I unsubscribed after reading Madison's thread. Anyone who's gotten stuck in a toxic work environment knows just how crushing it is mentally. Constant low-level anxiety, feelings of dread, and the inability to even decompress off the clock due to intruding thoughts, replayed arguments, feelings of being gaslit, and the knowledge that it's all going to happen again tomorrow. Combine that with the sexual assault allegations and it's not surprising at all that she'd self harm.

If even 10% of her story is true we're looking at systemic failures in the entire management chain both to recognize and triage toxic behavior, and to demonstrate professionalism and lead by example.

As someone who’s “dream job” has devolved into something I’m now actively looking to leave (albeit for somewhat less severe reasons than Madison described), I deeply empathize with what she’s feeling. Hope she can find some success in the future despite how much of a shitshow her tenure at LMG turned out to be.

I requested refunds from all their sponsors products. Hit em in the wallet where they seem to actually pay attention.
