suicide cw

look i have been in this area before mentally. it sucks and i wouldn’t wish this on anyone. but, and this is going to sound callous, but i don’t feel any sympathy for james somerton. even if i hope he’s like. not dead. But thats all the amount of goodwill im willing to give him. The more i think about this really, the more angry i am. 

ngl this entire situation is another example of how white people weaponize their mental illness to avoid consequences. Im seeing it in real time.

this man has a continuous habit of using self-harm as a get-out-of-jail-for-free card. in both of his apologies, he has worded his supposed attempts in ways that were clearly meant to guilt people who displayed his plagiarism and overall horrendous history of racism and misogyny. i say supposed because, while i’m not saying those are lies and this would he such a fucked up thing to lie about that i don’t want to think he has, unfortunately, it’s been proven again and again that his word can’t be trusted, as he’s known to lie to try get out of consequences. Hes a proven liar. him lying about this is actually the best case scenario, because no one should go through this entire situation, wouldnt wish this on anyone, but you can only do this so often before people stop sympathizing with you. is this callous? Yeah, but like. I’m actually fucking angry he cant straight up take no as an answer. that this is how he reacts realizing he cant be one of the Cool Kidz™️ on youtube anymore. he acts like he DESERVES a career, like its not a privilege hes lost due to his own actions.

He lied about apologizing and forgiving people, he lied about giving the money to hbomberguy to give to ppl he ripped off (yknow, instead of doing it himself), he lied about the jessie gender situation and rewrote the narrative to make it so he isnt the bad guy, and hes the victim all along actually!

you can’t tell me that supposed last message of his isn’t meant to be a 13 reasons why esq attempt to deflect the blame “look i’m going to kill myself and it’s all YOUR PEOPLES FAULT for not letting me achieve my DREAM of being filmmaker IN PEACE!!! I just wanted Nick’s (the guy who I have thrown under the bus again and again) portfolio up!! Im just being a good friend dont you all FEEL BAD” he refuses to take ANY ACCOUNTABILITY of any of his actions and he IS STILL trying to shove the blame over to other people again.

it’s also pretty ironic people are like “uhhh well hbomber’s fans harassed him!!!” like hbomber outright told people NOT to HARASS JAMES!!! ALSO acting as if james doesn’t have a very real documented history of STRAIGHT UP sending his fans to harass and threaten smaller creators, more notably women, trans, and bipoc creators. especially after he’s stolen typically very personal anecdotes so he could profit from them. so why can he do it but the second people are like “hey this guys an actual piece of shit.” and he can’t handle it suddenly people are trying to white knight his shit? like no he doesn’t get that. he doesn’t get that at all just because he couldn’t handle the consequences of his actions. 

what? were supposed to stay quiet about a man profiting off of other minorities because he wanted to be the spokesman for all gay people? people tried to solve this on a smaller, more private scales for YEARS and he kept doing it. it was clear that the giant public video was the ONLY way to get people to notice. HE WOULDVE GOTTEN AWAY WITH STEALING 87 FUCKING THOUSANDS WORTH OF DOLLARS. HE CANT HANDLE THE FACT HE CANT GET AWAY WITH IT. 

am i supposed to feel bad for the guy who basically threatened a trans woman with the police? i don’t care what anyone says, it’s so fucking obvious that he threatened jessie by implying he was getting the police involved in their conflict. what am i supposed to act like that didn’t happen? are we supposed to pretend like he didn’t glorify nazi’s and outright said that gay people made up a good chunk of the nazis? That he didnt say america joined ww2 bc they were jealous of the NAZIS. WHAT WOULD POSSESS YOU TO FUCKING SAY THAT. but then? He gives women (not even women most of the time, he misgenders nonbinary ppl constantly) shit for writing mlm. are we supposed to act like he doesn’t straight-up sees himself superior and better than people of color and steals their works to put himself on a pedestal? Are we supposed to act like he didnt spit on our elders by saying “only the boring gays survived aids” like man! Fuck you! He BLANTANTLY MAKES UP HISTORY TO PUT HIMSELF ON A PEDESTAL!! HE ACTIVELY TRIED TO REWRITE LGBT HISTORY TO SUIT HIS FUCKED UP NARRATIVES!

yes this sucks ! no one deserves this but no one should be making him a martyr. Thats what he fucking WANTS! He wants to be immortalized as a victim!! (again, supposedly, it was reported hes alive but its not confirmed).

The shit he got isnt near the amount of fucking callous behavior hes done again and again. Again, to drill this point, EVEN IF HE DIDNT CALL THE POLICE HE THREATENED A TRANS WOMAN INTO THINKING HE DID!!! The fact he tried to use a head injury to justify years of the outright ghoulish shit fucking astounds me. Why the fuck did anyone in his life thought it was a good idea to let him TRY to come back. in the end, he had options. he didn’t need to try to make a comeback. HE DIDNT NEED TO FUCKING LIE OR IGNORE THE SHIT HE WAS CALLED OUT ON the reality is, he wanted to come back thinking he could shove it under the rug, was told that no dude, you’re not allowed to be a youtuber anymore. you’re done. you need to move on and went full nuclear. it’s not on anyone’s hands but his own. HES BEEN DOING THIS TO HIMSELF!! But nah man we cant call his shit out bc hell may or may not kill himself. Fuck the other minorities who have the same issues but worse and sometimes BECAUSE of him. This is going to SUCKKKK so bad when other ppl, specifically white gays, are going to weaponize this shit to get away with their stuff.

#warning: do not read this post if you want me to be nice to james somerton. i am extremely mean in this post. #before anyone accuses me of shit i legit never contacted him myself or anyone involved. i am someone who witnessed this behavior repeatedly #again. i hope hes alive and well. the fact is him lying about this WOULD BE THE IDEAL SITUATION. BC NO ONE SHOULD GO THROUGH THAT. but. #he HAS to forever be the victim in his eyes. attempting doesnt automatically mean youre free of sin. #its just terrible to see that regardless whether or not he did do it #its very clear his attempts to run away from his consequences are working on some people #we need to acknowledge that if your shitty ex friend can weaponize a threat to kill themselves #so can this internet person after being called out for horrendous shit #like what was the alterative? what were people supposed to fucking do? be nice about it? #yeah as if poc and trans women arent historically given shit for being 'too mean' about wanting justice. #this isnt just the plagiarism this is the fact a white dude has been parading himself as THE speaker for the gays(tm) but has been using hi #gayness to shield himself from his misogyny racism transphobia and antisemitism #its very clear regardless this means that ppl r going to side with him and then give him benefit of doubt #if you cant handle the heat stay out of the fucking kitchen dude. this is the consequences of your fucking actions. #hes a disgusting person who cant handle being told no so hes going to drag everyone down with him #like. idk this entire situation is frustrating to me. #its also frustrating ppl trying to be moral abt it like 'see! i knew this was bad all along!' no you didnt. shut it. #for the record im like mainly talking abt twit watching those spineless uwu cutesy ppl basically saying hes done noting wrong #oh and also alt righters who are clearly weaponinizing this where u know they wouldnt give a shit if a right ytber did this. #james somerton #idk might delete this later its just. ugh...

Me at my food service job when the customer gets mad I won't commit a health code violation for them.

#I've got some stories let me tell you #today I had a woman demand a refund after she spilled her food on herself #or in 2020 when a guy accused me of lying about the existence of the pandemic when I told him the dining room was closed #or the nepo baby who never had a real job not given to him by his daddy. he was a nightmare to train and ended up fired after like a week

the irony of “canon jiang cheng” losers insisting that jc is inherently a terrible/abusive/toxic/whatever nonsense person and then collapsing in a dead faint at the suggestion that sometimes wwx made bad choices or choices that hurt people

“writing jiang cheng as a better person always comes at the expense of making wwx a WORSE person!! they can never build up their own favorite character without acting as if MINE is HORRIBLE”

nah babe you’ve just been doing that to jiang cheng for so long that your perception of both of them has become so warped you can’t even recognize canonical actions of your own blorbo anymore. wwx DID pull some shitty and selfish shit, and he DID shut people out and break promises.

he’s not just your poor widdle sweet victim. he has agency, and he used that agency to make decisions that hurt people.

the insistence that wwx is perfect and can do no wrong does injustice to both of their characters.

#moi #salt is salt #mdzs talk #wei wuxian #jiang cheng #and then they say shit that is explicitly untrue #like ‘jc kicked out wwx because he didn’t want to repay his debts!!’ #like first of all: what debt. #the one that **wwx specifically** incurred? #second: jc didn’t kick him out. wwx rather famously defected. #like they’re really just out here lying about the book and demanding that other people believe it #and then accusing them of poor reading comprehension or being delusional or ‘victim blaming’ when they refuse

do you ever think about right after v kisses kerry how he says w dazed disbelief he wants this gorgeous moment to last forever to a dying man and johnny’s remark about ‘kerry never did get it. only one thing worse than unfulfilled dreams— dreams that come true’ and how quietly gutted he sounds and then you think about how how kerry’s always wanted to get with johnny and how kerry only romances male v because it unconsciously or not fits into that fifty year old want for johnny or do you do yo u… do you

#cp 2077 #johnny silverhand #kerry eurodyne #silverdyne #silvervdyne #‘johnnys talking about Kerry’s career’ TO YOU!! #i mean. ugh hes self-centered enough that even after all of Kerry’s confessions and admittance he likes the spotlight #sure. johnny can be like. hes lying lol he hates being famous. #this is a dream come true turned bad. which is. missing the plot of kerry exorcism of johnnys ghost #but truly kerry doesnt hate being famous #i think he hates certain parts but he likes people hearing him sing he likes the reach #and its far enough in the plot johnny has some empathy #and hes self centered but hes not stupid #and THEN taking into account those cut lines after v fucks kerry. oooooh boy. #if johnnys being self-centered its because his line is referring to himself because how long has HE been waiting to kiss kerry #and how horrible is this dream finally realized #as an engram in another mans body #anyway call me Pepe Silvia the way im making these baseless accusations and connections #im very close to being finished w my dark matter rewrite and replaying every iteration of the talk w kerry #made me feel things……..

now that I'm done imagining a jar of peanut butter, can I just say that I love that Shane and Ryan have shifted away from traditional true crime to just shootin' the shit about weird-ass mysteries?

I always liked the "let's talk about weird mysteries" aspect of buzzfeed unsolved, but being real with you, I'm uncomfortable with true crime and the culture surrounding it. like... as someone who lost a loved one to a violent (and temporarily unsolved) crime, I've seen firsthand how internet theorizing can make a traumatizing time even harder and like. it's fucking rough, man.

I get that it makes money and all (which... is a whole other can of worms) but when you view human suffering as entertainment, it's so easy to forget about the real people who will actually be affected by what's put out there on the internet.

so I'm happy that Shane and Ryan seem to be leaning a lot more into "wow, some unhinged shit happened! how fucked up is that?" on mystery files. more of this, please!!

#watcher #mystery files #also like... anyone can make money off true crime if they're charismatic enough #which means that often those narratives end up mirroring real-life prejudices #I remember when my friend died people online were accusing his wife of doing it #solely because she was an immigrant #people kept talking about her shady accent and how she probably married him for his money and to get a green card or whatever #and how her wording was sometimes confusing so she must be lying #what money??? number one #she was ESL number two #but also this woman literally watched her husband bleed out and people all over the world were accusing her of murdering him #they figured out what happened later (shocker she was telling the truth the whole time) but it was so heartbreaking to watch #I hate that people feel entitled to the worst moments of strangers' lives y'know? #and to make MONEY off that... #bruh if someone ever tries to fucking make money off my murder while putting on makeup or whatever #I will haunt the fuck out of them #I don't even know if I believe in curses but I'll find a fucking way

my dad walked by and called my imra creepy 😭😭

#he then asked if she was a political caricature??? #and accused me of lying to him when i was like ???? no??? she's a comic book character??? #getting throw backs to when he asked me if vril dox ii was jesus christ #man don't know what he's talking about

you know … putting myself in lana’s shoes it really is unfair that she acts bat shit crazy, finds out it’s because some weird supernatural/kryptonite bs and then they fix it and they explain to her what happened etc etc but whenever clark starts acting insane for the same reasons (red kryptonite, silver kryptonite, etc.) they can’t tell her wtf his problem is so she’s just supposed to accept her boyfriend just loses his shit sometimes in a very scary way

like that’s not fair 😀

#smallville #clark kent #chloe sullivan #lana lang #clana #also them accusing lex and him having no idea what’s going on #is lowk so hilarious everybody keeps yelling at him #and he’s like #lol whut🤠 #unless he’s lying i can’t tell #but i don’t think he is #bc he’ll help bc he’s obsessed with lana #like the rest of smallville #like clark literally just choked her out #and she’s just gonna have to move on with her life like what #clark is gonna be SICK when he finds out what he did #omfg

usually i'm a post-milagro IVF arc truther but sometimes i feel like the whole process started around alpha and scully was waiting for her results and waiting to ask him...like her energy in that episode is of a wild animal waiting to mate and kill

#she is so anxious and territorial #and it has a slightly different energy from other scully jealousy episodes #like it is still protective as she usually is because i think she does interpret karin as lying to him or trying to get something from him #but she doesn't really have...reason to believe that #like she doesn't have as much cause as she usually does when she gets like that #so it's very speared by the tensions and emotions of s6 in general #also she gets more wound up generally when she feels left out of something in his life #like him having this whole relationship to this woman that she had never heard of despite that he's been communicating with her regularly #alpha #txf.txt #let scully defend her territory! #SHE ACCUSED THAT DOG LADY OF BEING A MURDERERRRR JUST FOR AOL INSTANT MESSAGING MULDER SKDJGKL

I understand why they approached it like they did but man I think Mike and Audrey are way too generous in their assessment of Jamie Oliver. IMO that dude is functionally a grifter, it’s just that the product he’s selling is TV rather than a supplement.

#maintence phase #this isn’t really a criticism of Mike and Audrey #I get it #it’s a bad look for even minor public figure to accuse someone of lying about their feelings #like #until things get really out of control you can’t prove it #but I call bullshit on the idea that he cares about kids or school lunches or poor people #that’s a front that allows him and his audience to sneer and gawk without guilt

My question is, how is Jesper going to find out about Wylan’s father? Will they use the scene from the books and have Kaz reveal it to the crows before the mission? Or is Jesper going to find out a different way?

#Six of crows #Shadow and bone #SOC #Wesper #I think Jesper's gonna be pissed #not for long #but Wylan literally accused him of hiding who he was bc of his powers #all while lying about teaching himself chemistry #like jesper will get it #but i feel like next season they're gonna be fighting #(again) #like if Wylan tells Jesper how bad his father is Jesper would never let them use Wylan as a hostage #and he cant be let in on the plan #so we can get the angsty moment where Jesper thinks hes dead #bc you know theyre gonna do that #and its gonna hurt even more with them being together already #also kaz u bastard #both if he outs Wylan as a Van Eck #and if he tricks jesper

It's my mother's birthday and all I can think of is all the ways she traumatized me growing up.

#There Was the Year She said I ruined her BDay Because I Came out as Bi #There's The One Time I tried to Tell Her I was NB and She Scoffed at Me #There's the Time She Threatened to Report me to the Police and Make Sure I Could Never Have Animals Again #Because Our Ferret's Water Bottle was Broken and I Didnt Know Until She Screamed at Me #When I was 12 She Said I Ruined Her Life by Being Born #When I Cut Myself and She Found Out She Made me Sit with Her and Plan What to do WHEN not IF she Found My Body #When I Tried to Kill Myself She Made it All About Her #I Did Choir for One Year and Stopped Because She Never Came to Concerts and Acted Like it was the Biggest Chore to Even Come Get Me #The Time She Accused me of Lying to my Fiance About Being Abused Because He Told Her I Have Panic Attacks When She Yells #All the Times I had to Be her Personal Therapist For Her Love Life #She Likes to Make Me Do Karaoke to Show Me Off #She Refused to Help Me Get a License #When I Told Her I Wanted to Live with Dad She Said My Bros Would Come With and theyd Never See Her Again #She Constantly Badmouthed Him Wherever She Could #Made Me Mad At Him Because He Wouldnt Be at My Birthday Parties (because Military) and Try to Make it Seem #Like He Wasnt There on Purpose #Would Refuse to Help Me with School and then Berated me for Failing #When I DID Ask for Help She Would Do it All then Yell at Me for Making Her Do it #Constantly Compared me to My Older Siblings Who I Didnt Even Know Yet and Made me Resent Them #I Took Care of My Brothers Growing Up. Not Her. But she Acts Like that Never Happened #A Bunch of Other Shit I Cant Even List #I Was Her Doll. Her Mini-Her. And Because of That my Bros Got it a Lot Worse #Anyway I have to See Her Today and I want to KMS #alex has the floor #tw: suicide #tw: abuse

Jaania's "all I've ever known from you is manipulation" is even more when you think about what Alexander Saga era Warlic was like

like, the intensely traumatised teenager who used bullying as a coping mechanism because he'd never known anything else and said things like "Welcome. I am the great and powerful Warlic." with complete sincerity? That's your master manipulator? Him?

he was a pretty unpleasant person to be around at that point in time, sure, but also he was like two minutes of silence away from feelings vomiting at all times. The closest he got to being capable of manipulation was taunting, I'm pretty sure, and it wasn't even good taunting

#Dragonfable #Like. Jaania. If you want to yell at him about what he was like when you were younger #there is a LAUNDRY LIST of things you could choose from #the bullying. the arrogance. the mightier-than-thou ego. #the treating you more like a prize to be won in his competitions with Alex than a person he wanted to get to know #but manipulation is not on that list #I got reminded that Jaania accused Warlic of gaslighting hey spymaster into thinking he experienced a fake murder attempt #and I'm just. Ma'am he's not even good at LYING

parents exist to take u on trips to guilt town 🚦🚏🚗

#i’ve refrained from venting here as much as possible but ​today has been so bad #my whole life has been them treating me like dirt and me excusing it with ‘well they’re going through a lot’ #my dad accused me of neglecting the dogs as soon as they got home today #when i’ve been getting up every single day at the same time to feed them and refill their waters #but because he didn’t see me on the camera on the side of the house that means i didn’t do it?? and i could have killed one of them?? #but i explained that i don’t feed him in an area the camera can see and i used a different bowl for water #bc the bowl they left me with was mossy and gross #but he says i’m lying and he can’t trust me and that he doesn’t ask much of me and ??? #it’s just so mean. i didn’t do anything wrong. i know i didn’t. i don’t deserve to be yelled at #it’s like whiplash because last week they said i was perfect and i did a good job #they should invent parents that are normal and kind and say nice things and don’t make their daughter cry 👍 #anyways.txt #delete later

[lord-squiggletits]

pharma really is such an interesting case. one thing i’ve always felt with pharma is that he absolutely doesn’t want consequences. and facing up to it requires a lot of looking at and showing people what he’s done and you know. the consequences. i mean hell he’d rather start a plague than say “hey i got coerced into doing a very bad thing by the djd”

I do understand what you mean about Pharma not wanting to face consequences, but on the other hand, I kind of understand why Pharma made a plague rather than admit to medical malpractice/murder? Because like, the thing that I don't see brought up often enough with regards to Pharma is that blackmail... is blackmail. Like, as someone who's unfortunately been on the receiving end of blackmail, the entire point of blackmailing someone is that you corner them into doing bad things by convincing them that they CAN'T turn to an authority figure to ask for help. Like, the person doing the blackmailing generally convinces the person who's getting blackmailed that if they try to reach out for help, the law/authorities/etc either won't care about their predicament or will punish them for the bad thing they did that they're getting blackmailed about.

I kind of feel like (and this isn't an attack on you, just a commentary about the nature of blackmail) when someone like Ratchet looks at Pharma and says "but you could've called for help or shut down the clinic or anything!", it kind of ignores the fact that...... when you're being blackmailed you're fucking terrified, and people who are terrified generally don't jump to the most rational, safe solutions possible? When you add in the fact that Pharma was blackmailed by Tarn of the DJD, notorious hater of Autobots and fanatic leader of a torture club, it's not hard to imagine that Pharma was both afraid and in pain (or threat of pain) while at Delphi and thus wouldn't be thinking straight about it.

I don't know, like. Yeah, on one hand Pharma made a plague and killed a bunch of people to try and cover up his crimes and maintain his career. But he didn't just do it for ego related reasons, he was also almost certainly facing threats of torture and death.

#squiggle answers #pharma apologism #i think i'm biased on this issue so anyone can come in here and add their thoughts or correct me #i guess it just bothers me because like. i've kind of been in that situation (not as serious as pharma's) where i didn't ask for help #and when i got in trouble for not asking for help afterwards and instead choosing to lie or go behind someone's back or whatever #it was generally bc i was more afraid of punishment by The People In Charge #than i was afraid of lying or breaking the rules or doing other bad things #and when i got accused (by the people in charge) of seeing myself as above the rules or thinking i was better/smarter than them #it always pissed me off because i was like. bro i didn't lie to you for fun and games i lied to you because i was afraid #that if i asked you for help you would just shun me or get pissed off at me and punish me #also re: the blackmail i was a victim of. the thing about that is it was over something ultimately petty (stupid internet drama) #and i was PROBABLY never in any real danger but like. the issue was that i FELT like i was in danger #fear is powerful. fear of being threatened at any time or having the things you care about taken away is especially powerful #i had nightmares p much once a week for months during the ordeal and still sometimes do now #like idk i really am biased on this matter but like. just bc pharma made the plague to cover up his crimes #doesn't mean that that's the ONLY reason is what i'm saying #when ppl lie and cover up things about that it's not just about ego but about dumb animal terror #and i mean. to get back to the pharma apologism brand. ratchet KNEW pharma was being blackmailed but he fucking ditched him anyways #this is the guy who was supposed to be his bestie of millions of years and he fucking told pharma he was dead to him #and that's the guy who pharma thought would UNDERSTAND. imagine what he thought other autobots would think of him #also i have a theory that tarn probably psychologically tortured pharma by telling him the autobots would just lock him up for his crimes #as a way to get pharma to not tell anyone and keep supplying him cogs. because you know. blackmail
