Housekeeping 22, JUN 2023 - Didn't Want to Discuss This Again, But Here We Are (Patreon)

Let's get straight to the point.
The claims made on Twitter are patently 100% completely untrue.
Badon Hill Group, LLC is a marketing, consulting, rental property management (through 2022), and state-certified and licensed nursery (plants, not children). It is an umbrella company.
The finances of Badon Hill Group LLC and Malcontent News are 100% divided. There is also an editorial firewall between Malcontent News and Badon Hill Group, LLC. We do not do any news coverage for any of our client companies, which range from small businesses to the Fortune 100.
Malcontent News draws benefits from the equipment and resources of Badon Hill Group, LLC, including studio access, camera equipment, lighting, sound equipment, and certain software and technology, such as the Adobe Premiere Suite. This access is permitted to support Malcontent News. There is no pass-through billing or sub-account payments. It is accessed freely.
Badon Hill Group is cash flow positive (Duns & Bradstreet D-U-N-S 117374352) and pays its own bills and operating expenses. I mentioned in the conversation that a business loan with Badon Hill Group would be paid off before the end of the year. That would improve my personal cash flow as I am losing $4,000 a month in personal income because I am minimally involved in the business consulting side of the house. That $4,000 a month number is not secret - or new - I've mentioned it on TikTok, in lives, and among staff members for months, if not over a year. The payment on the loan? $865 a month. So I can go to losing $3100 a month. But none of this has anything to do with Patreon or your money.
I didn't want to discuss this again, and I don't want to discuss it going forward. I would never put anything in the public domain that I could not back up with logs from Microsoft Teams, e-mails, texts, etc. Just as we have never put anything in the public domain with you that we couldn't back up with supporting information.
The idea behind his claim was to create a strong emotional response and set a trap.
I have four choices now.
First - I can release e-mails, texts, Teams messages, and messages through Twitter and show that everything I've said is 100% true. The trap that's been set is now I'm petty for releasing it. You shouldn't share those private conversations.
Second - I can ignore it altogether. But for some, silence then becomes an admission of guilt. So there is the second trap.
Third - I can declare that the information being spread about me is a 100% lie and ask everyone to move forward. It's still a trap. Because some will want option one, some will equate it to option two.
There is a fourth option, but I won't mention it because mentioning it is a trap.
No matter what I do next, the outcome for some is negative.
But I can't sit back and let a false statement that twisted my words go by, so I am going to take the high road - which is option three. I'm appealing to everyone to please move on. I'm not asking you to pick a side; this isn't mom and dad fighting over who gets the sofa they bought six months ago - despite the fact that some want to turn that into this.
I'm mentally, physically, and emotionally exhausted. Thankfully, the analyst team is still working, as is the work on our new map and website updates. I have no time to deal with false attacks, fake claims, idle threats, harassing texts, and threats or have my words in a meeting being twisted into something that wasn't said.
Do not go after Rob. Do not go after Linnea. Do not go after Yewleea. Please, move on.
If you have direct concerns, you can message me personally.
Thank you for your time and consideration, and thank you for your support.
