Jason Todd but Not! (AU's)
If you want to read AUs that give you different versions of Jason Todd, this is for you. These 8 fics are all categorized as gen, and I tried to include lesser known works here.
I'll be listing
Word count
Any rating above teen
Archive warnings
Major relationships
Mind the specific tags on a work before you read
~~~
The We in I by forestgreen
12,680; Jason Todd & Bruce Wayne
There never was a Jason.
A fic exploring Jason Todd through the lens of him having DID. There's so much care put into this fic, and it genuinely changed how I thought about certain canon events. I also love the voice forestgreen employs for Jay. They capture the magic of 80s Jason Todd perfectly, while making him sound correct in the modern setting.
I have no tongue and I must scream by Sassaphrass
5,242; The Batfamily Hunger Games AU: Former Victor Jason Todd returns to his District for the first time in a long time. Something is troubling his fellow Victors and he gets a surprising recruit to his murderous crusade against the Capitol.
AND
Red, and Terrible, and Red by Sassaphrass
13,075; Rape/Non-Con, Underage; Dick Grayson & Jason Todd, Talia al Ghul/Jason Todd On a journey from Victor, to Slave to Rebel (with just a short side-trip through insane vengeance fueled serial killer), for Jason Todd winning the Hunger Games was only the beginning.
I can’t decide which of these to recommend first. They’re part of the same series, and if you get invested you’ll want to read both anyway. The first fic in the series sets the general DC/Hunger Games premise, while the the other one is purely Jason’s backstory. I find myself re-reading Red, and Terrible, and Red because his backstory is immaculate, but you probably should read the setup fic first 😅
Whisper Closely In My Ear by KangaRou
8,518; Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings; Tim Drake & Jason Todd, Dick Grayson & Jason Todd, Jason Todd & Bruce Wayne The words went in one ear, rattled around like bees, before ramming out the other. The doctor was sitting painfully close, only two feet away. The tone of voice implied he was talking louder, not quite a yell but something nearly there; it sounded like a whisper to Jason. So quiet, with every third word unintelligible, except for that first phrase: "Mr Wayne, I'm afraid you're profoundly deaf." --- Jason is profoundly deaf. He learns to cope with it.
The premise is exactly what it sounds like, but so much more. The author goes into detail regarding Jasons treatment, how Bruce (isn't) being helpful, and the genuine fear he feels when he's with his family. It's separated into small scenes that connect beautifully. A must read honestly.
We'll Never Get Free (Lamb To The Slaughter) by AquamarineMemeBender
4,286; Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Major Character Death; Jason Todd & Bruce Wayne, Damian Wayne & Colin Wilkes, Batfamily Members & Jason Todd, Batfamily Members & Bruce Wayne "He keeps throwing kids into his own self destruction and never understands that he'll never be able to save them." "I know," she gasps. "I know. I already know. He didn't save me, he didn't save my mom, he didn't save my best friend or-" "You know," Jason assures her, and rests the end of his gun on her forehead as gently as possible. "He doesn't." Or: Bruce keeps making Robins. Jason keeps killing them.
Very dark, and also relies on the Lazarus Pit. BUT! The pit is used differently here, adding to the surreal horror of this fic. Reading this is like watching a car made of hope, love, and familial trust crash into a brick wall.
Turning Point by Neocolai
4,310; Not Rated; Graphic Depictions Of Violence Hood had one standard as a hired gun — he didn’t shoot kids. The Joker should’ve known better than to involve him, even if the party in question was Bat-trained.
Aaand a fic that is the complete opposite of the last one.
I love seeing how people make Jason the Red Hood without the ‘I am a better Batman’ angle or the bruce daddy issues. This is a solid read.
keep on haunting me by Littlearrows
4,090; Dick Grayson & Jason Todd After his time as a mob boss, Jason opens a private detective agency for Gotham's ghosts, investigating their deaths and helping them find justice. A case leads him to getting justice for his own ghost haunting him. (aka a supernatural noir detective AU)
This is a banger noir fic that sprinkles in intriguing worldbuilding, and gives the characters a really cool vibe. Jason feels like a legitimate detective & I could easily imagine this being a slice from a video game.
The Zombie Robin by Penglaive
36,301 Nearly half a year after Jason Todd was murdered by the Joker, Scarecrow launched a plot to delve six feet deeper into the heart of fear. Whether this plot went ultimately right or horribly wrong is a matter of perspective, but everyone involved could agree it went weird quickly, even by Gotham standards.
Jason must deal with his unknown zombie status in this fic, and it has more depth than you might imagine. Penglaive strikes a nice tonal balance between serious and lighthearted, switching perspectives giving context to the greater impact of Jason's return. This one is uberly underrated.
~~~
Sooo that’s my list. Obviously there are a lot more fics that fit these tropes, but this is just a cheese platter of different Jason Todds......
ANYWAYS I hope you enjoy these hidden teasures, like ken.
Ken out 😘

what if i vaguepost (not that vaguely) about a random reddit post i saw about one of my favorite bands. what then
#my stuff#ik tumblr is the piss on the poor website but the absolute LACK of comprehension that user EXUUDED. fuck you honestly (not actually)#no the song isnt transphobic??? its MAKING FUN OF the STEREOTYPE of all feminists being “ugly man hating lesbians”#Which You Would Know if you looked at anything they said about the song#it says that on the description of the youtube upload of the song#they dont mean most of the stuff they say in the damn song#“wanting equality means we hate men” (first of all that is obviously sarcastic) “we only mean cis men of course”#is calling out how man hating rhetoric#no matter how well intentioned the person is#can quickly lead to exclusion of people you should want on your side (trans men AND women non binary people (esp amab ones))#and if you looked at more of their songs#fauxminism is Actively Calling Out Terf Rhetoric#siiiiigh#i don't have a reddit account and even if i did the post is archived so i cant comment this (and im not confrontational enough to anyway)#but GRAASGH it made me probably more mad than i should

I can't really word exactly why this episode breaks me so goshdang much, but it does. It never fails to make me cry no matter where I'm at emotionally when I'm watching it. It just breaks and heals my heart and soul in a way very few pieces of media have ever managed to. So I'm dropping this here. Enjoy.
#Youtube#bluey#“be normal about it” i am 🥺#I'm not joking when i say that bluey really can be healing#especially for people who experienced trauma as a kid#me being one of them 🥺#it also reminds me a lot of nights growing up for me#so ik there's gonna be a bunch of people scoffing at me for this but#i dont care#because it's healing to ME#and that's what matters#asterrisks

WELCOME BACK 2 ME RANTING ABOUT RANDOM STUFFZ!!
i posted dis comment on a scenecore playlist yt vid ( where half of the comments were calling it ''poser music'' and sumtimes straight up insulting the op ) and feel like i should post it here too
thank GAWD i dont see dis much of hatred against scenecore here on tumblr ( which is one of the biggest reasons i switched 2 it lulz ) but there seems to be a LOT of it on other social medias ( especially on youtube and tiktok ) and i just want 2 say:
if you get pissed over seeing ''scenecore'' on your screen, ur chronically online and u need 2 put the screen away for sum time. maybe even forever
ik ive ranted abt it alrdy b4 and it shouldnt even matter but thats the thing: it shouldnt even matter. yet these peeps still get inconvienced by it even tho there r much worse things going on 2 worry about
I cant believe its 2024 and i still see people call others ( mostly kids too ) ''posers'' or ''locals'' or just straight up insulting them over stuff like that.. :/

ngl stopping caring abt celebrities/youtubers/big artists was the best decision of my life. nowadays i dont expect any decency from ppl i dont know, which you would think is common sense but alas. only one youtuber i really feel attached to and im working on chipping away at that attachment bc i Do Not Know this man no matter how kind & charming i think he seems. sometimes it makes me feel a little left out when i see ppl who are so devoted to their favs but then i see those same ppl get heartbroken when allegations come out and ik ive made the right decision.

💣
listen . i knowwww that people joking about the drama is the least of our damn worries and it is no where comparable to people who are actively spreading misinformation, but it's pissing me off because it makes the entire situation look like pointless drama when in reality the situation is a victim whos been pushed and prodded at for years finally snapping and hitting back just to be harassed and gaslit for it
and i appreciate that they dont get anymore involved in that but it makes the whole damn thing seem like petty drama when its actually a massive smear campaign with slander and harassment and filled to the brim with ableism and homophobia.
^ i know im being a toxic and emotional drolo. give me 5 business days to be normal again and wrangle in the rsd .
okay i have a lot of thoughts bottled up but another thought is about the video, seen some mixed thoughts about the video and tbh i originally was on the side of, maybe not release a video, but nopee ive fully switched now i think he should make one. the "behind the scenes" shit has gotten way out of hand and has been festering for years, i dont think ignoring it is going to help and will only make everything worse. i mean we're getting shit as recent as late last year with the coldi and fein.bergs friend thing, the rumor mill is horribly active and i really think that leaving it alone is going to make things worse. like we see it taken care of in bits and pieces but i really think the entire thing needs to be dismantled instead of slowly disproving things at a time as they come up.
Especially seeing how many ccs outside of his immediate sphere are weighing in against him almost certainly because of misinformation. ik that those ccs "dont really matter" because they never made content to begin with, but also being a cc means networking. not to mention that it just fucking sucks to have people believe blatant lies about you and think youre an awful person because of it???? like why let them continue thinking that if you could do something to disprove it?
like idkkkk call me an optimist but i trust that he knows what hes doing. with the truth video people were saying he shouldnt put it on main but him doing that worked out wonderfully for him + him holding off on saying anything publicly because of his legal teams advice really didnt do him any favors and him choosing to publish a video(which i think is what he originally wanted to do?) is what finally cleared up his name. idk im just not a youtube expert and dreams certainly proven that he knows what hes doing when it comes to navigating youtube so i'll trust him on whatever he ends up doing.
this feels a lot like december 2023 to me where, a controversy involving dream happens(gumball) -> dream does a stream and explains what happened (parkour stream) -> he gets clipped out of context + the situation explodes, practically everyone is against him (we all saw the tweets and threads that were coming out then 💀) -> dream releases a video -> people flip massively
and this controversy doesnt necessarily cover something as "serious" as grooming allegations, but he still has a lot of vague and not so vague bullshit hes being accused of (trump supporter, misogynist, "bad actions in the past", generally manipulative ig?? etc etc.)
dunno if dream will cover the rumor mill stuff necessarily but drolo for life, i trust his instincts

IGCSE
Heyy everyone
So did CIE's IGCSE and *hair flip* got an A* in all my subjects.
So yeah I'm just tryna help. Fr.
Now listen u dont need to get an A* to be happy with ur grades. If those are ur goals then u go girl. If those are not u still go girl.
But my mum always says "Always aim higher than what u can get. Then you will reach the farthest u can go. Now go make another omelette for me."
Now a major thing I would do before an exam is open a candidate response, the qp, the ms and the examiner report.
Do each question, check with the markscheme, check the candidate response and assess where u are and then the examiner report.
I love this so much: https://paper.sc/
Examiner reports are a really underrated resource and are REALLY HELPFUL.
Use the 'IGCSE' reddit and discord server
IGCSE Notes – Soumya Pandey
Here are some of the resources I used and each subject tips
Maths:
Past papers past papers past pAPERS PAST PAPERS PAST PA-
Girl i cant tell u enough
Also makes sure to learn all the calculator tricks including the linear equations one, differentiation (the only ones I can think off the top of my head)
Make sure to practice past papers have good time management. Calm down during the exam. It'll all be fine.
(trust me i went and got bangs cause i was depressed about the way i wrote the exam and here we are)
Sciences:
Use the examiner report tip. Always always use the syllabus of each subject. And ofc past papers
Skill for Science Packs - Google Drive
Bio:
Drives:
IGCSE Biology (0610) notes from MS - Google Drive
bio
Chem:
Heather Houston - YouTube
IGCSE all chemical tests - YouTube
Drives:
chm
0620 Chemistry – Google Drive
Phy:
physics resources
Business:
Bs is one of the easist subjects cause of the repeated questions and the low thresholds. If there is one subject u wanna chose for fun let it be BS or EVM
EVM:
Smallest syllabus ever
Just do past papers you'll be fine
Ik everyone says that but thats cause its true
The same advice goes to ICT. Like the practicals are the easiest shit u can think of but a big mistake that people do is forget theory.
Study for theory and u get good marks.
English (1st language) :
My fav subject in IGCSE
It was sooo good
Always choose descriptive its just easier to score in
Go read books from good authors like Madelline Miller, Katherine Arden, and Ocean Vuong. Get phrases that u really like and copy them into a word document. Go through it before the exam and use it in the writing
You can also use: https://www.descriptionari.com/
Examiners' Secrets: Descriptive Writing (Mr Salles) - YouTube
Paper 1 video
---------
AND THATS ALL
To everyone doing their GCSE's
All the best
Just remember that it isnt everything. Year 10 and 11 is all about finding urself and having the time of ur life. I sure as hell did. And at the end of the day these results dont matter half as much as u think. Its not that they're not important. Its just that there are more important things in the world.
Go live ur best life before the A level train hits.

girl i need to know ur thoughts on alahna. like for me i genuinely miss her sm bro and it makes me so upset that she still wishes they could be friends -but they’ve just like fully ignored the whole thing and have never said a WORD abt it whereas she’s constantly like reposting stuff about old friendships and such that’s def about them. also i always think about how like even IF they became friends again and like we all found out, there would always be like a sense of awkwardness knowing abt the friendship breakup. like obvi it’s happened before with youtubers and stuff where they’ve stopped hanging out but then a couple years later theyre friends again, but i really don’t know if i see that happening, and like she’s a childhood friend as well so it’s a bit different. ALSO it makes me so sad too how they make such an effort with nate and see him all the time, i just don’t get what happened with alahna like that’s my girlll. AND (sorry i keep thinking of more stuff), with the whole unfollowing thing that started it all, that really caught me off guard cos like they have other friends from boston who i bet they dont see that much, but they still have each other on insta, like there’s no need to fully remove them off all their socials ykwim?
also just another thing (IM SORRY😭) in regards to madi, i love her and think she’s so cute, and honestly by no means do i believe she’s replaced alahna cos their friendships were always so different, but for me no matter how close they get with her, it’s just not gonna compare to their childhood friendships, cos it’ll always be through her mom being their manager, so it lowks work related?? STAWP it sounds like i’m hating on her NO I LOVE HER PLS - and i do think their friendship with her is very genuine i’m just saying like the vibes i get are so diff to their boston friends
like in their videos with alahna/nate/chloe etc the friendships are just so real it just like makes me so upset bro idek( obvs it’s cos they grew up tg but yk😭😭)
sorry for this long ass rant ik its sooo not that serious and none of my business at all but like i genuinely mourn their friendship constantly ❤️🩹❤️🩹
PLEASE.
PLEASE.
PLEASE.
DONT GET ME STARTED.
I don’t think anybody understand how much i love and adore alahna. No doubt i miss her ass soooooooooooooooooooo bad. I literally talk about it every single day it’s my disgusting roman empire i never stop thinking of her, I’ll die without ever knowing what happened between them. But im sure it was all for a reason, i know it doesn’t look like it makes sense but we weren’t there and we never know what goes down behind the scenes. I don’t think it was anything messy i don’t believe alahna has ever had bad intentions and she never will. But i mean it’s obvious something rough happened if they treat her that differently from the other friends in boston, ill never fucking knoooowwww and i have to get over it one day but i miss her so so so so so so sos is sos sosososowowowowowo BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD. Fuck. Im not saying anybody is trying to compare, but nobody will ever compare. That’s all and if u don’t like alahna i hate you and block me

I know I don't need to defend the big bad studio that's owned by the founder of Nike so his son can make his movies, but I really hope the people at Laika Studios didn't know about Neil when they made Coraline , because I like a lot of their other movies and I really Would be disappointed if one of the only two studios that dedicate itself to stop motion was complicit in less. Like stop motion is a dying art form because of CGI. I mean between the whole Aardman running out of the type of clay they use, and now this it just doesn't bode well for the art form.
honestly, hard to say. neil had a very good reputation for a long time (there were definitely people who didn't like him but from what i recall people really hated on amanda more than him really) and he managed to keep all this under wraps for a very long time. i think it's likely they were not fully aware of what he is but i also think it's likely if there were rumors going around back then they would have ignored it. it sucks but thats how the industry is, thats how power is. and i also think a lot of abusers dont do what they do with the conscious thought of "im going to abuse someone just to be an abuser, i identify as an abuser" i think they make justifications to themselves about why they think their case is somehow special and they may genuinely hold feminist/progressive beliefs and easily call out other people but in their mind, what they're doing is different. of course it doesn't matter what they believe if their actions aren't in line. but its also why if people see them doing something that feels wrong they might brush it off and be like "no way hes a good guy" or question themselves and if stuff does come out with evidence they still might be like "well he was nice to me" or something.
im not saying cancel laika because i dont have evidence that they knew or they didnt know but i will say invest in DIY art and small indie studios, like not A24 but small local teams with no budget making stuff from the heart. be open to media that isnt necessarily as polished as youre used to. i guarantee there are more studios out there who do stop motion, or even like youtube channels (i remember people making full on movies with lps figures, which ik isn't exactly stop motion but it counts for something imo). i'd start by looking thru college departments bc people are making a lot of interesting stuff for school work there, or even like vimeo or reddit. basically with any person or entity like neil gaiman or laika, i think its fair to recognize their talent and contributions to art, but i would avoid deeply emotionally investing in them which ik is hard bc we love stories we can connect to. but i just dont believe you can get to the level of power that they have had without the line between art and industry being blurred and i dont think you get to the absolute top of an industry without fucking someone over or something messed up happening.

i think a very important lesson that not everybody gets so far is that despite, regardless of, and because of capitalisms increasing reach and seizing of the realm of art... you have got to consume art that isnt mainstream. i think a lot of ppl know this already if they didnt already bc of how hard it is to find anything good mainstream under a capitalist system, but while deconstructions of why/how capitalism works and complaints abt capitalism's effects in general are always correct and valid, sometimes i see takes on here that seem to come from a place of genuinely not understanding art exists somewhere else than pushed in your face by advertisements. ppl who love movies who genuinely don't seem to know where to find movies that aren't made by hollywood. ppl who hate modern booktok but don't know where to read smth unique. ppl who love video games but can't stomach AAA game industry rn and dont seem to realize how many ppl post indie video games for free.
and like. the solution is very simple. consume indie art. watch indie movies from small film festivals and small studios or one-man teams posted on video platforms. listen to indie musicians who have a few thousand listeners on bandcamp or are starting on youtube. play video games from indie developers and studios and modders in your community. read books and poetry self-published by writers you respect online but have been procrastinating reading their work. consume literally any art that cost less than a fucking million dollars to make, any art that was made out of genuine love and effort for the story, however flawed, rather than a flawed and half-polished and immoral story that's bland at best but has a character you know of.
like ik these things will not get rid of capitalism in the mainstream, but these kinds of smaller and beautifully real stories have always existed and all it takes is more than a few minutes of searching the internet to find things you will love. good and meaningful art always has and always will exist no matter the state of mainstream art dedicated to preserving a status quo or making money

I want to go off my meds. I don’t know if I admitted to myself how much I hate them until I was watching a YouTube video. It was supposed to be about movies. But it cut in to talk about the importance of medication and how mentally ill people should be sure to always take their meds. I wanted to cry. I still want to cry. I’ve been taking my meds diligently over two and a half years now. I’m not better. I took my meds diligently today. It didn’t stop me from thinking about standing in the middle of the road and letting a car run me over while I was at the crosswalk. My mom talks about how she was depressed as a teen too, and how it turned out to just be a hormonal imbalance and how meds really helped her. She doesn’t understand when I tell her I don’t want them. She doesn’t understand when I have a mental breakdown at the psychiatrist’s office (the alternative is masking everything and straight up lying to her face). Or she gets mad at me. She says I expect my medication to just be “magic” and “fix everything” and that I don’t get that I have to work to get better. Which I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY WON’T FIX EVERYTHING BUT IT FEELS LIKE THEY DON’T FIX ANYTHING. I remember learning in my AP Stats class about the placebo effect, and I asked if there was a reverse version of it. Something not working because you believe it doesn’t work. My teacher said yes. Maybe that’s it. Maybe I’m the problem. Maybe I just have to believe harder. But I want to sneakily stop taking my meds. I know my parents will be mad. They paid good money for them. But I have money. I can pay them back. I’ve tried to tell them multiple times. They won’t listen.
Well first, no matter your age and no matter what psychs or your parents tell you, You always know best who and how you are and what you need . If you feel like your meds dont help you, then they dont .
The placebo (or nocebo) effect describes how taking literal sugar pills every morning that have no effect because theres no medication in it can also make you feel a little bit better or a little bit worse simply because you believe that they have an effect - its also included in every study design as a way to test if meds actually work . They give one group sugar pills and the other gets the actual meds and then they try to find out if the medication works better than literal sugar pills. So if the only reason your meds had any positive or negative effect would be placebo or nocebo then you would be better off taking sugar pills since those at least dont make you physically dependent on them 💀💀💀 so no, you dont have to believe in meds for them to work . If antidepressants work or not is also heavily debated by the way . I recommend you read these studies . Youre not at fault for your meds not working, its psychiatry's fault .
This is an anti psych harm reduction guide for coming off psych meds . It can be really dangerous to suddenly stop taking your meds , so please read this guide about how to come off your meds .
Also in this ask I mentioned a few examples on what we can do to stop relying on psychiatry as an institution to help us and also how to protect us as far as possible from being oppressed by this institution . :)
Hope youre doing better soon . Ik how hard life can be .

thank you for answering even if there isnt a direct answer I guess only time will tell what the other side is like. lowkey thats why I wish I had been older than my current age so I wouldve done what I wanted too then seen what would occur when I pass away. sadly I still have quite a bit of time here and I am getting more and more bored of things in general. also sadly I have to find something to like yet at the same tome even kpop makes me feel old bc of the idols younger ages and how trends seem to keep overdoing it to the point I cant keep up with it anymore.
I havent found the same interest that others have in tiktok and youtube is only entertaining enough when I am trying not to die from boredom cause there really isnt much difference in whats available for some I guess they like what there is and for others I dont know what else there is for me to like without feeling overwhelmed by the amount thats available hence why just the basics would do for me. but even the basics are all fancy, expensive and flashy or excessive with all sorts of extras that you maybe dont want. ie: albums are no longer just cds and theres barely anyone who carries cds around with them. same for ipods which I used to love theres just no need for basic items anymore. Same with kpop, I neither hate nor fully love kpop just always somewhere in between bc I guess even in kpop I would be considered too old to do anything for it if that makes sense? I just hope I can wither away or decompose sometime soon rofl. I just wanna escapeeeee ik the irony of ranting about it on a screen too but society normalise phones so much what else we going to do?
Yeah, I get it. The CD thing is definitely for convenience more than anything, and things are much…Easier now. You don’t have to carry around a pack of CDs 24/7. Though I do understand what you’re saying. We definitely rely heavily on phones, but we do that with many other technologies like cars. It’s just a matter of preference, I suppose.

Tw eating disorder I guess Ive been having a huge problem with binging and purging and its been getting worse. Im to ashamed to tell someone who can actually help and i hate bringing it up with the few ppl who do know bc i dont want to bug them. I wish I had more discipline. Im just trying to keep my head above water but im so tired. it just feels like a matter of time before i completely lose control, and its my own fault - kc
Honestly eating disorders are so hard to navigate without a proper support system and it comes a time where it is a matter of life and death. I understand this confession might be a few years old which I’m sorry about.
But pls seek help in any way possible- heavily avoid pro*** or disordered eating content. Tiktok is honestly a great place to start or YouTube look at friendly nutritionists and qualified dietitian some make excellent videos on not bullying yourself when eating or help change eating mindset.
It’s definitely a hard journey for sure but it’s one that you need to decide to do it for yourself.
Definitely do talk to friends and family that know - ik it may feel like a burden but if they truly love you and care about you they will hold the space for u to cry and rant about this.
I wish all the best my dear kc ❤️

#then i went to look at the lyrics and lose my mind over them again#NOT EMOTIONAL?#ok i looked up satire definition and i understand how its a satire bc of its criticism of society#ex: 'the history of the world my love is those below serving those down below'#judge turpin getting no consequences for his actions because he is in power#until sweeney takes it into his own hands#i was thinking satire in the like not serious and just making fun of something way#how does it being a satire in THIS way make it not emotional.. its still emotional#ur soooo wrong random youtube commenter#irrelevant rant o clock babey#ik sometimes i tend to look into media more than ppl ik irl do or make it too deep#but i dont do that with this musical and i know i dont because it IS as deep as i think it is 100% no doubt#its just. so much to think about theres so much thought and work in the lyrics and story#i always notice something new#no matter how much i watch/listen to it#<3333333#mars posting

This is a bit of a rant, I hope you don't mind this🙃 just wanted your opinion.
I don't know if you saw it but that girl Aiva apologized to Sammy by making a video and nothing is wrong with that but her fans in the comments really piss me off, I've seen a few of her fans basically praise her like a god and it puts me off so badly, law of assumption itself isn't a cult but her fandom is so cult like, whatever their leader says is right, is right, she can do no wrong.
I hate when people look up to a horrible person (because let's be real here, someone who is transphobic and racist as well as extremely arrogant can't be a good person) and when someone tells them how bad they are they use some stupid excuse.
The hate Aiva got was ridiculous and she continues to get hate in the comments(I mean imagine if someone hacked into your accounts and that person was revealed to be around the same area a person that you know lives, I'm sure you'd be suspicious too or at least worried too), sure she should apologize for accusing her of whatever she accused her of, but Sammy's fans actually make me sick, I get some of them don't know about her stupidity but you're really telling me the ones on Twitter don't know? The one who literally defended all of her racist comments, her misgendering of a transgender person as well as her arrogance when it comes to taking accountability for the horrible things she's said??
I see comments like "oh this makes Sammy 10000x more powerful, I only trust her now, if this doesn't show she's good at manifesting then what does,"
The only coach in law of assumption ANYONE should follow is Neville, not including Tumblr blogs because of course all of you are amazing honestly, but when it comes to YouTube coaches and the ones who want money, bruh🙄 you can find ALL of that on the internet. And blogs here on Tumblr NEVER ask for money at all, because they're doing this on their own accord and because they know damn well this money in exchange for email shit is ridiculous since it's as easy as literally affirming, persisting and feeling you already have what you want.
I'm reading all these comments and they keep pissing me off even more, people talking about how Sammy is the only source of good law of assumption content, even some going as far as saying she's the original source like if Neville wasn't the one who gave her all this information. Some are even saying Sammy has nothing to be held accountable for and she was never wrong about anything it's like WTF 🙄🙃 people saying that everyone on YouTube copies Sammy like w.t.f
Also I think she deleted her Twitter🙃
no ik, her dickriders are literally the worst. they always find a way to excuse her actions,no matter what she does, and its appalling. she is a bad person, plain and simple. i even got some long asks yelling at me and defending her and i just deleted them cuz im not gonna post shit i dont agree with on MY blog.
i feel so sorry for Aiva. the dm came from "mermaid gang 2022" or something like that, and the ip address was traced back to the city sammy lives in. i'd jump to the same exact conclusion. she is really mature for apologizing to sammy, something sammy herself could never do, clearly. Aiva is still a victim here, getting her channel she worked hard on deleted. she is so sweet and i hope all of this gets sorted out for her <3
