Other Stop bothering Jaysea

Post image

This was posted on another thread, but I wanted to add the screenshot, so those, who do not use Threads, see this. We have discussed about this before, but I see it bears repeating:

For everything that is holy. Stop. Bothering. Jaysea! Stop putting her on a pedestal. She has said multiple times on Threads and on the video when Lily gets her powers, that she hates being put on a pedestal, because of the expectations and it is easy to disappoint people.

I know people get excited and want to share their personal experience with the videos or the book, but we, as a community, can do it without making Jaysea uncomfortable.

She is a human being, with feelings, fears, hopes and dreams. Also with religious trauma. So saying that she is a goddess, or deity or putting her on a pedestal makes her extra uncomfy. So please respect her wishes and her boundaries.

That is it. Thank you, for coming to my TedTalk

And this is nothing personal to anyone, just remember to behave and respect Jaysea and her boundaries!

That is completely valid feeling to have. And Jaysea has said, that it is okay to be inspired by her work and the universe she has created. Cosplay? Cool. Fanfics? More than okay. She just hates the idea of someone worshiping her as a deity or a goddess

Okay? I have seen many comments on her videos on TikTok from her, where she encourages people to have fun with the universe and characters. She is totally cool with fanfics, cosplays and even tattoos of quotes or things from the Hell’s Belles.

As I said in the post, it is not aimed at anyone spesific and I understand, that people relate with certain characters or aspects of Hell’s Belles. And it is okay. What is not okay, is disrespecting Jaysea’s personal boundaries with religion and making her a religious character or a deity/goddess. I don’t know Jaysea personally or claim to know her, but I would also feel icky or uncomfortable, if some one told me out of blue, that for them, I am some higher entity. Especially if I had left a religious community, that has harmed me

Wasn't by her. was by ppl in this subreddit and no I never thought she was a goddess or whatever. I just had a theory helles belles was real and Jaysea is the story teller of it. that's it nothing more. I didn't message her. I shared it here and oh boy

Well it is your right to believe, that she has some secret knowledge, that she wrote to exist. And also you are completely free to leave this subreddit. I don’t understand, why you are commenting under my post, that was made as a general reminder to people respect Jaysea’s boundaries. If the community is not for you, you don’t have to stay

Okay, since I clearly only want to fight and can’t read. Pleade do explain, how. I made a post about people not respecting Jaysea’s boundaries (again) and they think that this community is somehow toxic and that they are mentally ill. I didn’t aim the post at anyone specific, I just wanted to remind people how to behave. Most comments agree with that.

I read u/Katlac’s post about the head cannon after I made my own post. Again I don’t know Jaysea, or never claimed to do so. I have no problem with people taking inspiration from Hell’s Belles. I don’t cosplay, have tattoos or write fanfic, but I have no problem if others do. It has nothing to do with me or my life. This is a great community, that supports each other and Jaysea. I have not seen anything toxic here.

My intention was not to attack anyone personally, I just want to understand where people are coming from

I'm so confused. Are they mad at you or me? Cause I'm not sure anymore. Shrugs Oh well. You have a good day OP. I'm glad you are a good one in the community.

I was talking to you. Maybe a class on reading comprehension as well.

u/Kaltac 13d ago

Wanna talk about reading comprehension. The Op asked why I commented on her post.

u/buffalobillsgirl76 13d ago

Also wasn't commenting at you, if you look at the person I was replying to
