left me in a position where I don't pass, and it sometimes confuses people, which makes me sad. I am able to live quite normally due to a supportive community, but I neither chose nor wanted to be trans, so I do hold a level of conflict with it. Early in my transition, my psychologist told me I needed to come to terms with my new role (but she had no advice how to do this) or I wouldn't find peace, and I doubt I ever will. I have learned to live with this, and I am trying to make the most of my time, but true peace and happiness has eluded me.   Hugs,   Allie

      My wife and I love to cook together, so we have started to create a recipe book to collect all the great flavors we've cooked over the years. These are amongst my favorites.

      lol Now logarithmic is a word I haven’t heard since I was in High School in the mid 60s. @Mirrabooka.  We used to use logarithms to be able to do higher level math.  Of course this was before calculators,  we also used slide rules.  The first personal calculators that were capable of more than more than simple math cost hundreds of dollars.  And only came out in the mid 70s.   Today you carry a very capable computer in your pocket or even on your wrist.
