I'd like to address the post made by Jordin Manning
In my video about Tyler I said that when I mess up, I hope that I'm able to listen, grow, and do my best to never hurt the community again.
I am here to admit that I messed up, and I messed up hugely. Even that is a gross understatement.
I helped put Mimi Daisuki as a moderator of Kei Club. This is a group of mainly newbies to J-fashion and people who are just lovers of the aesthetic.
When we were vetting applications for new moderators, I was unaware of the full scope of the drama and the things Mimi has done. Jordin was nice enough to approach me in a very calm manner and the Google doc showing receipts.
To be honest, I did not listen. I projected my own trauma and circumstances of some of the things I had experienced into her and ignored the rest. This is not an excuse.
As many of you know, I have stepped down as being a mod for Kei Club and have begun distancing myself from them. I don't talk to, nor interact with Mimi and barely with the other mods.
I owe everyone an apology, especially Kei Club and their members for allowing this to happen. I do not expect the community to accept my apology. I just want to do what is right and not continue this cycle.
I do not consider myself a leader in the community, nor do I want any sort of leadership role. Especially when this was a lesson I had to learn.
I'm sorry for putting a dangerous person in a leadership position in the community we try to keep safe and open for newbies, minors, and other vulnerable people.
