maybe that duck finally realized that running a minecraft server with a massive fanbase including performative chronical online fans and functioning it as a brand business paying salaries to the employees are never as easy as what he thought and only collecting leasons from following someone shadow footprints will never make you realize how risky it is until you are in their shoes.
#like do i feel bad when he almost had a mental breakdown right in a livestream ? not really but soft of#but at the same time do i feel he doesn't deserve all of those oppression ? no#he made his own bed he legitimately invited himself into this mess which could have prevented in the first place#he was the one cutting the relationship with the rest of his former friends#he was the one hiring all of the mod volunteers he was the one making those “ there is no war in ba sing se ” rules#he was the one functioning this Minecraft server as a business company not a passion project#he was the one building up this fanbase - the oppressed fans willingly doxxing and threatening ccs and other fans#he cannot pull out ' i barely caught up anything ' when it comes to paying salaries to other mods#because he made the damn principles applied to every mods how tf he can forget ?#not to mention he (used to) study laws ?? commercial laws ????#and when he fucking cried and talking about wilbur and sobbed about he was no longer in the server#yet none of supporting statements toward to shelby were made like okay bro im sure being a blind-eyed man must be tough for you last year#like what he even expected ? this is what happened if you silenced your voices and permitted your fucking fandom swept all of its issues#either he need to change or the damn server will go down to the pit hole#/neg

It think my main problem with some Izzy fans is they straight up lie or have extreme cognitive dissonance for stuff. “Izzy is more popular than ed/stede” no you were just around people who like is he more than them? I promise you the average person fandom or not does not like him more than the main characters. Also, just because he’s popular in the fandom doesn’t mean he’s a better character. You how many fandom I’ve been where they sent her around the white male character more than any other character? So often it’s a dime a dozen. He talks about how crazy Ed is before we even meet the character and when we meet him, he’s just a little suicidal at very least at that point. honestly even if he did survive, it would not make sense for him to be the captain of the ship. It’s canon that he’s not good at running anything and only really good at violence. he’s an interesting character meant to represent toxic masculinity at least in season one and how breakable and fragile it is. Honestly, him and Zuko have a lot in common when it comes to fandoms. These characters are both flawed and I’ve done bad things, but for some reason, some fans wanna make them look perfect like they’ve done nothing wrong and excuse everything that comes with the cost of completely miss characterizing everyone else around them. Man called the British, which are basically the cop because he didn’t get what he wants and view himself as knowing Ed more than himself which is messed up, bro. and the story portrays this as bad like it should be. Also, why are all the tags that were created to criticize Izzy taking over by Izzy fans like you asked for a specific tag and then take it over and then get upset when people use it. I also have seen fans on Twitter called themselves Ofmd hater and then spend all their time talking about the show. It’s OK to move on. It is not the Izzy show and never was. I have to rewash the show to remember Izzy‘s and actually interesting character because his fans have changed him so much that I can’t stand him if I don’t watch the show. There is a reason why people were being rude against the phantom for some stupid reason reasons or only a small group of people they named them and that weird little list they had. Now I don’t think any of the Izzy fan should be attacked or doxxed because that’s just weird and wrong. That doesn’t mean you can’t criticize them and how weird they are about this white man. I think it’s time for some of you who just have so much hatred of everything else in the TV show. Make an OC That’s like 2 inches away from that character and leave you’ll be much happier. Another problem I have is how some people treat David he’s not a perfect man nor perfect writer, but to go out of your way to say you understand the story infinitely more than him is crazy. He is shown multiple times he loves the character. This is just how he wanted to take him in the story not out of malice,, not out of homophobia not of hatred for disabled people, but because that’s how his story was always going to end he just got to die slightly less full of hate and may be a little happy. Izzy and ed had no chance of ending up together. The story basically states that pretty early that it was one-sided and not entirely healthy on either side. Also celebrating the show knocking a third season and people losing their jobs even though you were probably going to see Izzy again in some form is crazy.  I promise you your hate did nothing or brothers was just being a cheap ass and canceled other diverse shows so it definitely wasn’t because of you. Either way, I guess I win in the end. I still love the show and not full of anger at least about this. I got a lot of other problems lol. This post is probably way too long about something that doesn’t really matter too much but it feels good to get it out especially with finals coming around. If you read this entire thing and hate me well thanks for reading. I guess. Hope you have a nice day and I mean that genuinely life‘s kind of sucks right now for everyone lol.
#our flag means death#izzy critical#thanks to comment I want to reiterate I do like Izzy but he is a grown man not a wet cat and made a lot of really bad mistakes

That leak wasn't worth it, and now pokemon fans have a new unfunny sex joke that's 100 times worse than the vaporeon one, and employees literally got doxxed, but people don't seem to care about that.
The internet sucks and people only make it worse.
Tell me, I deal with Hinata haters and Naruto fandom who are just usually stupid, like bro Naruto discourse is straight hot garbage.
Edit: and now that I understand Sasuke because I frow up. Aueuaisvwuaiseg, his haters suck.
And Naruto discourse is still hot garbage
Now I am scared at what people would do to Pokemon like Glaceon, since it looks pretty by design I hate what degeneracy would come out of it.
Look at how pretty it is!
#SaveMyBois
And damn, I know Internet people are horrendous but common, they literally dox people for things that are just allegations and not true.
I remember a roblox dude was accused of being a pedo with zero proof and people doxxed him and started harassing him daily and he almost killed himself (worst he had a history with suicide prior to this and mental health issues).
And now they do this to fucking underpaid game employees?! Wtf dude that's gross ugh, like please go get a life.

Bro dovealove is a whole case study. Mental asylum future patient.
Bestie how you gonna get mad that you were fired because of your misconduct, become a solo vtuber and beg that man who fired you for you own actions to come to your debut after he said no 3 TIMES, then think "hmmmm this person want me to leave them alone... Let's not do that", make a couple group chat to manipulate his close friends into hating him, DOXXING HIM TWICE, make jokes at his expense, have the man fear for his LIFE AND FAMILY, continue you downplay the situation and hating on him for the consequences of your own actions only to clap back with
And I mfing kid you not, "I'm really apologetic for my past actions"
GIRL YOU HAD A MAN FEARING FOR HIS SAFETY TWICE AND ALL YOU GOTTA SAY IS I'M SORRY? WHAT-
Bro. No. Nooooooo. nononono.
Imagine being either so downbad for a man or so petty that you doxx him, turn his friend group against him and put him in a continually state of fear for 2 years because you were fired for your own actions.
And all you have to say is "I'm sorry"
Bro I'm sorry to your future therapist, you need that check out. I don't care about the "oh but this" you put this man into a stated inwhich both HIMSELF and HIS FAMILY were not safe.
Dovealove does not deserve a platform.

my headcanons of Eddie Gluskin if he had a twitter :
he'd repost those RETVRN incel trad memes where its like a woman doing house chores & man doing job stuff
would get into arguments with a woman and subscribe to her onlyfans at the same time (gets mad when blocked)
tries to be professional and a know-it-all but also his entire likes tab is porn (he doesnt know it shows publicly)
calls someone a whore & drops a bible verse in the same thread arguing with them
idk if he'd be delighted with minion memes or viscerally hate them
USES DISNEY REACTION GIFS WITH NO SHAME , USES A CRYING STITCH GIF AT A DODO VIDEO OF A DOG DYING
If twitter bans his account mid argument he'd flip the fuck out and make 3 gmails & alts at the same hour
100% posts creepy comments under peoples post and gets upset if it gets hidden
flirts so much you'd think hes a bot but no he's just sending random women his number (does he care if they're married or not is completely dependant on his mood)
uses the nice guy card whenever shit starts going south
he gets doxxed he goes like "that's not me" (lies, is scared)
either that or he lashes out and start sending them death threats who knows
menace with the twitter Voice Note feature
not even a mutual KYS no hes going to write out his whole murder fantasy in a person's DMs and blocks them before they could respond
gets IP banned on twitter like, weekly, he just figures out VPN apps and finds a way to harrass people constantly
media tab is his breakfast and someones mutilated genitals, bi-weekly photo updates maybe
im not saying he would complain about hairloss but he would complain about hairloss
"i got declined by the pharmacist for asthma medication, fucking bitch *insert something mysogonistic*"
thinks bitcoin is stupid and not a real "manly job" so he dogs on them pretty horribly
thinks tech jobs are for NERDS and says it outloud whenever them NFT bros are commenting under his shit attacking him for calling them nerds
Cracked phone screen with blood in the cracks (he tried to clean it with soapy water on a towel but it just ruined the lcd now its forever stained yellow) ((free bluescreen eye protector mode ?)) (((also has to violently tap the home button because its already broken & that part of the screen died))) ((((has an odd smell))))
he wishes he'd have glasses for the phone screen but all he does is squint
would post dress updates though <3 maybe retweets sewing patterns and videos of old women knitting and go "my grandmother used to do that pattern, ❤️ Wow."
goes back to shitting on women
*posts black coffee with 2 fruitflies in it* "A Good Way To Start A Morning ☕"
posts half eaten food and the dirty plate and would be like "Delicious food today 😋 i almost forgot to pots." -- deletes & reposts because of the typo. PEOPLE CANNOT THINK HE'S WEAK.
His vest would 100% be posted on those gimmick accounts and gets picked on for it being crusty & grody 😔
DMs like multiple women at the same time and either gets immediately blocked or ghosted after a face reveal
he Has cried because of twitter comments before, never again......
has twitter warning threads made of him and has tried to draw a stupid fucking wojack on paper with pencil & pen because he doesnt know how to edit photos but he still wants to own the haters
posts gore to own the haters as well and then got mass reported to death when people found 0 similar images of the gore he posted
'A Thread On @/Eddie287367927 TW: Gore, Mutilation, Harassment, Transphobia, Misogyny'
probably had a youtube documentary made about his twitter acc and all the drama he got himself into (either by accident or for fun)
ok this idea kinda came up to me after i saw a trad meme come up on my tl and i just HAD to dump this all out somewhere
#eddie gluskin#outlast whistleblower#outlast#i love doing everything except study for exams#outlast fandom#i actually got an exam going on rn & idgaf

Nope, he just said two words and let Sylvie continue to talk to Mobius like that
HES DOING THE THING WITH HIS ARM
I hate dox so much
Wait, Loki is defending Mobius?
Love how Loki is talking in this scene. I’m not paying attention, it’s just his voice.
He’s talking about Thor! He sounds sad.
Love the scene, not paying attention to what they’re talking about but how the environment is being used.
Pie=therapy. You don’t need to eat it, but anywhere there’s pie there’s a therapy session.
Say it

Bro was really interested in that machine
You can still hear the blood!!
I HATE MISS MINUTES
Nice, hot chocolate. I now want hot chocolate
He’s so nice letting the other guy drink hot chocolate
NOOO, THE HOT COCOA
Wtf man
Loki and Sylvie are back! Wait, Sylvie is back…
Can we not bring back the box up? Please
Why is it actually so pretty
Wait, elevator, camera, NO

they just want to use magic again
Like that wasn’t threatening
That was slightly creepy
YES DO IT!

Bro was immediately spaghettified

First of all you are 28 nah you too grown to be acting like this…giving jobless!! Why you acting like im the one thats been harrassing,bullying and doxxing noah….okayyy then?? Also ‘despite it being 7 months later’ as if we were supposed to brush him supporting genocide under the rug and ohhh just forget about it. And why you using my post and other peoples comments on my post acting like its me and all them as a whole saying that we would do a blockout????? And girl…nobodys fucking stalking him mate we found a PUBLIC ACCOUNT ON SOCIAL MEDIA spoiler alertttt that is how social media works if you make a public account! Nah you overdramatic asf plsplspls get a life instead of coming for teenagers on the internet😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭???
ALSOOO why u linking byler amd st back to my post that was not even about byler or st?
‘I was wrong. I held out hope, but I think I'm officially done. This is your fandom now.’ nahhh if you aint like it that much then leave the fandom simple as?
like i think #his grown ass wont care that some teenager said he was embarrassing??😭😭😭
Like he aint need your 28 year old self to go on tumblr and call me a bully which sorry idc if you call me that like u dont know me?💀and call me antisemitic which i am not like bro clearly didnt even mention anythinggg about jewish people in the post!!!
Noah knows what he did and it shouldn’t just be forgotten he can try to excuse himself but if he willingly speaks in support of genocide he cant then act surprised when people aren’t going to support him????
‘tw abuse’ and its my ass saying hes being embarssing gulppp
Anyway…🥰
dont come for me noah stans bc i womt respond
Trigger Warning 🚨 Abuse
Peep the most annoying, disgusting, vitriolic little shits in the history of fandomkind.
Continuing their harassment, bullying, and doxxing of Noah Schnapp despite it being 7 months later, him trying to explain himself on multiple occasions to no avail, them supposedly hating him, and oh hey- aren't they supposed to be doing their little Blockout 2024?? All because he made a tiny bts account to update the people who don't hate him and they found it because they stalk him to actively make his life a living hell. There should be no doubt left in any of you: These people's end goal is for Noah to kill himself.
I'm so sick of sugar-coating this. You aren't his fan anymore? Fine. You hate him? Fine. But this is abuse.
You know what's funny? I joined this fandom in May 2022 because I naively believed that Byler was the small space of ST that was filled with actual smart, kind, creative, compassionate people who represented the best and most open-minded parts of the show.
I was wrong. I held out hope, but I think I'm officially done. This is your fandom now.
Once again, when you perpetuate hatred towards a 19 year old homosexual Jew without a single ounce of compassion or attempt to understand, these are the likes of which you stand amongst. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Posted without commentary:
On Sept. 17, 2021, my long-distance girlfriend, Lauren, paid a surprise visit to me while a friend filmed my reaction. Three days later, she set the 19-second clip to a hokey Ellie Goulding song and posted it to roughly 200 TikTok followers. The first commenters—Lauren’s close friends—had positive things to say. But soon strangers—among whom the video was less well received—began commenting, criticizing my reaction time or my being seated on a couch next to friends who happened to be of the opposite sex. “Girl he ain’t loyal.” “Red flag! He didn’t get up off the couch and jump up and down in excitement.” “Bro if my man was on a couch full of girls IM WALKING BACK OUT THE DOOR.”
As comments accusing me of infidelity rolled in, the video quickly became the topic of fierce online debate, à la “The Dress.” I, an ordinary college sophomore, became TikTok’s latest meme: Couch Guy. TikTok users made parody videos, American Eagle advertised a no-effort Couch Guy Halloween costume, and Rolling Stone, E! Online, The Daily Show, and The View all covered the phenomenon. On TikTok, Lauren’s video and the hashtag #CouchGuy, respectively, have received more than 64 million and 1 billion views.
While the Couch Guy meme was lighthearted on its surface, it turned menacing as TikTok users obsessively invaded the lives of Lauren, our friends, and me—people with no previous desire for internet fame, let alone infamy. Would-be sleuths conducted what Trevor Noah jokingly called “the most intense forensic investigation since the Kennedy assassination.” During my tenure as Couch Guy, I was the subject of frame-by-frame body language analyses, armchair diagnoses of psychopathy, comparisons to convicted murderers, and general discussions about my “bad vibes.”
At times, the investigation even transcended the digital world—for instance, when a resident in my apartment building posted a TikTok video, which accumulated 2.3 million views, of himself slipping a note under my door to request an interview. (I did not respond.) One viewer gleefully commented, “Even if this guy turned off his phone, he can’t escape the couch guy notifications,” a fact that the 37,600 users who liked it presumably celebrated too. Under another video, in which hall mates of mine promised to confront Couch Guy once they reached 1 million likes (they didn’t), a comment suggested that they “secretly see who’s coming and going from his place”—and received 17,800 approving likes. The New York Post reported on, and perhaps encouraged, such invasions of my privacy. In an article about the “frenzy … frantically trying to determine the identity” of the “mystery man” behind the meme, the Post asked, “Will the real ‘couch guy’ please stand up?” Meanwhile, as internet sleuths took to public online forums to sniff out my name, birthdate, and place of residence, the threat of doxxing loomed over my head.
Exacerbating these invasions of my privacy was the tabloid-style media coverage that I received. Take, for example, one online magazine article that solicited insights from a “body language expert” who concluded that my accusers “might be onto something,” since the “angle of [my] knees signals disinterest” and my “hands hint that [I’m] defensive.” This tabloid body language analysis—something typically reserved for Kardashians, the British royal family, and other A-listers—made me, a private citizen who had previously enjoyed his minimal internet presence, an unwilling recipient of the celebrity treatment.
Mercifully, my memedom has died down—interest in the Google search term “Couch Guy” peaked on Oct. 5—and I have come to tolerate looks of vague recognition and occasional selfie requests from strangers in public. And my digital scarlet letter has not carried much weight offline, given that Lauren and the other co-stars of the now-infamous video know my true character. Therefore, my anxiety rests only in the prospect that the invasive TikTok sleuthing I experienced was not an isolated instance, but rather—as tech writer Ryan Broderick has suggested—the latest manifestation of a large-scale sleuthing culture.
The sleuthing trend sweeping TikTok ramped up following the disappearance of the late Gabby Petito. As armchair TikTok sleuths flexed their investigative muscles, the app’s algorithm boosted content theorizing about what happened to Petito. Madison Kircher of Slate’s ICYMI podcast noted how her “For You page just decided I simply needed to see” TikTok users’ Gabby Petito videos “over and over again.” It appears that a similar phenomenon occurred with my lower-stakes virality, as I found myself scrolling through countless tweets bemoaning the inescapability of “Couch Guy TikTok.” One user despairingly reported seeing “five tik toks back to back on my [For You page] about couch guy.” (I assure you, though, that nobody despised Couch Guy’s omnipresence more than myself.)
The most recent target of the app’s emerging investigative spirit was Sabrina Prater, a 34-year-old contractor and trans woman, who went viral in November after posting a video of herself dancing in a basement midrenovation. The video’s virality began with parody videos, but quickly veered into the realm of conspiracy theory due to (you guessed it) the video’s apparent “bad vibes”—at which point I got a dreadful sense of déjà vu. As Prater’s video climbed to 22 million views and internet sleuths came together to form a r/WhosSabrinaPrater community on Reddit, Prater faced baseless murder accusations, transphobic comparisons to Buffalo Bill from The Silence of the Lambs, and overzealous vigilantes who threatened to go to her neighborhood to investigate further. This incident reveals the harmful potential of TikTok sleuthing. One expert aptly summed up the Prater saga to Rolling Stone: “It was like watching true crime, internet sleuthing, conspiracy theories, and transphobia collide in a car crash.”
Given the apparent tendency of the TikTok algorithm to present viral spectacles to a user base increasingly hungry for content to analyze forensically, there will inevitably be more Couch Guys or Praters in the future. When they appear on your For You page, I implore you to remember that they are people, not mysteries for you to solve. As users focused their collective magnifying glass on Lauren, my friends, and me—comparing their sleuthing to “watching a soap opera and knowing who the bad guy is”—it felt like the entertainment value of the meme began to overshadow our humanity. Stirred to make a TikTok of my own to quell the increasing hate, I posted a video reminding the sleuths that “not everything is true crime”—which commenters resoundingly deemed “gaslighting.” Lauren’s videos requesting that the armchair investigation stop were similarly dismissed as more evidence of my success as a manipulator, and my friends’ entreaties to respect our privacy, too, fell on deaf ears.
Certainly, noncelebrities have long unwillingly become public figures, and digital pile-ons have existed in some form since the dawn of the digital age—just ask Monica Lewinsky. But on TikTok, algorithmic feedback loops and the nature of the For You page make it easier than ever for regular people to be thrust against their wishes into the limelight. And the extent of our collective power is less obvious online, where pile-ons are delivered, as journalist Jon Ronson put it, “like remotely administered drone strikes.” On the receiving end of the barrage, however, as one finds their reputation challenged, body language hyperanalyzed, and privacy invaded, the severity of our collective power is made much too clear.

PART FIVE (first batch where we decided CWs might be necessary: discussions of non comedic abuse, mentions of grooming, spread of comedic STIs)
val (part 2): previously known solely for being the victim of barbs frequent transphobia, val (they/them) is actually incredibly fucking racist against all non-rock trolls. they were always like this but it was only after they received the internets pity during the barb situation that they allowed themselves to let loose and "stop being so PC all the time". they hate hinterland trolls the most bc they have no native land and are thus inherently immigrants no matter where they currently reside. val goes after the kpop trolls and, after getting called a flop, get doxxed. they now have to go live with their mum (val didnt know their parents divorced bc they never answer their phone when their mum or dad call) who has remarried to trollzart (val knew that trollzart married a random rock troll but didnt know it was ms thundershock (her ex husband took her last name) bc they never call their parents and they threw out the wedding invite bc they assume all letters are junk mail)
cliva: after a solid month of clay mooching off branch, he and viva get back together with a long night of very freaky sex. which viva records (without his knowledge) for blackmail in case he ever tries to cross her again. which, yknow, we obviously dont CONDONE revenge porn, but he kinda brought it on himself. she keeps it on display as a video tape (not that she doesnt have the video file on the cloud. you think shes a fucking luddite?) in a glass case in their mansion and its clays responsibility to come up with an excuse for why they still have a VHS in 2024 whenever they have visitors. viva keeps him on a tight leash (very literally, if you watch the video). while initially a level of comedic toxicity expected from the precedent fleek set, it quickly grew into a genuine fucked up abusive relationship and, i cant believe im saying this, clay is the victim. hes not allowed to make eye contact with non-related trolls or use his credit cards without permission (he has a set amount of cash he can use per week. floyd and jd think its hilarious hes a grown man with an allowance. bruce and branch think its horrifying hes a grown man with an allowance). if and when she releases the video she plans to tell people that he paid her to do whatever it is they did in the tape (which changes on every description. so far we know there was a rubber chicken, a penny farthing, and a pillow case full of strawberry jam). clay cant ask bruce for help bc hes still mad at him for almost ruining his marriage (brandy immediately forgave bruce once she found out it was clay and theyre currently planning their newest romantic trip) and he cant ask branch bc thats his adorable innocent baby sibling and, even though floyd has experience with sex tape leakage, he cant ask floyd bc hes still floyd, so hes left with no other options. he has to ask jd for help and pretend he doesnt want to rip those dumbass goggles off his head and shove em through his entire digestive system (either way). unfortunately, jd has been in this exact scenario before, and is willing to help
jd: dont worry bro, ive got experience dealing with sticky situations involving a ham sandwich, jump rope and three rolls of toilet paper clay: and the fa- jd: and the fancy silverware set from the 1800s yes
unbeknownst to clay, viva deliberately stopped taking her birth control to use the baby as leverage in any future lawsuit. shes got an egg growing as we speak. she doesnt see the problem in having a baby to get the upper hand in a failing marriage bc thats how poppy was made.
marshtato mary: twitter reply guy meme gimmick account ala kirawontmiss or wokey d pronouns whos known for being a piece of shit and almost universally hated for her stolen overused jokes and reposted memes. shes blatantly fatphobic to random people as a "dunk" and when she goes """"too far"""" she simply deletes the tweet and says nothing. she claims theres multiple people running the account (theres not). people notice shes gone from "generic normie memes" to "grey hair and pronouns" so they go through her following and discover she follows barb.
harper: infamous twitter artist who went to art school and instantly degraded from "interesting art" to "generic horny caricature-esque slop". draws barb like the kingpin from spiderverse. gets into her first controversy when she draws brozone fanart bc she is "so hyped for their newest album!!!". most of the brothers are drawn normally (although floyd might be a bit too... demure. but he tends to go that route for brozone stuff anyway) except bruce who is drawn with a skinny hourglass figure and long eyelashes. bruce usually doesnt care (or know about) fandom drama but floyd thinks he should know about this one, and hes so shocked that hes dealing with this again after living almost 30 years as a man that he logs into @/brobruceofficial (clay never changed the password) and replies "what the hell is this" before hitting back 3 shots of whiskey and doing some thinking. harper says "what, trans guys cant be feminine? 🙄" and bruce says "but im NOT???".
bruce sits up in bed (he has his own separate tiny bed on the nightstand bc otherwise brandy would roll over and crush him in her sleep) bruce: honey im........ im masc, right? brandy: *looks at the barbie doll bed* sure sweetie.
harper finally deletes her account after getting called out for morally reprehensible kink art, and bruce is indignant that that was the final straw and not drawing fetishistic softcore porn of him (floyd and poppy say he'll get used to it). harper later tries to come back to twitter under a different name. she pretends to be a kpop troll. she doesnt speak korean.
clay (part 3): when we last left off, clay, after swallowing his pride, asked jd for help with the sex-tape-abusive-relationship-situation. jd says he should give her cooties and clay threatens to smash the few non-plastic plates jd owns. jd lets clay stay over in rhonda for a few days, and he calls viva himself to tell her that brozone are having a "group lyric writing sesh to prep for our next album. no, uh, not the one releasing in a week, the next one. its called being married to the grind, viva. dont call." after a couple days clay tells jd its been nice not having someone breathing down his neck, judging his every move, telling him what he can and cant do, can and cant wear, can and cant eat. jd says that viva must be a real monster. clay stares him dead in the eyes without saying anything. jd says he has to go get groceries.
delta dawn: very famous for country trolls but not a lot of reach outside, which she is completely fine with, until one day jdtwt find an 18-22 y/o photo of him with a "random unnamed centaur lady" and try to track her down bc they are crazy people. over night deltas spotify monthly listens surpass the estimated population of lonesome flats by a huge margin, and her initial glee that music really is uniting them all is immediately squashed when she checks twitter (her follower count quintupled) and realises that the one night stand she had roughly 18-22 years ago has once again bitten her in the ass. shes instantly reduced to an extension of jd, and do you KNOW how hard it is to make it as a female country musician? its pretty goddamn hard. she "has her people call jds people" and they meet up in an unpopulated area of lonesome flats. delta asks what the hell is going on, and jd laughs and admits his fans can get overzealous sometimes, so delta slaps him and tells him he should feel lucky she didnt kick him somewhere sensitive. she tells him theres one more reason she wanted to see him, that theres someone she wants him to meet, and holly walks in. holly didnt initially understand the situation so the first thing she said was he should really clean up more. jd DID actually understand the situation immediately, and instantly went in for a hug, so holly pepper sprayed him.
holly: is this it? are you selling me to a boyband??? like what i read about???????? delta: what- no. no, sugar. i dont think he could afford you anyway jd: i totally could- delta: hit him again, hon.
turns out that one night stand 18-22 years ago resulted in holly darling. jd is thrilled about being a father. holly does some digging into who jd is and learns very little except lesbians seem to love him (in a hamster sort of way) and she really wishes her estranged father remained estranged. jd and delta dont exactly rekindle their relationship so to speak, but they do become awb (acquaintances with benefits), which is a fancy way of saying "jd isnt allowed to text her but when delta is bored and sexually frustrated she just has to say the word and he comes running". he gives her cooties and she puts him in the hospital
velvet (part 2): crimp gets cancelled for roblox roleplaying with tiny (who she thinks is 14 (he is actually 1)) who took screenshots the second it got uncomfortable and made his own expose video set to a song from a cutesy slice of life anime where he added captions in windows movie maker detailing the allegations. she immediately deleted her account without any fanfare. velvet talks about how she "never liked her anyway" and inadvertently exposes the extent of the workplace abuse. velvets reputation was already in the gutter as it was but now shes chilling with a bunch of sewer rats. the "this might strike some viewers as harsh, but i believe everyone involved in this story should die" meme gets a lot of use that week.
smidge (part 2): the timeline is as such; she is seen with poppy and rumours start about her being her rebound; people find out about milton moss a week later, quickly assume that smidge is (consensually) cucking him; barb gets blackout drunk and calls him a pedophile bc smidge is short bc she wants anyone even halfway related to anyone dating poppy to die; smidge tells her off; smidgetwt 🔛🔝. smidge quickly realises she can make a pretty penny from people who are unhealthily obsessed with #smoppy. she releases hoodies (plain white, with two crudely drawn ms paint stoutberries, one yellow one pink) and fans say that is their stealth coming out. several fans ask if this is queerbaiting and, as they get dogpiled, smidge tweets on priv "hold on i gotta look something up" and 13 minutes later replies "okay yeah that is what im doing" (she is not going to stop).
bridget: this months #ladyglittersparklestwtselfieday happened to coincide with classical trolls having important twitter discussions about anti-classical discrimination (spurred on by val, of course) and classical trolls say something along the lines of "this is why no one likes bztwt, youre always talking over important issues" ignoring how
it wasnt bztwt
ladyglittersparklestwtselfieday has been every 15th for 4 months now, and
its twitter
dante angrily rants about how #ladyglittersparklestwtselfieday is trending and says everyone posting selfies is ugly. bridget, who has no idea what is going on, qrts with "thats not nice, my fans are beautiful 😊" and classical trolls are MADDDDDD
diamonds (part 2): tiny (on his trollex stan account) admits he is actually 1 year old instead of 14 and everyone thinks hes doing a bit. he says he is tiny diamond from that famous family vlog channel and gets in trouble for "laughing at a real infant being exploited". he posts a selfie as proof but gets mass reported and ends up losing 62k twitter followers. he cries to his daddy about it
guy: didnt i ban you from social media? tiny: well Clearly you didnt do a very good job, did you?
this lands guy in hot water for "letting his son get groomed". he makes a joke along the lines of "the only time i let him get groomed is when i take him to get his hair styled" and people do nooooooooot like that one 😬. cj, priscilla and keith (all approx 13) were tinys mutuals and are betrayed at the revelation. tinys last tweet is "sorry oomfs" before they softblock him bc they all have "dni if under 10" in their bios. priscilla (pfp: cunty fluttershy with filters) tries to get clout by cancelling him post-suspension but its something really dumb like "he was proship (source: he ships squidbob (spongebob is minor coded))" and all the qrts that arent making fun of her for the nonsense tweet is some variation of "preschooltwt is heating up 🔥"
branch and poppy (part 2): branch sees all the smoppy and starts to think that it's real (he and poppy havent had sex in 5 days, which is the longest theyve ever gone without one of them being on tour (during which they zoom every other night. it's why branch has to have his own separate tour bus)). branch once again drinks his feelings and declines jds invitation to join him doing the same. branch publicly tweets “@/therealsmidgeNA HOMEWRECKERRRRRRRR” which is taken as confirmation that smidge and poppy are together for realsies.
poppy checks up on him via text poppy: branchifer What is going on branch: why dont you ask smidge since you clearly like her more than me branch: sorry *smidgifer (poppy sends an emoji combo that properly conveys “i am still concerned for your emotional well-being but i dont appreciate the way you are treating me right now. i will give you some time to cool off and we will discuss this later. i love you") branch (cant find the middle finger emoji in his drunken state):👆 poppy: im glad we agree ❤
after branch sobers up the next morning, they talk things out. they decide to go public with their relationship (again) and before poppy can stop him he tweets out "i dont care if you guys make porn of me and poppy anymore, as long as its Only me and poppy. no smidge. no creek. no other rumoured-or-confirmed ex romantic interests of either of us. just me. just poppy. broppy on top." their date nights (most nights) now regularly involve them reading the newest broppy fics on troll ao3. poppy even shows branch the nsfw twitter art tag, which he didnt know was a thing, but she sure has for the longest time. happy ending to the broppy saga.
Brozone (and friends (and enemies)) twitter drama au
Collaborative between me and @squirrelpatties. Truly our magnum opus
Jd: previously a frequent twitter e-clown infamous for name searching and starting beef with people who insulted him. His fanbase thought it was hilarious in a "grandpa escaped the hospital" way. Eventually was forced to relinquish control of @/brojohndoryofficial to his pr manager (clay) after he responded to 14 y/o @/j0ndryballzweat.
Floyd (part 1): his sex tape (with a fan he didnt know was a fan but thats hardly relevant) gets leaked. For the first three days everyone's timeline was full of "do NOT share it around, dont even look for it, if someone sends it to you IGNORE it, this is a disgusting breach of privacy" until Floyd addresses it by tweeting "decided to put on a different kind of show for you guys" and all hell breaks loose. Every tweets hidden replies are full of screencaps and reuploads for a month. People edit the video so just before anything explicit happens it's replaced by a video game cutscene or meme, which Floyd retweets a lot of. His brothers ask him to stop (both for publicity and bc it makes them uncomfortable) so he starts posting thirst traps on insta. Clay yells at him so Floyd tweets "clay just asked when I'm gonna get a girlfriend :/" which brings us to-
Clay: homophobia allegations. Admittedly the least serious and would have blown over quickly if it weren't for him panic tweeting "I'm not homophobic! My girlfriend is a bi lesbian!" People were NOT happy. It takes him three days of retweeting 'helpful educational threads and carrds' on lesbianism written by 14 y/os for people to get off his back. Viva understands.
Bruce: stays off social media bc its the mind killer so he lets clay take care of @/brobruceofficial. This goes well until clay gets drunk and thinks he's on his private account but is actually on Bruce's public. When he wakes up (hungover) in the morning hes got Bruce banging on his door asking why TMZ is reporting on him cheating on his wife. Bruce tells him to clear things up but clay JUST got the lesbians off his back and can't afford to be back in the hotseat...
Branch and poppy: branch was annoyed by all the branch/poppy rpf fanfic (poppy likes them bc she thinks they're cute and funny. When brozone go on tour she reads the smutty ones) so he suggested to poppy that they stage a fake breakup. Poppy is initially against the idea until branch brings up how much fun itd be to sneak around like a couple of teenagers. Poppy scrapbooks the tabloids about their breakup. Clay and Bruce blame clays drunken tweets on branch so clay seems like the victim. Poppy acknowledges this on twitter in a way that very heavily implies they broke up bc branch was cheating on her with her own sister. Viva does not understand. This one doesn't have a resolution yet bc we moved onto:
Barb: previous lesbian icon turned reactionary transphobe. Riff stopped associating with her once she started getting really public with it and now she keeps tweeting stuff like "you-know-who left me just to work with misogynists. Really makes you think 🤔 " which he ignores.
Riff: while still working with barb he was approached to collab with creek (damage control for the... unsavoury things he said about rock trolls). The second the song released he tweeted "wow that guy was an asshole LOL" bc he didn't realise he wasn't supposed to do that. Cut contact with barb once her transphobia went from "mild, I can fix her" to "jesus fucking christ". Briefly worked with Floyd until his second controversy at which point riff tweeted "cmon, man" and turned off his phone. Riff hasn't done anything wrong and he deserves a lot better
Velvet: crafted the perfect expose thread on Floyd when she was in prison, including "pro life" "publicly sharing inappropriate sexual content" and "uses the toothpaste flag". Posts it the second she gets let out of prison and instantly becomes #1 on trending (alongside "floyd" "pro life" and "#HUGS4CLAY).
Floyd (part 2): tweets "why does it even matter that I'm pro life if I'm gay and don't 'believe' in 'voting'" before doing another line off his boyfriends torso. People bring his leaked nudes back up and start insulting his dick size and its the first time hes ever let a controversy bother him. His next tweet is "I am not ashamed of my body" and the top reply (creek pfp) is "you should be ❤". Clay is biting the skin off his own tongue.

My Ghost Roomie AU
An SVSSS Modern AU where a young aspiring writer with a pen name called Airplane Shooting Towards the Sky acquired a new apartment that has been warned to be haunted. He does not care for this since it's a big enough apartment with a strong internet connection and within budget from his small earnings as a writer. At first, he heeds the warnings and might have noticed a moving chair or a chill down his spine, but ultimately he's too broke to care. Until one day,
when he gets up from his seat to get himself some snacks from the fridge, he returns to a person with their eyes glued to his desktop's screen. 'I should really fix my sleep schedule. I'm starting to see things,' he thought.
He tried to blink it away - still there, even stepping out of the room for a second only to come back with the same picture. A dude with glasses, a plain shirt, pajamas, arms, and legs crossed with a scowl seemed fixated on the screen.
Besides the fact that there's just a whole dude in his apartment, he also appears to be… floating?
He thought to call the police or shout for help, but he's half sleep-deprived to think logically and half thinking is this real? Is this all real?
"Hello?" he asks. The ghost finally broke his stance with the screen and looked at Airplane, "Why is it just porn? Where is the plot?" He remarks.
"What?" he asks again,
"The first chapters were exceptional and promising, but we are almost ending the story, and there are still plot holes?"
Taken aback by this sudden criticism of his work, Airplane has always thought that critics are just people that have the power to cower behind their screens, therefore brave enough to post their arguments online. He never thought someone would actually say these words to his face. He thought people wanted to save their smug faces from consequences --- well, given that this 'person' is -
"A ghost," he finally exclaimed, "You're dead right and not just some fan or anti that just doxxed me to say these things to my face?"
"Dude, look at me," the ghost gestured, "I'm literally floating."
"I see that," he mumbles, "so you're the ghost that haunts this apartm - "
"Before you interrogate me, can you explain why you haven't filled the plot holes yet," the ghost pointed at the screen.
"Well, not that I need to explain to you about my writing process," he furrowed his eyebrows and crossed his arms in defense, "but ultimately, no one really cares about the plot, bro, I tried making one, but it made people bored," Airplane explained.
"So you threw out your integrity as a writer and just wrote papapa scenes?"
Airplane gasped, 'The audacity of a dead man!'
"Oi, it's still good! At least the main story is wrapped, and the 'plot holes,'" he air quoted, "Can just be something the audience can ponder. Give them a sense of freedom on how things will go," he smugly replied.
The ghost raised his eyebrow, unconvinced by this guy that seemed to be the type that squeaks like a hamster, "Sure, let's say that." The ghost looked back at the screen.
An awkward pause on the apparent sarcasm of this ghost, Airplane cleared his throat and asked again. "So you're the ghost that haunts this apartment, right? Did you die here?" he asked.
"I did"
"And?"
The ghost looked at Airplane again. "And? I died here and then became a ghost. What more do you want?"
"Like how did you die, did you become a ghost because of unfinished business, was this your home, what's your name, why did you kick out the previous tenants, how long have you been reading my work, why haven't you tried to possess or kill me, why did you show yourself to me, how old are you, when did you die –"
"Fucking hell shut up," he rudely interrupted. "I'll only answer what I know."
"Okay, go on."
The ghost sighs, "Yes, this was my home. I didn't like how people stayed here when I'm still living here."
'Living lol'
"I did bother you for the first few days, but you didn't seem to care and only focused on the screen, so I was curious to see. I don't know how you can see me, but I guess that's that."
"Huh," Airplane remarked, "that's all you know? Not even your name?"
"Ah, my name's Shen Yuan."
"Airplane," he reciprocated.
"Airplane? You want me to call you by your pen name?"
"Yeah, I mean, no offense, bro, but you're a ghost, and I don't know," he starts waving his arms around as he explains, "You might need my name to do ghost things like possessing me and stealing my body or something."
He stared at the man with a confused look, "Your story has rotten your judgment of ghosts," Shen Yuan noted.
Airplane laughs, "But anyway, does that mean you're my roomie? I never had a ghost for a roommate."
"There's a first for everyone,” he shrugged.
So it seems, a first of many.

yknow if someone is gonna be using people and vilifying them later to play victim the least they could do is like... idk exercise more caution?? lmao...
like he gives people his name, phone number, and address without thinking about it.
id pass on the message so he can avoid having someone actually malicious try to target him but uh...
breathes.
well if he by chance is stalking me at all he can see this and be like ‘oh shit people have my address they might be able to get me’
bro gonna step on the wrong toes and get himself doxxed by some really bad folks no doubt.. should just take all the money he can from his own abuser and get some damn mental help like he needs instead of manipulating people himself. =/ but i guess the manipulation comes easier for him.
sigh.. my dad has trained me to not hate people even if they have hurt me. such is the way of being abused by someone who says ‘i do this because i love you.’
