I for one think the symbiotic relationship between Tumblr and AO3 is beautiful
Like how we never left the desert, he'll never leave the sunflowers

I know we're all freaking out about the current drama, mainly because we haven't really had drama before. However, this does not mean its over, our fandom is dead, and we're all doomed.
This is a classic case of immature behavior. Iskall's response, in MY OPINION, was very immature. He directed hate towards the hermits, who were just being responsible in managing a family friendly youtube server (and who were also willing to listen to his side). If he hadn't made a response, there would have been no issues within the community at all. The hermits handled it in the same way any business would. If anything, they could've waited a bit to announce his resignation from the server.
That's not the situation I want to talk about though. So many communities have fallen due to drama between creators. However, we do not have to fall that way. All we have to do is remember that people are not perfect. The hermits could've handled the situation better, but they also aren't gods. They are public figures in a sticky situation.
Don't hate guys. Don't send death threats. The drama isn't ours. Keep making fan content as usual. Let's show the world that we can get through a youtube controversy.
It doesn't have to end with us.
Stay strong guys
(tagging trafficblr & VH too bc the fandoms overlap)

The BAMboozlers might be my favorite team this season, maybe in the entire life series tbh depending on how they end, and I think the main reason for it is how ride or die they all are with each other.
Jimmy wants to be BAM themed, Scar and Lizzie embrace it. Soon enough they're all enthusiastically saying BAM to each other when they start the session.
Scar suggests the BAMbunker offhandedly, Jimmy builds it a few sessions later.
Jimmy needs a kill, Lizzie builds a creeper spawner to get him TNT and eggs, risks her life to get him suspicious stew to keep him alive, and uses herself as bait against her own husband for his sake.
Scar trades a mace for friendship with the Spanners, asks about Grian's grudge against Jimmy, and offers the mace back so that they can all be friends.
When the Quizbot shows up, Lizzie dedicates herself to building an ender pearl stasis chamber so they can all summon each other and help on questions.
Jimmy accidentally hits Lizzie, leading to her death, and feels awful. She lets it go instantly in favor of protecting the both of them from the Warden.
Lizzie and Jimmy go red, Scar offers to go red himself without hesitation so that they can go on murder sprees together.
They all use the BAM HQ together routinely, calling meetings when anything massive changes to keep each other informed, and lean into their theming more than any other group has this season with their matching skins and rollercoasters.
They're also together all the time and constantly trust and build each other up, which is honestly refreshing to see with how toxic and faithless most if not all of the other groups have been to each other.
