hey it's the anon who asked what dr*m did,
I decided to do my own research (mainly cause I was curious) but... I can't find much? let me rephrase it - I did find the allegations from 6ish months ago, that he's going to court with one(?) of them, but that's... all? I didn't find the court's verdict, confirmations, or him admitting either... and any post or video I find has both the OP and the comments mostly on his side and believing that it's either not true or true but not grooming, even people who say they're not his fans or don't even like him.
so Im not sure if the confirmation didn't reach youtube or if I'm searching wrong or something?
but honestly while researching I realized that I cant stand him lmao, gotta agree with some comments I read - he made a mistake by showing more of his personality online, looks like any time he can handle a situation wrong/respond wrong he does it
so dunno, guess I didnt find the confirmation but at least now I don't find his old minecraft videos interesting anymore so theres that
Yeah he can't act properly to save his fucking life
Also I think most of the threads on Twitter and stuff that have all the proof he's guilty/etc is probably long buried, unfortunately. You could probably try to ask around saying you're trying to get the whole picture but tbh it's not a huge deal if you can't. You can try searching my blog but Tumblr sucks with that shit. The fact that this and his other controversies have been buried and lost to the void of the internet is typical white boy with a monstrously big platform shit so I'm not surprised. I never heard any details about court (prob for legal reasons) or a conviction either. All I know is there was screenshot proof from the victim that they talked, and Dr*m confirmed the screenshots were real but didn't say anything about other details. But those details literally can't be false if the screenshots & the shit said in them are true.
Anyway, as far as his other bullshit goes:
People found old kkk meme edits on his yt account through the wayback machine. More than once if I'm not mistaken
He has a history of defending himself using the r slur
He cheated "on accident" in a speedrun (the least important thing ever but everyone always brings it up)
He claimed he was going to donate all proceeds during pride month to lgbt+ charities & he'd do charity streams all month but never did
He defended himself about replying to haters, which would send thousands of his toxic stans after the person getting them doxxed/death threats/etc and he refused to address that it was irresponsible of him bc he was too entitled to immaturely clap back at the antis. Even other ccs, like B/itzel called him out about shit related to how he uses his platform irresponsibly & he unfollowed & shaded them like a bitch baby
The whole "accidental" copycat shit with QSMP/USMP and basically softcore stalking Q/uackity online.
His "apologies" for all of the above fucking sucked in multiple ways. And that's just 2021-Now shit I can remember off the top of my head, I lost my Twitter in May last year so now I get my info from people's posts about it on here or links to tweets.
Everyone largely suspects he spontaneously reignited d/smp lore & started the finale to cover up the groomer thing bc he has a history of doing smth "new and cool" every time he causes drama to divert attention and avoid accountability.
He's also suspected of suddenly rewriting the d/smp finale to paint his Irredeemable Abuser Villain Up Until The Last Stream as a sympathetic poor baby out of nowhere and wrote that his victim, c!Tommy apologized to him, which sends a HORRIBLE message about abusive relationships. T/ommy and T/ubbo have both subtly mentioned not liking the finale and that Dr*m had AWFUL communication during the last like 6+ months of the smp.
He also suddenly showed up in T/ubbo's chat lurking while T/ubbo happened to be mentioning he'd do his own research on the grooming situation instead of blindly siding with Dr*m and it was some shit out of a horror movie is2g, he suddenly dmed T/ubbo out of nowhere during it on discord saying they'd talk about it after T/ubbo wasn't streaming. Basically sounds like he was gonna bias T/ubbo about his innocence. Like he hadn't been in chat all stream long but SUDDENLY he was there the second the topic came up. But the d/smp ccs also can't say anything about the situation since it's a legal matter, so a handful of ccs have just stated/implied they don't support him other ways
He only quit MCC bc he threw a tantrum about how he couldn't practice for it but now that MCC island exists, people were getting better than him. He's habitually a sore loser about that kinda shit
He's got that whole weird "is he, isn't he" bullshit going on about him being lgbt. I personally think he's just catering to his stupid d/n/f shippers bc they like to truth their relationship & sexuality all the time and he's never explicitly said he's bi or smth. He's just vaguely been like "yeeeaahhhh I mostly like girls like 99% but maaaayyybeee I like guys idkkkk. 🤪" But he's also done that multiple times so who tf knows. I'm not gonna fully dismiss him & I understand no one including me is entitled to his specific sexuality, but he has garbage credibility on like everything so I'm neutral on the matter and find it hard to believe him
Not directly him related, but his stans went on a long and horrifying witch hunt on Twitter during the kkk ordeal doxxing, death threatening & harassing ENTIRE mcyt subtwts who spoke out against him and called him out on his racism, performative activism, shitty apology, etc. For example, I was part of S/neeg's subtwt and all my mutuals and me had to go private to avoid getting doxxed. It felt like being raided in some dystopian ass horror film. Entire subtwts were going private, panicking, paranoid they'd get outed & stalked & harassed by people just for condemning racism, raising Black voices, etc. It was borderline traumatic to some people, I know people who lost sleep over it bc they were so afraid.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head but the end of 2021 to early 2022 was a fucking nightmare between him being an immature entitled piece of shit and his stans blindly defending him and going out of their way to endanger people who rightfully opposed him.
#dream situation#<- this tag on Tumblr might be really helpful to you actually. a lot of ppl tag posts about current drm drama with it#if you go back far enough you might find threads about the allegations and stuff

warning: negative rant post ahead (literally just me ranting my thoughts)
(if u want to rant in my asks, anon asks are always on and i would love talking through stuff with you)
first off: the setup. the whole thing to start was messed up, kaceytron brought in a bunch of her friends, her sister, and her chat into a “debate” who were obviously heavily biased towards her and ever towards the start were obviously not going to listen. they had no moderation, let dream get talked over, twisted his words, dictated the flow of conversation, and ignored the actual issues. dream joined to explain stans pov and why they were upset.
second: the actual problems. they didn’t even THINK to invite poc and lgtbtqa+ (besides her one token friend) people to speak and instead had a bunch of white people....defending a white straight woman. they kept avoiding the root cause of these groups upset, fans didnt do this to cancel her groups did this because they were hurt by her usage of slurs and how she claimed to be advocating for all lgbtqa+ people. they spent the whole time arguing about dream using his private v main (gun violence tw) and if he supports gun violence or not.
third: dumping trauma on someone. they literally dumped a bunch of trauma, ran, gaslight him into saying random shit, shoved words into his mouth and then went “yeah we barely disagreed about anything” dream has publicly talked about how he’s been in an emotionally abusive relationship and then they go on to just gaslight him into a corner. like i genuinely cannot believe that this 30 year old woman thought, yeah this is a great idea, lets back this 21 year old new cc into talking about his sexuality by trauma dumping. like i genuinely cannot believe i just watched a grow ass woman and her friends basically try and out one of my comfort people on front of 25k people??? and then ignored the fact that her chat was mocking his stutter and asking for people to rephrase things????
fourth: qbaiting. these straight women then proceeded to call dream out for qbaiting. QUEERBAITING IS A MARKETING TACTIC USED FOR FICTION. it is literally used by companies or authors to keep their gay audience interested while not turning off homophobes. dream and george have stated MULTIPLE times that george is straight and have no plans to date. not only did they link dream and george having a naturally flirty friendship to one of their friends getting run over by a tractor in high school, they forced dream to talk about his sexuality.
(also it’s just very strange that people never call out george for qbaiting and its always dream...when george has openly said he’s straight...something to think about for everyone...)
DREAM HAS SAID HE DOESN’T WANT HIS SEXUALITY TALKED ABOUT. HE IS UNDISCLOSED AND DOESNT OWE ANYONE ANYTHING. do they not understand how shitty they were to push him into a corner where he could either be accused of qbaiting or telling 25k people live his sexuality. they were all for helping the lgbtqa+ community but then the second someone doesn’t want to disclose they feel forced to. do they even understand how traumatic that can be for someone??
fifth: now that dream has left the call she’s comparing him to trump, making fun of his stuttering, saying he acts different off camera, and is trying to get her fans to mass report his discord. i Am Going to Lose it
tldr: kaceytron apologized for nothing, and she and her friends tried to back dream into a corners about literally every issue under the sun while ignoring all the shit they’re doing, and now are mocking him once he’s left the call. take care of yourselves and my asks are always open

Bad Dream
Warnings: swearing, homophobia
Requests are open
Masterlist
———————————————————————
It wasn’t strange for Eddie to occasionally get nightmares from a game he and his group of friends played in middle school. Even as a 19 year old, the memories still haunt him. It was as if the thing that he buried deep inside wanted to come out.
His nights always were normal; he ate dinner, had a shower, brushed his teeth, studied until lights out then headed for bed. Nothing to suggest that his dreams would turn bad or into nightmares.
It was a cold November night. Eddie loved this kinda temperature as it meant he could rug up tightly with multiple layers of blankets and long flannel pyjamas.
He pulled out 2 reasonably warm blankets that he stole from his mother’s bedroom cupboard and threw them on the bed. He looked over at his roommate peacefully sleeping, Eddie knew he had to be quiet and yet he still grunted, loudly, when lifting the mattress.
As soon as his head hit the pillow, he was out cold.
*
His nightmares all start out the same. Cold, dim, faint whispers from his friends who seemed to be a good 30 metres away and a giant clown head looming over him. The clown’s head always has a creepy smirk plastered on its face. It then will shrink down portraying what Eddie fears most.
The clown always shifted into a leper first but Eddie always showed no reaction.
Eddie often lied to his friends saying that he was afraid of germs.
That was true.
Except there was something else. Something else that scared him more, especially in such a small town like Derry.
His sexuality.
The clown studied Eddie, almost like he was digger deeper and deeper into Eddie’s soul, trying to find that secret hidden fear that Eddie refuses to ever admit.
“He will never love you, Eddie.” The clown would taunt. “Richie doesn’t love you. Imagine if he found out you like him?”
As if on cue a tall, lanky, brunette boy would walk up to Eddie. Except there was never a warm smirk from the boy, like there often was. Instead it was a devilish side smirk that often suggested he was about to do something mean or stupid.
“Hey guys!” The tall brunette called to the rest of the group.
“What now Richie?” A tall blonde boy asked.
“Stan the Man, did you know that our little Eds here is a fag?” Richie asked, gesturing to Eddie.
“Why would be friends with a fairy?” A redheaded girl asked.
“Guys?” Eddie felt his lips quiver as the word left his mouth.
Fear cradled Eddie. He watched his best friends laugh and point at him as they continued on calling him gay slurs.
“Bye bye Edward.” Richie said.
He was frozen and looked on as they left laughing and glancing back towards him.
“Oh poor sweet little Eddie Spaghetti. Did your friends make fun of you?” The clown mocked.
In a blink of an eye, he then found himself in the dorm room that he shares with Richie. On Richie’s side of the room, boxes were packed and the bed was stripped. Clothes and books were gone and candy wrappers were no longer scattered on the floor.
Richie appeared behind him and forcefully turned him around. The tall boy smirked and then turned into Eddie’s mother. “Eddie darling, that Tozier boy is a bad influence. He’s infected you.”
Eddie knew what the clown was saying. But he couldn’t retaliate. No matter how hard he tried, no words came out.
“It’s a sickness, Eddie.”
*
He woke in a sweat. He flipped himself over so that he was facing his nightstand instead of the wall. Eddie had a clear view of Richie, the moonlight shining in through Richie’s half open curtain, lit up his face.
Eddie looked at how his curly brown hair was tussled and was all over his face. Richie smiled in his sleep and let out a soft sigh in contentment.
It made sense as to why the clown always used Richie and not some other boy that Eddie found attractive. Eddie was always drawn to Richie, even if he was a dick half the time. Especially those ‘your mom’ jokes.
Sure Richie was good looking but the words that fell out of his mouth, his hygiene level and not to mention his need to drink and smoke. Eddie was often grossed out and annoyed by his best friend.
Eddie peaked over at the photo of him and Richie, on his nightstand. The photo was from the night before their high school graduation. Richie had set up the camera on a timer and had run back to hug Eddie before the flash went off.
Eddie sighed heavily, careful to not wake Richie up in the process. He knew he had to tell Richie especially since he’d been keeping this secret for years. If there was one person he trusted in his friend group more than anyone, was Richie.
He sat up and looked over at the bed next to him. “Richie?” Eddie whispered, knowing full well that Richie was a light sleeper.
“Yeah Eds?” Richie’s groggy voice whispers back.
“You know that reoccurring dream that I’ve been having since middle school?”
“Yeah? Did you have it again?”
“Yeah but I uh, I’m ready to talk about it.”
Eddie never wanted to talk about this particular dream with Richie. No matter how hard he tried to deny it, he knew he was in love with Richie. Every touch, every longing look, every annoying comment about fucking Eddie’s mom and every smirk that Richie threw Eddie’s way made him weak at the knees.
It was a good weak though, it didn’t make him feel helpless against a bully like Henry Bowers. It made him weak in a way that gave him hope that maybe just maybe Richie felt the same way. Richie was never touchy with the rest of the Losers, just Eddie. Hell! Eddie was the only Loser to see Richie cry.
But at the same time, that could just be because they’ve been friends longer than the others. But then there’s Stan. Stan had been friends with Richie and Eddie since 1st grade, only 1 year between Eddie and Stan’s friendships with Richie.
He never teased or annoyed the others as much or as harsh as Eddie. It was like he wanted attention from one person and one person only.
It wasn’t just that, it was the other things that weren’t directed at Eddie. Whenever Richie smoked, yes it bugged him, but Eddie had to admit it was hot. It was the way he held the cigarette and the stance he took when the two were talking. But what got to him was the fact that Richie always was mindful of Eddie’s asthma and would turn away so that the smoke never went near him.
Richie always carried a spare inhaler at all times in case Eddie was in a position where he couldn’t get his inhaler or it ran out. Richie has never had to use the spare but it’s there for the day Eddie needs it.
Stan had even started making suggestive comments directed towards Eddie about Richie before they all left to college.
Eddie took a shakey breath. “What’s up with you? Do you like Richie?” Stan had asked. He didn’t even plan this, how was he supposed to tell Richie?
“You sure Eds?” Richie asked. “I don’t want you to seem like you’re being forced.”
“‘Chee.” Richie pushed himself off his bed and made his way to Eddie’s and sat himself at the foot of the bed. “I’ve been keeping this from you for 6 years.”
“Okay. Just take you time.”
“I just want to start off by saying uh, I - ” Eddie stopped.
“Take your time.” Richie said calmly.
“My bad dreams aren’t really nightmares. They’re scary but not in the way that nightmares usually are.”
“I don’t understand.”
Eddie tried to form a complete sentence in his head but the way that Richie looked distracted him. His tussled curly brown hair. Even if it was freezing cold out, Richie was shirtless.
“I lied back when we played that game back in middle school. Yes I’m afraid of germs but I’m afraid of something else. I was afraid to even admit that fear to myself.”
“And you dream about this?” Eddie nodded. “What happens?”
“The clown, Pennywise, taunts me. You all call me names and then my mom -”
“Eddie are you saying -” Eddie nodded.
“I’m gay Rich and the fucking clown shows me all of you teasing me, mocking me, rejecting me. Then you - you’re leaving our fucking dorm room and then turns into my fucking mother!” Eddie stopped and looked at Richie. Richie looked down, even though he would never, he felt guilty that Eddie couldn’t tell him.
“She uh, she claims that you’re the one that infected me. You were the one that instigated the teasing and name calling.” Eddie continued.
Richie lefted his head back up and searches Eddie’s eyes. “Eds, there’s something else you’re not telling me.” Eddie looked almost away immediately. “Eds, you don’t have to tell me.”
“It focussed on you because I like you. My greatest fear is you hating me and rejecting not only my sexuality but also me. My fear is that you, well none of you would accept who I am.”
Richie was at a loss of words but starts to draw his lips into a small grin. “Eds, I would never. Look I uh, I like you too.”
“What? Please tell me you’re not saying that outta pity.”
“Eds why do you think I annoy you so you’d pay me attention and not one of the others? Telling you that i ‘fucked your mom’ is my fucked up way of telling you i love you.”
“Richie?”
“Yeah?”
“I fucked your mom.”
“I love you too asshole.” The two boys laughed. “Come on, lets get you back to sleep.”
Richie reached over Eddie and placed his glasses on Eddie’s nightstand.
“Move over asshole.” Richie said. Eddie moved over so that Richie could comfortably and smoothly slide under the covers and Eddie cuddled into Richie’s bare torso.
“We haven’t done this since junior year of high school.”
“That’s because I thought it’d be awkward especially when you came out as bi. But now I can see I was stupid.”
In the Summer before their junior year, Richie had come out as bi to the Losers. Eddie started to slowly stop spending the night at Richie’s and made excuses for Richie to not spend the night at Eddie’s.
It started with Eddie waiting for Richie to fall asleep before quietly sneaking out the window. Or telling Richie that he had picked up an early morning shift, so that Richie didn’t stay or sneak over.
“No you aren’t. Just sleep and I can take you out to dinner tonight.”
“Definitely.”

Oh my god, can you people stop making things up and distorting facts about the Johnny Depp vs Amber thing just so that you can keep defending her??
(I’m pretty sure this will not reach anyone who actually needs it, but I’m still doing this)
People are so allergic to admitting they’re wrong, or at least giving someone the benefit of the doubt, that y’all making up absolute bs. Calling Depp racist, misoginistic, homo/bi-phobic, and worst of all a p*dophile.
There’s literally zero evidence backing up any of it and if you fell for that, I feel sorry for you. This is all bs made up by Heard stans to make him look bad in front of people who know nothing about him. And for some people literally all it takes is when someone says something and they’re like “really?” “YES, i have no evidence to support this except for my nonsense hate and me being an awful human for making sh*t up, but IT’S TOTALLY TRUE”. and people just believe it. it’s ridiculous.
I’m not saying he’s perfect, but he’s never been any of the aforementioned things. I’m not even going to touch much on the p*dophile thing because that was made up by a Trump stan and JD hates Trump and they’re so pressed about it they have to make disgusting things like that up, and now people who were shocked by his evidence proving they were slandering him for no reason, repeat it just so that they don’t have to admit they were wrong.
No woman, except for Heard and her hoax-assisting friends, have ever said a bad word about Depp. Quite the opposite, everyone’s who met him say he’s a gentleman, kind, caring. Saying things like “there’s no one else like him” and claiming “he doesn’t belong in show business, he belongs somewhere better” - by Sarah Jessica Parker. His first wife is not only still in contact with him, but even spoke against Heard and said Johnny never even raised a voice at her. Vanessa Paradis wrote a hand-written note defending him. So many women spoke in defense of him.
Some people are even lying and saying he has been accused by his previous gf of abuse. HE HAS NOT. No one had ever accused him of that and no one came out during the last three years saying “oh yeah he abused me, too” they DEFENDED HIM. Please, if you someone tried to convince you that he had been accused, do not believe it, do your own research, you’ll see it that it’s not true and people are just making up rumours to support their “Heard is a victim” story.
Or her stans saying he abused her because she’s bisexual is like?? There is literally nothing to back it up. He’s never said a bad word about other sexualities. He made a decision that Jack Sparrow is bisexual. His very own daughter is not straight and have you seen how proud he is of her? He supports her and adores her with every ounce of his being. Stop turning him into something he’s not.
"If there's any message to my work, it is ultimately that it's okay to be different, that it's good to be different, that we should question ourselves before we pass judgement on someone who looks different, behaves different, talks different, is a different color." - Johnny Depp, y’all
But guess who was arrested for abusing her FEMALE partner? Amber Heard.
Guess who accused the gay FEMALE cop that arrested her of being misoginistic? Amber Heard.
And guess who accused the same GAY female cop that arrested her of being homophobic? Amber Heard.
And guess who made a racist tweet? AMBER HEARD.
Isn’t it funny how Heard stans are accusing Depp of everything that can be said of and proven Amber Heard is??
Now for the distorting of facts:
I’ve seen a few posts/tweets being like “ya’ll jumped at some UNsourced info” blah blah. IT IS NOT UNSOURCED. They’re legit lawsuit with clerk stamps on them. And Johnny and his lawyer have referenced them!! Johnny literally said “which is why I’m suing...” and there’s been a recent statement reacting to people’s support how he’s determined more than ever to fight for justice and he WANTS his day in court to prove all that he’s saying is true. And his lawyer has been giving statements to the press for almost a year now. All of this is legit info from legit court documents. Just because you’re too lazy to look for the actual link for the whole document, that doesn’t make them false. It’s like you people think a Depp fan wrote two fake 40 page lawsuits, are you really that pathetic to suggest something like that? Waldman, his lawyer, has confirmed what the lawsuit says, it’s not just screenshot from some “unsourced” lawsuit, he repeated what the lawsuit says: 87 surveillance videos, litany of neutral witnesses, including the police, photographic evidence, audio, and sworn testimonies, as well as Heard’s admission.
And furthermore, people saying just because the lawsuit claims she confessed, doesn’t mean it’s true. Well, okay. However, she has not denied the claims. Read through her statements reacting to the lawsuits, she or her lawyer/publicist or whatever, have responded several times. But never with “I deny this”. It’s always something to make Johnny look bad. “that’s mental abuse” “he’s hell-bent on self-destruction” “ms heard won’t be silenced” “frivolous lawsuit” “just read his latest interview to see he’s delusional” blah blah blah.
None of that includes any denial whatsoever. And some people are saying “well, so she was just defending herself!!” yeah? so why hasn’t she said that either?? Instead of accusing Depp of mental abuse, she could just say “I confessed to ‘attacks’ that were pure self-defense.” That’s literally all she’d have to say. She hasn’t. The first “she admitted” claims came out several months ago last year (y’all just noticed only this week for some reason). And in all those months, she has not denied anything. Whereas Johnny has ALWAYS maintained he didn’t abuse her, he’s always denied it. Why hasn’t she?
My second point is people saying he’s still an asshole even if he was a victim, because *references some out of context bs* blah blah, I’ve been over a part of this at the beginning. Yes, he was arrested in the past, for trashing a hotel room (no violence on people) with his then gf Kate Moss, and for chasing away paparazzi after politely asking them to leave him and his family alone. They didn’t, so he PROTECTED his family. Trying to distort that to make him sound abusive is gross. And lastly, stop using the “he punched a guy on a movie set” allegation. First of all, the guy literally ditched court, I wonder why. Secondly, multiple people have come out saying Johnny was neither drunk, nor did he punch the guy. A script supervisor even said they have time-stamped photos to prove he didn’t. However, I would not blame him if he did because HE WAS DEFENDING A HOMELESS AFRICAN-AMERICAN WOMAN. That’s right, the accuser was being RACIST. And according to witnesses:
Danoff says they were shooting outside and Brooks (the accuser) berated an African-American homeless woman with "racial and derogatory slurs" because she was in his way. Depp was sitting next to her about 25 feet away when it happened.
"He immediately stood up from our shared seat on the edge of a planter bench and went over to Brooks to stand up for the woman," Danoff says. "Mr. Depp said to Mr. Brooks, 'You can’t talk to her like that. You think she is something less than you? Who do you think you are? How dare you?'"
What an as*hole Depp is, right?
And stop using his addiction struggles to say that proves he’s abusive or that it means he deserved the abuse. Addiction is an illness and it’s disgusting to use it against him, when he’s been so opened and honest about it his entire life /but guess who’s pretending to be perfect even though she’s in fact known to be a drug addict but she pretends she’s not, at least JD’s open about it. He’s always been an honest guy. He is not a liar/. I beg you, watch this video “I was trying to calm the brain. I was trying to feel better.” and tell me, how can you use it against him?? And note, that this was two months before Heard’s accusation, a year into their marriage, look at his appearance. He was being abused.
He was also abused as kid, by the way. If you didn’t know.
And what’s also annoying is “none of that proves his innocence, they were both abusive then” GO AWAY WITH THIS NONSENSE. She’s been openly mocking him for almost three years now.
1) Guess who starred in a pirate film. 2) Guess who played the Mad hatter in Alice in Wonderland? Oh yeah, that would be her former “abusive” husband. 3) And the last photo is literally so disgusting. Johnny changed the tattoo with her nickname that he had on his fingers (and he wears a lot of rings on his fingers) and this human garbage posted a picture of herself with fist punching, fingers full of rings and the caption #NoInkNeeded. She is a garbage, openly mocking her victim.
And she RECENTLY posted several photos of herself that were taken while she was with Depp (x, x - both taken years ago by Johnny’s friend Greg Williams) One on the roof of the building they lived in together where she was allegedly being violently abused. Oh the nostalgia, am I right? Her friend literally commented they miss it. WTF? They miss the place their friend was “abused” in? Oh and guess who demanded the three of their formerly shared condos in that building? Our perfect angel “abuse victim” miss Heard. I’m sure it’s very normal for an abuse victim to want to keep the place in which they were abused. Johnny Depp is the weird one for selling it and wanting no memories of it.
Stop the mental gymnastics to defend Heard and paint Depp as the worst human ever.

[For Mobile Users] Compiled Info
(everything in the links is re-posted here!)
Season 2 Information
Here we go again...
“Here we go again…”
Welcome back to Mixedverse!
The previous server ended awhile back, but due to prolonged interest in the AU and people wanting to do more for it, we’ve rebooted it! It’s a bit different now, though.
When we began the last server, most people didn’t really understand how things worked or exactly what was happening. Our biggest misunderstanding was assuming that MV (Mirrorverse) characters were being brought into the NV (Normalverse) world, rather then them both being merged into a middle ground.
Although that is still our official lore for this AU, we decided for the RP server we would go along with it! So…
For our AU, it’s the opposite of that.
The characters from the NV world have been sucked into the MV world, while going about their business. All you have to do to get there is blink.
Other Changes:
The most important changes have been to the application and muse receiving processes.
Applications for the most part have stayed the same, however there’s a new concept called muse lock that we’re using.
There are short periods where muses are unlocked. You may claim characters, trade characters with other people, and whatever else you wish to do with them during this time. However..
When you are muse locked you may not claim any new characters or obtain new characters in anyway. The only thing that you can still do is drop muses, however they may not be replaced with a new one until the next time that muses are unlocked.
Well, what are the times that muses are unlocked? What does that mean for joining?
Sadly, another thing that we’re going to be including is that you can only join while muses are unlocked. However, we will be accepting applications at any time! They’ll just only be approved once new muses can be taken. This also gives us time to look over everything and make sure that everyone has a fair shot at getting the muses that they want.
We are currently accepting applications!
The next time muses will be unlocked: July 1st - 4th 2019 ---------------------------

Two verses merge, they’re similar but the people that reside in them are.. very different.And no one knows who’s who.
“Two verses merge, they’re similar but the people that reside in them are.. very different. And no one knows who’s who.”
Welcome to the Mixedverse AU! It’s a Mirrorverse AU where MV characters and normal characters (Normalverse) have been introduced to a similar, middle-ground verse.
At first, they might not notice anything at first. Maybe they only run into people from the same verse at first- But then, they notice that one of their friends is actually COMPLETELY abnormal. Slowly but surely they’ll eventually realize that something is wrong.
This is a good opportunity to explore different types of relationships! As well as have a slightly over-arching plot over the entire story.
Mirrorverse Info
Mirrorverse is an AU that was inspired by the Spookyfish episode of South Park, where a mirrored version of Stan, Kyle, and Cartman came into the world. It’s most commonly known where it was represented in a Kyman fanfic, as well as artwork from sleepyeule. You do not need to have read this fic.
The basic premise is that the characters are.. well, mirrored. That doesn’t mean they’re complete opposites, but some of their most important traits are removed. The best example of this is with Cartman. Mirrorverse Cartman has his general horrible and selfishness removed- Which leaves him kind, empathetic, but he’s still pretty gullible and manipulative like he is normally.
[Note; if anyone is shying away from taking an MV character because they either don’t know how a character would act or haven’t done it before- I suggest taking a muse you normally wouldn’t do since they’re going to be mirrored. As well as, ask for help if you’re having trouble at all.]
Normalverse Info
Normalverse is a weird thing to call it, but it’s basically just the canon world! The characters are just as you know them, and there’s nothing too big to note.

Rules
Rules for the Discord group!
1. Have common decency. I’d prefer not to have multiple rules just telling you to be a chill person and respect people. No harassment, bullying, shaming people, etc. Just be reasonable, you don’t have to get along with everyone or be completely unconditionally nice, obviously, but be civil!
2. If you’re uncomfortable, tell someone. This goes hand in hand with the first thing, but if you have drama going on with someone, if you’re being harassed, or if you have a problem with someone, tell a mod or the owner. They’re there for a reason: to help you!
3. Stay in character. Keep in character, there will be a bit more lee-way for Mirrorverse characters than for Normalverse characters since they’re up to interpretation. There will still be standards for them, though, and expectations for how they should act in a mirrored sense. Relationships shouldn’t be changed entirely and characters shouldn’t have sporadic personality changes.
4. Whatever’s in the show is okay. South Park uses slurs constantly, is generally inappropriate and gross, and if you’ve watched the show then you should expect this. I’m completely up for helping people feel more comfortable if they do have things that really upset them, but I’d like to make it clear that I want people to be comfortable using what’s been aired on public television.
5. Minors are allowed. We’re more selective when it comes to people that are underage, but we do allow them! There’s no NSFW allowed, and be aware that some of the people you might interact with could be under 18.
6. Roleplay etiquette. Basically, follow the basic, more well-known roleplaying rules. No god-modding, auto-hitting, mary sues, self-inserts, match post length, try to keep from really small posts if you’re doing literate RP.
7. IC =/= OOC. If a character says something mean to a character in a roleplay, that’s from a character to another character. It’s not to you personally, and those things should be entirely independent of each other.
8. Please be active. If you know you have issues with activity, which is perfectly fine, please inform someone and try to take a role that’s not going to require you to be there constantly. IE, someone playing Stan and only being here once a week could be a problem, but someone playing a character like Pip or a kinder would be completely acceptable.
9. No ship drama. Please, don’t force-ship, don’t shame people for certain ships, for liking things, for not liking things. Shipping is really subjective and some people are different. However, on that note, pedophilic and incestuous ships aren’t accepted in this server in any respect.
10. Characters can die. Muses can be seriously injured and even killed! If a muse is killed, they will never be brought back.
11. Joining? To join the Discord server, submit an application to this Tumblr using the application. If you know someone that’s already in the server, it’s generally easier to get in.
We are accepting applications at all times!
We will be approving applications and letting people join the server through July 1st - 4th 2019.

Note
What actually happened was she made a tweet calling out queer baiting in the mc community that wasn’t aimed at dream but stans assumed it was about him. They started saying she was racist and hated black people because she used aave. This was her introduction to learning about aave and because of that responded badly. After her community discussed it with her she now understands how it can be harmful. She accidentally read out the b slur and I’m not trying to excuse it but she didn’t call someone it or use it maliciously. She was tricked into saying the n slur phonetically through a donation 7 years ago and again I’m not saying that’s okay but in both instances she immediately apologized and has apologized multiple times since then. Dream told her she should just ignore situations like this like he’s learned to because if he addresses things it just brings more attention to it. She has adhd herself and never even made fun of his adhd traits although there were people in chat making fun of him for it. She didn’t try to force him to come out as straight. Her gay friend was asking him. (A lot of people are saying she said things that were said by other people in the call she was trying to be more neutral). After the call they got more bold because they were shown ss of things he said. I’m all for calling people out for their ignorance and mistakes but a lot of the stans are just playing telephone and don’t know what they’re talking about. I just think it’s good to not spread false narratives. There are a lot more false claims you didn’t mention some that are just lies and others that were misunderstandings because she’s a successful troll. People should hold her accountable for what she’s done but I don’t think all the false information being spread is fair especially since it lead to her being doxed
okay, thanks for letting me know! i don’t really know or care much about dream smp drama, i was just reblogging info from a mutual. i’ll factcheck next time, but it’s kind of hard to do that with dream smp if you don’t know exactly where/how to look. idk how much of what you’re saying is true and idk how much of what they were saying is true, so anyone who has conflicting information with this is welcome to tell me! i’m actually genuinely curious now about how much exactly is correct. i’m not sure what you mean by “false claims that you didn’t mention”, though.

Relationships
Mother/Mother Figure: Roxane Tweedle
Relationships:
My mother is a very strange woman. She is very paranoid and always moving around the town. She is very attentive to my sister and I’s needs and tends to try to give us anything we could want (which doesn’t mean we actually want it). Whatever time she spends with us usually driving us around to wherever it is we’re going and it’s usually spent with us all terribly singing along to the radio and laughing. Mom isn’t one to want to sit and listen to us or to give us advice as she has a short attention span (probably where Olivia gets it from). She might not be the best mother but she does try and I still love her.
Father/Father Figure: Jackson Tweedle
Relationships:
My father, on the other hand, tends to love to sit and listen to (gossip with) us. He loves to try and smother with us with anything we ask for (Olivia and I honestly made it a game to see how far he would go to get us what we wanted… he has to fail). Dad is just as paranoid as mom is but he hides it a lot better. He was also the one that signed me up for martial arts which caused a huge argument between parents. My dad has been known to also beat the shit out of anyone who dares insult us or my mother (probably where I got it from).
Brothers/Brother Figures: N/A
Relationships: N/A
Sisters/Sister Figures: Olivia Tweedle
Relationships:
As dumb as Olivia can be, she is a very loyal friend and sister. I have, obviously, known her my entire life and she has never let me down (In terms of loyalty and reliability not much else). She can deal with my violent tendencies ad overly snarky demeanor. I can (most of the time) deal with her oblivious, careless attitude. We rarely fight and get along better than most sisters do and I’m pretty happy to have her as my sister.
Aunts/Aunt Figures: Nancy Tweak
Relationships:
Aunt Nancy is very sweet. She is always supportive whatever decision we make even if it might not be the right one. She is also pretty good at telling right from wrong and standing up when she thinks we’re doing something terrible. As supportive as she is she doesn’t really listen and is known to just leave us to our devices for long periods of time. She honestly borders on child neglect with how little she pays attention to us or Tweek.
Uncle/Uncle Figures: Richard Tweak
Relationships:
Uncle Richard is much worse than Aunt Nancy. All he cares about is his business and pays no attention to anything any of his family does. That’s not to say he doesn’t care, he does... he just cares more about his coffee shop. He also does anything to boost his shop which includes manipulating us and Tweek to do his bidding. Yeah, I don’t like my uncle.
Cousins/Cousin Figures: Tweek Tweak
Relationships:
I adore my cousin Tweek. As jitter and jumpy as he is I find him absolutely adorable. I’m usually the one to take the late night calls and now late night talks about pressure and Underpants Gnomes. I try to comfort him but it doesn’t always work cuz this kid is riddled with anxiety. When he’s calmer (calmer, NOT calm) he is pretty fun to hang around and his friends are pretty crazy. You wouldn’t think this but Tweek is surprisingly protective of Olivia and I. He has actually attacked some people he thought had hurt us emotionally or physically.
Nieces/Niece Figures: N/A
Relationships: N/A
Nephews/Nephew Figures: N/A
Relationships: N/A
Sons/Son Figures: N/A
Relationships: N/A
Daughter/Daughter Figures: N/A
Relationships: N/A
Current Guardian: The Tweaks
Relationship: I get along well with Aunt Nancy (I mean she tries), I hate uncle Richard (I know for a fact he’s the entire reason for Tweaks anxiety), and I adore Tweak
Current Significant Other: Kenny McCormick
Relationship:
Kenny McCormick was never the boy I saw myself dating. Simply put he was a major player and I wanted commitment.Kenny went around on any girl that moved and I was no exception, however, I was one of the very few who resisted his… charm. That got him interested and he is surprisingly persistent but so am I. It was a long game of cat and mouse where he would find me and drop cheesy pickup lines, offer compliments, and ask me out over and over while I offered sarcastic comment after witty comeback (if I do say so myself). The game turned into a surprisingly close friendship where the flirting got more jokey and less serious, where his true colors showed and that was when I finally caught feeling for the real Kenny McCormick. The overly perverted, vulgar, overprotective big brother Kenny. It didn’t take me to long to ask him on a date and imagine my surprise when this guy decided to actually give a committed relationship a try. I’m glad he did because now I know the jealous, overprotective, poorly timed joke slinging Kenny too. Obviously, we have a very touchy-feely relationship (which is weird because I’m not a big fan of being touched).

In Defense of Sammy Sosa
I never loved Sammy Sosa. I just want to be clear about that from the get-go. My favorite player growing up was Andre Dawson. And I used to have to defend that choice, even to other Cubs fans who favored Ryne Sandberg and Mark Grace. But Dawson was always my guy. Then to see Sosa come in, play the same position and completely eclipse everything Dawson ever did was almost personal to me. Like, the right field bleachers is doing the ‘salami’ to Sosa? That was Andre’s Army! I almost felt a sense of betrayal.
On top of an unnecessary personal loyalty to Dawson, I felt like the Great Home Run Chase of 1998 brought out a bandwagon element to the Cubs that I was uncomfortable embracing. And I thought all the anticipation over Sosa’s home runs made fans at Wrigley stupid - cheering for any ball hit into the air, only to get faked out by easy fly balls. Cubs fans got a bad rap for being drunken idiots who didn’t know the game, didn’t follow the game and were just there to be morons. I heard it all the time from Cardinals fans and White Sox fans. And I hated that it was at least partially true.
Here’s the thing though: none of that is Sosa’s fault. He didn’t make new fans stupid or tell them to get drunk at the ballpark. Hell, a lot of that was the culture of the park, the culture of the city and the fact that every national broadcast of a Cubs game from 1982-1997 was announced by a beloved grandfatherly figure who also happened to be slurring every word by the 7th inning. I mean, I’ve been drunk at Wrigley Field a number of times. I love that park. I love that city. I loved being drunk there. And I loved Harry Caray too. At least in hindsight. So why not try to love Sosa?
Before I start naming the reasons to not love Sosa that I assume you’re probably thinking of, let me remind you as much as I need to remind myself; There were many times Sammy Sosa made you happy. REALLY happy. I mean, those bleacher bums in right kinda had a point. And so did the bandwagon dipshits. Sosa was pretty goddamn exciting sprinting out to right and doing the pop-and-hop after he crushed one onto Waveland. There was also the playful way he tapped his chest and blew kisses to the camera. He gave us June of ’98, when he hit 20 home runs in a month, which is an all-time record. And that home run chase was actually fucking great. The whole country got swept up in it, no matter how clouded it seems now in 20/20 hindsight. And it could be argued that the ’98 season helped to erase the memory of the ’94 strike and put the game back in the good graces of the fans.
There was also the American flag home run in the first game at Wrigley after 9/11. And the two-run home run in the bottom of the 9th in Game 1 of the NLCS in 2003. Yeah, that series isn’t fun to think about now, but Sosa hit .308/.455/.577 in those seven NLCS games. So you can blame Steve Bartman or Alex Gonzalez or anybody else until the cows come home. But nobody in their right mind can blame Sosa.
Okay. Now that we reminded ourselves how happy he made us, we can go further into just how good he was.
Sosa was the best player on the Cubs (in terms of fWAR) from 1994-1996 and then from 1998-2002. He didn’t really qualify in ’92. Grace was better in ’93 and ‘97. Moises Alou surpassed him in 2003. And we’ll get to 2004. But during his overall time in Chicago, Sosa was almost twice as good as the next best player (Grace) in Wins Above Replacement. If you go off of Bill James’ Superstar accomplishments list, it breaks down like this…
1993. Member of the 30/30 Club (33 home runs and 36 stolen bases). 4.1 WAR.
1994. .545 SLG. .300 AVG.
1995. Member of the 30/30 Club (36 home runs and 34 stolen bases). 119 RBI. .500 SLG. 5.3 WAR.
1996. 40 home runs. 100 RBI. .564 SLG. 5.4 WAR.
1997. 36 home runs. 119 RBI.
1998. He briefly held the single-season home run record. Named the National League MVP. Led the league in RBI (158). Led the league in Runs scored (134). 66 home runs. .647 SLG. 6.5 WAR. .308 AVG.
1999. 63 home runs. Started in the All-Star Game. 141 RBI. 114 Runs. .635 SLG. 4.8 WAR.
2000. Led the league in Home Runs (50). .406 OBP. Started in the All-Star Game. 138 RBI. 106 Runs. .634 SLG. 5.7 WAR. .320 AVG.
2001. Led the league in RBI (160). Led the league in Runs scored (146). 64 home runs. That made him the only player in history with three seasons of 60 home runs. .437 OBP. Started in the All-Star Game. .737 SLG. 10.3 WAR. .328 AVG.
2002. Led the league in Runs scored (122). Led the league in Home Runs (49). Started in the All-Star Game. 108 RBI. .594 SLG. 5.7 WAR.
2003. 40 home runs. 103 RBI. .553 SLG.
2004. 35 home runs. Started in the All-Star Game. .517 SLG.
Boy, look at all that selfish play. James ranks him as a bona fide superstar from 1998-2003. He hit more home runs over a 5-year period and over a 10-year period than any other player in Major League history. He’s the all-time Cubs leader in home runs (545). Of the 10 players with the most-comparable stats, 9 (Jim Thome, Mike Schmidt, Reggie Jackson, Ken Griffey Jr., Harmon Killebrew, Eddie Mathews, Mickey Mantle, Willie Stargell and Willie McCovey) are in the Hall of Fame. He was Sports Illustrated’s co-Sportsman of the Year in 1998. And, not for nothing, Bill Clinton invited him as his guest to the 1999 State of the Union address, where he sat in between Hillary Clinton and Tipper Gore and was one seat over from Rosa Parks.
Advanced stats tell a slightly different story than the standard ones do. If you look at Sosa only in terms of WAR, he basically only had two elite seasons (1998 and 2001) and JAWS ranks him as the 18th-greatest right fielder of all time, below the average standards for the position amongst Hall of Famers (which are higher standards than any other position, anyway due to Babe Ruth, Hank Aaron and Stan Musial having played in right) and behind non-Hall players like Larry Walker, Shoeless Joe Jackson, Dwight Evans and Reggie Smith.
However, Sosa’s peak (WAR7) is right above the average for all 25 hall of famers at the position. Which isn’t nothing. He’s also 5th all-time in WAR for all Cubs players (behind Cap Anson, Ron Santo, Ernie Banks and Ryne Sandberg, but ahead of Billy Williams) and the Hall of Stats site puts him in their Hall of Fame, considers him the 16th-best right fielder of all time (one spot behind Dawson, which I don’t mind) and the 6th-greatest Cub of all time (behind Anson, Santo, Sandberg, Banks and Gabby Hartnett).
Okay. Now that we reminded you how happy he made you, and how he ranks as an all-time great, especially an all-time great Cub, we can talk about some of the negatives.
In 2003, Sosa got caught with a corked bat. Fine. I probably don’t need to find a physicist to tell you how corking a modern bat doesn’t really do anything besides make it lighter. But the league already disciplined Sosa for that and, in the process, examined 76 of his bats and found nothing else. Maybe it was an honest mistake. Maybe he doctored one bat for batting practice, thinking it did anything. And then maybe he accidentally used it in a game. So what? How that negates everything I’ve already listed above is beyond me. The corked bat should be a nonissue.
Now we can talk about 2004. At the end of the disappointing 2004 season (where the Cubs actually won one more game than than their previous NLCS-bound season), Sosa showed up late to the final home game, asked to sit out the game, never even dressed for that game and then went home early. He claimed he didn’t leave until the 7th inning, but security footage showed him leaving shortly after the start of the game. Then one of his teammates (rumored to be Kerry Wood, Paul Bako or Todd Walker) smashed his salsa-blaring boombox, which apparently sent the message to the organization that his teammates wanted him gone. Or that they hated him for playing the same CD every day. Either way, the Cubs shipped Sosa off to Baltimore in January, to make for a pretty inauspicious ending to his pretty spectacular tenure in Chicago.
So maybe Sosa shouldn’t have done all that in 2004. And he probably shouldn’t have criticized manager, Dusty Baker the next day either. But he and Baker patched it up pretty quickly during the offseason. And Sosa has since apologized for everything and even paid a $87,500 fine for the incident. And listen, that season was frustrating for everyone involved. Especially when the long-suffering Cubs had gotten so close the year before. Sosa, who had suffered bizarre injuries and slumped for large portions of the season, felt like he was taking the brunt of the blame for his team’s failures. He also felt humiliated by being dropped to 6th in the order by Baker. There are better ways it could have been handled. But fans booing his image at the Cubs Convention the following winter is just as fucking petty.
Look, those were really dark times for the Cubs fanbase. And I mean downright ugly. I cringe even thinking about the way the Wrigley Field fans treated Bartman during Game 6 the previous year. I cringe thinking about those fans during the NLDS in 2008 after Ryan Dempster gave up the grand slam to James Loney in the 5th inning of Game 1. And I think it took multiple years and a major cultural change in the organization before it even started to get better.
But don’t tell me Sosa walked out on the fans. He walked out on Dusty Baker. And you don’t even like Dusty Baker. It was a meaningless game the Cubs won 10-8 anyway. Nobody can honestly tell me they still give a fuck about that game. And you also don’t give a shit about the precious Cubs fan base. Especially not after the way you treated Bartman. Oh, look at us, the precious Cubs fans! We wanted to kill one of our own just because he was easiest to scapegoat for all our hurt feelings and years of frustration.
I think the reality of the situation is that Sosa came to symbolize an era of dashed hopes and futility to the bandwagon contingent, too fickle to deserve calling themselves Cubs fans to begin with. If you hate frustration and futility, as a Cubs fan, you can also hate Ernie Banks, Fergie Jenkins, Billy Williams, Greg Maddux, Ryne Sandberg and any other Cubs player who was unfortunate enough to play for that team during the miserable 108-year drought.
And we still haven’t talked about steroids.
Fine. During a time the Cubs fanbase decided they hated Sosa, anyway, he appeared in those infamous Congressional hearings and had his lawyer read his incredibly vague statement for him due to English being his second language. You want to be mad about that? Cool. Do you know how much money the U.S. government wasted trying to catch Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens in a perjury case? Well, they came up with exactly nothing for all their efforts. And the same shit would have happened with Sosa too.
His lawyer read his carefully worded statement in English. The statement left room for him to have technically taken steroids orally, in pill form, from a prescription from a doctor in the Dominican Republic. Sosa didn’t have to trip up on the wording in the hearing. And your tax dollars went to a road or a school instead. Or a war in the Middle East. Whatever. You get my point.
Then there’s the 2009 article in the New York Times naming Sosa as one of the ‘anonymous’ players who tested positive for PED’s in 2003. Ugh. Do you know how many problems there are with citing that story as your reason Sosa did steroids? Okay sure, Doctor SuperFan, what drug did he do then? What was the source of the information? Can the test you’re citing distinguish between PEDs and over the counter, legal drugs? You have no earthly idea.
And this was in the Wild West days of the league before they even had a PED policy, in an era of almost total complicity, from the fans and all the way up to the commissioner’s office. Sosa never actually failed a drug test. He was never actually disciplined by the league. And all you have is your eyeballs and the thoughts and opinions of other clueless fans who are also not biochemists, don’t really know how PED’s can even affect baseball performance, don’t know about Sosa’s dogged work with Jeff Pentland in the batting cages after the 1997 season, don’t even lift fucking weights to know how that works and probably still get a red ass over his corked bat for the same ignorant reasons.
Don’t get me wrong. He totally did steroids.
But I can’t prove it. And either can your buddy from work or the four guys you know who still try to say Barry Bonds’ head got three times bigger or whatever. That’s my point. And by now you’ve already forgotten that Sammy Sosa, on several occasions, made you really, really fucking happy.
So what else? What other anti-Sosa arguments could you possibly have? Tom Ricketts wants an apology from him? Tom Ricketts has $900 million. Why doesn’t Tom Ricketts apologize for the wage theft and economic scarcity that allows him to have that type of money in the first place (to paraphrase a meme I saw posted about Bruce Wayne one time). But talk about cheating. Dude is an investment banker. I don’t think he gets to star in his own morality play on this one.
Sosa put asses in seats for 13 years in Chicago. For the Tribune Company. He owes Tom Ricketts fuck all. Especially since Ricketts, like your buddy from work, can’t prove a goddamn thing about his PED use. He doesn’t have special information about it because he’s rich. Plus, the same phony-pearl-clutching, butt-hurt Ricketts allowed the Cubs to hire twice-busted steroid user, Manny Ramirez, as a hitting consultant in 2015 and 2016. That’s him in the photo above smiling like he didn’t get caught taking female fertility drugs in 2009. Meanwhile at the 100-year celebration at Wrigley Field, as well as the Cubs’ World Series celebrations, everyone had to pretend Sosa never existed, that he never did all the wonderful things he did for the team and that he never made you really, REALLY happy. The only thing Ricketts should be mad about is that he didn’t own the team when Sosa was making them millions in merchandise sales. Shut up, rich kid.
As Cubs fans, it’s time we let all this shit go. Just like we let most of the rest of the old culture go. Thankfully, “That’s Cub” and other Maddonisms replaced the “Cubby Occurrences” of Lou Piniella or the frustrations of the Dusty Baker era. Or any other era, for that matter. We weathered the storm of Game 7 in 2016. Literally and figuratively, thanks to Jason Hayward. We watched Kris Bryant slip on the grass and throw a ball to Anthony Rizzo that could have easily sailed over his head, kept the inning going for Cleveland in the 10th and added to our collective list of miseries. But it somehow didn’t happen. The throw found its way to Rizzo’s glove. The Cubs won the goddamn World Series. They had a giant parade. Even Bartman got himself a ring. And I’m supposed to be mad that Sammy Sosa took a pill to make himself better at baseball over 14 years ago? Beat it, nerd.
Barry Bonds is getting his number retired by the Giants later this year. Mark McGwire has been back in Major League dugouts. Roger Clemens has too. And his number 21 jersey hasn’t been used by the Red Sox since he left in 1996. Sammy Sosa had to hit his 600th career home run off of Jason Marquis, while Marqis was wearing Sosa’s rightful number 21 jersey for the fucking Cubs. How’s that for irony?
Sosa’s already been punished long enough. They all have. Sosa isn’t getting into the Hall of Fame any time soon. He got less than 8% of the vote last year. In his 6th year on the ballot. And he’s basically been banished into baseball exile for over a decade like he was named an enemy of the people in some Stalin-esque purge. It’s been 14 years. Contaminating food or water for terrorist purposes only gets you 10 years. Jesus Christ.
But it doesn’t have to be this way. By now the Cubs can put the ugliness of the drought years behind them and actually honor a man who turned so many people at Wrigley into fans in the first place.
Forgive Sammy Sosa, everyone. He took nothing from you. He only gave to you. And remember, he made you really, really happy.
(Decide later if this was all just a trick so the Cubs also retire Dawson’s number and honor him with his own appreciation day... Since, you know, they can’t really do it honestly without taking care of Sosa first.)

an explanation of why adam is problematic
Reasons not to stan Adam from Shatter Me.
1. He makes everything about himself.
2. He touched her in her sleep without telling her despite her reservations about being touched by him or anyone.
3. He saw Juliette being taken advantage of and even noticed that she was bruised/beat and did nothing. He did not speak to her to offer her comfort, he did not try to protect her, he did not stand up for her. He merely stood by and watched and fell in “love” with her while she suffered.
4. He likes her because of the fact she never fought back or stood up for herself. He likes her because she is defenseless and weak. He equates “good” to being the type of person who sits back and lets people walk over her.
5. He is actually obsessed with her (or at least the image of her that he has in his head.) Unlike Warner, whose motivations were his mother’s health and psyche, Adam has merely been infatuated Juliette for years for no reason other than she never stood up for herself.
6. When she tries to break up with him for his safety, he absolutely loses his mind. “It doesn’t feel okay, Juliette, it feels like the opposite of whatever the hell okay is.” She continues to say it’s because she doesn’t want to hurt him but he refuses to let her break up with him to the point she feels “trapped”.
Side note: me as Kenji.
7. She tries to break up with him again and he refuses to let her, trying to persuade her otherwise and making scene in front of everyone at Omega Point. He accuses her of, “You’re hurting me now. You’re killing me.”
8. They are in the middle of a serious situation in the middle of the night and they need to talk to Castle but Adam is focused on petty relationship drama instead.
9. Juliette is worried about him and he uses that as an excuse to lash out at her.
10. Once again, he begs her to take him back even though she doesn’t want to be with him, going as far as guilt-tripping her because no one has “loved” him the way she has. This is the third time she has to tell him she doesn’t want to be with him.
11. She tells him she shot Anderson (his father) and doesn’t regret it and that she feels out of control and not okay. Again, he makes it about their relationship and how “good” she is.
12. Again, Adam makes everything about himself when everyone finds out Warner has a power and is one of them.
13. He has anger issues and frequently resorts to violence (and scares little kids in the process).
14. Warner, who has no family aside from the abusive father he shares with Adam (Anderson) and his tortured mother, has a younger brother in James but Adam refuses to tell him.
15. He lashes out at his younger brother James, who’s 10 years old, because of a nickname.
16. He lashes out at James again and grabs his arms making James “flinch” and then forces James to call him sir.
17. He gets irrationally mad at Juliette for asking a simple question about Warner.
18. He doesn’t believe Juliette is capable of handling a weapon and thinks, “It’s not good to make her think she can do this kind of thing when really, it’ll probably get her killed.”
19. She dumped him over a month ago but he still stakes claim on her.
20. Kenji cares more about getting Juliette back then Adam does.
21. He says, “What would [Juliette] do if I weren’t there to help her? She needs me.” as though Juliette is incompetent and needs a man to protect her at all times.
Another side note: I think Warner describes Juliette/Adam’s relationship well here. Juliette was in love with Adam because he offered her something no one else had before—basic kindness. No one has ever treated her as anything other than a monster so when someone did, she jumped at the chance (especially since he could touch her) and let herself fall for him. Similarly, Adam is only in love with his perception of her as a “nice” girl and not a powerful woman who can take over the country. They both fell in love with what what they saw upon first sight.
22. He minimizes the suffering and torment that Juliette has gone through in a very cruel manner to make himself feel better about choosing not to fight.
23. He says, “This doesn’t sound like you,” when Juliette speaks her mind about wanting to fight, furthering the point that he never really loved her for who she is but the “nice” girl he thought she was.
24. He causes a scene and forces Juliette into discussing a personal matter in front of of everyone and says once again it’s like he doesn’t even know her anymore (he never did). He also makes everything about himself again. “What about me? What about our relationship? When did that stop being enough for you?”
25. He shuts her down when she tries to explain, lashing out and calling her words “bullshit”.
26. Again, even though Juliette wants to discuss the situation privately he forces her to air their dirty laundry out for everyone to see, so he can make a spectacle. He also uses an ableist slur to get his point across.
27. He blames Kenji for his relationship problems even though Kenji didn’t do anything.
28. He calls Juliette stupid and accuses her of “acting like a completely different person”.
29. He lashes out at her (and Kenji) again and acts like she’s done something terrible by saying he isn’t her boyfriend (even though she told him THREE times in Unravel Me that she doesn’t want to be with him).
30. He accuses Juliette of acting like a stupid child (ironic, considering the way he’s acting).
31. He resorts to violence again as a means of getting his point across.
32. Adam tells Juliette to drop dead.
33. He refuses to believe they broke up even though it’s been made clear multiple times and looks at her with “pure, unadulterated hatred”.
34. He says he was happier when he thought she was dead and then accuses of being sick in the head because she’s “throwing [everything he told her] back in [his] face”.
35. He accuses her of being a coward and kicks her out of his house, onto the street.
36. He acts like it’s the end of the world because he has to accept help from his ex-girlfriend for the sake of his younger brother and he wants to “kill himself” because of it all while calling her insane.
37. When she says she’s not going to tolerate his insults and he lashes out again and accuses her of cheating on him (even though they were broken up).
38. He threatens Juliette after she tells him to tell Warner that James is his brother too (because Warner’s mother just died).
39. He grabs her and tries to convince her again that they could’ve been together.
40. He tries to seriously injure/kill Kenji for sticking up for Juliette, resorting to violent tendencies again.
41. He doesn’t apologize for trying to hurt Kenji and instead “flips him off”.
42. Juliette has to plead with Adam for him to finally tell Warner that they’re brothers.
43. Last but not least, the one redeeming factor about Adam, his love for James, shows how little he loved Juliette in the first place. When James runs into Adam, he smiles a smile that Juliette has never seen before which means it was never directed towards her.
