Putting some stuff about the Forever situation under the cut so it's as avoidable as possible. If you're trying to avoid the situation, I recommend blacklisting"forever situation" since that seems to be the main tag. Stay safe.
So, a good chunk of CCs (pretty much every QSMP CC with a Twitter + other ones that were closely associated) have unfollowed Forever on various platforms, including people who were very close to him, like Cellbit, Baghera, and even Brunim. He's also been banned in Phil's Twitch chat and presumably cross-banned across many others, as that's usually how Phil likes to run things. Regardless of how any of us might feel about the situation, it seems behind the scenes, there is a consensus.
Hot take, but I don't think publicly expelling Forever with a big display and a long drawn-out speech is the best course of action. This may be Twitter drama to us, but for them, it's a real person who has been their friend and a part of their lives for the past several months. There are actual people involved, and we as outsiders aren't entitled to jack shit, as much as some people like to act like they're personally affected. An announcement just confirming that he won't be coming back with no further message, and then we all move on with our lives. I feel like there's this weird expectation that everyone has to make a huge public announcement any time something goes wrong, but that literally doesn't do shit, except stir the pot. It sucks, but it's all in the past, nothing to be done now, we move on.
(Plus, if Forever was serious about the suing people thing, it might be in Quackity Stuios' best interest as a company to just do it as quietly as possible)

As someone who comes from a family who all struggled with my mental health, Kipperlilly's such a real character to me. I was very different than Kipperlilly growing up, but I had a slew of mental health issues, including anger issues, that were never quite extreme enough to be taken seriously until I got older, and they took over my life.
One of the major things I can remember telling myself growing up is, "I wish something terrible would happen so people would pay attention to me." That's not a good thing to say, and I can't say that what she said was good either; I think the point is that it's extremely bad, and no healthy person would claim that they wished their parents were evil or dead and they're jealous that someone else's parents are.
Kipperlilly is extremely flawed; she's self-destructive and exhibits a lot of toxic behaviors, as do the rest of the rat grinders, but I have so much empathy for the fact that they are also struggling kids who are in wayy over their heads. They're smart and certainly culpable for their actions, but also still teenagers looking for validation from their peers and the adults in their life, which was utilized to the advantage of Porter and maybe Jace as well depending on what direction they take his character. Honestly, great antagonists, 10/10.

I look forward to more people discovering just how impactful what Jodie Whittaker did as the 13th doctor was.
To me, she ran her own marathon at a sprint, breaking down boundaries without so much as a word for those who had put them in place.
And she seemingly did it all with joy, and respect, and kindness (jfc if you ever get the chance to meet her she is so kind I cannot put it into words).
She is an incredible ambassador for the ability of representation to inspire, to recognise, to reconfigure (dare i say also to regenerate lol).

i think something that frustrates me about ted and rebecca even beyond the whole no-romance thing (crying forever btw 😢) is that they never really got to have a coherent storyline together again after s1 and the christmas episode, and uh ..... i think it would have been cool to have more of those shared between the two leads of the show. like, in a way, i think i would have been more okay with it not being shippy if they'd had more storylines and more of a definitive overall series arc together, because presumably then at least we would have seen them interact regularly enough and in a variety of conditions enough that i would've gotten more of a feel for why it wasn't a romantic thing and what, in fact, it was? i don't know! i just really wish they'd given that dynamic wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more to do and way more interest after s1. it just felt like they were deliberately written to be ships in the night, all the time, no harbor ever, which feels crummy. like, s1 sets them up to be very close friends with these parallel struggles, but then they barely have even a shared b-plot together ever again after the christmas ep. the closest thing is one shared scene followed up by one phone call in 3.08, right? and then the series finale, where they do actually finally have three whole related scenes together, shock of all time.
anyway. so weird. SO WEIRD! such a funky writing choice that i am not a fan of.

I will never stop talking about how comforting the line "Oh, but worry not" followed by that gorgeous ass piano in Missing Limbs is.
Like whatever you say man; mind is cleared, I'm in my lane, I'm unbothered and moisturized like tf

Oh my god it finally happened!
My small closed subreddit I moderate finally got the attention of the Reddit overlords!
Guys they sent this message 8/8/23, I closed the sub two flipping months ago and they finally noticed I'm still waving a tiny defiant flag

Why did Kim Rok Soo live like Satiama.
Hear me out:
The guy lived on the outskirts of town, basically isolated from civilization unless he was working (which probably built on his depression as social interaction is a very valuable thing to mental health). His work includes defeating monsters that threaten human life, and before he got good at it, he used to lose a lot. In fact, he got hurt a lot. He didn't let that part bother him too much because it was part of the job and it meant he would reach his goal. Saving people. Building strength to take down any enemy. Says he doesn't have a lot of money, yet may, in fact, be very rich (Krs was definitely rich and just lied, and while he doesn't exactly start out having actual income that I know of, he doesn't pay rent, and now Genos gives him money).
Thinks his problems are his own, and doesn't realize that whenever he meets people that don't hate him, he feels a bit better about life.
I'm just saying, is there a counterargument?

> FERDINAND II.
And so your PLANT shall henceforth be known as FERDINAND II.
The thought of needing to inform FERDINAND I of his having a namesake makes you a bit ill, but you are already hard at work devising several plausible excuses for the gesture. Something about how you've named it after the one most invested in its naming, or how it is similarly prone to drooling. Yes. Yes, you will be able to deflect quite easily, should the need arise. It has nothing to do with your fondness for FERDINAND or your desire for a substitute in his imminent absence, no—again, you are not so prone to sentimentality. It's about the drool.
Well, anyway. Best to move on with your day and think about something else, lest you grow maudlin or cultivate further affection for the PLANT. May the GODDESS be merciful and never cause you to develop inclinations that could be described as paternal.
Now that your plant has received sufficient care, it is time for COFFEE. You set to making your morning brew. By CHANCE, there happens to be sufficient water remaining in the kettle for FERDINAND I to have TEA, should he wish it.
Per your TIMEPIECE, it is now a quarter to eight. You have made excellent progress on your PRE-BREAKFAST TO-DO LIST thus far: the only remaining task is to remove FERDINAND. You are starting to get rather peckish and would like to be rid of him quickly, but over the past week, you have found that extracting the man from YOUR QUARTERS is a more arduous task than it ought to be.

Mob taking Reigen as last name, because the sound of it means so much to them both after years of adressing his soon-to-be husband with that name.
Mob taking Reigen as last name to put the family part into Arataka's family name.
vs
Arataka taking Kageyama as last name, because Mob's family is important to Mob while the only importance the name Reigen has for Arataka is that Mob adressed him as such for years.
Arataka taking Kageyama as last name because Mob wants him to become part of the Kageyama family.
(it's a draw)
