#HOW WAS TGWDLM 5 YEARS AGO?????

[iisthings]

[thepandalion]

has anybody already made the post about the very real possibility that pete waited 5 years for that hot chocolate

[starcanwrecked-confessions]

Do we know which year TGWDLM is set in? Because the office setting feels so old fashioned to me as an office worker. Like what do you mean your excuse for not handing in your report to your boss is the printers? Just email it to him? And Charlotte’s telephone, girl where is your headset? I know that covid sped up technology in the workplace so many I’m naive about how things were pre-covid. but the environment they’re portraying looks like an office of 20 years ago, not 5

It does take place in 2018, I guess CCRP is just behind on tech

[amazingmsme]

Hcs that have come to my mind after recent asks youve gotten:

1) Tinky kicks his left leg like a dog whenever someone (Ted!!) scratches his belly. He also sticks his tongue out too, he basically becomes a docile housepet to his ler (which Wiggly thinks is a weakness Tinky needs to work on !!!)

2) Wilbur absolutely accidentally taught the lib about tickles. He never minded nor cared for it, but he kinda enjoys when it happens. I can see Wiggly being like "So... if I do this- you humans will laugh? Just like that?" And Wilburs like "Uhuh, usually yeah. Now it does differ from man to man, but you're on the right track pal." And not bat an eye abt whats abt to go down. (idk something about characters w accents that makes brain go agdkzljc-)

3) First time (or one of the times) Curt brought Tati home to his ma's place is when she found out he was ticklish. His ma, bein an absolutely sweet mother, either A) gives the two a room alone but warns Tati that Curt's got a sensitive neck & ears OR 2) is so excited to see her son, who in return is happy to see her, that she gets all gushy and starts grabbing his cheeks like a little boy. For a sec Curt forgets Tati's there, but when Mama Mega starts lightly tickling him he recoils in embarassed giggles.

(I love the uprise of the starkid/tcb tk community)

THESE ARE LITERAL PERFECTION OMG I’M SMILING LIKE A DORK KICKING MY FEET IN THE AIR & GIGGLING

Tinky ABSOLUTELY acts like a cute lil puppy when he’s tickled & it honestly endears Ted to him & that bastard is such a mean tease & is still pretty damn salty about his situation, so he really doesn’t hold back! Wiggly walks in on them & is like “EUGH! Have some respect for yourself!”

Bro you’re making me simp for the man decked out in denim head to toe😭 (I was when Black Friday first came out, it was just overshadowed by MacNamera & by now I lowkey forgot about him) but he’s so smooth about it & brushes it off to keep talking but Wiggly is hung up on that & his smile just keeps growing & is he closer? Wilbur’s definitely sure he’s closer. & now he’s starting to catch on & tries to back track & say how he isn’t ticklish but most people are, but it’s little kid shit, really, far beneath someone like you but Wiggly insists that he be taught about this “fun, silly little weakness you all share” & calls his brothers to help

Dude Curt’s mom is so embarrassing, idk how he can stand it! She loves him so much & just wants him to be happy but damn she doesn’t have to be so cringe about it! Tati is sooo amused & thinks it’s really sweet that he has such a great relationship with his mom (she’s totally not jealous or anything) & teased him about being a mama’s boy. But I feel like his mom would accidentally tickle him & then tell her how she’s “gotta be careful” with him because he’s “always been a sensitive one” & he’s like “OKAY MOM BYE” & once they’re alone & they get some things off their chest, Tatiana decides he could really use some cheering up & puts that information to good use

& bro I had no idea there were so many of us! It’s not like 5 years ago when it felt like I was out here all by my lonesome (god I can’t believe it’s been that long since tgwdlm)

[conipow]

Thinking about how 5 years ago I had to ask my mom in order to fund TGWDLM and get the digital ticket, and now I'm an adult with a job and I spent my own money to help fund NPMD and I've already preordered the digital ticket. Not to brag, I'm just proud of how much I've grown over the years and how much I've been able to support the shows and people who bring me so much joy. Anyway, happy opening night to NPMD, and happy 5 more days for those of us getting the digital ticket!

[musicalisht]

for no reason in particular i decided to rank all the starkid shows

it’s 12:15 am and i have an assignment due at 9 am lets gooooo

12. MAMD - ngl this show is pretty hilarious just not quite as memorable as the others imo and i say this because i don’t remember it all that well past the one time i saw it a few years ago

11. Ani - also very funny and i’ve seen it multiple times and for whatever reason the line “it’s a humorous play on words... that’s where the comedy comes in” is in my daily vocabulary. it’s probably the show i quote the most just because of that one line. and it’s a star wars parody that gives me feel good 80s movie vibes and i love that. but something has to be this far down and i’m sorry it’s gotta be Ani. 

10. Black Friday - idk if it was because i was hyped after tgwdlm and had high expectations but honestly the only Starkid show that I kinda didn’t like right away. like i love Dylan and his monologue-y songs but they felt so out of place I was just taken out of it. That being said, all the songs slap and I’m so glad they’re all on spotify so I can add them to my playlists. It was also a bit darker and required some world building and honestly I think I just wasn’t expecting it. Probably in reality I’d rank it same level as Ani, but again I LOVE the music thank you Jeff Blim.

9. Firebringer - Very fun show. Also had high-ish expectations because Meredith and Lauren were leads and I was excited for the first female led show and maybe they weren’t exactly met at first, but got really close, and then I came around afterwards. It’s funny and I loved all the characters and the music is so good and fits the theme really well. 

8. A Very Potter Senior Year - every time i watch this (particularly near the end) i’m in tears. It’s so good because Harry Potter is saying goodbye, and the AVPM trilogy is saying goodbye, and the Harry Potter movies/hype was declining, and like I watched it again when I graduated high school and my point is there is a lot of emotional charge at the end of the show, but the whole thing is so fucking funny. I’m gonna be honest though, least favorite of the three AVPM shows, not just because of the way they filmed it but because I don’t remember most of the character conflicts and stories for this show.

7. A Very Potter Musical - I mean it’s really the first one that got them attention how can you not love avpm? Great comedy, great music, great show. I think I lied earlier, I probably quote AVPM more often than Ani.

6. Starship - The Little Mermaid meets aliens, I love it. Also, very great music, arguably the best villain songs of any starkid show have to go to Pincer and Junior. Also one of the best love songs?? An incredible I Want Song. And like the planet of bugs they create is so bright and colorful even though they’re limited by budget and the stage, etc., and all the puppets are so cool. It’s just a very good show that is very slept on please watch Starship.

5. Trail to Oregon - So this came out when I was learning about the Oregon trail  so this was pretty fun for me. I think this was probably the second or third show I ever watched (first being AVPM) so ngl I have some bias towards it, but the music is good and there are only a few characters to keep track of so I remember them pretty well. The gag of Joey playing all the other characters in Independence is just insanely fun to watch (a performance really only bested by brian in solve it squad) and I don’t care how “mature” I’m supposed to be, I will always laugh at the fart jokes at the end of the show (btw, watch with captions it’s so entertaining).

4. Holy Musical Batman - yes at Batman references, yes at having a similar story to the lego batman movie, and yes at Jeff Blim playing a psycho character. It just feels very classic cartoon inspired, especially with all the puns (which if you didn’t know is a humorous play on words, and that’s where the comedy comes in). I rewatched part of the show the other day, and honestly still makes me laugh as if I’d never seen the show before.

3. A Very Potter Sequel - a glorious blend of all the comedy of AVPM and the emotional heartache of AVPSY. It doesn’t have a Voldemort tap sequence, which the other do have, which is unfortunate, but we do get Stutter, so I’ll let it slide. Also, one of my favorite opening songs of a Starkid show. I just love the show. And I mean I made a poster of Umbridge’s rules that’s hanging in my room I’m pretty committed to the show lol. 

2. Twisted - It’s DISNEY and it FEELS DISNEY wtf. I love the twist on Aladdin. I love all the references the show makes.Definitively the best love song in a Starkid show. The emotional climax is so good. All of the twists and explanations about Jafar and Aladdin are great. Jim Povolo’s character is the best character even though i can’t remember his character’s name. THE MUSIC IS SO GOOD. For the longest time this was my favorite show and sometimes it is but at the moment I’m writing this I’m in the mood for the other show.

1. TGWDLM - YES. It may be because I’m working on tgdwlm fanart rn, but yes, I adore this show. Music slaps, story is so good, there is so much comedy, and there is so much analysis I can do about Paul and Emma and the apocalypse in general, it’s just wonderful. No wonder a ton of people got into starkid after this show, it was sooooooo good. I watched this when it premiered on youtube, while I was on vacation and could’ve been doing anything else. And the fact that it didn’t have a happy ending like every other show up until this one was so shocking to me and it just makes it so memorable.

god i have to do my homework now don’t i

[bananaslayr723]

Did I rank the TGWDLM soundtrack?

Yes I did.

I wrote this a year ago so it’s weird and has bad wording but the ranking is still the same.

14. Not Your Seed

Okay so, Not Your Seed is.. not that great? Mariah’s vocals slapped, but I found the entire song boring. It was heartbreaking, of course, thanks to Corey’s acting. But I still found myself skipping the song when I relisten to the songs. I don’t know how to explain it, but the “If I turned my insides out would you even know that I was there?” lowkey made me a bit confused. That’s a weird question, bro. Also don’t @ me but like... I didn’t care about Alice that much. I only cared about Bill which was why I was sad.

13. La Dee Dah Dah Day

Once again, Mariah’s voice was beautiful. But I just do not vibe with this song. Which says a lot, considering I love the songs where everyone just vibes and it’s all upbeat! But I can’t find myself listening to this song a lot? It gets annoying to me very quickly.

12. Let him Come

I feel so bad for putting this higher than the other songs, but although short, Let him Come is super good. I love Robert’s voice in it!

11. The Guy Who Didn’t Like Musicals

I love this opening! It’s probably one of my favorites in Starkid openings! It’s an awesome way to introduce Paul, and the comedy here and there is perfect. Also, Jeff Blim’s vocalizing is what I live for. Bonus point because of Let Him Come being a motif in this song, as well! Super catchy, and I love it when everyone has a line.

10. Cup of Poison Coffee

Wow okay so, I love this song! The growl in “how do ya” is to DIE for. The vocals are outstanding, and STRAIGHT CHILLS!

9. Cup of Roasted Coffee

First of all; brilliant choreography. Emma’s expressions are amazing, and the song itself is epic. The harmonies are awesome, and it sounds like an actual coffee jingle for an ad!

8. Show me those Jazz Hands

Straight banger. I love the choreography, and Sam is also one of my lowkey favorites, so that’s a bonus point! Robert’s wee woo sound effects were on point, and Mariah’s voice was beautiful as always. Jeff was good in this, too!

7. Show Stopping Number

I see people putting this so high on their rankings, but personally I don’t enjoy it that much! It’s not a bad song, just overplayed. The choreography is awesome, Robert did an amazing job at acting as Hidgens, and of course, Ted and Emma were moods. The reason I put this at 7 is because while I loved this song when I first heard it, for me it’s one of those songs where you only enjoy it the first or second time you hear it.

6. What do you Want, Paul?

People will hate me for putting this so high up. WDYWP is my guilty pleasure song. I think it’s obvious Jeff has my favorite voice, and this was super funny to me. Not only that, but I can’t help but feel WDYWP was super necessary. It showed how while the hive mind could take over anyone, you could still break free even for a split moment. (The “I forgot what I was going to say” part). It also shows how the hive mind is able to tell exactly what you want, and how manipulative it is. Not to mention, it’s honestly really clever how Mr. Davidson kept trying to get Paul to sing his “I want” song since Paul was the main character. Even though it’s really funny and some people think it’s just a long joke, I find it super clever, interesting, and catchy. The song itself is really good imo, and was my introduction into TGWDLM.

5. Join us and Die

Jaime’s voice SLAYED here! How she held that note so long, I’ll never know. Also, if you paid close attention to the choreography, you’ll notice that Charlotte and Sam go towards Ted which shows how Charlotte’s still somewhere in there. You can’t say it’s because Ted just happened to be there, because they literally pushed Bill out of the way. They weren’t going for the nearest person. They were going to Ted specifically, which is a pretty neat detail. Music overall is really good, I love the harmonies. It sends a chill up my spine everytime I listen! However, the lyrics are a bit wack- “We’re gonna kick your ass, then we’re gonna fucking kick your ass.”

4. Tied up my Heart

I love this song. It’s great, plus Jeff Blim’s beautiful voice is in it. I also love the choreography and how reluctant Charlotte is- Jaime’s an amazing actress. I can’t really say anything more- I just think it’s catchy.

3. America is Great Again

CHILLS! LITERAL CHILLS! The lyrics?- beautiful. The harmonies?- fucking awesome! Also I might be biased since I’m a General Macnamara stan, but I still think it's cool.

2. Let it Out

Jon’s acting is amazing here, and the way he just- starts singing is so shocking and scary. Also! I love Prof. Hidgens’ lines here. “Did ya really think you could kill us?! You’d be one of us before you pull that pin!” Need I say more??

1. Inevitable

TERRIFYING! But I love the little references to the songs which show Paul is 100% infected. “Emma! Let me…” Is a reference to “CHARLOTTE! You brought me back..” “Show stopping number with Emma front and center..” is obviously a reference to “Show stopping number!..” and so on. I just really love it okay.

[rewrittenending-blog1]

lauren lopez, cis female ( she/her ), bisexual. did you hear ? EMMA PERKINS, a ( canon ) character in ( THE GUY WHO DIDN’T LIKE MUSICALS ), went deviant THREE MONTHS ago ! now they’re a 31 y/o barista/student. people either think they’re [ QUICK-WITTED & ADVENTUROUS ] or [ CRABBY & INTOLERANT ] but associate them w/ coffee beans, messy buns, unread texts, risen middle fingers, rolling eyes, blue goo, black shorts & blood stains either way. they DO remember the apotheosis. ( pace, she/her, gmt. )

surprise ! it’s me, ya girl, with another musical theatre goblin ! this is emma, i adore her endlessly, and she’s probably the muse i actually have the most muse for rn so expect to see A LOT of her, my friends !

CANON FOR THOSE WHO DON’T KNOW:

okay so the guy who didn’t like musicals is a musical about, get this, a guy who doesn’t like musicals. how do they think of these titles ? but him hating musical theatre is all very well and good until a meteor hits the local theatre, and their island slowly becomes infected by singing alien-zombies. the whole thing is on youtube ( professionally shot and legal and shit. it’s a starkid production and they truly do come through for us ! ) so maybe watch it maybe ?

emma is said musical hating guy’s love interest and eventually the show’s final girl 

she works at the local coffee shop as a barista, and loathes her job more and more with each passing second. the customers are vultures, her boss is an ass, her manager is ten years younger than her and a pesky theatre kid, the pay sucks, and the tip jar reads ‘tip for a song’ and she’d much rather take a cactus to the eye than follow the instructions of a piece of paper 

all she wants is to avoid not dying in her hometown, and spent the first eighteen years of her life trying to leave the island, and only returned when her sister died. she always invited emma home to make her be apart of the big events of her life, but emma never went, and her sister’s death made her realise she was missing out on too much and not doing anything with her life. so she moved back home and enrolled in college and decided to start fresh

but then uh whoops zombie apocalypse decided to rain on her parade and take the lives of her friends

FUNKY RP STUFF:

i put a lot of ( probably too much lmao ) thought into which of my characters would have their memories and which wouldn’t, but emma becoming aware of the loop is LITERALLY so in character for her. tgwdlm is kinda meta anyway, and ( SPOILERS ) the show ends with emma talking to the audience and trying to get someone to help her. she literally screams ‘WHY ARE YOU ALL CLAPPING ?!’ as the rest of the cast take their bows, it’s highkey brilliant ( / SPOILERS END ) and then the whole thing starting again and THAT being emma’s life just,,,, fits ? and of all the characters, she’s the one smart enough to figure it out and break out and try and go against it, and then eventually ending up here. but ya she’s honestly perfect for this rp lmao

she’s trying to Deal with all of that, and what happened during the apotheosis, but also build a life for herself now she’s,, Real ? so she’s studying exactly what she did in canon, botany, with the exact same end goal, of starting a pot farm. while her life may have been a musical, she’s still the same and her motivations were still the same. plus, having to find a new life goal is just one big existential crisis she doesn’t want to deal with. and she’s still a barista, but maybe somewhere that doesn’t involve singing. since,,,, y’know, the last time people sang around her, everyone died and then tried to kill her

still emo about paul, trying to Deal with all of that too. honestly becoming deviant has just been a Lot for her, which is saying something when her last memories beforehand were here running away from singing zombies with blue shit dripping out of their mouths

probably needs a roommate or two if anybody is game, that could be fun ! she’s working her way through college so girlie has, like, zero money and needs all the roomies she can get 

while being snappy and intolerant, emma’s somehow......likeable ? she’s loyal, and sympathetic, and doesn’t put up with people’s crap. she’s got a pretty good noodle on her, and she’s very quick on her feet. but tbh she’s also crabby and grumpy and snarky but,,,, also the least intimidating woman ever. she’s a 5′0′’ soprano and can be really soft, there’s nothing intimidating about that 

again i’m probably forgetting stuff so to be updated !!!!

[charlicpace]

🖊+ sofia

SEND ME “🖊 + AN OC” AND I WILL TALK ABOUT THAT OC !

hi hello, thank you so much for sending this ! lowkey i feel like i might know who sent this ( my usual suspects were asleep and @ work respectively when i got this and i’m a Detective ) and if i’m Correct hi hello how u doin love your blog xox

this is she! if anybody thought this was gonna be eloquent or even,, Coherent, i’m sad to say you’re mistaken, bc i get too excited and just !!!!! words !!!! characters !!!! but this is my lauren lopez fc, sofia, and here’s a fun thing about her choice of fc: when i told my friend i was thinking of using her for the plot in question, i also sent her like a link to a couple of gifsets ( probably like,,, something from the judas interview or something?? ) to be like !!! look, cute !!!! and she replied saying she was glad i sent her the link bc she searched lauren’s name on this hellsite and the first thing that came up was a gifset from avpm from that scene where draco’s like ‘and you have to be my slave for a whole day staring now!!!!’ and voldy doing the Iconic ‘yOU LITTLE SHIT’ so … we were off to a good start from the beginning sjsjsjjns. but anyway, sof’s one of my favourites !!! she was made for a lost mumu, and essentially her story is that she was in australia with her boyfriend to meet and pick up said boyfriend’s nephew after the death of said boyfriend’s sister, and they were heading home with this three year old toddler sofia’s never met before when oops plane crash yikes. but i also play her in a regular ol’ town verse where everyone is happy and mr toddler ( whose name is panda and he’s iconic ) gets to stay with his mum ‘cause yay she’s still alive, and sof and her boyfriend get to have a nice relationship with her and panda and it’s a good time.  

pre-island ( or just,, regular ol’ times in town verse!! ) she’s a dance teacher ( which feels SO lazy since lauren’s a dancer, and usually i’m not someone who does that kinda thing but i liked it for sofia and it’s mostly a coincidence shsbsbshs ) who fell into Teaching accidentally after a lot of missed opportunities and things falling through professionally, but lowkey loves it. and just loves her life in general???? she’s happy??? loves her tree of a boyfriend??? honestly the one (1) time i keep a fc’s height for a character, it’s the one time their romantic partner ends up being an entire foot and four whole inches taller than them. it’s,, hilarious. 

look at that shit!!!! it’s ridiculous and i love it!!!! but they’re also rlly cute :’))) we love a loving, committed couple who don’t wanna get married but wanna be together anyway and both have the same wants in life and just seem to Fit, including a plan not to have kids until the suddenly get a three year old whoops. tbf he was like ‘this isn’t what we planned and what you want so if you want to leave it’s all good’ but sof was having none of that,,, even though she said a similar thing to him a couple years earlier when she found out some stuff about herself but ANYWAY. even if she hadn’t decided to stay she’d still be like BITCH WHAT KIND OF PERSON LEAVES SOMEONE JUST AFTER THEIR SISTER DIES but……..i digress. but sof’s always just been a kinda,,,, Get On With It person??? like she can just,,,, get on with things and accept it and move with it and carry on with life?? wish i could relate lmao. so she just accepts it as part of her life and moves on, and no matter what was going on with her internally she just kind of accepted that this was their life now and they’re gonna raise his nephew. and that attitude continues after the crash too??? like after the initial shock is gone, she’s Useful because she can just……. get on with it as best as she can??? it was kinda mean of me to purposefully make her birthday like a week after the crash and yet,,, here i am. but can i just say!!!! i don’t trust my friend to be kind to these three characters on the island!!!!! ya hear that @dulcerps I DON’T TRUST YOU NOT TO HURT OZZY ON THIS ISLAND. I DO NOT!!!!! panda is Safe but i still don’t trust you!!!! i feel like you’re up to somethin!!!!! snake!!!!!!

but anyway she went from living a gr8 life and going from being that obnoxious gym couple with her boyfren to fighting off Others and wearing the same pair of shorts for like two weeks straight in the beginning. all while trying to make this kid not hate her. she’d never really been around kids before panda?? it’s not to say that she doesn’t Like them, she just hasn’t been around them?? her brother is younger than her but they’re still close enough in age that they Grew Up Together and when he was a kid she was a kid too???? and they’re the youngest in the family pretty much, and none of her friends had kids yet or anything???? and the kids she teaches @ work are like,, pre-teens to teens, and she just talks to them like they’re adults and that’s her Thing and it’s why they like her??? like it’s the whole ‘u don’t treat me like a kid, you’re cool’ thing??? so she’s tryin really hard with panda but,,,,, eh, she’ll get there. even though she’s only now realising how much she swears, and that she can’t say his real name in a serious sentence bc she thinks it’s so ridiculous. 

anyway !!!!!! sof as a person !!!!! my daughter !!!! this is too long and ramble-y so i’m just gonna !!!!! basics !!!!! takes no shit !!!!! she does Not have time for people being buffoons !!!! a Brave soul !!!!! can be v emotional just as much as the next person but she hardly ever cries !!!! can’t relate my dude !!!! loves coffee but can’t really do caffeine anymore and she Luvs wine ( red, preferably ) but shouldn’t drink it bc it makes her sleepy !!!! either reads/watches really dark, twisted books/shows and loves a Thriller and something Twisty, or she’s watching the most light-hearted sitcommy stuff that’s all Laughs, and there is No in between!!!!!! bi legend!!!! tgwdlm was perfect for giving me gif material for sof, but it’s funny because sofia………..literally hates musicals. i made her like two years ago???? and yep she hates musicals. and she hates theatre kids shjbskhsbshs. she went to a performing arts college so she was Surrounded by the dreaded Theatre Kids and yikes it’s a no!!!! which is a shame because she has a GREAT belty singing voice that’s perfect for musical theatre and it just GOES TO WASTE ( other than @ work bc she also is a voice teacher/vocal coach just so she’s doing Something with it, u know??? ) like,,,,,,, other than that she sings in the shower and in the car and that’s It and i hate her!! and sofia is the reason i use a different fc for playing emma, bc then tgwdlm came along and i FELL IN LOVE with emma and oops lauren’s already in use. but yep sofia really is the girl that didn’t like musicals. a libra !!!! a gryffindor !!!! a type three !!!! an esfj !!! athletic legend who thought she might have to give up all her hobbies and potentially her job when she got sick BUT ALL IS WELL she’s fiiiine!!!! takes pole dancing classes for fun!!! can probably race you up a climbing wall and beat your ass no matter who you are, and despite the fact she’s an entire 5′0′’!!!! she can be such a stubborn little shit but that’s okay, she’s Soft really!!! anyway i’m gonna shut up now bc i feel for anybody who has to scroll past this Massive Wall of Ramble on their dash but tysm for sendin me this i loved rambling about sof !!!! :’)))) 

[starcanwrecked-confessions]

Taking a break from retirement. I don't follow this blog (because the posts here can get a bit too intense sometimes), but when I get bored and miss StarKid (or check if my anon posts got published or reacted to), I do read the posts here. Here’s what I think about the current posts I’ve read.

Why do people who apparently dislike or hate Robert Manion still talk about him, even though the events happened a few years ago? Please ask yourselves this. Sure, he committed his wrongdoings back in 2020 and/or 2021, but is three years not enough to stop talking about it? People generally know his actions were bad. Even those who don't know him or know nothing about SK understand that harassing someone romantically and sexually online and saying insensitive or uninformed things is wrong. (If I miss something or I'm being vague about it, it’s because I avoid that Robert topic and vaguely remember what he actually said online. I don't care to read about them again because I know what's right and what's wrong.)

I don't even hate Robert, probably because I left the fandom when he joined. When I came back, he was no longer a part of SK.

To those who are new, please read Robert's fandom wiki page and look up information online about why he left and the controversies surrounding him in SK’s past. There’s no need to add to the discourse about someone whom StarKid carefully mentions online because of what happened—trust me, there’s already more than enough awareness about it online.

I remember they did not even tag Robert in their IG post about the Twisted anniversary, but they did post his character's photo. Joey briefly mentioned him while talking about TGWDLM or BF during the CC Kickstarter livestreams.

Note, expressing that you miss or wish Robert had stayed because you enjoyed his performances will likely attract replies about what he did, and they often repeat the same things. It’s probably best to avoid this.

He was a good and funny performer, then he made some mistakes, and he left SK.

And yes, Robert still talks and works with Jon Matteson and maybe a few other SK members. They probably made amends. Deal with it. It's their lives and friendships.

P.S. I block Robert Manion tags here on Tumblr, but I’m still curious why he is still discussed by fans as a person and what he did, rather than just as a performer. I can understand fans talking about his past creative work with SK, like how good of a performer he was and about his characters.

P.S.S. This is not an invitation to add more discourse or anon posts about him. If you want to react to this, there’s a comment section under this post and I might reply.

Will there still be a lot of discourse/posts about Rob’s actions in the next 5 or 10 years? Hopefully not, as we all get older and the active and older SK members will be in their 40s or 50s. Heck, they might even talk about him again and maybe open up about what he did (again) as a reflection, kind of like a deep-dive history documentary, when SK reaches their 20th or 30th anniversary or something.

I could say more about this but I'm just gonna say the biggest on my mind after reading this

I think a big reason people still talk is actually to inform fans who don't know, also it can be hard to seperate his performance from him, art vs artists

For you maybe not since you weren't part of the fandom while he was here but for many people he was MASSIVE part starkid and loved by many

Just because it's been 3 years doesn't mean people have to stop talking about it and should only think of the good parts of him, again it's pretty hard to do that

Also "note, expressing that you miss or wish Robert had stayed because you enjoyed his performances will likely attract replies about what he did, and they often repeat the same things. It's probably best to avoid this" what are you getting at here? First off although I can understand being nostalgic for before this all happened sure I'd honestly hope no one who knows what happened actually truly wishes he stayed, he sexually harassed someone in starkid, I don't think he should stay in the same company as the person he harassed. Second yeah people commenting about what he did are going to repeat the same things? Bc they are explaing what the bad things he did were? You can't add on or makr stuff very different when explaing what the bad things someone did were.
