I really don’t understand the Big Draw for ABDLs attending MAL when they are not accepting of that community. They refuse ABDL vendors and they don’t allow an official ABDL party on their schedule. I know because I’ve tried to get them onboard.

@leoba @mssprovenance This stock photo is really popular (and Google image search is scarily efficient). RECEPTIO just added some bookshelves for background. Which academic wouldn't dream of having such an attractive and loyal assistant?

As well as their legal advisor:

@mssprovenance Are you sure Noemi De Santis is an actual person? The picture above her name is a stock photo that can be found on various websites. So perhaps you were communicating with a bot - they can get nasty, it seems. Or else Dr de Santis is shy and doesn't want to show her face online.

When people start catching on, RECEPTIO starts pulling the imagesMore #receptiogate research
