I been sat up, feeling sick thinking, I can't drop those names. If your initials are M N or A M and the previously linked info from ACC file is yours, you can complain to Usufono, I know you have her contact details, but you might want to go to wider ACC. Who knows really

Tuesday morning I will be divulging names and deets of the leaked parties as ACC continues to try and protect the people who made the mistakes. I'm sorry to the people involved if it comes to that. I thought I never would, but then I expected a govt entity to act with some decorum

Imagine if somebody ACC claims is unhinged, rather than rightfully pissed, knew your name, where you went to the Doctor, how hard your struggles were, and could make a decent guess as to why you struggle with them. Gross right? If we had the same recovery partner around Jun-Sep 24, could be you

Like to highlight this move from holidaybrain further. Somebody who, it bears again saying I have documented proof failed some very simple single digit addition in this report, which was totally right except for my stability ofc. The constant vexxedness came with the reveal, it has also been stable

Gonna be real with you, I would have expected to need to have kicked off in person before "ignore the crazy" And today I found the full names of two ACC clients who were being considered for the Sept appt. Not going to publish those for obvious reasons, I shouldn't know those names. Priv a joke

Included here is the intro of the CW:suicide attempt, and how I spoke to ACC prior to reading the OIA. Underlined are points I take issue with, such as regarding cannabis, which I had recently resumed, making "increased" true, but misleading. Blacked out are my own and uninvolved names.
The rescinded request for mediation, actually dated from September 2024, not October.

It reads, "Hey Usufono,

Im[sic, just assume sic] not upset, just exhausted. I'd like to be referred to mediation as they told me that I cant refer it. [Redacted] told me if I left early this was a wash, but we had an agreement per the previous mediation*. This is just going to go on and on otherwise, and ive done this dance.

I provided the missing information today, can provide it again in writing if required prior to mediation.

You've been awesome**, [Redacted] was nice enough, the process is torture though.

Kind regards,

[Redacted]


*Author's note: the previous mediation had agreed that the appt prior, with Ndoc, would be the final appointment. the author agreed to the one above being told that this was where the errors could be corrected]

** If I knew then, lmaoThe introduction of the suicide attempt and all provided context. Redacted is a doctor I've never met. Underlined are points I take issue with.

From what I understand, POTS is basically fainting when you stand up. Verifiably not me.

Again, just taking issue with the disingenuous choice of the word "increased" here regarding cannabis use.

This time I'm gonna crow a little about what I've done. 2 yr ago I was basically mute. Small additions, make bed, adopt dog, started on languages (dropped down to 1 after a few months, still learning) turned a disagreeable patch of clay into a rich foot of topsoil, by spade. Begun to learn music

For day 8, the final boss fight. I'm gonna go and say the absolute tactical genius on display at the finale of Y4 just steals it for me. It's so dumb, but I like the way it ties back with Akiyama's origin with some of the spectacle

Goofed day 6's formatting, so it's not in thread. Gotta give the favourite antagonist to Sagawa. He might not be as menacing, or physically imposing as some of the other enemies, but the difference in his dynamic compared to traditional big bads really makes him stand out.

Have I requested specifically the context surrounding some of these incidents be released to me? Yes, many times. Most recently I told the privacy lot they were disgusting cunts if they thought anybody's privacy outranked mine in this sitch. They're considering no redactions atm

Not my way, there have been times I wished it was, but it isn't. It's still a trial to suffer under that, I don't have the benefit of being an unfeeling bureucracy with a captive audience, just hurt, anger and indignation to turn back against them. I'd rather just talk to the mediators though. Fin

Most of the reasons appear way back pre vitriol, I told them I don't mind how many reasons their mediators before they talk to me. Enough is enough. It was enough fuckin ages ago, obviously. It's felt at times like they're trying to drive me to that suicide attempt I never made. 13/

Every door to resolution was closed, but I'm cognizant even if you're on my side to this point, you'd probably flip teams pretty quick at a couple of the emails at least, RPs began asking why I want to speak to mediators. I told them to scroll up. I'm maintaining that position. 12/

3 months agoish After ACC wouldn't listen, after they were made aware that while the decision is deferred I can't access advocacy, that the HDC p much said "well that IS what we deal with, but not acc," after I'd offered to forswear(recently rescinded) any compensation, I started being a dick 11/

OIA2 contains at least one email predating the alteration which states it isn't even the first time i'd asked RP1 to cease contacting me after requesting a new Recovery Partner. After this we enter the realm of RPs 2&3. This started off promising, but was just new faces on a stonewall. 10/

I requested a second OIA, but this time real buddhist with the everything. Pretty much got the same thing, but RP1 did alter something idk what, and leave a signature the date before OIA2 was sent. The xmas break happened between request and sending, but that was expected. 9/

I stopped delving the OIA, and started saying we had to iron out a way forward, coz this is just fucked at that point and I'm only doing all this shit one more time, so I want it fuckin concrete. I began requesting a change from RP1, repeatedly. I made clear I wanted RP1 nowhere near it. 8/

The GP clinic named as where that was reported to be recorded did confirm that they've never heard of me, which was a relief, these records are supposed to be inviolate truths right? Even I doubted. I allegedly told my aunt which, just gonna do a trust me bro on that and say wasn't ever me then. 7/

Should note I twice requested mediation in said Oct. The first request of which, I did withdraw. Still with RP1 at this point, NDoc reckons they would have said same if I didn't try and end myself a couple of weeks before our interview. 6/

Turns out the appt was to try and stick me with Cannabis Abuse Disorder, which I had ceased using for several years prior to last. This took place Oct2024 Obviously I took issue with that, requested the 1st OIA I received, learned about the suicide attempt somewhere around here. 5/

RP1 told me ACC didn't require the recording, I chose to correct hard info such as my age at the time of the event, and the unrelated error that having n siblings(a number correctly recorded) means I am the eldest of n+1, not n children. We had an appointment with a Dr this time, so no biggie? 4/

While reading over the report NDoc generated, I noted that the way some of what I said had been transcribed shifted the meaning. It was understandable, but a miscommunication and as far as I was aware at this time the major issue. I offered RP1 a recording of the phone portion to illustrate. 3/

Day6 of #YakuzaChallenge Favourite minigame goes to Haruka's idol gig. From memory the dance battles she and Akiyama could have weren't quite on the same level. I think Yakuza is the only series I've played where best minigame doesn't go to fishing

It was way more jarring to have those games front and centre on the eShop than to think about them on Steam too. Steam doesn't shove them in your face, but you had to wade through titty tetris city to get to the games on a nintendo product

It's gotta take a kinda selfish mindset to square away words like legend and due credit aye. Like fair enough if he'd been solo evading the cops and dropping off pressies or something. But it's mad controlling to steal 4 years of 3 lives, especially while they're still learning how to human. Gross

Image shamelessly stolen, but allow me to present the wisest figure in gaming. The pinnacle of NPCs. Pork bun vendor from Sleeping Dogs. Which incidentally, great game. Writing is hit or miss, but as you can see the hits are HITS
