Am I shitty for being super angry at Sai (and multiple others in her circle) for indulging Hearts, giving them attention and positive reinforcement, just because Hearts was willing to shit on people she has a dumb selfish grudge against? They were weirdly invasive about personal/private shit and then Sai&Co just barrelled in and encouraged it and I think that was harmful to Heart's... issues. While others weren't perfect either i think what she did was actively harmful and it also bothers me that she's just trying to ignore it ever happened

No you aren't. Not in thd slightest.

Sai is monumentally inattentive and monumentally spiteful. Willing to indulge any toxic idea that approximates what she wants to hear (see: the Venezuela gang argument.)

Hearts is willing to say anything that gives them attention.

Profoundly toxic ship.

It was so obvious Roux and Envy were the same person I thought they literally just like, were. Unambiguously, the same person, with two/three different blogs for some reason. Just as someone who noticed them posting in similar tags I did from time to time, never really having meaningful interaction with either. The surprise for me that they allegedly """weren't."""

Sai interacted with Hearts pretending to be Roux and Envy quite a bit, both on tumblr and it seems also in her discord, if memory serves even once in a VC at least accourdjng to Hearts-- and apparently never clued in once. If that was because Sai is legitimately that gormless or chose not to notice, couldn't say.

But if Sai ever attempts to claim again that she doesn't just clap like a seal when she hears the words in the order that best pleases the confirmation bias gremlin in her head-- like.

She really just wants to "win." Win at whatever. Win at being ex friends with Ant and Crim. Win at tumblr slap fights. Win at twitter bloodsports. Win at being wrong louder, harder, faster better than whatever the competing point of view is. So.

Match made in hell with those two EXXXAAACCTTTLYYY YYYAAASS-ing each other into a frenzy.

I'm actually fairly certain the person who started Ant's Spousegate was Hearts, btw. And I don't have any proof of this part since clearly many a post was deleted when I started looking into it but, let's just say I wouldnt be surprised if Hearts was not just the person who initially accused Ant of misgendering his wife, but also the one who leaked the screenshots online of others repeating that claim in Sai's discord.

Who you are behind the blog is a concern, but the concern isn't the internet knowing who you are behind the usernames.

The concern is the person behind the screen, behind this blog, the rest of them, is clearly an individual who should not be engaging in this community. Genuinely, from a place of compassion, you clearly did not understand what you were signing up for. You do not have the fortitude for any level of push-back, of people talking, of people remembering.

Whether you are Hearts or Not is irrelevant, this topic is CLEARLY getting to you. Whether the other blogs are you or not, it doesn't matter because clearly everything about this situation is effecting you on a deep rooted place.

You ping-pong the tone of your posts between exhaustion and irritation, sometimes something more akin to despair, at the drop of a hat.

You are not equipped mentally to deal with this side of the internet, with the drama, the pushback, the subject matter. This was a failed endeavor from the start, and from a place of compassion I genuinely hope you see that.

I can log off. I have other hobbies.

I appreciate the concern.

The entire reason why I am trying to take a break is that this is all very stupid, petty, and overblown.

Me getting out isn't going to help the other people who can't get out.

I might end up taking two months off and running the blog on queue for a while.

I just had someone try to spoil Digital Circus for me on the ask blog. That's the level of pettiness I'm dealing with.

But I doubt I'm the only one.

I know you're right. But what about you? What about Foxhound? What about the others who are tired of this bullshit?

Your whole post is horseshit lies and you know it.

You don't want to step away, you like the attention to much.

You don't want the conversation to stop, you want it to change so that you are the good one and the rest are the bad ones.

Quite frankly, and I say this full heartedly, you do not give a flying fuck about anyone but yourself and if they 'can get out'. You don't care, you keep dragging people in so you have more people involced why would you care if they can get out or not?

You don't care that others are tired of the drama, you want to perpetuate it because you enjoy being the center of attention. You wouldn't run either of these two 'confession blogs' and still talk about posting asks if you didn't.

You are not sorry that I got dragged into a mess I could easily have just ignored even with a flooded inbox, you are sorry I got dragged in and didn't agree with you to defend you. That i got just curious and annoyed enough by your antics to go digging and saw enough evidence to agree with the rest.

Your whole response is proving how self centered you are. You don't care, you are thriving off the attention and trying to twist it as some victimized bullshit that its everyone else who is crazy and you are the innocent one.

News flash, no one in this drama community is ignorant of what goes down in it. The fact you bring up TADC when others are getting far worse because of you shows the level of victim-shifting you are trying to do.

The people who want to stop talking about Hearts are actively being drawn in because you wont fucking leave them alone. Because you keep repeatedly flooding tags with your bullshit.

Because you are sitting here mocking me expressing genuine concern for your mental state by trying to flip it and claim actually you are the one concerned and its everyone else who is unhinged while also actively gloating about how you have no intentions to stop because no one else is, interacting with troll blogs specifically to garner yourself more attention, and actively engaging with a community you keep claiming you are trying to step away from.

So congrats, you can drop the fucking act Hearts. You are the center of attention again, enjoy it.

If you truly wanted to step away from this all you wouldnt constantly be stating your plans to do so then continue to respond, post, engage.

You wouldnt be running blogs dedicated to bringing this traffic directly to you.

You wojldnt flat out ignore what im saying to try and twist it into some bullshit victim complex to try and get everyone else listed as insane. And im only speaking in terms of these two blogs, none of the other unhinged bullshit being pulled on any of the others.

I understand functionally what the scene is meant to be ya know. The brother cares so huggy muggy much about his sister he's willing to go above and beyond and sewing is something that shows paitents and care

But not only is it incredibly hamfisted which is the worst issue it annihilates what flimsy world building there is, there a spacer thats something ya find out what is I presume early on (bad writing if ya don't) basically a space drifter a hobo in SPAAAACE yet nah they need their crafting hobbies HOW ELSE WILL YOU KNOW THEY ARE DEEP AN THEY GOT OLD SOULS but that brings up that they have a fucking surplus of material to fuck round with cause either they don't have a washing device and make many tampons wasteful and despose of them into space or they do and see reusable tampons and it wouldn't be a skill they'd keep up with. Truely fuckin bizarre

But like why doesn't the sister just sew them herself? She's this Uber talented lady, and Lily keeps saying into the void is a post apocalypse where people are self-sufficient. She also says it only takes like two stitches so, super easy (side note, I think it'd be more complicated than that). Shouldn't the sister be able to do it herself? There could at least be a story behind why she doesn't.

Like I get she wants him to be a great guy who isn't squeamish around periods, like alot of Cis men are but like, he can still be that while not hand sewing every pad and tampon--they can at least share the task. Wouldn’t his sister want to help him since it's something she needs?

Idk, I just find it frustrating that she always makes these sibling relationships really one-sided, where one takes care of the other far more and loves them more, too. I mean, on the brother's character sheet, it says one of his favorite things is his sister. On hers, he's not in her list of favorite things. And she doesn't even do anything interesting with this dynamic because God forbid anyone argue with a loved one ever. :[

I have a better question for ya!

Why not reusable period pads?

Like its the future. Post apocalyptic but like in a low key way where everything seems just mostly fine? Like yeah humanity is stranded in the stars but there isn’t a town of three hundred people awaiting rescue by an ace star pilot from Lord Gigantic. Shit sucks we soldier on... with mushroom farms and matcha tea ig, oh how HARSH LIFE MUST BE!

You hit the nail on the head really, part of me feels like I must be going crazy because the way she writes makes it feel like she wants a human pet who can't do anything for themselves or a dolly that occasionally says basic affermations or she wants to be that ig

Why'd the spacing change?

"I see your pointing out the surface level things, is this because her writing is functional or good?"

Also the background color did you switch or reformat it afterwards to see a more realistic page count?

"Yes but how is the actual writing Silly?"

IT ISN'T VERY GOOD OKAY!

Like, they have a trailer home that one of the two drives around while the other bums around drinking coffee or tea and tells them fun facts. Thus far whats been described has been...nothing. Its crazy as someone who has been on many a road trip but the highlights of such a thing are, ya know highlights comforting a friend going through a tough time or stopping and seeing something really really dumb or cool, hell even a truck stop can be a highlight as you for whatever reason decide "Lets see who can find the weirdest thing to eat and then everyone tries a bite!" Or frankly just a bizzare conversation about lunch meat at a subway

The 54th game of Ispy or 20 Questions aren't what make the trip memorable or interesting those things are used to pass the drivers and to a lesser extent the passengers time before the invention of smart phones.

Normal. Siblings. Don't. Spoon. In. Bed. Lily.

I can only imagine how much she gets off on the idea of this character waking up with her brother's morning wood pressed up against her butt.

I had to say something about this, because YIKES!

Huh, this sounds awfully familiar.

Her source?

They happened, so Heated Rivalry had to be copying them and nothing else. 

Just ignore the fact that gay male hockey players have also gotten married within the last decade or that the Game Changer fanfiction pre-existed all of these marriages. 

The only couple who may have been married before 2016 is Julie Chu and Caroline Ouellette, since they never disclosed their actual anniversary. The only issue is that they didn’t make their relationship public until both had retired from Nationals, which was, YOU GUESSED IT, after 2016. (Specifically when they announced the birth of their daughter in 2017.)

Also, does anyone else remember Check, Please!? Was it also stealing from Sapphic Hockey stories in 2013? Please Lily, explain.

...

... okay fine, let's play ball.

It all started when they were going after ArtieceTB for how she reacted to Sai mocking her. I called them out on it on their Enby blog, which was not hard to find since they were defending Sai on that blog too at the time. The reason I did this was because I couldn't do Anon on their Envy blog. It was off at the time. Put a pin in that.

We went back and forth a bit over the ArtieceTB thing, as I pointed out how much of a hypocrite Envy was being. At that point, I think something clicked in their head that made them realize that by answering my ask, which had a link to the post on their Envy blog that I called them out on, they'd be found out. So they did a complete purge of my asks relating to their Envy blog, but not before copying the one with the link and pasting it in their Envy blog.

Now brace yourself, because this shows how stupid this person is. Because remember, at this point the Envy blog had Anon off. So answer me this.

How the hell did Enby paste my ask and post it anonymously if it was initially off on Envy's blog?

And if that's not enough, they were also stupid enough to copy the text "Anonymous Asked".

After my ask was "brought to Envy's attention", Anon was suddenly allowed on the Envy blog. Oh! And Enby had to temporarily change their name from critical-enby to enby-critical so "people wouldn't mix up their name with someone else's".

Now seeing them going from "We're not the same person, we just have similar usernames!" to "Oh! We're roommates and dating!" makes me want to fucking scream.

I went digging for this one to make sure it's true and yup. Wow. There it is. You weren't kidding. They copied over the "Anonymous asked:" and everything, just like you said.

One night I went down a rabbit hole and-- the total amount of blogs I found I can confirm with some confidence belonging to hearts is

23 blogs total.

Some deleted, some mostly inactive-- but all hearts.

Belonging to one of the three like, "characters" for lack of a better word for it hearts plays. Outside of the obvious shit that makes them very clearly the same person by conjecture, the near identical topics and opinions, the constant reblogging each other, you can daisy chain mistakes Hearts made connecting about 23 blogs together as all, more likely than not, the exact same person.

Here's a sampling:

Hearts forgor which blogs they already admited to running:

Hearts forgor who her """friends""" are. (Note: "Dog" is the name of the Roux/Enbycritical character. Each one of them has like, a million names. It's part of what makes showing these are all the same person so hard to demonstrate. Also, take note of the dates:

All three "characters" keep allegedly posting on each other's blogs/have access to each other's blogs. And live together/near each other. Literally the Miss Scribe special.

I was going to do a thing to prove it so this dumb nonesense is settled once and for all, and I still might, but life shit got in the way for now.

This isn't even the tip of the iceberg-- there's so much shit guys. Like Hearts isn't even a good Miss Scribe, they suck at this. I dug through 5 years of posts through all their socks and it was like slowly going mad while looking at an eldritch tome.

I've made all the evidence I gathered accessible to some trusted fellows, so someone else with more time might beat me to organizing the ungodly amount of screenshots I collected. Which is fine by me.

So a few things, being on tumblr.com isn't writing... anything actually what your doing is called procrastination and cheap dopamine... (yeah i know never said this wasn't a joke blog) if your writing at all which lets be honest once you finished the character cards your progress hit a wall and talking ABOUT writing is just as good

The second thing is:

Self Ask that started the "brainworms"

Third off:

Yeah girl, can't believe one of the Avatars teachers is a young girl of only 12 YEARS OLD!

(

Fourth off:

And just for a little insight into how her mind works, art she asked MO to make

Notice how the "absolute sweetheart who completely appreciates it" in each pair doesn't care about the other person's happiness.

Hm.

Like, at least in America, and I’m not sure if there are international equivalents so bear with me, but we have JCAHO: the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations. They help to set and standardize safety measures for mental health practices. The way that Iris would be expedited into the sun for violations of safety standards. An open flame?! Hot wax?! Both could be used to harm someone or someone’s self.

The scent is another thing, because generally, therapists are taught not to utilize heavy scents. Doesn’t matter if it’s perfume, hair/body care, or a candle, scents can trigger people. I used to work in a building that mandated no strong scents since some of our clients are children on the spectrum.

I just, ugh.

ALSO LIKE: WHO WANTS TO COME INTO AN OFFICE AND HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE SOMEONE COMMITTED SUICIDE BY A CANDLE?! HELLO HIPAA ID LIKE A MF W O R D.

- 🫧

i mean the candle could've been unscented buuuuut

I didn’t even catch that part, I was too caught up on a child therapist actively admitting she can’t do anything for her own patient and refusing to refer her to someone who’d actually??? Not just give up on her???

It’s just shitty writing, but damn. Guess she’s taking cues from Dr. Loomis’ playbook of child psychiatry.

To be fair, she framed what she said like “they see it that way, and I can see why they see it that way, and I can’t say that they’re wrong to see it that way, but I don’t see it that way myself.” Like. She’s not saying it is, she’s just saying others are not technically wrong to say it is—it’s stupid bullshit word lawyering on her part.
