I like it here because I like speaking into the void

the mods have linked charities for sexual + domestic abuse victims and for lgbtq+ people which i will also link here.
i wanted to write up something about my experience in communities involving shayy, and how im feeling about the terrible things they have done. i found shayy somewhere around this time in 2021. 2021 was easily the worst year in my entire life, where i had a very debilitating breakdown in august that had been coming for around a few months, and that my mental state hasnt really recovered from since. even before this i was extremely isolated because of my disability and mental illnesses that caused me to basically not talk to anyone since i was a young child. i found a video of a speedrun shayy had done of deltarune chapter 2. i was interested in deltarune as it had basically just released and the speedrun interested me a lot. i was never really into speedrunning before this and i wanted to try it out for myself. i joined the deltarune speedrunning community because i couldnt figure out how to do a now very outdated strat. joining this server was probably the most impactful decision i made in my life. i started talking more in the server because of the welcoming environment it had and i eventually joined shayys discord server after being gifted a sub, and also the undertale speedrunning server at some point. i originally just joined shayys server because i wanted to join their sub only minecraft server, but i did stick around for other things and it became an extremely important community to me. as i mentioned earlier before i joined these communities i had basically no interaction with anybody for a very long time of my life and was extremely lonely. joining them was the first time i actually talked with people and it gave me something actually valuable in my life. i grew a lot as a person being in shayys server as i was only 14 years old when i joined, and it was the first time i got the opportunity to interact with people freely in such a long time. even now it is still basically impossible for me to make friends with people irl, with my heavy social anxiety, selective mutism and not being in school / work. i started making friends after being in the server for a while, some of them i unfortunately havent talked to in a long time, and some i still talk to today. ive been a part of multiple friend servers because of frog family, and while some of them have fallen apart or ive left for personal reasons, im really grateful for all of them and i currently have a circle of friends i appreciate a lot. theres so much i could say about my experiences with frog family but im generally just writing this section as a thank you to the friends ive made being there, and the moderators that helped keep them functioning. it is also not to make the current situation about me and how hurt i am, i just want to show appreciation to what the community has been. now to talk about the document, shayys actions are extremely disgusting and im still trying to process the fact that this has been going on for basically the entire time ive been in the community. up until now me and many people have seen their server as a safe space (especially for queer and neurodivergent people) and its horrifying to know that they have been taking advantage of and assaulting people. every single person that ive interacted with mentioned in the document is a wonderful person and a few i would say are friends.if there are any victims of shayy reading this, i am extremely sorry to hear the terrible things that you have gone through and i hope youre in a better place now. i also want to thank the moderators and everyone who worked on the document for your work on respectfully adressing the situation while getting so many insulting comments on the original post. i also do hope thSat shayy does receive any help they need and betters themself as a person. i was never at all a close friend of theirs but i did have good interactions with them and i respected them a lot. i am still very glad to know that they have been banned from the undertale and deltarune speedrunning communities, and i hope i never see them ever again. even though shayys community wont exist anymore, the relationships that youve made there are still real. if you dont have me added and want to stay in contant feel free to add me on discord (confused_coder). if you are a current victim of abuse reading this, i really hope that you can escape your situation, and please stay connected to the good people around you as much as possible. abusers have the most power when their victims are isolated so please reach out to someone. for help if possible

I also find a surprising amount of times to say “[person/character] isn’t a masochist they just want to see what their body can take” if that counts too

Chat I think I picked up yet another speaking thing from Markiplier (“what do you mean” much more often than necessary)

I have the urge to try to play different Unus Annus songs on the violin
November 15, 2025 at 4:36 AM
riverthenb.bsky.social
I never think of the Friend Inside Me meme when the actual song is referenced because my brain just immediately goes to Digging Our Friend A Grave from Unus Annus

Nice merch idea, Ethan. To be fair, it does feel very Unus Annus

I agree with Ethan it’s really funny that Mark has a lot of money and sometimes just records in a bathtub

I hope at some point we get a video of the coffin opening and Unus and Annus getting out, stretching, complaining about each other, and then they get back in and close the coffin

I’d love to do video essays every now and then but also I’m scared of doing them. What if I use something horribly outdated or am just straight up wrong

Extremely funny for Toby to follow up on the previous post with this like 10 hours later

My friend said this affectionately as a joke and perhaps it doesn't have a deep meaning. They liked the game.

I haven’t seen a single non vampire Halloween Tenna. I love it
riverthenb.bsky.social Captain River @riverthenb.bsky.social · 21d
I’m happy that all the Tenna fans have just silently agreed that he’d be a great vampire. That’s so correct

I was looking through the Undertale alarm clock dialogue and I love Mettaton’s warnings. It sounds like he’s trying to sell me Happy Fun Ball’s holiday sibling

It’s been over two years since the Iron Lung trailer. This means it’s been two years since I got off an airplane, got onto my phone, and started freaking out because it dropped while I was on the plane

I choose to believe that this is the plot of the game so far. It certainly is not. But I choose to believe it is

The Snapcube real time fandubs are fun for me because most of the time I don’t know the story of the game at all so I’m very vaguely figuring it out through the dub. I’m trying to figure out what the heck is going on in Kingdom Hearts right now

The Toriel apron comes with a little 72 Uses For Snails book. It’s really fun. 10/10
