[day-mark]

twitch im in your walls. havent finished s2 of squid game yet but some of these games wouldve worked so well in squidcraft 3?? i wouldve loved to have seen these played in game 😿

[milder-manners]

does ccdream has his Disney princess abilities? Also if all the ccdream are there, has ccsapnap surpriced anyone by his more shy actitud than the csapnap they know?

cc!Dream does not have his Disney princess abilities, unfortunately. But the animals of Techno's cabin generally really like this guy because he's quiet and respectful. cc!Dream is a bit miffed that there's no cats at c!Techno's place though. Why.

Oh all of c! guys are caught off guard by cc!Sapnap's shy nature. He's also a lot nicer to all the animals (cc!Techno was watching him closely when he first brought him to the cabin), which made c!Niki like him much more when she was initially hesitant about the guy.

Actually the thing that catches the c!s most off guard is the complete lack of combat ability from the three of them. That's the biggest difference felt from the Syndicate+c!Dream, that these guys aren't a threat and actually need to ask for help to get things done. And they do ask for help! Very respectfully (they made cc!Dream do it).

These guys are in a vulnerable position, they need to rely on and trust someone else to help them get home, something c!Dteam (c!Dream and c!Sapnap especially) are rarely ever known to do.

That was really bizarre for the first week.

dnf | t | claiming, mentions of gituation

I want to learn how to write, I guess, so I'm trying to write at least a little thing everyday for dteam omegaverse week and post it on tumblr. This is my first try for the first day. If anyone has any advice, especially with commas and punctuation, please give.

Dream didn't think it through. They both didn't think it through but Dream only blames himself because he is the alpha. Okay, maybe it is not right to think of George through the lens of traditional alpha/omega dynamic, and he would definitely be offended if he knew that Dream only blames himself, but Dream can't help it. Not in a way that takes any agency from George, but in a way that puts pressure on himself to think about things earlier and protect him from any trouble. And in trouble they are right now, complicated sorta pickle.

The claiming mark is huge.

Calming marks, as they are, vary from person to person, from omega to omega, and the size of the jaw and passion of their alphas. And passionate Dream definitely was, he remembers, feeling prickles of embarrassment on the bridge of his nose and the tips of his ears.

The most recent of George's heats was magical. Okay, maybe that's not the right word, because it was wet, potent, slippery, loud, and kinda gross, thinking about it outside of it. But that one was special, it was the one they both decided to take their relationship further. To stake their claim and tie the metaphorical knot. Though the very much real knot during the process was also involved.

Dream is so giddy thinking about George finally agreeing to entrust everything in him. He embarrassedly admitted that he was willing to do it much much earlier, he came along with Dream to this content creation journey after all. But Dream still couldn't wrap his mind around it. It didn't really matter because this was the moment when Dream finally felt ready. After everything ruined on top of George's head, and the whole internet decided to turn their backs on him, Dream needed to hold him close, promising that he, at least, will try to protect him from everything. George choosing not to run away and leave everything behind, go back to England, or some other dreaded thing, shook Dream to his core. It struck him, finally, that Gorge was actually serious. About this. About them.

Even though it was a dark time, George's heat was due, and they talked. They talked about deep topics so much at that time, that it sorta came naturally. George seemed broken open, so exhausted from everything taking its toll on him, that he no longer cared about pretending to put up any walls. And Dream felt like he finally listened to him, and saw, and actually got him, even though he knew him best out of everyone. Trauma really bonded people. So thus they decided they were ready, committed to each other for forever. This was meant to be their bonding heat.

How this skipped his (theirs) mind, he doesn't know.

The claiming mark is huge.

Reaching from the soft place under George's ear almost to his collarbone. Reddish indents of Dream's teeth forever imprinted around George's scent gland, inflamed little bud in the middle. Dream tries really hard to put off his alpha preening at the job well done. It is not good. It is very much not good because there is no way he would ever be able to hide it even under turtle necks or using the strongest of foundations.

“What the fuck are we supposed to do Dream?”, George grumbles making eye contact with him through the mirror they are in front of.

“Your stupid dumb alpha fucked up. I should have known that you wouldn't be able to be normal about it”, he rolls his eyes exaggeratedly.

Dream traces his finger around the healing wound. At least George's omega also seems giddy underneath his mock annoyance, while he shudders underneath the touch of his finger.

“George. I can't be sorry about it. I'll figure something out but now we should wait. You were still planning on taking a break, right? Maybe it will also get a bit smaller when it heals, a bit less noticeable? I guess we will find something that works for you. Now, we should try not to worry about this, right? I couldn't help myself, George. I love you so fucking much. I can't help myself with you, you are right. It's just. I'm just–...”

“Dream.” There are hands scratching in his hair on both sides of his head. George turned to face him during his rumble and his comforting scent hits Dream’s nose. He takes a calming breath mimicking George's and feels his body relaxing. At last, his eyes find George’s already looking at him. “Yes, I want to wait. But maybe after it, it won't matter as much anymore, you know? Maybe there won't be a need to hide it?”

“George… what?”, he can't. He doesn't mean what Dream thinks he means, right? It can't be-

“We are basically married, Dream. Maybe it will be time for everyone to know, you know? We have some time to figure it out, how we want to do this, and what we are comfortable with, but I'm just saying.”

Dream is dumbfounded. Completely starstruck. He understands the words but he can't make sense out of them. That's everything he wants every day. Especially now, after his hormones are going crazy so recently after the bonding. He wants to climb the rooftops and scream his love for George. He feels the need for everyone to know. His alpha so pleased after staking claim over the smartest, kindest, funniest, hottest omega ever. Overwhelmed with the rush of emotions he surges down and kisses George hard. “Yeah… please...”

George kisses him back through his own smile. They will figure it out. They can do it. They can do anything, together.

Hello :D

I want to ask, do anyone want to be my beta read for my dsmp star wars au? 👉👈

It was dteam centric, well more of sapnap centric as a new jedi, but I want to explore others characters from dsmp too!

The problems is I don't know much about star wars ;-;

I watch all trilogy, rouge one, and andor. That's it... I'll try to watch another but my head hurt with so much context for that franchise.. (I know I'm sucks..)

So yeah I need someone who know about basic star wars stuff who like dsmp especially dteam 🙏 but you're not only become my beta read but also my friends to talk with hehe 👉👈

If you interested you can message me, thank you :D

[wildpeachfarm]

I feel like as a fandom we don't talk about snf enough. Like ppl always talk about how pretty George is and they're right but he's also like insanely smart?? like he's the only member of the dteam with a degree(not that that's necessarily indictive of anything but u get my point) and it's in fucking computer science??? he's also insanely well spoken when he needs to be . I also appreciate how timely he is when faced with serious accusations (the gituation but also the racism accusations from I think last yr) and they're really well written. he's also has proven himself to be incredibly empathetic and caring. Listening to him talk about reaching out to technodad after that stream because he's the one who's opinion really mattered to him had me just ☹️☹️☹️.

And sapnap!!! I love sapnap sm. he's so fucking funny it's insane. and he's so so so very loyal. Dream has said before that Sapnap is a ride or die type friend and it shows. he loves his friends so much. Like him hearing that George was depressed and lonely and IMMEDIATELY renewing his passport and going to see him??? I also feel like we just don't appreciate his beauty enough. Like he's insanely attractive and I refuse to be told differently. He is just so lovely and sweet and funny and just skdktk

And when they're together?? They're so funny that they've literally almost made me piss my pants. The two of them love each other sm even if it is different than the way they both love dream. imo them making a conscious effort to change the way they treat each other and their friendship as a whole proves that more than anything.

The dteam as a whole love each other so much its honestly disgusting and it's probably really parasocial but it bothers me sm when ppl try to say otherwise. Especially when it comes to George. Like saying otherwise about Dream or sapnap is gen fucking stupid. (Dream has literally gone on and on about how much he loved them both and said that they're a package deal. And sapnap has repeatedly refered to them as his brothers) but ppl love to say George doesn't love them because he doesn't say it publicly. But like??? He literally moved continents to be with them??? He put his whole life on pause and uprooted himself because he wanted to live with them that fucking badly. Personally I wouldn't do that for anyone I didn't at least care very deeply for. And dream made it a point to bring up George's soft and loving and serious side when everyone else was just talking about him being funny and goofy. Also the Dteam is just so Boy™. idek how to explain it. they're all goofy and love dick jokes and ur mom jokes but are also so loving and well spoken and sweet.

sorry for the parasocial rant I'm just feeling very loving and mushy and I love them sm. ima channel this into the fic

-baby fever anon

YES MORE LOVEPOSTING ABOUT SAPNAP AND GEORGE!!!

They are both so special and dear and I love george's brain and I love sapnaps loyalty and aaa 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

[deadqueerboys]

i always wonder if dteam have any kinks/fetishes

headcannons? if ur down :3

Oh, i do. I do. A lot.

Dteam headcanons

Plot; kinks.

NSFW UNDER THE CUT

Dream

He's likes to command, but he likes even more to be the bottom. He wants someone riding him while he only lays down. He's up for aggression, spanking, biting, and rough kisses. Clay loves the idea of marking someone up, and he has an obvious breeding kink. He likes to cum inside, no condoms. His mind is filled with thoughts about having someone at the top of him. He's a big ass person. He likes to grab and slap, especially on the cheeks, doesn't matter which one. It could be the face or in the ass.

His nails mark someone's back with strength. Besides him receiving hickies because he wants to feel loved. He's a big needy baby. He likes to feel like he belongs to someone, so he does whatever this person wants. He gives him on everything. Fame, money.. anything. He would love to wrap his big arms around someone, bringing this person close to make the person moan and keep fucking themselves on his cock.

George

He likes to keep it safe. He's a big fan of using condom, the safety is the most important thing to him. He doesn't want to get ill over someone dumb. He likes to be the top, but he's kinda soft. George enjoys fucking someone from behind, watching as his cock gets in and out really fast. It's hard to make him cum, it's easier for him to give pleasure than receive. He likes to get between someone's legs, sucking on them like if he didn't had anything else to do. He also loves the idea of someone getting on their knees and sucking his dick while he works on his projects.

He has a special place under his desk where his computer is, enough for someone to get there. This idea drives him crazy, someone so submissive and quiet suckinh his dick while he records with his friends. He moans sometimes, but nobody gives a damn. They know George. They think he's just making fun of losing on heart. He looses his mind, grabbing this person's hair and forcing their to throat him deep. His dick trembling inside of their mouth. He closes his eyes, biting his lower lip to not let another moan escape.

Sapnap

He likes to be on top, supremacy type of top. Sapnap likes to watch someone choke on his cock, forcing everything inside them. He doesn't allow any time to recover before he pulls it out and slaps your cheek. His hand grabbed their throat, forcing them to barely breathe. He's also very possessive. He doesn't allow his person or partner to go out or have other friends. This person has to be his and his only. He loves to make painful positions, maybe fucking on the floor just so he could see their knees hurting. He's never a bottom. He needs the feeling of being someone's god.

He's also very into roleplay. He likes to be called daddy and master. His mind is a wild place. Sapnap never lets anyone touch his partner. It's too risky to let them have a small talk with someone. He doesn't love the idea of a condom, but he uses it, just in case someone has risks. He likes to be praised, and he also loves to scream at someone, always making them know their places or else he will get really mad at them. He's the boss, and everybody knows it.

[the-cockroach-that-survived]

I’m ranting again and sorry but I don’t care if you disagree with me. I am very solid in my values and beliefs and it stresses me out to feel pressured to defend myself or argue with people, which on the internet I have also been shown time and time again will not listen to me no matter what I say, so I will probably just ignore and/or block you. You can call that immature, but with the growth and lessons I’ve gone through, it is quite the opposite. I’m learning to have the strength to choose peace rather than argue with people who I know I disagree with on more fundamental levels /lh

That being said, another disconnect I have with people considering the DTeam to be bad people for some of the stuff they HAVE actually done is simply a base moral difference

I believe that EVERYONE, no matter HOW bad or harmful they’ve been, shouldn’t be tied to that for the rest of their life. I get wanting to do that, especially if it’s something really bad or something that has hurt you directly, but I genuinely see it as no better than holding a grudge and I see that as immature and acting on hurt rather than empathy

I GENUINELY believe that everyone can grow and change at any point in their lives no matter what their past is. Every human still deserves empathy and care because you will never fix hurt and hate with hurt and hate, and the idea that anyone should “know better” because of their age or whatever else is something I find, and have always found, ridiculous and half the time ends up turning into ableism (considering many neurodivergent people will BIOLOGICALLY take longer to develop/understand or will permanently struggle with social cues/development and general things seen as maturity, growth, healing, or whatever else is deemed necessary for fitting into norms. Our brains function differently, that is a scientific fact)

Along with that, I don’t agree with the idea that people who are content creators should be held to a higher moral or responsible standard than anyone else just because they’re creators. I don’t care how popular they are, I don’t care who their primary demographic is, if someone is a content creator for personal reasons such as expression or fun or anything else, really anything that isn’t inherently and intentionally teaching or political in purpose, they should not be held to a higher standard than the average person JUST because there’s more eyes on them, especially in an age where nearly EVERYONE has some form of an online presence. It’s unfair and unrealistic

Everyone likes to try and say that we need to remember that creators are also just people like the rest of us, until they start acting like people in a way that you disagree with. Until they make mistakes. Until they do something harmful. Until they aren’t the most responsible they can be about something.

I hate the idea of creators automatically becoming brands or leaders or teachers rather than just people the second they get popular or start making money off of it. They are still people just like the rest of us, they make mistakes, they react emotionally, it happens

People will say that the DTeam haven’t learned from their mistakes or that they keep making the same mistakes over and over again, or some of their actions are irredeemable. People are entitled to that perspective but I simply don’t agree with it. A lot of examples people will use for the DTeam “not learning or maturing” from their mistakes is them being “irresponsible” or reactionary with their responses. You know who else does that? Most creators, especially in this specific group (being mainly the DSMP and anyone adjacent to them). In fact, most situations where the DTeam (Dream especially because ofc everyone always has the most problem with Dream) react poorly or “immaturely” to something, its because THEY are being treated poorly and immaturely. They are being harrassed, they are being accused, they are being lied about, they are being mocked. I don’t understand why so many people find it ok for other creators to treat the DTeam that way but then think it’s terrible when they react poorly

As someone who has followed the DTeam since 2020-21 I can tell you first hand that they very much have grown and matured, it’s just been in some ways that people don’t like or agree with, or every time they do slip up, people like to use that as proof that they haven’t improved, which is just simply not how people work, especially people in this community which is filled with chronically online, often neurodivergent, young adults

Saying that they’re “grown ass men” who “should know better” is a pathetic excuse. It tells me you have no room for nuance or empathy in your perspective, which I do not align with. And again, there is CONSTANTLY hypocrisy and double standards when it comes to how many people see and treat creators, which in my mind automatically make your arguments invalid.

Slight side note, way too many people will tell me they don’t like the DTeam anymore because their community/fandom is toxic. You know. Something that’s normal for any part of the internet and pretty much entirely out of their control. That’s ridiculous, I’m not gonna not like a creator because their fans and antis are stupid or toxic or mean, if that were the case I would not be in literally ANY community or fandom

Also, I find it a little ridiculous to compare Dream reacting immaturely to his first sorta of controversies (such as the speedrun cheating thing) to Dream reacting poorly or immaturely to the controversies he faces now. The controversies he faces now are EXTREMELY more serious and often complex because of their seriousness, and majority of the time has been based on complete misinformation and lies. Anyone would be more likely to react poorly to that sort of thing, no matter how mature they are.

The DTeam are PEOPLE, who at least from my perspective has done far more than good and do not remotely deserve to be seen or treated the way they do, especially considering many people who DO view them that way DONT view other creators who have made similar mistakes or had similar controversies NEARLY as bad as they do the DTeam.

If you dislike them for any reason that is not based on misinformation, that’s fine. You’re entitled to that, I don’t CARE that my friends don’t LIKE them, I CARE that people are SO RIDICULOUS about them and their fans that I GENUINELY HAVE TO WORRY about my friends turning on me because I like them and their content. I had never even seen anyone act that way about ANY creator or media until the quarantine type of chronically online started, and I have never once agreed with it, but it’s so rampant in my generation and social spaces that it’s difficult for me to avoid entirely, which is how I keep ending up being friends with DTeam “antis” and having to worry about this kind of thing at all, and truthfully the main thing that frustrates me about that is that people are so stubborn and caught up in this trend of despising them that I don’t even really get the chance to defend myself for liking them, it just makes people not like me, or at least judge me severely for one of my biggest special interests, which hurts a lot

[mr-soot]

hello! i’ve decided to finally crawl out of the woodwork and try my luck being Silly on this site. i am a c!wilbur fictionkin from the dream smp, and i'd like to hopefully make some friends.

this is a fictionkin blog, NOT a roleplay blog. i take being ‘kin seriously.

my name is wilbur, as you could probably guess. i'm a trans man, aroace, and use he/it pronouns. i am 20 years old as well, so please be aware that i am an adult. feel free to check out my strawpage for more about me!

i block freely. just don’t be a dick or weird me out and you’re fine lol. do not interact if you support the dteam or are wss. i fucking despise those guys. c not cc.

sourcemates please interact, tommy and fundy especially. other wilburs are more than welcome to interact too, hell, even encouraged (provided you're cool with me). shoutout to my very good friend @mr-editor; he’s the reason i made this blog ehehe.

i’m happy to talk with mostly anyone, be it other fictionkins, systems, or just dsmp fans. i like to say hi to a lot of the active dsmp ‘kins i see, but for my own comfort, i will not interact with erets or dreams. no disrespect to you guys though!

i have just one fictotype—c!wilbur, but only pre-revival. i am not kin with revivebur. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ i tend to present myself as pogbur or at least pogtopia-adjacent, but everything prior to revival is relevant to me. i’m very connected to being fictionkin and like being treated as such (politely). in source, i was a blue jay avian, my tommy was a moobloom hybrid, and also i was a much better dad to my fundy than in canon. also, i’m probably one of the only wilburs you’ll ever come across that genuinely does not care about tntduo in the slightest. i do have a bit of canon divergence, but i’d say i’m relatively canon compliant when it comes to the big stuff.

my tags:

#you have mail! › asks

#the silly › my canon

#this guy never stops yapping › rambling

#finally using that degree › art

#dsmp › canon characters

#strawpage › responses

#misc › other posts

now that all that’s out of the way, my messages and ask box are always open! i love talking to people and answering questions (send me an ask oooo you want to do it so bad oooooo). i'm active on discord as well as vrchat and happy to give out both of those usernames, but please ask first since i won't accept random friend requests.

[sketchyehm]

Would they ever have a kinda gangbang in the mm!au? As in all the dogs fucking the cats + dog basically, filling their holes, taking turns until everyones spent?

Also would they include collars 👀 and if yes do they have anything written/imprinted on them?

Yea. It's one of the first things they do once they're let out of the basement :3

I never went into much detail with mm!au and mostly just talked about Angst:tm: and Cute/Soft scenarios, but I probably should make a list of the Many Sexual Encounters that happens throughout the AU pfft Like I was reading back through a lot of it and I'm like, oh yeaaaa I did imagine this and this happening....I should probably share with the class one day! The basement was a fun time to have deranged thoughts about :)

The collars are actually something I considered a lot and still wanna tweak if all of the Mafia members have one (cause Rich has a thing for that :^) or if it would just be Sapnap. Cause I imagine George and Dream getting little bells :3 (especially Dream cause he's quiet af pfft) For the first option I think the tags would just have their names and on the back says they belong to Rich! For the second, Sapnap would have chucho(mutt) or something like that on it! Dream and George wouldn't get their bells until later on, but I wanna say they don't wear it all too often cause the guys are way too impatient to properly set up a scene and just wanna get to fucking lmao Rich would be the one to enforce they all wear their collars if he's planning something :3

They have a lot of gangbangs tbf, very rarely is there ever one on one sex from start to finish pffft (I think the only ones I have in mind is a few instances with Sapnap before dnf join and one with Dream and Serpias(and one with george and spreen but its really vague)) But not everyone joins in, some of them are just spectators :3 Some of the guys just have different levels of intensity and they all have their own kinds of pairings that will jump dteam lmao

BUT for this first one I imagine Rich watching, Farfa standing by his right and Spreen sitting on the left armrest. Rich is smug, smiling, not that anyone can see it, watching his boys taking their prizes. He likes to spoil his dogs, of course. Enjoying the noises coming from the pile of bodies, moaning and whines, his dogs taunting and jeering.

He'll ask Spreen if he's going to join, he wants to make sure all his dogs are fulfilled.

"Despues. Tu ya sabes me gustan cuando lloran," Spreen's grin wide, already excited imagining their tear streaked face from overstimulation. But he's patient, enjoying the show for now.

Rich already knows Farfa won't join in today. They both had their fun the other day with a certain ex-Don and knows Farfa is more than satisfied for now.

It's a fun night to say the least. Rich will watch on, observing his puppy and two new cats take his boys over and over. Pleased and satisfied and ready for this new era.

[mynameisnotsoda]

Explaining my entire dsmpsona playlist because I can

P.s. every mention of Soda in this post isn't me, i just dont feel like putting c! In front of it every single time LMAO

Also i dont think i ever posted the ref on tumblr!!?!??! Criminal but putting it here is better methinks

I also put this in my studentbur playlist, which feels fitting for both of them. However for Adam its more metaphorical whereas with Soda its more literal.

I have my own shapeshifter lore that's loitering in my brain that i need to write down eventually BUT the basics are essentially that shapeshifters are "born" from the planet. They CAN come from other shapeshifters but only once and most choose not to have a bio kid.

So basically, Soda literally popped out of the ground one day, was found by Sapnap and then adopted by Bad and Skeppy. Soda was maybe physically 9/10 years old and was so curious about the world and excited to experience life. If any creature could possibly be made of pure love, its them.

Growing up Soda got REALLY attached to Bad, they clung onto him a lot and it was to the point where it was probably unhealthy. Of course Bad noticed, which made him actually set some boundaries despite not really wanting to. Skeppy was able to convince him, though, as when it comes to the kids hes the voice of reason.

So, Bad would start off by telling Soda that he was going to be gone, leading up to him just disappearing for maybe a few hours at a time before eventually coming back. Eventually Soda was able to function without Bad, but that ended up backfiring as they just latched onto Sapnap instead.

With Soda's attachment to their brother, they tagged along with him when he went out fairly often but after being weened off of Bad it became more frequent. Soda and Sapnap were practically attached at the hip, regardless of Sapnap's protesting.

With a group of teenagers they were obviously doing some reckless, stupid shit and Soda was just along for the ride! At first Dream and George hated Soda—they were just Sapnap's annoying younger sibling—but eventually they got used to Soda being around. Especially since they may have persuaded Soda to use their shapeshifting for nefarious purposes.

At first everyone found Soda adorable, their cheery optimism, endless energy and amusing naivety was a part of their charm. But then it became...obnoxious.

Sapnap always had a short temper, he tried his best to handle it, but sometimes he'd just snap at Soda when they became too much of a handful. He was always quick to apologize but it affected Soda deeply.

Soda very much struggled with any sort of negative emotions, when they felt it—it hit them hard. One day, it was enough to send them spiraling, having a panic attack alone in their room. This was also the first time memories of their past lives resurfaced. At first it was rather intriguing, though a jumpscare, but then it just got worse.

It seemed like Soda's lives were always filled with turmoil and a constant feeling of dread. The stronger their emotions became the more fragments of memories would appear. Soda didn't tell anyone about this.

Skipping much further ahead, Soda obviously sided with the Dteam during the revolution. They were family, in Soda's eyes at least. Which made it incredibly easy for Dream to use that to his advantage. He used them in every way that he could to win the war, even going as far as to try and make Soda resent Tommy and Tubbo. Soda was a spy, mostly, turning into a cat to effortlessly infiltrate the enemy. They heard and saw everything, but part of them felt bad for it, so they never told Dream everything. He noticed.

The horrors of being a child soldier.

Dream's obsession with power and control was never obvious, not to his friends and certainly not to Soda. They truly believed he had good intentions despite going to war with Wilbur. Then again, Soda doesn't understand what war really is. But the pressure to keep up with Dream's demands and avaid his increasing irritably became exhausting and overwhelming. Yet Soda believed it was their fault.

Tubbo and Tommy weren't safe from the horrors either, they had that much in common with Soda. The three of them went through hell, basically.

Dream.

Aaaand tumblr wont let me add more songs so im cutting this into parts through reblogs. I'll probably continue this later (bc its almost 2am pFF) and might post the second part before i go to sleep like im doing now :P

I am cringe but I am free

[fxingdead]

I just wanted to say thank you for the well spoken words on the Caiti situation, as a victim myself in almost the exact same way minus the alcohol, the rhetoric going around on this situation is so incredibly harmful.

There are so many obvious logical fallacies that will now just be used on other victims after this in the impact zone of the internet involved.

People saying that if it was actually bad, then someone in the room would have put a stop to it, when bystander effect, normalized bad practices, and alcohol exists.

People saying that since George didn’t do it purposefully without consent means it isn’t SA.

People saying that if it was serious she would have gotten the justice system involved when most cases aren’t going to be prosecutable in a court of law with minimal proof, and in general often damage the victims more without an outcome that helps anyone, and is often morally objectionable due to the inhumane aspects of prison and US punishment without good rehabilitation.

People saying that she’s either too much or too little traumatized for the experience to be valid, when the incident being morally wrong doesn’t require more or less of an impact.

People saying that people supporting Caiti are saying it’s exactly the same as Shelby’s situation and because it’s not, it’s less valid, when although abuse and SA can have different scales of harm caused, doesn’t mean that SA doesn’t deserve condemnation. Weaponizing someone’s lengthy painful experience to say that we shouldn’t treat another’s seriously is awful. Her story is exactly what Shelby meant to inspire sharing, because this stuff happens in all shapes and forms.

People saying that being emotional or not describing every part in excruciating detail when coming forward for the first time is manipulative and proves bad character or smth.

People saying that because a perpetrator is drunk both sides were equally as wrong and no one can be held accountable.

People saying that cuddling, flirting, being friendly before or after, freezing, not immediately leaving, not saying no, is consent.

People saying that this must be for clout or money because subs are turned on.

People saying that George’s response was a good apology when he said that because the act wasn’t extreme for him he didn’t think much of it, and focusing on many details not actually related to the incident or on other general hatred for dteam to imply bias against them, and generally implied that he was sorry that she felt uncomfortable rather than for what he did. And accepting the apology for Caiti.

People saying that to come forward (especially while not even naming the person) was only to ruin their life, and that that’s the only thing you can get out of coming forward publicly instead of support, peace of mind from not keeping something inside so long, and awareness so other people could come forward etc.

People saying that it was wrong to not handle this privately when that isn’t a viable option for a lot of cases particularly with powerful people involved, or when what you are seeking isn’t necessarily anything from who hurt you, like this is just some petty drama.

People saying that only acts considered more “extreme” and even more sexual should be taken seriously.

People saying because she angrily laughed in her recent response and was extremely explicit about what happened to her that she couldn’t have been shy or hesitant in her first response and is lying.

People actively victim blaming and overemphasizing underage drinking because “she isn’t a victim” when this exact rhetoric will and has been used in these cases time and again and shouldn’t be brought up when SA is even in the discussion, and will be used to guilt people who see it when they become a victim.

People saying perceived consent for other acts or the same act previously is consent for another.

People now believing in an incredibly dangerous definition of nonverbal consent because of dream’s statement, when nonverbal consent has been promoted for the protection of people who go nonverbal, it has to be as clear and exact as verbal consent, either as predetermined signals with a partner, nods, or moving someone’s hand somewhere, not just interpreting body language of a drunk stranger. The whole point of the consent movement is to have signs that aren’t misinterpretable to avoid hurting your partner or someone. If someone internally does not consent, but these signs prove consent, then what is the point? If I thought the signs I was using with someone I loved or a human I respect as I living being, didn’t actually express their wishes, I’d sure as hell try something else.

People saying that because Caiti expressed these signs that they’re calling nonverbal consent that she was lying to George.

People saying that because of that, this is a false allegation and is damaging victims, and some victims weaponizing their own experience to say that Caiti isn’t a victim and should shut up.

People saying that she just changed her mind, and anyone who isn’t reacting absolutely negatively in the moment who hasn’t consented is just having self guilt and is projecting.

People saying that anything other than enthusiastic consent is consent.

More real actual victims are going to fall into one of these categories of criticism and false logic, with it being much rarer that a ‘perfect’ victim comes along by these standards, and an intricate framework for ignoring them has been developed from this incident. If dteam hadn’t promoted and encouraged all of these fallacies from the start I think Caiti could have gotten a proper response to help her move on and not be so much more damaged, and many people wouldn’t have started to see dteam as so tainted by ugliness. In that way everything they’ve done since Caiti first came forward has done perhaps more long term damage than the act itself.

Because of their bias and falling for these manipulative tactics, this audience would just as easily invalidate me, and that hurts, even as I didn’t get as hurt as Caiti and I actually got validation from the people I told and had the confidence to know it was wrong immediately even though I froze and such, all these years later, this fact somehow hurts.

Sorry for the rant, I just needed this off my chest. Thanks again.

Ofcourse it means the world to mean hearing other peoples story’s and your rant is incredibly well worded. I show my support for victims because I know how hard it is. I was always silent for the longest time but now all I can feel is anger and I want people to understand that is more complex than it actually is and you can’t always go to the authorities. When I was 9 I had my 2nd experience this one being me realizing what sexual harassment actually is. I did go to court and I talked to authorities but in the end “I was lying.” I was 9 and they expected me to give full detail on what had happened when in reality all I wanted was to play with my Barbie’s. I didn’t understand what was actually happening cause I was a child. The justice system is incredibly flawed. Sad part is I still see him when holidays come around. It’s sickening. People constantly jumping to blame the victim makes me irritated. To them no matter what you’ll do you’re never gonna be considered a real victim. The idea of how our society reacts to these topics deeply upsets me. I speak for victims who are always told be silent cause they deserve to be heard. Saying she just wants clout is ridiculous when she has so much more to lose than George does. This why most of my post are on these serious topics because I’m not allowing myself to ever be silenced again. I’m also so sorry that you had to experience something similar, I wish every victim the best healing journey. It’s important to remember you’re not alone and there’s people here who believe you and think your story is valid. No matter how big or small your story is, no matter how big or small the impact it had on you is, your story will forever be valid.

Dreamy delusions is such an interesting au to me especially because it’s really its clearly its own separate world/story right? But a lot of what we know happened was still the ccs and still /dream/ in some way even if a different one. Like cc!dream is very sweet and soft but he also does get aggressive and angry and all of those things and he very clearly knows how to push people’s buttons. So I can only imagine situations where that overlap might come through. Even despite any real lack of fighting ability or skill, if someone tried to hurt someone I loved I’d probably at least attempt to physically protect them even if I got stabbed or something lol and cc!George and cc!sapnap and /especially/ cc!dream would probably do the same.

Obviously they aren’t going to win or really be able to fight back and they don’t know how their lives work there so it’d have to be a pretty perilous situation (not sure how angsty your going for haha) but I can just imagine a situation where cc!dream actually snaps like how we know he definitely can (and knows how to do fictionally based on the roleplaying) and just like absolutely ptsds everyone because they think he’s gone full c!dream or something. Like cc!dream is super empathetic and probably really understands how and why c!snf and the other ended out that way but he also probably wouldn’t be above using that against them if he thought his actual real life family was in danger. (Also then there’s room for cc!snf angst like would that traumatize them?? Probably honestly)

Anyways sorry it’s superrr late here so I’m just spinning this around in my brain because I’m bored haha

Don't be sorry this was a very fun ask!

My thought process in this au is guided by my specific understanding of cc!Dteam, which is probably different from yours or anyone else's.

I know that cc!Dream is a very strategic man, his thought process usually veers into analysis and game theory. I imagine in this au that he quickly realizes the best move for them to survive on the SMP is to befriend or be acquaintances to whoever they meet. He knows that the server are full of casually violent people, and that he and his boys are categorically fucked in the self-defense department. The idea is to disincentivize anyone as much as possible from thinking to hurt them. So for him, friendliness and sociability is a survival tactic and not just his personality.

It's the same logic for why he's so outgoing in the Syndicate; he's incentivizing them to protect him and Sapnap and George.

As for snapping, I think he'd literally only think to do that to be a brief distraction. He knows that his anger will not work to get what he wants because he doesn't have the power to back it, at most it can hold attention. If he's pushed to his brink he'd probably get upset instead.

I think c!Techno would be the only one cc!Dream would be okay with seeing him get angry (as like, venting). He would never be able to intimidate c!Techno after all.

Additionally, I believe, as empathetic as cc!Dream is, he'd prioritize his and friends safety above all else. If he needs to use words to hurt somebody he will do it.

I'm just characterizing him to make the smartest decisions using the limited tools that he got on hand.

Early MCYTblr Interviews: Anonymous

our interviewee today is the anonymous author of the "SBI Crit Post". he's asked to both remain anonymous and not to be sought out; he's been incredibly helpful and polite through this entire interview process, and i would ask you all to leave any residual feelings you may have from that time at the door. If you think you remember who posted it, please keep it to yourself. that said, let's begin!

Q: Before we begin talking about the ‘Crit Post’, I’d love to hear what your experience of MCYTblr was like before it was posted. Do you have any standout memories from this time?

A: Not particularly. There's some things that I guess looking back on nowadays is kind of wild, like how in the groups I was running in, shipping of any kind that wasn't DNF was super frowned upon (as in, I trigger tagged for IRL shipping)…but truthing wasn't really? Or, how back then the lines between 'critblr' and main mcytblr were super fuzzy. I hung out with both groups before the Crit Post to no issue. Oh!!! And this is a wonderful piece of MCYTblr lore that you may not know, but when I posted the Crit Post, I was apart of a MCYT art exchange themed after MCC called MC Creatives. I think it only happened once, and I can't exactly remember who ran it. They were a really nice DNF (? or just DTeam) blogger. I think it's cool to see that even back then the community was pretty tight knit and had overarching community activities like we see today. It's interesting to me that our fandom has missed out on some of the more important parts to being a fandom… not many big bangs, only one or two that I know of. It's very sad, but we are a weird fandom in general, and definitely a Modern Fandom, if you understand what I mean by that LOL. There is one memory that does stick out, completely irrelevant to this interview though. The fake Dreambur meetup. I pulled an all nighter for it. I was shaking. I drew fanart (though never posted it). Everyone was hysterical. And then it was faked and everyone went WHAT.

Q: As you let me know in your dms, you were the user who made the original “SBI Crit Post”. Would you mind giving a quick rundown of what it was exactly, for anyone who may not know?

A: I would, but frankly I barely remember anything about it. It was like… I saw someone being like "weird that we aren't as critical of SBI as we are of DT" and I thought, "Well, I can probably try?" and made shit up. It was nonsense. I can't even remember what I said about Philza. The points against the others were "Tommy is too young to be in this business" "Wilbur queerbaits" and… "Technoblade needs to be less honest about his ADHD he's glorifying it" or something like that. Again, it was nonsense at its best.

Q: What was your reasoning at the time for making the post? Did the overall culture around you play a part in it?

A: Here's the part no one knows: At the time of posting, I was 13 by maybe… one, two, or three weeks. And I'd spent almost the entirety of my time as a 12 year old in a community that was like "we need to be Critical of our Favorite Creators because this is Righteous and the Only Good Way To Engage With MCYT" and I was like "Everyone here is older than me and therefore endlessly smarter than me," and therefore just accepted it. You can see it very clearly in the part that was "critical" of Wilbur Soot. He was queerbaiting for what? Acting like he wanted to kiss men? Dressing nice? Ridiculous! But if we called Dream a queerbaiter (and never GNF, because everyone was convinced he was gay), then I thought surely Wilbur Soot could also be a queerbaiter! This made total sense to baby 13 year old me. It's not fair to really call that indoctrination: it's not like I was falling down an alt-right pipeline or anything. I was just a stupid kid with too much internet access who liked minecraft and knew nothing about like Dan & Phil or Septiplier (kind of thing that would make me suspicious of this activity--especially truthing). I thought I was fufilling some honor by saying "and yes, my favorite minecraft boys aren't without fault either!" The people that stayed friends with me after that… some of them were my closest normal non-Critblr friends, who refused to abandon me (shout out to you guys you know who you are), and the rest were the people in Critblr who were… okay with my behavior.

Q: I understand that the backlash to the post was very intense– what was it like from your perspective? Did it have any affect on you?

A: Lots. Lots and lots and lots. I lost a bunch of my close friends who weren't okay with what I'd said or how I'd doubled down, and it really messed with me as a kid in the middle of quarantine. There were times where I genuinely considered hurting myself irreperably as either a way to "apologize for what I had done" or just a way to stop worrying that everyone I knew was going to block me one day. Those feelings lasted for a long time, I still struggle with them to this day, over three years later (? I think). And I was kind of lead to believe that was an okay response. I recieved asks the night that it all went down where I was told I should hurt myself. Of course my own behavior wasn't cool, but neither was that. I know there was a post out there by a popular (at the time?) Technoblade blogger that detailed the faults in that post, but I never read it. All I knew about it was that people saw it, and harassed me because they saw it, and that the OP of that post hated me. It got to the point that seeing that blogger's URL caused me to have panic attacks, a ridiculous thing because that blogger as far as I know never actually did anything wrong. I don't know. Every once in awhile, someone in the server I'm in (hi some of you are definitely reading this :3 i love you guys) will bring up the post in passing and I'll have to mute the channel for 24 hours because I'm scared. Or even when we're discussing normal drama, if something feels too close to the Crit Post, or like it might come up, I'll get shaky and nauseous and have to mute the channel for 24 hours. It's weird, the shit being told to kill yourself because you did something dumb as a 13 year old can do to you.

Q: As a follow-up: What, if anything, do you wish had happened instead?

A: I don't know really. I guess the obvious answer is "I didn't make the post" or "I didn't double down", but I think the real answer has to be that I wish the community I was in hadn't taught me that what I was doing was an okay move.

Q: Do you have anything else to add about the Crit Post, MCYTblr, or the community as a whole?

A: Not really. I "retired" from MCYTBlr in I think 2022, but kept a passing interest in it for a long time, and I'm still active in a discord (hi again) comprised entirely of fans and retired fans. I loved MCYT, and in some ways, I still do. When I'm sad, I put on old Technoblade videos. When I'm really sad, I put on old Purpled videos. These things are my comforts, things that I haven't ever been able to give up. And that's good! Even if I don't talk about MCYT anymore, I'm glad it's there for me.

recovering from parasocialism, the ideal of a faceless man, and a heaping tablespoon of comphet within lesbianism

my name is tender, and i'm a multishipper who writes self-indulgence. as of december 31st i will have been posting fic for dteam-adjacent for three years with very few breaks, and a lot has happened in that time. i've been harassed and cancelled multiple times, chased into priv twitter, and now my last remaining public account is starting to get swarmed over something recent that i believe is a pretty simple misunderstanding that i would like to clear up. i've been alluding to it vaguely and it's partially my fault because my word choice implied things about the timeline that lead people to draw negative conclusions about me. but we're gonna fix that now.

dream is my least favourite member of dtk, but in the beginning he was my #1 favourite. i went corpse -> dream -> dnf -> george -> knf for my favourite ccs and i feel like it's pretty normal for stuff like that to switch around, but the way dream and i were previously attached and the way that attachment broke was pretty interesting but i also don't think it was that unfathomable. and firstly, for people who won't extend this post: it had nothing to do with the drituation. i say 'about a year ago / over a year ago' and people's minds go to the drituation / drexit but it wasn't that for me that broke my parasocialism to dream, it was the face reveal itself.

i am a lesbian and i've been a lesbian for a long time. i also love mlm content as evidenced by the fic i read and write and that's also always been an aspect of my life to the point where in my formative years i identified as an mlm trans man because i didn't want to get called a fujoshi. but i don't like men and i know that now. however, i have a nasty, nasty case of comphet. unattainable men to me are a safe and comfortable way to explore attachment to men because in my life i've never really had a positive experience of being friends with or dating a man. early dtk was like a pipedream to me and i think that's why i got so deep into it. discord podcasts and alt streams felt like private calls with friends and they were men in a distant and safe way so i was excited to feel apart of that (partially due to my own genderfuckery and gender envy but that's not what this about).

dream especially. it was dangerously easy to get into dream in 2020/2021 because he was so equally parasocial it fed into a relationship that felt like equivalent exchange and i got deep in it. self-ship daydreams and fantasies i turned into fic and basically dating this idealized faceless man in my head for a year and a half or some shit because he made me feel so safe and comfortable the way he makes a lot of people feel.

but i was scared of the face reveal always. when it comes to me developping comphet attachment i usually am introduced to the man as himself, and determine whether i like him or not and then either cling or drop. like george was genetically engineered in a lab for me to fixate on, same with karl, but dream in his faceless and parasocial era was another fucking level. and i fucking dreaded the face reveal because i knew the second i saw his face the magic would break and i would realize he's a man and that would make me uncomfortable.

dream has said before that 'dream' the persona can be gender neutral, any gender, anyone, and i really believe that. faceless dream was this magical and perfect person who i really loved deeply and found so much comfort in. and with the other male ccs it was easy to remind myself 'be careful, these are men', but dream didn't feel like a man, he felt like a soft voice who was there for me and a character i enjoyed exploring in fic.

the way i got into this fandom was also different, i was never in it for the content. i wasn't really watching streams or vods, i got into it via a heat waves tiktok, binged fic, and lived off of clips, youtube videos, highlight reals, and fan content. that's just how i approach most fandom spaces. hell, when i was into voltron i watched the first 3 seasons, got bored, and read a shitton of klance fic with my scraps of lore and was perfectly content. i have never indulged in fandom including rpf fandom for the people creating the source, i love the fan content and the easy to digest stuff. i don't really watch movies or tv shows, i read books or write stories or watch longer youtube videos.

so we're building up to the face reveal. everyone's so hyped and i'm excited too but i'm also bracing myself because i know my heart's gonna break and it's out of everyone's control and i just didn't talk about it because it was weird and might kill the vibe. the face reveal happened. i saw him. i processed him in my head as 'this man is dream', and my heart broke a bit.

dream has always been handsome, he's still kind and smart and the least funny of his friends. nothing about him changed besides my perception of him. but that's the point i'm trying to make with this: parasocial relationships can snap like a twig in a very one-sided way. but in this case it was a bit equal again just like our dynamic before. because as i was recovering from the face reveal and meetup vlog and sad about this 'break up' i was going through that was so stupid in my head (i literally looped a taylor swift song about it it was a break up.) the drituation hit and i was really turned around. my deep love for dream was gone already, i just had lingering fondness and empathy, and then the allegations scared me really badly. i absorbed the evidence and believed dream was likely innocent but i decided that between my loss of parasocial attachment and this new grey-area of morality i was just going to distance myself. not to mention by this time it was late 2022 and i had been harrassed and cancelled by dream stans more times than i can remember so i was pretty comfortable moving away from dream.

then he made himself smaller, and wasn't really around much. it was easy to get over a lot of the parasocial feelings because he didn't really give it back anymore, so then the interest just wasn't there. and there was so much constant negativity i just didn't want to be involved. but even after all of this and wasn't really into him as a content creator i have never stopped having empathy for him. dream is a human being and i think both stans and antis forget that because i've always been displeased with what i've seen on both sides and aligned myself with neutrality. but the internet doesn't really seem to allow for that, so antis think i'm a stan and stans think i'm an anti. and most people just hate me in general. do you see why it's hard for me to be here? and it's not anything dream has done so i don't hold anything against him. we just broke up. i've never said 'i hate dream' or even really 'i don't like dream' i just don't really care about his content anymore and that's, like, super normal.

but why do i write about him? well, as i prefaced this and as is in my pinned post, i don't write fanfiction the way other people do. i write self-indulgence that's chock full of projection and weird niche stuff and heavy themes. and most people don't like my fic, but the readers i have love it and give me a lot of positive feedback, so with my passion for the hobby of writing, my familiarity with the dnkn dynamics i have established in my 'cinematic universe', and positive feedback for creating only art i want to create instead of clinging to realism and making sure no one's feelings are hurt, i just make art that makes me happy. sure, if i need a bad guy it's been dream a lot, but it's also been george and karl. my comment about doing him dirty in fic was fucking. starting hush hush with a dnf break up and having knf fuck in his bed in a college au. it was so not that serious and it bothers me people assumed i was writing harmful content to take out some weird hateboner on a guy i used to love. that's not me, dude, i'm 26 years old. if i don't like someone it's easy for me to drop them. when supermega was outted as shittheads i dropped them after being a fan for years, it is a perfectly viable option for me and i didn't deem it necessary for this case.

in the end, i'm not exactly sure why people are so angry dream's my #4. he's still there, just lower on the tier list. i didn't get shit when i actively disliked sapnap in the early days, but now that i'm neutral on dream it's the end of the world? and to resolve this i'm getting harassed more by dream stans insulting my new #1? in what world would that get me to do what u want, be it liking dream or disliking karl, or not longer writing. i'll reiterate again: i am 26 and write self-indulgence for myself and my readers. i've done this for a long time and i'd really like to continue if that's okay. if you think i'm dragging dream's character through the mud and beating him with a baseball bat in my fic i really encourage you to look at the fic i've written about dream. even when i lost interest in him my fondness and empathy has always been there. i've written a lot of really lovely things about dream recently, and even when i put him through hardships it was just a story, there was no ill intent towards the real person.

and most of all: dream doesn't care how i feel about him, why do you?

Hi Moku!

What does one do after taking a fat nap and waking up disoriented? They scroll your blog of course and keep up with the daily news! (And random absolutely serious discussions of underwear 😭).

I saw some mention of CCs moving weirdly again about the Dteam, and teaming with Sapnap for an event, and I’d just like to add my thoughts on the matter.

I feel like this is a common occurrence in the four years I’ve been a fan and part of this fandom. The process literally goes like this:

someone from Dteam (usually dream) gets called out for something, Twitter freaks out and reacts before the “cancelled” party can respond/apologize, upcoming projects are pushed back months/years depending on severity of “cancelation”, unrelated CCs speak out against “cancelled” party (usually Dream), project release is finally approaching and hype is being created, fans and CCs alike suddenly like Dteam again. And then it gets rinsed and repeated till it’s sucked dry.

Only difference in this case was it was George being called out and Dream sticking by his boy, rather than Dream being called out and Sapnap defending him. And it just becomes increasingly more obvious how performative all these CCs and their fans are, the more this cycle rears its big, ugly head.

I think the difference in this situation as opposed to others is that Dteams own friends (if you can even call them that) spoke out against George, and that showed their fans that George is absolutely despicable and irredeemable, making Dream also the same by proxy.

And with this knowledge I raise this question. Why was this situation the one that did it for them? Dream has been accused of everything under the sun (even lost a year of his life trying to prove himself innocent over false allegation), and they all stuck by him-very loudly and proudly, might I add. Why then, do these people choose now to revoke their support and end friendships? Especially without first talking to the accused party? Their friend?

Seeing people associating with Sapnap, the same people who were quick to (very loudly) denounce George leaves a sour taste in my mouth. And the people expecting Dream to just drop George irritates the hell out of me, too. Why is it so hard to remember that these three men are a packaged deal, regardless of how much solo content is produced?

Whilst dream was going through some of the hardest shit in his life, those two stuck by him. When Sapnap was getting called out for joining Kick, they stuck by him. And even now, Sapnap and Dream both released statements saying George is their friend, he made a mistake, and to support Caiti. Reading comprehension must be poor here cause nowhere in either of their statements did they say they’d stop being friends with George. Thats their fucking bro, and they will support him, as he’s done with them.

Everyday I’m further surprised why Twitter clout means so much to people, when that’s not where peoples’ fanbases are. The mob they are constantly trying to appease will turn its back on them the second they get called out. Y’all were quick and loud with your responses (George hadn’t even released anything yet), and now that dreams teasing his project release, yall want in on the hype from that? Sure, but give a public apology to George for the way you jumped to conclusions and basically threw away a friendship. And give him a private one, as well that you actually mean what you say (though we don’t need to know about that one).

“Watch how ccs move the next couple of days” “anyone who does something like that is no friend of mine” (not verbatim) ‘my truth about dream’ “keeping him at arms length”- that’s a whole lot of words to say you’re weak-willed people who don’t support their friends in time of need but actually care more about your image than being a good friend, and I’d hate to have friends like that. I hope if they do try to come back now, they aren’t welcomed back by Dteam. We all know Dream don’t care how people treat him, but he don’t play when it comes George (and Sapnap, but George is the one who was in the hot seat recently). I hope he “keeps them at arms length” for how they responded to the situation, and basically threw away multiple friendships.

Yall don’t get to act the way you do, and then try to reap the benefits of someone else’s hard work and success, especially when you’ve publicly ended your friendship with them. We’ve reached the end of that vicious cycle, but I’m hoping this outcome is different; I’m hoping this time there is no welcoming back for these performative CCs, and they can sit there and reflect on why that is. Maybe then they’ll grow a backbone.

Anyway, those are my thoughts on the subject matter. (Don’t know anything in regards to the underwear discussion 😭). I apparently love getting on my soapbox every time I send something, so I thank you for reading it every time.

Have an awesome day, love!

-L :)

Hi L!! Yeah i absolutely agree with pretty much everything you said and I think what made so many CCs jump ship this time was the fact that it was a content creator within the community that spoke out similar to Shelby. However, that does not excuse their poor or extreme reactions to handling the situation.

I do think that the cycle you mentioned is super tiring and I feel like the community needs to do a better job of going "oh you dont fuck with us anymore? okay bye" and not following their actions for months afterwards to hate on them (unless we see hypocritical actions like coming back to hang with our CCs with no prior apology or public support because thats just a bit odd tbh)

I appreciate the soapboxing tbh!! It's always a good read :)
