  3. Quick update on the Wilbur drama:

    Wilbur's band mates from Lovejoy (Ash Kabosu, Joe Goldsmith, and Mark Boardman) have not said anything at all relating to the current situation, and I think it's mainly because Wilbur is the one that started the band and asked the other members if they wanted to be apart of it, and the band is their only form of income at the moment, so if they were to speak out about any of this, no matter how they side, they would lose money. if they side with Wilbur, they'd probably lose more fans than they already have (due to what Wilbur did to Shelby). But if they side with Shelby, then I think Wilbur would end up kicking them out of the band. either that, or they would kick Wilbur out, somehow.

    I also think it's because they were the ones who probably spent the most amount of time around Wilbur, so they're probably going to need a while to process everything and make sense of things, and, who knows? maybe they sent their support out to Shelby in private? It seems a lot more genuine that way, in my opinion, because there have been people who are super homophobic and transphobic (Shelby is not transgender, I'm just making a point here) and they act that way publicly, and they are "supporting" Shelby on social media,and even Shelby has pointed out that they're probably just doing it for publicity, but she still appreciated their support.

    I know that Ash doesn't ever audibly speak on social media/during concerts and that he's just a generally very quiet person, and I've only ever seen him post on Twitter a few times, but I could've been wrong about that part.

    But yeah, that's my thoughts on this so far, I'll continue to update this,even if no one is actually reading these/invested in the situation, mainly because it's kind of become my new hyper fixation, and it's also really important to me.

      Woah. That’s crazy.

      yeah. it's insane, because it doesn't really seem like something that Wilbur would do, but at the same time... going back to previous like, Twitch streams and stuff, seeing how he acted, when he was aggressive towards people, people would see it as funny as the time, but looking back, it's scary. we thought that him being aggressive was funny.

  4. the following SU contains mentions of domestic and sexual abuse, along with death threats. if any these topics make you uncomfortable in any way, please do not hesitate to stop reading, I promise I will not be offended.

    for those of you who aren't already aware, a twitch streamer and musician known by the name Wilbur Soot, his real name William Patrick Gold, is someone who i enjoyed watching and listening to. he was a member of the dream smp (a Minecraft (RP?) platform involving Dream and many other twitch streamers), started a band called Lovejoy, and was previously dating another twitch streamer named Shubble (Shelby).

    Shelby has mentioned in a recent past stream that her ex-boyfriend (and she doesn't state specifically who it is, either) would bite her multiple times and hurt her every day even when she would say the safe word that the two of them agreed on in order to revoke consent. and instead of stopping, he would just bite down harder. she said that, since her ex would leave bruises on her arms from biting, that he would bite her legs so that she "wouldn't look abused." although the name isn't explicitly stated, it became increasingly obvious that Shelby was talking about Wilbur Soot. Shelby also mentioned that her first ex-boyfriend (not Wilbur) sexually assaulted her, and that Wilbur would pin her to the bed and challenge her to fight back, and she couldn't. she said that Wilbur already knew about her experience of being sexually assaulted, and he completely abused that knowledge.

    Wilbur responded to Shelby publicly on X (previously known as Twitter) with a (not very good, according to a lot of people) apology, but doesn't specifically mention Shelby by name. the majority of the comments is just people hating on him and basically publicly shaming him. many people even sent him death threats/wishes. some of Wilbur's closest friends, including TommyInnit and Tubbo, have cut ties with Wilbur due to this.

    Wilbur has left the majority, if not all, of his socials, including his discord servers. many of the discord mods for these servers have changed their status(s?) to something along the lines of "screw Wilbur. support victims" or "#SuppostShelbySquad"

    truly think I should make it known that I do not in any way, shape, or form support domestic abuse or sexual violence, or abuse/violence or any kind, for that matter. I support Shelby for being brave enough to come forward about this topic. that being said, ialso support Wilbur solely for his music and maybe his twitch streams (even though he hasn't streamed since October of 2023). however, I do not support his actions and what he did to Shelby. what he did is not okay. it never will be. Thank you for reading this. I needed to get it out of my system.

    if you or anyone you know is struggling with abuse, please reach out to someone for help. I don't remember the numbers for the hotlines, so once I find them, I'll edit this SU, or just comment on it.

     

  5. my criminal justice teacher: "I'm tired of the city's local newspaper making public schools pay to get online access to the news stories, so i made it where all of you have access to the entire newspaper."

    a boy in my class: "Is this a pirating site?"

    teacher: *immediately answers* "yes. So-" *continues talking*

    pretty sure he was joking though...

    at least, i hope so-

      Meh, I’ve been told and taught to pirate research papers before, so a newspaper pirate site seems normal.

    WITH A HEART STICKERRRRR

    AJYFCGTBJNONI

    EEHEEHEHEEEEE

    the only reason I got one wrong was because I had to reword a question to leave it open-ended and I had like a bias thingy init on accident

    the original question was "Due to the increase in violent dog attacks, do you think that vicious pitbulls should be banned for public safety?"

    and then I put "Do you think that pitbulls should be banned (for public safety)?"

    BUT YEAH I DID A GOOD JOB THIS IS MY HIGHEST GRADE ON A MATH TEST FOR MY ENTIRE JUNIOR YEAR LETS GOOO

      *hhhuuugs* todays been hard for me too, we can get through it together

  13. sorry for all the SUs, but I have a genuine question-

    so, the seating chart in my math class is in groups of four people, right?

    and we have warm-up questions that review the things we worked on the day before

    and most of the time I end up forgetting basically everything from the day before, a lot of times, more than that

    and the groups of four people will get randomly chosen to answer the warm-up questions on the board, and you only get a free homework pass if at least three out of the four questions get answered by that group

    is it normal to have an anxiety attack when your group gets called on as a backup group in case the other group doesn't get at least three questions answered (and they don't) and your group has two people gone, and the only questions left to be answered are the two that you forgot how to do?

    like, I felt so bad that the only other person who was in my group had to go up to the whiteboard and answer the last two by himself, and he ended up getting both of them wrong anyway

    I feel like he must have been so embarrassed, but I mean, I was too. and I didn't even go up to the board. am I just selfish? I was literally so embarrassed that I didn't know the answer, but I didn't even go up to the board, so I feel like I was being selfish, but I don't really know
