I haven’t gotten her spam, nor heard her talked about in a while. Did she finally get banned?

    A copycat spammer started sending gore pictures to people using the same Nicole copypasta text. A lot of people got upset and there was a flurry of discussion over like a 24h period. Some people seemed to think it was a serial killer and Nicole had been doxxed and killed. In reality if I recall right the picture was from a morgue somewhere in China.

    Anyway the whole thing led to a general “okay maybe the joke has run its course and we shouldn’t encourage this” type of moment and the sub was shut down. Presumably the spammer stopped spamming once they no longer received attention, but maybe the admins found and IP banned them or something. I have no idea.

    She and I started dating, and she’s had a lot less time for making Fediverse friends since starting her new job.

    Dozens of those accounts got banned. Whoever was behind them seems to have given up.

    Started pondering an orb while wearing jeans jorts and eating beans… and just never stopped.

    Nicole content was banned on LW. At first it was just the usual spam, but then multiple users received PMs of extremely violent NSFW content with what appeared to be Nicole.

    Won’t post what it was here, but you can go to the below link and find a comment from another user that marked it as a Spoiler. Note, it’s a trigger warning if you are sensitive to extreme violence/gore (no picture, just a text description).
