Heartstopper

The only two that matter, frankly.

Who is Joe fucking now?

Hoping for more of this content

R2 Hopefully Kit

R2 is that you Bash?

Size difference.

Per the last thread. I don’t see how Saturday will be awkward. If anything it’ll be awkward for Bash. Joe and Kit play the main characters. They’ll be on that float or walk in front at the parade.

For anyone wondering how the Joe/Bash crowd are coping with the most recent kerfuffle, they're blaming Nick for "setting Joe up." Pretty sure Alanis Morissette wrote a song about this.

R8 What possessed him to comment? I don’t know, being directly mentioned, maybe?

R7 Yeah, the combination of Joe (and Kit) acting completely unbothered while Bash and Connor do…whatever the fuck they’re doing makes me think Joe and Kit will be fine and if anyone isn’t, it’ll be Bash.

R8 The strong urge to whack JoeBashCandies. How is OF Nick to be blamed here? He is infact being so decent and the only reason he even commented there was cause some dumbass decided to tag him.

R6 Feige Im begging you let Kit be Hulkling. The size difference is already perfect, and your not going to find better chemistry.

R11 Kit's too short for it to be perfect, but they can make him wear heels like RDJ I guess

R11 yeah that's easy

OF Nick is a hero. And he’s been good to Joe. InfiniteCandies is being a dick for blaming Nick.

I was young and stupid at 18/19.

Maybe Connor and Nick will hit it off. Despite Connor acting like a little bitch I don't think he's against a hot guy following him.

I see Bash is up at 2 AM reposting that good ol' slogan that he thought was enough to address the HP backlash. Does he think reposting the same thing over and over again is activism?

R17 Desperate times. He’s about to lose Connor too.

IMO Bash is the best looking of the bunch.

Yes, the ginger has been juicing, but he still comes across as fit/fat.

R19 Bash has no ass

R19 Y'all need to stop setting Bash up, we can all see that he has no ass and that his face is completely unbalanced between the weak jaw, oversized nose, and complete lack of top lip.

I wonder if Nick alerted Joe about that thread.

R22 I’d be shocked if he didn’t.

R22 Probably. I know Joe's posted a lot on IG since the breakup, but mostly been work things or when he's alone or not showing who he's with or stories that go away after 24 hours. Connor and Bash made it very obvious with all their shit that Joe's not part of the picture anymore. They deserve the comments, though Nick didn't

Bash reposting Connor's post again 5 hours later to make sure nobody missed his little trip roundup.

R25 tbf Instagram is absolutely fucked after its recent update. Can barely see the top line of people’s grids, posts from weeks ago at the top of tl. I’d be reposting shit too

R25 God hes losing this breakup so bad its embarrassing...

The DL'er who thought that Bash might start behaving a bit maturely after the comments incident, guess that won't be happening.

R28 you have no idea how much I want to hear the song he's going to write and obviously post

R29 what absolutely kills me is in addition to being more experienced and yet a worse actor than kit and Joe, older and yet less mature, richer and yet less successful, is that he’s had vocal lessons and still sounds like that while kit and will have quite nice voices and joes frankly couldn’t be any worse

R30 This is such a brutal way of laying it all out, but I can’t stop laughing.

R19 Idk why 'the ginger' is sending me.

R30 with the high caliber singers and song writers that are a part of Agatha we are probably going to find out about Joe's voice.

I hope Connor Jessup is getting some prime ass in this.

R34 maybe his posting the Crofts was a nod in thanks to them paying him a salary for companionship to their clearly deranged son

R33 is it a musical?

R34 the arse isn’t so prime tbh, the dick on the other hand…

R36 I’m not R33 but I also suspect there will be a strong musical element. Hopefully it’s not the whole show

R33 We know there will be a couple of songs. The Frozen songwriters who worked on WandaVision are back. Patti said Kathryn and her at least have songs.

The only thing that makes me think that Joe might not sing is that the casting notice for Wiccan didn't ask for people with musical abilities.

R40 Yeah he probably wont, but there is a chance.

R37. Dick pics?

Alice's writer friend that helped her with the scripts left this comment on Connor's post. Who does she expect to do the acting?

R42 He keeps getting these “older” comments.

If Connor and Bash want to have their 'lovefest' plastered everywhere, Joe should pull up like this on Saturday (with OF Nick).

Can someone confirm to me that Bash's sister's account is still around? Because if it is it looks like she blocked me for liking either Nick's reply or the comment defending Nick.

R45 Heights of pettiness if true. Someone get this grown woman a job.

R44 A pride kiss with Kit would literally destroy the internet forever. (it wont happen, but i can dream)

R45 can confirm Steph Ralley’s account is still active.

R48 Definitely blocked then, this is what I get. It's an account I only use to lurk and I've never left a single comment with it, so it's definitely the likes.

R45 Stop. That’s absolutely fucking hilarious, you didn’t even comment yourself?

R45 that is actually unhinged. She is not only unfortunate looking and unemployed, she’s also petty and a freak. Some things run in the family

R50 No, that'd be fucking weird. All I did was like 2 fucking comments.

R49 That family is so fucking weird. why was she even reading that thread

When you think that they can't be any more petty, Croft clan is always there to prove us wrong.

Everyone commenting 'cute couple' funny how Joe was erased so quickly. He's all over Bash's IG but no one seems to think they were/are together anymore.

That’s pretty much confirmation to me that Bash knows about Nick under Connor’s post, which makes his 5 hours later repost even funnier. What a freak.

I am going to make a guess that as we know for sure that Connor was lurking when OF Nick commented on that post. So maybe Connor sent that comment thread to their group chat and that's how Steph got to know about it.

Random, but all this shit and the slut story makes me wonder if Bash was pissy about Joe following some random guys on IG and actually called him that. Or accused him of cheating on him and then OF Nick thing happening makes him think he was right since I can't imagine why his family is so freaking pressed about this random guy Joe met up with after a breakup.

Btw Joe doesn't follow his sister. I know someone said he was still following before.

Steph was the only one that blocked me by the way, Connor and Bash still show up for me. I guess they need all of the followers they can get. I really want to know if it was one specific like or both combined that set her off.

R59 well given shes gone full psycho she probably blocked him.

Bash acting extra couple-y with Connor won't get called out by the weird Bash fans who keep hating on Joe till this day for posting 3/4th of OF Nick's head in a random Instagram story.

R59 He still does on his finsta. He never followed on main, or at least not for a long time

F&F the OP

R59 to clarify, he still does. He never followed her on his public account, he still follows her from his finsta

R65 It's still weird, Jenny and Kit follow her and she doesn't follow Joe. And Doulla follows Yaz, Kit and Alice but not Joe.

R60 What comment did you like?

The whole Croft clan needs help at this point. Cause why are they so pressed about Joe having a rebound after having broken up?

R66 how do you know re doula? She has a private account. But I legitimately think that entire family is so fucking unhinged that them unfollowing joe means nothing. They have serious mental issues.

R67 Nick's comment and the one that said (paraphrasing) to not @ people who aren't in the public eye with bullshit rumors. The comment that Nick liked. I assume Nick himself got blocked, too.

R66 Well, they unfollowed Joe

And Kit didn't follow Bash's sister. Idk where you are getting that from

R66 Kit doesn’t follow the sister. I am actually confused by what you are looking at.

R70 how are her parents not ashamed of her joblessness. My god.

We should've known something was up when we got to see Bash resposting that same post again on his Instagram story.

R74 his caption is just telling us he’s dropping some god awful song. I suppose I should be thankful for the TW. Though if he drops some hamfisted song sung nasally without ability to hit the high notes, aka his usual composition, about how he now craves the taste of tea lips instead, I have to hope the antis succeed in their cyber bullying and their mutuals drop him

Bradley following Bash's mom is funny though. But you can't see who she follows

She isn’t actually jobless. She owns a food company that makes granola bars or something. But she also lives in an actual Manner House that she’s been restoring for the past several years, so her job appears to mainly be employing other people to do the work and living off the proceeds. Typical super rich person job. Lots of generational wealth.

R71 I meant she follows them. It's weird that she follows all those people and not Joe.

R77 check her LinkedIn. She’s been a “freelance consultant” since 2018, the company has been shut down since. She’s unemployed.

MCU-related and relevant for obvious reasons, Jonathan Majors is done.

R75 Placing bets on if it'll be a negative song about Joe or about the new love of his life, his penpal Charlie. Or maybe both saying Joe's shit and the new guy is awesome and not bitter like coffee

R78 I seriously don't follow you. Steph did follow Joe and unfollowed him after the OF Nick thing. Yes, it's weird because she's weird.

R78 it’s not weird, the family is insane. But given you didn’t answer the doulla question guessing you’re a troll trying to imply yet again Joe “did something” as opposed to this being a family who need joint therapy

Someone zoom on that phone screen.

R81 I’m wondering how he’ll work in that one is a “real” Charlie and the other is “fake” in some heavy handed way. Also would like to create a drinking game re the overt marvel references he makes. Rhyming superhero with zero and maybe reposting a graphic similar to his amazing “no LGBT without the T 🥺 slogan” about Jewish rep perhaps

R82 Can you relax? No one said Joe did anything. I see their names because I follow them.

R83 the way I’d dive off that balcony if being around bash’s annoying energy was my other option

R85 if you follow doulla then post a screenshot showing that. She’s private. Again, I don’t care if she unfollowed him. In fact, happy for joe he’s free of these lunatics.

R83 Here's the full picture, posted 5 hours ago. Isn't that around when shit was going down on Instagram?

R85 You don't see who his mom follows. You can see who follow his mom like everyone else can.

R88 either they’re all as intolerable as him or they put up with him because his dads credit card pays for things

R88 Yes, I'm assuming he's being passive aggressive as always

Alice just follow your own damn books and cut Bash loose.

Setting the Joe of it all aside for a second, between Bash wanting to have his cake and eat it too RE: not being fully out and apparently being fine with homophobic comments when they're aimed at a sex worker, I really don't think his ass deserves to be at Pride.

R93 actually an excellent point. I don’t agree with people who think he’s trying to pass as straight but I do think he’s avoiding explicitly saying gay. Which is his choice and I get it’s a homophobic industry and all. But between speaking over his also queer lead actor costar at pride, choosing to obscure, and being such a dick re queer sexwork, he can fuck off

Steph's account is now private. Is it too much of a coincidence that her account is now set to private after someone pointed out that they have been blocked by her?

R92 She probably won't. I see a little clique forming with Bash, Connor and her. I don't think she'll be against Joe by any means, but isn't going to give much of a shit about him as usual.

R95 No, it's for sure weird. Why is she on IG at 4 in the morning anyway.

R95 no, I’ve been thinking for awhile that Steph knows about DL. Jesus. I know we’re not private but why the fuck would they care what we have to say (I know it’s hoodiegate - that’s how and why)

R98 being called unemployed didn’t seem to shake her but being called unfortunate looking may have made her self conscious. Truth does hurt I suppose

Imagine reading a gay website where people talk about your brother's dick and lack of ass and how much they want to fuck his ex at 4am. The perks of unemployment I guess.

R95 she has a right to privacy despite commenting, liking, unfollowing, and all that in a petty way. When her unfollows were tracked and used to speculate Joe actually cheated, she didn’t mind, only when people call a spade a spade and mention that she is jobless, petty and creepy, and also not a looker than suddenly her social media activity should be private. Also funny nick doesn’t deserve privacy, given she blocked people over suggesting as much, huh?

R100 when you put it this way… if the entire family is reading John I BEG you, go in for a full time on call therapist or failing that group lobotomies for the family. It’ll Improve the world

Curious if she'll remove Joe's finsta as a follower now that she's mad. He's following 239, so if it goes down you know she did it

Okay well it’s been pushed to a whole new level. This means not only is Bash ignoring Kit’s comments but even when it’s been spotted and commented on extensively (not just in his replies) he’s still doing it. If Joe knows about us too that would be hysterical. However, in my trashiest heart of hearts, it’s really OF Nick I hope knows we’re fans because we essentially blew up his spot.

R104 I hope OF Nick knows in all seriousness that these threads (aka mostly actual queer men) really like him and this his and joes friendship is fun.

Bash’s sister is still awake because he’s still awake and clearly they have to plot the clever captions for his much later repost of connors post to trigger warn us about new “music” (alleged, his nasal screeching may I suppose be called that) and to discuss the intricacies of his latest conveyor belt twink rebound.

Wholesome interlude in the midst of the Croft family derangement. Joe being raised by a single mum is I think a good part of why he seems so down to earth, likable, and reasonable. Their bond is extremely cute and in the midst of the 500 influencers coming to pride, I wouldn’t mind seeing her and joe and Kit again

R107 I always thought it was cute that Kit got so overwhelmed by love that he hugged Joe and his mom one after the other.

R108 yeah I don’t even know Joe in real life obviously but even I felt weirdly emotional and fond of him after seeing his tiny brave self go flip off homophobes and be so proud of being gay. I’m sure for Kit even more so

Another wholesome thread break. I think around pride I started to believe they weren’t just friendly but legitimate friends off set, but the con and moments like this are when I thought “oh they’re legit close”

R110 I adore that clip, its so damn cute

R111 same. Putting aside the aesthetic appeal I think it’s the obvious comfort and relciprocity. Not just Kit grabbing joe, joe pulling kits arms around him. Extremely cute.

I hope they fuck.

Joe just got a new anthem to use. He's been hyping Olivia up about this. Its very apt given what hes currently dealing with.

R112 You really stuck the landing with the end of this comment.

R114 thank you. Timing and spacing are everything.

R113 “blood sucker, fame fucker, bleeding me dry like a goddamn vampire” god damn lol

R110 A shame we didn't get more of this one.

R113 it’s actually insane how apt that is. Down to him being a little older, a “fame fucker”. Also the refusing to come out has a different meaning in the song but made me laugh in this context.

God knows despite it literally sounding like joe could’ve ghost written it, bash’s dumb ass will post it tomorrow claiming it’s so apt for him

R114 agree. It all felt a bit frau (sorry boys, but you use cute and sweet too much I’m gonna make assumptions). Then R112 really nailed the ultimate balance on that tone. Well done

R118 Oh Bash's dumb ass is 100% going to post this tomorrow.

R119 lmao I feel you. I do think Kit and joe are adorable and all but sometimes I read comments that make me certain it’s not a queer man. I get the joe cute aggression especially but it’s coupled with sex appeal let’s be real

R119 The use of cute is my most frauish quality and an aftereffect of being raised with little sisters, I will accept these assumptions in defeat.

Wondering what line bash will quote that will have me screaming with laughter. I’m going with fame fucker

R123 “six months of torture you sold as some forbidden paradise” in reference to the Marvel gig.

This thread will not survive Bash unironically posting this song.

R124 Did Joe co write this fucking song? So much of it lines up lol.

R124 that one while still untrue wouldn’t be a total self own which his is usual MO

R125 when he does joe can just post the song as well with the quote “I should have known it was strange you only come out at night” with at night struck through. But yes bash thinking this is for him will make me laugh audibly

R123 you can't love anyone cause that would mean you had a heart

So many choices though

Bash is gonna quote Fame Fucker and its going to give me an aneurysm

I’m praying it’s fame fucker because I need a good laugh

R130 I'm trying to believe he won't but deep down I know he will.

If you need further proof that joebashcandies's creepy, homophobic ass lurks here she's decided to start lecturing us.

I hope things are unsafe for her and she deactivates. Or dies, whichever

R133 Not this hag playing morality police when she’s had no problem stoking hatred against Joe and Kit. Eat glass.

I’m actually scratching my head trying to figure out how anyone is still stanning bash. He’s not particularly funny, bright, or talented. I think all his appeal was in “he’s so eager and sweet and enthusiastic”. Now he’s none of the above, so what’s the appeal?

At least if Kit or joe were cunts they’d have acting talent as a fallback

In before the inevitable mention of his dick.

R137 when tragically we have 0 real sense of whether he can even use it right. His total lack of glutes and ass suggests a weak thrust game. best boy OF Nick knows what he’s doing at least

No way they dated for two years if the sex was bad at 19 and 21. The sex is probably why they were together that long in the first place.

R139 joe was likely a virgin going in. Who knows.

This is killing me. I WISH Joe owned and publicly wore this. Joe wear it to pride

R139 Joe probably had nothing to compare it to.

Preview of Saturday?

R143 I’ve been thinking about that clip for the last day. It was fucking weird at the time

R144 In retrospect, it was kind of emblematic of their dynamic. It reminds me of Bash popping up on stage at CCXP. In and out for no reason, pulling focus from the leads.

R145 yeah, I think DC pride probably gave us a window into what Kit and Joe are like without Bash. Tbh, apart from work (including media) I wonder how much time the two of them have actually spent alone in a social sense.

R146 I'm guessing not a ton. I know people initially insisted that Kit and Bash were much closer than Kit and Joe because of personality, but I think it just came down to the fact that Kit and Bash were able to hang out without Joe while Joe was on the IOM, but once Joe was in London he was basically a package deal with Bash and it was always the pair of them with Kit. The trip to Brazil, for example, would have been a chance for them to hang out but Bash of course ended up going.

Bash's vampire post is here! For reference, the lyrics at 0:20 are "how's the castle built off people who pretend to care about."

*[bold]you[/bold] pretend to care about.

Spectacular choice of lyric! What a sulky dickhead. Makes me feel more confident in my theory that the initial fight was about Bash feeling Joe chose work over him (I realise it actually doesn’t align well but I’ve decided it does). I really hope Joe doesn’t go high road - I want him to choose something deeply petty in return

What is OF Nick comment on Connor’s post?

R151 Here you go. Yesterday’s thread gives a full play by play.

It was a reply to a comment he was tagged in from some hero saying he and Joe were dating. He told them to stop living on the internet. Then they started talking about Nick being a sex worker and how fucked up that was. Fairly typical faux progressives being cunts about sex work. After about 5 hours of leaving it there Connor deleted it.

R148 ngl, there’s something seriously wrong with him

Bash is such a looser, i hope that Joe continues to take the high road and makes him look even more pathetic

R148 I’m so sorry it remains hilarious to me that he legit chooses a song that sounds like joe could’ve written it and another song about how his ex was too dumb to get him and lost the breakup and DOESNT see how he’s setting himself up. Is today his sisters day with the shared brain cell?

It's kind of funny that Connor didn't delete the comment saying he has no friends his own age

The Olivia one could just be Bash promoting the song cause that's the only song that got dropped today. But the Maisie Peters' one was so obvious cause not just did he post it on his story, he even commented the lyrics on a post in a very obvious manner.

Seems likely Nick actually DMed to ask him to remove it because he started following him and it disappeared not much later

I also think Bash just wanted to post Olivia’s new song, he would’ve done it even if they hadn’t broken up.

R158 absent everything else he’s done I’d agree, but he is petty as fuck so.

R150 not sure I agree this is true, but presuming it was and also presuming for laughs that joe was auditioning for a broadway play and his being in America came up in the fight. imagine being a marvel and Netflix star auditioning for a serious play ,and being told you don’t take your boyfriends role giving a bottom tier American accent in a play in Englands 10th smallest city as seriously as you do your ow.n career.

[quote] Englands 10th smallest city

Beautifully done

Can’t wait for new content. I’m not a fan pf Bash but I feel like i’m on twitter with a bunch of anti bash fraus.

Honestly if posting a petty song is the extent of the revenge he takes on joe today over the Nick situation, whatever

It is funny seeing twitter bash fans decide actually he was the victim in yesterdays situation because DL doesn’t like him and Connor, while ignoring that joe and Nick actually got dragged in the situation.

I really hope he ass stays home tomorrow and does something productive. Works on his singing skills, or accent abilities, or any of the other glaring holes in his acting ability

R163 The whole Connor and Bash shit was just the usual nonsense they've been doing the past couple weeks, doesn't really phase me now, but not sure if they were doing it on purpose to show Joe's no longer their 'friend' or if they are just delusional and think people are actually interested in them and wouldn't ask about Joe. Either way they are the ones who dragged Joe into it. And nobody was stalking Bash's sister either. Someone just noticed they were blocked randomly. That whole situation still blows my mind.

R150 I can see how it could have been career related. Joe was never going to make his play closing and might have wanted to audition for something that takes him out of London again. Gotta wait to see what Joe gets cast in next to tell.

R166 I love how we went from saying Bash was going through his breakup feelings and we should let them act it out (cuz they’re young) to obsessively analyzing everything he or his sister do. His sister can unfollow or block anyone she wants. She’s not a celebrity. And yeah, Connor and Bash are annoying but that’s their right and they’re not dissing Joe or anything like that. Maybe Joe liked Bash’s post to calm y’all down with the crazy theories. The jokes were funny at first but now it’s tired and boring.

Alice saying the heartstopper announcement will be at 3PM tomorrow and might be livestreamed

Why is she live-streaming the announcement on her insta? Is it not a proper announcement by Netflix?

R167 people can do whatever they want, but other people can judge them? She can block someone for liking a comment telling the, to get offline and not drag random non famous people into shit. We can think it shows shitty character and comment on it. Again, she was fine being public when her pettiness reflected badly on Joe. Now that it’s her and her brother getting backlash suddenly she’s private

R169 Im thinking we need to manage our expectations with this. If its just a shitty stream off her phone. Companies usually make big announcements on Monday through Thursday.

R169 I think if it's from Netflix it will be reposted by them, and she's streaming it for the sake of people with FOMO. Could be wrong though.

R167 You constantly whine about what people are talking about usually when it's not favorable to Bash. And no, I'm gonna call someone crazy for blocking a random person who liked a comment in favor of her little bro's ex boyfriend's hookup. Her account was public. There's a bash thread is this one is too hard on you fyi. You can talk about the huge role you think he's going to get next and not have to read jokes about him.

R167 why do people think what they find boring should dictate what people want to talk about on here? If this isn’t for you, jog on. Come back tomorrow when there are Pride pictures or something.

R172 I’m sure Netflix will be fucking thrilled if Alice runs some dodgy Insta live of their trailer to all her fans so that’s what hits Twitter and Instagram first. She’ll be their very favourite

I think they'll probably tell her she can't livestream it

R173 Just because I’m not on the hating train doesn’t mean I’m a fan of Bash. And I’m sick of you all ruining this thread with your obsession over what Bash’s family is doing. No one would have dragged OF Nick into Connor’s comment section if it wasn’t for this thread. It’s getting tired. You’re acting as if they’re liking hate posts about Joe. Get a grip.

Kit is moving up in the world. From Tesco to M&S

R176 ruining this thread? It’s a fucking gay gossip forum, and gays are gossiping. It’s just not to your taste at the moment so do something else for a bit. I don’t even give that much of fuck about the sister shit but it’s so fucking boring when people try to shut down gossip.

R178 Yeah so talk about their penis size or who’s got the hotter ass. No one gives a fuck about Bash’s sister. She unfollowed Joe weeks ago. She’s irrelevant.

R176 So if we didn't talk about actual gossip in a gossip thread then nobody would know about the gossip. A thrilling conclusion. We can't help it idiots are reading to thread and leaving comments. Celeb making things public, even slightly public, leads to gossip on a gossip forum.

R179 Why don't you start, though that stuff has been said about a million times too.

R179 be the change you want to see

I’ve lost interest in his loser sister long ago. It’s Bash’s persistent dickery that’s fueling the gossip. One can’t demand attention and not expect feedback.

R177 I think that was a joke, based on a gif they posted shortly after.

And gossip is fine, that’s what the threads have always been, but it doesn’t have to involve absolutely dragging people that you don’t know, when they haven’t done anything catastrophic. Yes, Bash has been a bit petty, but he hasn’t done anything that people who weren’t obsessively watching his every move would ever pick up on.

And then it starts leaking outside of the forum and that’s quite disturbing. The actual real people that you’re targeting could see this. ‘Bitchy gossip forum’ isn’t a get out clause for being really fucking nasty. This place is actually more toxic than Twitter at the moment.

R183 speaking of “leaking outside the forum”. Why’d you comment on Nicks comment on Joe’s post, Rosie?

R179 No one's interested in talking about some grown woman. The only reason people are talking about Connor, Bash and his unemployed sister is cause Joe and OF Nick were dragged into this mess yesterday. And that thing happened yesterday so it's obvious that many will be talking about it.

And ofcourse it's Rosie who is policing the rest on what to do. Where did this attitude of yours go when you were replying to OF Nick on Instagram with annoying emojis, Rosie?

[quote] And then it starts leaking outside of the forum and that’s quite disturbing. The actual real people that you’re targeting could see this.

From the only person who has recognisably commented on one of the “actual real people” involved in a cunty way. The fucking audacity

R183 oh god please just go back to twitter then. Free yourself from our toxicity of gossiping and liking joe. Please

R185 Probably wouldn't have been more than a couple comments about her if we didn't know she was reading comments about Joe and Nick and blocking people who said to leave Nick alone. Sorry, that shit is funny and weird and if you don't think so you probably don't belong here.

Ah yes, my emoji response that I quickly deleted gave away EVERYTHING. If you didn’t all obsessively follow their every move then no-one outside of here would even know about OF Nick and the breakup. Which people then commented about in Connor’s actual post because they got the information from here. Sometimes it’s okay to be less stalkerish, especially when we know there are plenty of lurkers here.

You can hurl as much at me as you want (I find it hurts way less when it’s coming from people who seem genuinely unpleasant) but Twitter is still a better place than here at the moment. Always better to be a decent human.

R190 then fucking leave you miserable bitch.

Reader’s Digest version/summary please!

R191 Teehee, but it’s so fun to wind you all up by calling you out on your parasocial shit. But don’t worry, I’m barely here anymore. And I’m fairly sure everyone else decent has also left.

R190 Keep trying to blame us Rosie… your the one that brought it outside the forum.

Rosie you always have an excuse for everything. It’s ok for you to talk about how unattractive joe is to you, but not for people to call you out. It’s ok for you to ACTIVELY COMMENT on nick, but not for people to discuss and bitch internally here. You from the looks of your pics are far too old to be acting this way. You seem hugely unpleasant and it’s unsurprising to me that you have too little of a life to do anything but get offended by DL. fuck off hypocrite, go hang out with Joebashcandies.

R191 Pot meet kettle.

I love the way Rosie says you all as though her dumb ass isn’t on here reading everything. “Parasocial shit” - you literally think people being protective of Joe is a social crisis. Fucking loser shit

R190 Annoying bitch, leave if you are that bothered. This is a gay gossip website. If you are that bothered, leave. No one is stopping you.

Acting all superior now, when you were indulging in the same thing before. But now, just cause it's your fav Bash who is at the receiving end, it's suddenly against your morals? Fuck outta here when it was your miserable ass that started it all by dropping a comment under OF Nick's comment.

R193 So I guess you really did leave a comment to OF Nick since you won't defend yourself. Tbh, I think what annoys you most is that there are Joe fans here talking about Joe.

R189 Why are you even checking what she’s doing. She’s not famous. She’s not part of the cast. That shit was funny for 5 mins.

R199 oh she did. I’ve done her the courtesy of blanking out her last name but here.

R200 Nobody was checking what she was doing. She blocked someone here and that's how it got brought up. R45

R200 Could be cause a DL'er got blocked by her yesterday?

I'm going to need some of you to stop policing things around here. If you want to act all high and mighty, go back to Twitter where the conversations move the same way. This is a gay gossip forum. Everything and anything will get discussed here.

I don't know why people act like non-famous people are never discussed on DL either. Friends of famous gay guys are always brought up and who they follow and unfollow since it's an easy way to tell the status of relationships because it's a freaking gossip forum. It's like you guys have never read another thread at this place.

R199 I did - my message at R190 very clearly acknowledged this. However, while this was silly and quickly deleted, it gave absolutely no-one any new info and was likely seen by about 5 people. However, everyone on here stalking their likes and follows most definitely gave people all the information they needed to take it to Connor’s post, where Connor, Nick, Bash and likely others saw it.

All of you still convinced that I dislike Joe and find him ugly, despite all the evidence pointing to the opposite (no, me saying I don’t really like his brows doesn’t make me hate him), is absolutely unsurprising considering the leaps you’re making in finding things to hate Bash about.

Also, Joe may not be with Bash anymore but he would fucking hate you all for the dragging he’s getting in this forum. Hope this helps.

Rosie’s weird projection that Kit doesn’t like joe that much is always so fucking funny too. Her: joe isn’t attractive, he doesn’t have the it factor and Kit does, Kit was going to call him geeky and is just as physically affectionate with will. Also her: I love joe and Kit equally and to say I’m being annoying is so mean I will call you all nasty and cry. Mate if you’re that sensitive about your life don’t comment on a teenagers looks

Don’t really care if Joe would hate me? Gossip is gossip, I like Joe a lot but I acknowledge he is a celebrity and we do not know one another. Unlike your weird 30 something ass I’m not taking it off the forum or getting parasocially upset. The irony of someone who wants everything she says and does excuses to come on and call others nasty? Straight up cancel your subscription and go make the Joe anti account of your dreams on twitter

R205 You left a comment to him. You have zero right to speak or judge anyone. Just shut up.

Are we gonna talk about Rosie all day? We get it. Just ignore her.

Also conveniently always omits she commented on his ears too. And all the other backhanded shit she says. No wonder she’s a bash fan, she too loves to do shady mean snarky shit and then when called on it play victim.

R209 a lot of the guys on this thread have wanted her and her judgmental ass to fuck off for a while and this hypocrisy is a breaking point, but fair enough

Anyway looking forward to more of this tomorrow

R210 And that’s different to people constantly talking about Bash’s lack of ass and lips, big nose, zero talent - how? Double Standards R Us!

R212 because if someone called me a dick for it and said I clearly don’t like bash, I’d say they’re right on both counts, not claim I loved him, try to take the moral high ground, and tried to downplay my comments. Though for the record, I actually like his nose. The rest stands though, good summary

Rosie, as the DLer that got blocked I don't give a fuck that I got blocked. I give a fuck that I got blocked [italic]because I liked comments defending a guy that was getting maligned for nothing more than being a gay sex worker.[/italic] You keep conveniently omitting that part of it.

Rosie: Joe doesn’t have the it factor.

Marvel: Cast Joe as a lead

This bitch has no idea what talent is. It makes sense though given she’s a Bash fan.

R215 If Rosie doesn’t like Joe or find him attractive, why are you taking it so personally? I’m more a fan of Kit and I thought the ginger comment up on the thread was funny. Just talk about your faves and move on.

Anyway will always see this as Kit admiring joes perfect ass

R216 No one cares if she likes Joe or not. It's the comments she'll make on his looks and then going on to say that 'but I still love him' is what's weird.

R216 Basically a sum up of the entire thread. Don’t find Joe drop dead gorgeous, and make a mild comment about his brows? Devil woman. Don’t like Bash, and shit on his looks, personality, talent and career for weeks on end? It’s fine, it’s a bitchy gossip forum! Make it make sense.

R218 Bullshit.

R216 tbh context was key at the original Rosie dunking but she kept bringing it up and being butt hurt she got called out, so now she gets rinsed for it. Lots of guys who were telling people to cool it on going her originally ended up getting sick of her too and now instead of 2 detractors she has 8. It’s been a pretty magnificent self-righteous flame out. You’ve gotta respect it

R219 Fuck Bash and his handful of stans roaming around. Hope that helps!

We've all said some shitty things here I'm sure, I know I have, though girl you will never recover from saying Kit doesn't say anything nice about Joe because there's nothing nice to say. Just take the L and go back to twitter. And please refrain from leaving cute comments to Nick if you can. And for the millionth time, Bash has his own thread. The only two people who are safe here are Kit and Joe, everyone else gets shit on from time to time. And Bash still has no ass.

Rosie would you fuck off? My god do you have any mates irl you can talk to?

Still love this clip

R217 I support this, and as evidence would like to present this picture of him taken a second after that one. I don't think anyone else ever posted it.

R222 Hahaha, paste my actual comment in here in full for context. I dare you.

Rosie continuing to ignore the ears comment, the it factor comment, and the multiple other comments about joe and Kit’s closeness that make people actually think she doesn’t like joe much is so funny. She keeps desperately repeating brows

R225 Okay

[quote] There's no way that Kit's first impression of Joe was his weird thumbs - I feel like that's a bit of a cover to avoid saying something more personal. He does seem quite cautious/reticient when it comes to complimenting Joe in general - but is very complimentary of other cast members like Will and Bash. Either he just doesn't have many great things to say, or it's a bit of a boundary thing as they play love interests and he doesn't want people to take it the wrong way. He jokes about Joe not being very complimentary but I actually think Joe is far more complimentary towards Kit in interviews/on social media.

Ladies, settle down. Don’t feed the trolls. We have a 100+ comments in this thread talking about Rosie. Who the fuck cares. DL has an ignore function. We don’t all need to destroy the threads in an attempt to police ourselves. Just shut up until something actually happens worth talking about, and then talk about that.

My only real complaint about Rosie is she always comments back when people call her out. Her need to defend herself has derailed several previous threads. But today it gotten seriously out of hand.

R226 Again, you are welcome to post my comments about the IT factor etc in here, in full context. You’ll notice that a) that comment was full of Joe compliments (the it factor is something that almost no one has - Kit is a rare breed, hence his insane social media engagement) and b) it got a shit ton of likes from people here at the time. Do they all hate Joe too?

Feel free to copy in a few of the hundreds of nice things I’ve said about Joe too - but of course you won’t, because that doesn’t fit the narrative.

If you want to find someone I actually dislike, look at my comments about Alice or Yaz.

R227 Cheers - I think anyone with an ounce of objectivity can see the meaning there. Kit notoriously hasn’t been very good at complimenting Joe - it’s kinda bugged me in the past. He’s better at it now. It’s hardly me implying that there’s nothing to like about Joe.

R219 Rosie this is a gay gossip website, why the fuck are you even here? Why are you invading our space and telling us how we should be able to talk?

R231 I’ve been here for a year and it was a decent place before. It’s only become a shit show since Joe and Bash broke up. You can all do and say what you like but I’ll express my opinions (as you’re all doing) if I think it’s shit.

The dynamic of their banter has always been trolling each other interspersed with compliments. Genuinely weird to frame it as Kit being weird about Joe when it's a reflection of their senses of humor.

Is Lucy back on the IOM, then?

R323 so you’re cool with invading gay spaces and telling us how we’re allowed to act? Fucking homophobe.

Ok I’ll be honest, I’ve long felt really uncomfortable that spaces meant to be for queer men have turned into all queer spaces by default. Those are great and necessary but I think it’s fine and good to acknowledge queer male experience is different from eg queer women. I obviously can’t make anyone do anything but I do find the presumptuousness of a woman coming onto the threads to scold and police queer men while also commenting her generally negative thoughts on a gay out member of the cast to be very troubling. I would not join a specifically lesbian website and insist it’s ok because I’m queer too and give my thoughts on what Is and isn’t decent.

Wait it’s actually fucking hilarious that it’s ok for Rosie to “actually dislike” a 19? Year old trans woman and speak negatively on her but no one can dislike Bash. She is demented

R236 and the only person she “defends” is the unlabeled guy, she can still cling to hope of being with. When Bash eventually comes out, she is going to flip on him.

R238 well no, I think she just doesn’t like Joe very much and insists semi conciliatory comments she makes are proof she loves him when she shits on him nonstop. So whoever is being a dick to Joe she’d support

R234 Looks like it. Still wanna know if Joe found a place in London. Guess we'll know if he's still hanging around London after Pride. Kinda feel Netflix/See-Saw would get him some place so promotion is easier leading up to the release, but who knows.

And him hanging out with that Eric guy shows the worry about his social circle was pretty unfounded. Seems like he's having an easy time of it.

R239 ‘when she shits on him nonstop’… proof please! The level of delusion people sink into in these threads is quite something.

R241 can I post some pics of you then since your comments on Joe were fine for similar critique?

R235 Lol I’m as queer as they come, but sure, I’m both a Joe hater and a homophobe.

Let's just start ignoring Rosie and get back to talking about Joe and Kit. Ignore her so that she can continue talking into the void.

Anyways what are some of the predictions for tomorrow? Will we get to see the trailer? Will we get to see some unhinged behaviour?

R241 interesting how you continue to ignore questions on why you are invading a gay space. It’s very telling.

R244 I think Bash will be a bit petty but unsure how yet. Refusing to talk to Joe and trying to cling onto joes closest friends in the cast minus maybe Kit. Though agree with the others if he acts all friendly and nice to them then I will start the sociopath rumours

R242 Only if you post some of yourself as you hide behind anonymity?

Also, do I need to mention again the far harsher comments about Bash’s looks that every man and his dog have been making? But they’re fine, right?

R244 I kinda want Bash to go for the drama

Rosie, found something you might be excited for. I personally voted no and would find it hilarious if everyone else did to the point that it's a landslide of nos, but it might be fun for you!

244 hopefully Kit and Joe on some sort of float together, so we can get some more high quality pics. Tight outfits again please!

A trailer would be nice but its would be a weird move for an industry that never announces things on weekends.

R248 Same. For drama purposes, want Bash to show up tomorrow. Also curious to see how he's going to act in a public spectrum going forward.

R240 seems like an upgrade from the old friends tbh. And I’m not even being cunt to Bash’s mates, I just mean Eric is a properly impressive guy

R244 I’m most interested in the Kit/Bash dynamic. Bash ignoring Kit’s comments is not something I would have picked in the JoeBash break-up bingo

R247 Didn’t ever claim nothing I said about Bash was mean, it is. But if your commentary on joes brows, ears, and lack of it factor aren’t mean surely I can make similar ones about you without hurting your sensitive feelings? No one making dickish comments about bash is denying they’re dickish. You’re the one coming on insisting insults against Joe aren’t insults so if that’s the case then step up for the same level of critique!

R245 Can I recommend a pair of eyes? R243. Not hard to spot.

R254 multiple comments about it being a specifically queer MALE space. Can I recommend a pair of eyes? R236. Not hard to spot.

R254 it’s a male space your fucking moron

Not to state the obvious, but you can be queer and phobic. Have you been in a coma for the LGB with the TQ bullshit? Or the way some lesbians hate bisexual women?

Do we see Bash being all over Kit tomorrow?

Hoping to see more of the dancing at this pride. I know it was the Joe Lycett event but the Joe Kit dancing was very cute

R258 no I don't. Could be wrong though

R258 I hope not, hopefully the couples are paired up on a float or something.

R253 Everything that’s been said about Bash is a million times worse than anything I’ve ever said about Joe. Never insulted his personality, his talent, his career. And not once have I claimed that my occasional comments about brows/ears (I’d estimate I’ve made three comments in the year I’ve been here) aren’t mildly insulting. I’ve just stuck to the reality that I really like Joe, but people are SO exceptionally oversensitive to Joe on these threads that they’ll take the tiniest grain and decide I think he’s the worst person in the world. There’s no rational backing to it. I’ve seen a ton of other people get jumped on in these threads when people have misinterpreted a comment as an insult to Joe when it wasn’t at all.

And if Bash insulters are also dicks, why is it I’m the only one that people are telling to fuck off? Oh yeah, because my comments were about Joe. It’s literally the only difference. The way people can’t see the hypocrisy is baffling.

R262 You're the only one being told to fuck off because you're the only one trying to police this thread, hope this helps.

R262 you have denied they’re insulting. And it’s funny you only admit as much when someone calls out your pics and looks. Can’t take what you dish out, huh.

People liking Joe more than bash is not new, nor is it rocket science. He’s more talented, the lead of the show, smarter, funnier, and is handling the breakup better. You’re a fucking crazy person.

Fuck off to Twitter you moron.

[quote]The way people can’t see the hypocrisy is baffling.

The way you can't see how unwelcome you are here is even more baffling.

R256 Give it up, for the love of god - this desperate cling to it staying a male space only. It hasn’t been for a long time.

R265 If I was welcome in such a toxic cesspit of a place then I’d be doing something very wrong. So I will take the compliment.

It’s been fun, guys! Can I recommend more time outside and less time tracking people’s likes that you don’t know?

R258 absolutely not. Increasingly, because Bash is kind of being an arse, I think Kit and Joe might be a little unit (probably with Will thrown in the mix unless he needs to be with Yaz).

R267 sure. You too babe

R267 Oh my God, shut the fuck up and stop trying to put yourself on a pedestal.

R266 Oh cool so now your the authority on erasing gay spaces.

Page dump, and this was apparently part of her update yesterday:

[quote]I was in London all day today at various meetings and catch-ups with sooo much chat about Heartstopper, which made me want to draw IMMEDIATELY when I got home even though it's like 11pm. So here you are!

[quote]Can I recommend more time outside and less time tracking people’s likes that you don’t know?

No.

R271 the amount of shirtless Joe we’ll probably get s3 and s4. Praise the lord

R273 almost makes me want a S4

Speaking of tracking likes, nobody else from the cast liked Connor’s post even with the multiple Bash reposts.

R273 Joe’s our first male young avenger, does Marvel give him the obligatory shirtless couple of seconds? They did have him get toned.

R275 joe may be willing to be the bigger person but they’re not. Bless up

I’m pinning my hopes on that scene they shot at the lake.

The whole Heartstopper thread has become so unhinged and disturbing. How people's tune changes because 2 people break up? Get over yourself and get a life. This is normal so move on and stop saying vile things about people you don't know but think you have a right to? Even stopping low to say disgusting things about someone's family.

How did a thread become so unhinged with weirdos claiming they know what so and so are saying. Lol lol

Losers

R279 wow Rosie you managed to stay away for an hour bravo…

R279 I don't know how many times this has to be explained, but some people didn't like or care about him to start with but just kept quiet about it. The only reason people here cared was because of Joe. When he gave people a reason to be bitchy about him, they decided to do it. Not that anything is actually that nasty. I do like how calling someone unemployed and lipless is apparently vile though.

I was a fan of his but for now I enjoy the roasting since I was always more of a Joe fan.

DL isn't Switzerland, it doesn't have to treat any of its subjects neutrally to avoid a few Twitter fraus throwing their toys out of the pram. Idk who this Rosie chick is but she sounds like an absolute borefest.

Feel some Bash fans want him to be treated like a main character since they mistakenly thought people were treated him well for any other reason than he seemed like a great boyfriend. He's always gotten shit if people felt he did anything to wrong to Joe. This is not the first time. It's just this time Joe's not dating him anymore so people can't say "well, Joe's fine with it, so it doesn't matter".

Tough break.

R279 It's easy to scapegoat a group of gay men, but the tide is turning on Bash everywhere. Shut the fuck up already.

Having main character syndrome on someone else’s behalf is interesting. Anyway if you read the original threads realising the breakup, almost everyone was actually really nice about him. Said both were young and good looking and would be fine, said they thought he ended it but understood why and felt empathy, etc. it’s only after he started acting like an absolute dick that people started having an issue. So this isn’t a poor victim situation

I will laugh in hysteria if Joe and Bash get back together or they become close friends. This thread will combust in flames.

R286 I wouldn’t care about them becoming friends. Would be yet more confirmation that Joe is a mature really nice guy to forgive all that pettiness and shittiness. Getting back together, I would hope for not because Bash has already launched a campaign to turn all his family and friends against Joe and I think having that much toxicity would suck. But again it wouldn’t change my thoughts on Joe or bash. Joe is mature, bash is a brat

R286 I think I'd just be concerned about Joe's emotional wellbeing if he and Bash got back together. I think we now have evidence from Joe's recent glow up that Bash tried to dull Joe's shine when they were together and I'd hate to see Joe accepting that relationship dynamic for himself again.

R288 Do you think Bash was toxic all throughout their relationship? Or it’s just that he doesn’t handle the breakup well. I wonder because Kit and To ie are close to him too.

Connor also posting vampire. Desperately wants everyone to remember he met Olivia

R289 I feel there may have been moments of toxicity that got wose towards the ends of their relationship. My mind keeps circling back to the ig story of Joe essentially calling himself a slut (in a very jokey way, but still). I think Bash said some really shit things to him during the argument they must have had when Joe flew back to the UK to see Bash's play. Imo that was Joe trying to call him out on it.

Bash still not archiving anything on his finsta is so fucking weird

We don’t know what’s on either of their finstas, if they’ve done photo dumps maybe they’ve deleted the pictures with the other and not entire posts. Or not, who knows.

R291 I wondered that because Joe deleted it so quickly. He's left everything else up but that.

R286 Don’t know if it’s the same one person that keeps saying this and wording it the same way trying to will them back together, but nothing that’s been happening gives even the vaguest indication that it’s in the cards unless Joe suddenly develops the lowest self-esteem on earth.

As much as Kit, tobie, will etc seem to be trying to be neutral, I have to think that they would suck it up to have a serious chat with Joe if he considered getting back with bash.

Connor looks old as fuck in this.

R297 he was cute in Locke and key but he sadly isn’t aging the best.

R297 how you age when you're problematic and start beef with teenagers:

R289 I don’t want to say their relationship was toxic because I have no idea. I will say though that being friends with people doesn’t mean much, someone can treat their friends well but their partner poorly. Or things that are mildly annoying in a friend like them being competitive with you or needing to be the center of attention can be really bad in a relationship

Really hoping for at least one shoot of Kit and Joe as a pair again.

Kit liked this post, maybe he'll wear something from this collection tomorrow.

So the things that make Bash a deranged freak is: Talk shit about his ex to his family (which we’ve all done) Have is sister and friends unfollow Joe on social (why would they still follow him if they broke up?) Not like Kit’s comments (that is weird but we don’t know what happened). And go on vacation with his friend Connor (who’s been his friend for a long time). Is that all? Looking back at it, I feel like we’re the deranged ones.

I would hate to be as dense as some of you. Anyway, your efforts would be better spent on attempting to revive the Bash thread. Were his pictures from Connor's post even posted over there?

R303 Not just talk shit about Joe his family but to his entire friends circle and also making them firmly choose sides.

About the Kit thing, it is extremely weird cause all Kit has done is try to be neutral but Bash has continued to ignore just him while he likes everyone else's comments and posts. And it's not like he doesn't know about this as he's out there deleting comments calling him out for it.

Let's also not forget his comment under Maisie Peters' post about the lyrics that he chose to comment. About the ex not being clever enough to understand him.

R303 For me the thing that pushed me off the fence was the 'won the breakup' ig story. You don't post something like that just a few weeks after a long term relationship break up without some spiteful intent.

R305 Adding on to this is his family members' behaviour from yesterday. His sister stalking the comments section of Connor's post and even went as far as to block a DL'er all cause they liked OF Nick's comment and another comment defending him.

Looking at all this, can assure you that we aren't the ones who are deranged and in need of therapy.

R306 I was willing to let that Instagram story slide cause at that time I thought it was just him hyping Maisie. This comment of his is what sealed the deal for me cause it couldn't be more obvious what he was trying to do.

R307 The only people who shouldn’t pick a side is Connor and the cast and it doesn’t seem like they did. Connor liked a few of Joe’s recent posts. He’s closer to Bash obviously, but until something major happens (unfollow or archiving posts with Joe) we can’t say he picked a side. Bashs friends will always stick to him over his ex boyfriend. Same with Joe’s friends. They can unfollow his ex, that doesn’t mean they have a problem with him. I thought Connor had cut Joe but he’s still liking his posts.

R302

Yes Kit go for something super gay and slutty

R309 if you want to convince yourself Connor is neutral and bash’s friends aren’t cutting Joe out at bash’s request, feel free to do so. Emily Carey liked joes post after the breakup literally a day or two before she unfollowed him. Connor is posting bash nonstop and vice versa in a way unusual for them. Connor liking a post or two because he’s a snake who doesn’t want to burn a bridge with a marvel star means nothing

You have to be dense at this point if you think Connor isn't taking sides. Even take yesterday's incident for instance. He was active when that whole mess with the comments was going on but he let it fester for hours and then finally decided to delete it.

The actors are living in your heads rent free. Maybe it's time to actually have a real friend instead of pretend online ones were you get to talk unhinged stuff about people you have never met nor will ever meet.

Cursory glance at how the closest people to Bash and Joe are behaving -

Connor (29 y/o): Didn't post a single picture of Joe when Joe took him to the TS concert, gave one of the Joe DC posts post a like pretty late (seemed like he was covering his ass), posting the fuck out of Bash in a way that is out of character (the sheer volume, posting family members when they're the people leading the charge on cutting Joe off), left comments up that were invasive about Joe at best, homophobic against one of Joe's non-public figure friends at worst for a very long time

Kit (19 y/o): Liking all of Bash's stuff and leaving nice comments (while being ignored by Bash), posted Bash to his Stories when he posted Joe on his feed, generally not indulging in any weird and shitty behavior

R313 Newsflash this is a gay gossip website. Acting like this is the first thread to talk about things like this. Go back to Twitter where you have come from instead maybe.

R313 Connor has a LPSG thread that might be more your speed.

Bradley made a whole ass announcement video for the title of his novella

New pictures of Kit at the Loewe show are still coming out. He has such a great smile.

R317 0/10, needs more Bradley singing Mr. Cellophane.

R319 while,Bradley is team joe, I almost wish he was team bash because the thought of their energy in posts together would be haunting

R318 I would be so good to him. I’d cook his favorite meals and take care of him.

Mildly curious about what’s going on with Bash and that Charlie guy. I don’t actually care about bash’s love life aside from the hope that him getting laid means he might leave joe alone, but weird that Charlie is commenting heart emojis and his siege and bash are liking them, but bash hasn’t bothered to like his last two posts. Best of luck to Charlie, with bash and with that family he will need it

R322 Can't be much of anything, can it? Doesn't look like they've been in the same country and IIRC Bash followed him first, so I'm guessing that Bash slid into his DMs like a desperate loser.

Will was still in LA as of yesterday, hopefully he flew back to the UK today. Also, nice nails.

I wonder if Joe’s been scared of posting anything fun on sm for awhile. He’s so snarky about privacy, all that shit with OF Nick might have annoyed him into silence again. Big fuck you to those hero lurkers again

R322 Wouldn't doubt they just liked it because he was nice to Bash. I don't htink it's anything. Bash just followed him first and slid into his DM's because he's a artsy cute twink. Maybe it's another Connor situation where they talk online and then eventually meet, though with added Bash actually fucking him. If family starts follow accounts then you'll know they actually met. I can't get over his sister (don't get triggered by a mention pls) actually knowing who he's trying to hook up with though. Guess there's no such thing as oversharing in that family.

I’ve been assuming that he’s been busy (he probably had a shoot yesterday judging by him following the groomer), but it’s going to fucking suck if yesterday affected him.

Joe posted on IG.

R328 have to hand it to him, that’s one of the funniest things he could’ve done

R330 agree. No vampire even funnier. He loves Olivia but that’s clearly too close to home.

R323 come on now, who among us? You’re letting your Bash hatred cloud your judgement here. Sliding into a hot twinks DMs is just about the most normal post break up action he could have taken

R328 Pretty sure he's a very unbothered person. And bash can try to pry a pop girlie out of his cold, dead hands

Joe used the fame fucker part of the song, I'm dying.

Joe using Fame Fucker!!!! Lets fucking go!!!!

R332 This is taking me out so bad. Fame Fucker is so on point!

R332 goddamn. I fucking love that. For some reason this makes me even more attracted to him.

Could admittedly be reading too much into it, but between the cast mostly ignoring a post they usually would have thrown a like at (Connor's ode to Bash) and the bit of the song Joe posted, it feels like they might have decided to stop with the olive branches after the shit that went down yesterday.

R336 tbh I think you kind of are… but why else are we here? I’d think more likely just Joe had enough. I looked through Connor’s previous posts yesterday and Kit, for example, has barely ever liked them. It’s pretty brilliant that Joe has a song that he can be petty himself, but it’s also just excellent timing from Olivia.

R327 This seems likely considering it's rather late at night in the UK

And that song is a little too spot on, though maybe we are reading too much into it, which I will continue to do because I paid 1.99 to post

R338 tbc I think that the choice of lyric from Joe was absolutely on purpose. Just that the cast not liking Connor’s post wasn’t indicative of them all having enough.

R336 I wouldn’t be entirely surprised if the lack of likes meant something (just because they stopped after what went down in the comments). I would say it’s worth keeping an eye on but we’re already doing that.

It's like watching a game of chess with Joe skillfully controlling the board. They really are being out played.

God I truly love joe

Tomorrow will be a mess. Can’t wait.

I hope Joe is all over Kit tomorrow.

I’m sure bash will take both these things very personally because he seems to take everything in the breakup personally. Fucking hilarious that joe surrendered custody of Connor and rhea easily but refuses to give up a pop girlie

Have a feeling we will be getting to see more of Kit and Will together tomorrow.

R345 Pop girls are serious business. He got (jokingly) personally offended once when Connor said he was the one who got Joe into Adele

Joe and Kit were basically attached at the hip when Joe's actual boyfriend was with them in London and then were all up on each other in DC, I highly doubt Will is going to change that dynamic all that much.

R346 I’m sure we’ll see will hanging out with them all, but aside from joe and Kit seeming to have a genuinely physically affectionate relationship this is also basically a work event now. I’d guess we’ll see them doing piggyback rides and other nick and Charlie stuff to some extent.

Joe just followed Will’s sister.

R350 aw that’s sweet. Wonder if they’re hanging out?

I wouldn't be surprised, I've maintained from the very beginning that Joe's going to end up getting the Kit/Will/Tobie group in the breakup.

R352 maybe I’m misreading him because he’s so under the radar but Will seems to be extremely chill and above petty behaviour. I’m sure he like the other two is still going to be nothing but nice to bash but I doubt his antics have endeared him to anyone except inexplicably rhea recently

Sorry I know we all hate her but this is so fucking hilarious

R353 When I started saying that Joe would get that group it was way before it got as petty as it is right now. I was basing it mostly on dynamics, not so much about them picking sides in a feud. Joe is obviously closer to Kit and Tobie, but Joe's been playing Will's best friend on TV for 2 seasons and they did the play together, so I feel like Will would also naturally gravitate towards hanging out with Joe more than with Bash when they're all in the same place.

R354 When I read her tweets, I take an aspirin because what the fuck is she even going on about? She sounds legitimately insane.

R355 oh no, I know. I’m saying with the recent antics I think a natural instinct to be closer to joe anyway becomes more pronounced. Because it’s not just an I feel bad for both but am a little closer to joe and see him more thing. It’s a thing where the person they’re closer to is also the one being sniped at constantly

R354 I need the HS Twitter fandom to turn that into a copypasta. It’s so easy. It’s right there.

R353 Will seems to really like Joe and is very close with Kit and Tobie. Bash was also mysteriously absent from their wine drinking parties, which might be reading into things, but another sign Bash was distancing himself from the cast (and Joe) in general. The idea that Bash was the glue that kept them all together is obviously wrong though, which is an idea his fans like to push.

When I feel weak, I take strength from you. When I feel tired, I take spirit from you. When I feel sad, I take joy from you. When I feel defeated, I take courage from you. Thank you for inspiring me every day, Kit Connor's ass.

R359 I think cast basically put that idea out there, but I mean he was fucking Joe. He might have just wanted everyone to get to know him. I’m giving him the benefit here, because he’s being a dick now, but I think it was probably a great relationship for a long time. He was clearly never the real glue though, as they all seem to hang out in groups that don’t include him.

I think if Yaz is there we will see a lot of Joe and Yaz (I like that we’re all basically assuming she won’t be). If she isn’t, I think Joe will chill with Will and Kit - with a lot of Joe and Kit specific stuff for the media stuff.

R360 need him and joe to show their asses onscreen. At this point I’d settle for tight boxer briefs or something

R360 like how the light is shining and illuminating the life saving ass

But not surprised our girl misreads Bash so much. She does think he's a bottom

R363 I always forget she was convinced they were vers. Joe isn’t topping anyone lbr (nor should, that ass was made to be worshipped)

R362 honestly, I’m so attracted to Joe that if I saw him in nothing but boxers I might pass out from lack of blood to the brain

Gotta give props to Alice for once since Charlie is constantly shirtless now. Maybe she'll get him down to his boxers eventually

R354 Nothing draws attention to how your fave has fucked up than a post like that.

R332 I don't know how I forgot mystery man's greatest moment of being a fame fucker until right now. Idk if Joe meant it like that, but I will continue to think he did.

I’ve posted this before, but Joe’s ass in these black shorts is a true marvel. I hope he wore nothing but them and the denim shorts the entire show. And I hope he wears them or something even tighter tomorrow.

There’s a difference between fucking for fun like a slut and fucking for fame like a loser.

Joe bash fans are holding down for dear life. Bless them

R371 Bradley already took custody of Buzz and Woody.

Manifesting for joe that he’s spending his summer getting his ass eaten and railed by every hot guy he decides he wants

R371 Who are they trying to convince? And what’s the point of a Joe and Bash account when one of them can’t stand the other? Every tweet is a tragicomedy.

R374 I think it's just fondly remembering them, Bash will never escape Joe and Bash fans. Though if you wanna look at it in negative way the whole Buzz and woody thing seemed more like a Bash thing Joe played into for him. Guess he's into that sort of thing.

The Joe and Bash Updates admin throwing a fit kind of cracked me up.

R376 Didn't Connor not even meet Bash until he was already dating Joe? I mean in person.

I don't care what Connor does really, though not sure why people are acting like he's Nell level of old bestie.

R376 her saying she is advocating for both after a long rant about how maligned solely Connor and bash are, fully ignoring how inappropriate it was to attack the one non famous person and tag him to shit on him for sex work, is hilarious. Rosie levels off falsely insisting she loves joe to prop up her fav.

Anyway, I hope Kit Carries joe at pride and then carry fucks him at home after

R378 She very clearly does not give a fuck about Joe, she was asked about the Instagram nonsense and turned it around on Joe fans:

[quote][bold]"they’ll never make me hate you" Well, apparently this is true for you for your love for B but what about J? You interacting with accounts which not even 24 hours ago slutshamed a literal teenager and were disgusting towards a sex worker[/bold]

[quote]what are you even talking about ahahahah no one of my actual moots thinks that! if you’re talking about dy, I didn’t read the tweet and I haven’t interacted with them since ages, we’re not close. And believe me, there are some j fans who are turning against bash so maybe worry about them and not me ty

Also, the JBC hits keep coming.

How did Joe put up with this for two years

R380 His dick is big

R380 Big dick, money, place to stay, meeting new people because of him, big dick.

R381 fair. Joe, king, you can find someone else with a big dick.

Obviously these are old from Brazil but this is a beautiful man

Teasing whatever they’re dropping tomorrow

Not sure if I’m alone on this, but I have a feeling it’s a teaser and not the full trailer.

R385 I think you're right. It's pretty late for a teaser though. Last year they dropped the trailer 37ish days in advance.

R385 my guess is maybe the paris clip we speculated the first look would be

R384 bless the sm manager at Most. It’s the only Netflix account that acknowledges more than the back of Joe’s head these days (outside of clips of the show).

R385 tbh I was pretty confused by Will saying they were busy preparing for Pride. I hope they’re not going to have to do some cheesy shit, and he just means giving a speech or something

R386 I was thinking that they dropped the first bit of the season at Tudum because they knew they’d be dropping the teaser at Pride (later than usual) and that they’ll drop the full trailer in July. The full trailer came out 9 days before the first season dropped, the teaser is what came out 37 days before.

R388 The bit about Pride isn't a direct quote, so I think it was just Maoui editorializing:

[quote]On top of all that, he's also prepping for a Heartstopper Pride moment, which will see him and his co-stars (Joe Locke, Kit Connor etc) take to the streets of Soho on Saturday as part of the annual London parade.

Speaking of GQ, interesting that they didn’t do a piece with either joe or Kit as far as I know for Ami or Loewe. Wonder why?

R391

For Loewe i would have assumed the clickbait would either be Taeyoung or Brian Cox at the show. As for Ami they don’t tend to do blurbs like that for the brand, do they?

New old pride pic. Even blurry, the difference in their frames is so hot. Kits arms and chest are so good and even from kind of a bad angle you can see joes perfect ass

R391 Delusionally, I've decided that it's because Kit and Joe are getting a bigger feature closer to the show's release.

Random, but since we were looking at videos of Kit waiting for Joe while Bash essentially forgot about him at Pride, here's a video of Joe waiting for Kit while Bash had walked off already.

R394 joe is really sweet. Again, I just feel like he and Kit should fuck.

R393 self replying but also it kills me to see that navy guy who was so into joe in EVERY pic

Unrelated but I feel for Taron. I hope he takes care of himself. Bash should take some inspiration from this and leave IG too.

R397 normally I don’t like social media break announcements but I actually did like this one.

R397 I saw that the other day. It’s interesting because his Insta was so fun, but so many people questioned his sexuality in the comments. Just shows what people are putting on sm can be total bullshit, because he managed to make Glastonbury look bearable

Forgot Joe took Connors clout chasing ass to Adele too

R397 Taron doesn't have anything to promote this summer, unlike these guys.

R396 never identified with anyone more than Navy Gay

R402 Navy Gay shooted his shot that day despite Kit and Joe's chemistry being at its most blinding and therefore became the only military personnel I'll ever respect.

R394 It’s really sweet to see how Joe looks out for Kit and vice versa. We keep seeing this genuinely caring dynamics between them. People who care that much for each other should fuck.

Looks like they’re not walking this year.

R405 Joe and bash being stuck on that tiny ass float together is so cringe they have my sympathy

Seems right. The 10s of queers influencers will probably be walking in HS merch. Have to wait to see how good the visibility is on the float but ngl, looks like Kit and Joe are going to have to hang off the sides to be seen

Video of the Heartstopper float.

Joe will have no choice but to let Bash drape himself all over him and Kit.

R409 bash would sooner shove him off the float. Maybe bash will insist he and rhea walk with the influencers and generally dance about like an attention seeking tit

Can see Joe shoving him off instead. Kit might still indulge Bash and his attention seeking behaviour cause he's trying to stay neutral.

On another note, will we get to see Doulla?

Honestly will laugh if Yaz skips this year as well. This year, it's a big thing and if she manages to skip, wonder what people will have to say about that.

R411 Jesus, didn’t even consider the Mum. Can you imagine if both the Mamas are there. Fucking awkward.

R412 I think if she skips for trans pride again no one will care

R411 considering the way they coddle him they’ll probably all go and have flown out Connor to boot

Yeah this is pretty small

Yaz is there and to the person who said Kit would wear Jw you were right

So Bash is there.

Kit looks so fucking hot, the arms and that ass

Bash can't be bothered to acknowledge Kit on social media but will stick to him here. Was right in saying that he will be all over Kit as that's the only way he can manage to get attention.

Bash pretendign to play nice with Kit in public while ignoring him in private - never besting those clout chasing rumors.

Joe looks like his shirt is low cut. I want to lick his collarbones

R419 aside from clout chasing which is true, I also think he’s just going to make a point to be nice and pleasant to everyone but joe.

While I think being mature, encouraging the others to be neutral, and ignoring it will serve joe well and shows his character, I do feel for him in that it sucks to see friends play nice with someone being such a dick to you, don’t blame the others for it to be clear

Both joe and Kit going sleeveless and slutty. What a gift. Bash, fuck off home

How do we know he’s ignoring Kit in private? He and Kit look in a good mood taking there, but that’s only from one video to be fair.

Seeing Bash there is pissing me off for some reason. If cause of him and his bitchy behaviour, Joe somehow gets alienated, someone needs to stand up and show him his place.

R423 read the past threads. He’s been ignoring kits posts and comment while liking everyone else’s comments and deleting comments about how he has Kit on mute, so clearly not a coincidence. Guessing Kit was once again the bigger person and started the conversation with him. I hope Joe has a really lovely day.

To the people that guessed that Bash would cling to kit for clout, you were right on the money

R424 doesn’t look like they will. I get the virtues of being neutral and all but I honestly do feel really bad for joe. This guy has been an active dick to him for weeks and all his friends in the cast are being nothing but nice

Sebastian Croft, the other lead of the show. Joe Locke who?

Not Bash standing with Kit, Yaz and Will and Joe in the background. Well done, Bash, nailing cunt.

Very cute that kit and Joe are both in sleeveless tops

I will honestly be pretty pissed if this ends up with joe just having cori and kizzy to talk to. Nothing against them, they’re both very nice and likable, but jesus

yep looks like Bash is going to stick to Kit like a leech

Need all the Bash antis to wake it up and start with their anti Bash tweets cause this is pissing me off. Useless side character who doesn't even appear for more than five minutes is taking over and the main lead is getting alienated. Who exactly is the main lead of the show again?

R429 I mean to be fair I guess it’s a quick clip, but to me if they are actually trying to stay neutral, I get they’ll engage with and be nice to bash. But I hope they eventually make a move to seek out and be nice to joe. I’m sure they will during the parade but guess we shall see

The fact that joe is so uncomfortable I don’t even see him in any of these pics really, even in the background. Not great. Bash should’ve been told to stay home.

Who the fuck cares about Bash and being neutral to him at this point? He's an irrelevant side character who should have been written off the show way back. They should be trying to make things more comfortable for the guy who is the main lead.

R431 wearing a shirt that makes it look like he has broader shoulders to make him look more built out. Not the worst call bash has made I guess

At this point I’m about to become a Kizzy stan because apparently they’re the only person paying Joe attention there.

R431 Kit should kindly exit now that he’s played nice and go find his actual co lead

Joe being over it can’t be bothered with Bash and his clout-chasing shenanigans. This parade is going to look like crap if Joe is not a big part of it. The blame will come down on Bash anyways.

All the pictures and videos dropping from Pride just being Kit, Will and Bash. Lovely!

Anyway. He’s so hot

Well there you go. Bash didn’t have to win the break up. Just roll up to the float and stand close to Kit, who is too polite to be a cunt. I hope Joe doesn’t let Bash being there get to him too much and has fun with Kizzy, Cori and Tobie. I liked Bash but break ups are brutal and he’s straight up being a cunt by being there

R442 I love Kit and he’s been a great friend to joe, and I really respect him trying to be neutral. But he also needs to politely extricate himself and realise what bash is trying to do, and not allow himself to be a part of it

God, this is going to be a stressful af day. I hope someone is actively checking in with Joe throughout. I know he's mature for his age but he is still on the tail end of a messy (thanks to Bash and his friends/family) breakup with someone he clearly loved a lot.

Wow, truly no one giving a fuck about joe

Gonna need Bash to fuck off so I can get some Joe|Kit content.

R446 well, we’ll see if Kit seeks him out and puts an end to the bash clout chasing

R445 I mean, is he even on the float?

R447 it’s all exciting and shiny. No shade to Kit, but he just might not seek Joe out (who will definitely stay away if Bash is near by). Possibly, not that much Kit/Joe action today

No one seems bothered. Do they even remember someone called Joe Locke at this point? Looking at how they are behaving, one would think Bash is the one playing Charlie Spring.

Looks to me Kit just hanging out with Will and Bash is butting himself into the conversation for the pictures.

R448 my point is they should. Not even specifically Kit to be fair. But being neutral is more than fair, letting one dominate and monopolize you to spite his ex and doing nothing about it isn’t neutral

No it looks like they’re taking to Bash to me

At this point won't be surprised if Joe decides to walk out of Heartstopper after Season 3.

And then people wonder why he's not excited and posting about the show. If one gets alienated at the workplace like this, no one would.

Apparently joe is at the other end with Yaz. Wasn’t enough for bash to actively turn rhea against him, he had to make him actively uncomfortable todsy

Here, Joe with Yaz and tobie

More of bash with the cast

Doesn’t really look like he was forcing himself into a Kit and will chat, they seem to pretty actively welcome him

To be honest I think Bash's strategy is going to backfire on him. If there is a lack of Kit/Joe content today then even more of the fandom will turn against him. Bash should have aligned himself with some of the other secondary actors, put on a happy but reserved front, and maybe then would be praised for his professionalism. If he makes it impossible for Joe to approach Kit today then he's going to get a lot of negative attention.

The Kit Twitter fans love Kit/Will content so they will have a great day. Not a great day for Joe fans - though as Yaz is hard to spot, I guess she’s probably chilling with Joe.

Really love Kit. Not wild him letting Bash monopolise his space. Keep reminding myself they’re all (exception of Bash) teenagers and it’s hard to navigate these social complexities

On a side note, what the fuck is Bash wearing?

Tbh watching all the videos it seems like his MO today is to make sure Joe has no safe space he can just chill in. At first I thought monopolizing Kit, but then he moved on to dancing with the only people who were talking to Joe. Pretty shit day for joe

Today's thing further proves how much of a dick Bash is. How can't some see how vindictive he truly is?

He’s extremely cute. Fuck everyone else rn (they’ll probably be very nice with him during the parade but someone needs to shut bash down for being a dick)

Hot as hell

He is a huge attention Seeker. I am full on a bash anti

R463 Trust Joe to just focus on the reason while they're there, the fans, while Bash acts like a Lannister with the rest of the cast. Still not nice to see how isolated Joe looks though.

R466 I’m really not thrilled with the rest of the cast right now. I know they’re all teenagers and this is hard to navigate, but this is transparent and joe is supposedly their close friend.

R465 Joe is crazy hot in that… Pat also looks hot as hell. I’m sorry

Maybe I’m reading this clip wrong - when joe for a second starts to talk to Kit and will, bash immediately comes over to get their attention instead?

It’s a big event with all eyes on them. They’ll just try to have a good time and gossip about it afterwards.

They all look kind of distracted and like they're going through the motions.

Joe looks visibly uncomfortable but glad narcissist Croft is enjoying himself. Relly hope Joe exits after s3

I'm with the Twitter crowd on this one. Fuck Bash.

Joe is looking very hot in that deep v neck. Damn.

Joe and Kit look amazing, Bash looks horrible.

Don't see Joe returning back for Season 4. And Heartstopper fans have Bash to thank for that.

R469 I don’t think Joe is actually near them, just the angle. Tbh, I don’t think anyone is trying to be cunt. It’s just really awkward and Bash is much better at inserting himself. To be clear m, Bash is being a cunt, everyone else is just trying to get on with it

This is so weird, I actually think bash is psychologically off

R477 to be clear I don’t blame the others in that they’re both in an awkward, public situation and they’re teenagers. But I think this is something where in a few years they’d handle it differently in realizing staying neutral doesn’t mean allowing one to use you to fuck over the other

R478 Bash is doing the absolute most there. He definitely thinks Joe is watching him.

Joe and tobies clip is cute. Jumpscare after that

R478 He’s dancing with Yaz there I think. It looks like everyone is having a good time to me? Even Joe seems in a really good mood.

R482 he is literally walking around the float after joe ignoring him to pull the people Joe was talking to previously into dancing or conversation. He isn’t that close to them, he was in London the entire time and didn’t see them. Joe smiling for a fan pic doesn’t say he’s in a great mood, just that unlike his talentless ex he’s a good actor

Oh fuck off doulla

The atmosphere seems really good and positive, I thought it would feel more awkward. I’m actually a fan of Bash’s outfit, his arms look great.

The only people is sitting there’s no awkwardness being bash Stans is so funny. Anyway

*insisting

R481 seriously? Bash and Kit? This content is boring. Not those posting it, the actual content. Well done to the HS team for letting an ex of one of the stars monopolise the other star. I like Bash but this break up is a fucking bummer for people who like Kit and Joe content

I knew I could trust Yaz

At least Joe and Kit look hot

Bash fans the only ones finding the atmosphere positive. And ofcourse they will. Their attention seeking fav has inserted himself everywhere.

R485 I really like his look too, Joe’s as well.

R490 so hot. Joe’s little Marvel muscles are hot as hell. Perfect toned twink

Joe is hot though

Cute if you ignore the leech

They really fucked up cramming that many people on the float, everyone looks confused half the time.

From now on won't even be opposed to fans being nasty to Bash on Instagram by taking things from here. He deserves it for being such an attention seeker and for alienating the lead.

R496 they should’ve had the mains on the float and bash could walk.

Hadn’t seen this clip posted yet

Kit's collection of Pride shirts is interesting.

R494 I like Bash’s arms there and Joe’s outfit is very cute. Pat’s trousers are something else.

R499 Bash dancing around like an idiot while Kit tries to have a conversation with someone else is killing me.

Why did Bash choose to dress like an extra from a low budget post apocalypse movie

R499 Leech loving being the center of attention.

R499 Where is Joe in this

Doulla retweeted Joe to her Twitter account which is unexpected.

R505 Don't you know Sebastian Croft is the main guy? Joe Locke who?

Bash is annoying and, I will be really disappointed if we don’t get and Joe Kit content. But both Kit and Joe look incredibly hot. I need them both to never wear sleeves again.

R505 that’s the sad thing, the others are just letting bash do his antics and monopolize their time even while joe looks visibly uncomfortable. As he does in r469

Love this for Joe.

For those who thought Yaz at least would be loyal team joe, lol nah

Even the mild ones are turning on Bash. And good! Cause today's behaviour has pissed me off.

R511 Get Joe more drinks!

Bash dancing in front of Kit while Kit doesn't even bother to look at him directly.

R469 He looks uncomfortable

R511 actually Yaz looked like she’s dancing with the other person, not bash.

We can chill with the “Kit ignoring bash” stuff for now because he hasn’t interacted with Joe that we’ve seen once yet so

I’m surprised Yaz and Bash are hanging out so much on the float.

The lead having to stand off to the side because his ex is attention whoring and nobody is bothering to go talk to Joe is not how I expected this day to go.

Starting to think the HS set in general is a hot mess.

I don't like Bash but I don't know what you expect the other cast to do, start beating him up and push him off the float? Obviously they are going to act friendly

R516 then what about this

R520 no one is suggesting they not act friendly. I’m more surprised they’re letting bash pull them away and isolate joe. If they were nice to bash but them immediately went to stand by and chat with Joe, it would be better

R516 She's been dancing with Bash.

Anyway, Bash won't know peace in a minute since people are gonna be pissed off about Joe in the background and no Jot and Kit. Just give the fans a few.

Fuck that attention whore Bash. About to start calling him a leech from now on.

R523 At the end Yaz just turns away. Yaz is team Yaz.

He is getting all the blame which is refreshing because I’m used to joe being cancelled for associating with him (though never Kit, will, or any of the others)

If Maira and her cronies start an anti Bash trend, will be joining in. Hope he gets so much backlash that he ends up deactivating his Twitter account.

Is the float actually moving? Are they really going to let Joe hide away? Who knew Alice and Pat would be with Joe.

I’m not blaming the rest of cast. They’re just trying to navigate an awkward situation and Bash is both more desperate and much better at centring himself in the action. I do feel for Joe though. There is no getting around the fact he’s pushed to the edges of the group

Everyone is turning against Bash except his 2.5 fans, you love to see it

I’m too lazy to scroll back up and find the # but I agree with the guy that said that they all look kind of checked out. I’ve seen Will on his phone a lot.

Bash’s strategy is to stand close to the rest so Joe can’t get in the picture. It’s peak pettiness.

I think she’s 14 R528. She used to post here.

R529 no one is blaming them, just saying they’re not helping joe In the situation. They’re young, in public, and it’s awkward but if joe goes home kind of hurt by them I wouldn’t blame him. I don’t think he will because he seems super even keeled but I would understand if he felt hung out to dry a bit, even while I think they’re in a tough situation

Joe's personality is a disadvantage vs Bash's as far as getting attention. Can't really blame the cast much when Bash won't leave them alone, which makes it impossible for Joe to interact with the rest of them.

At least they know who’s boss.

Will be supporting Joe when he decides to back out from Heartstopper Season 4.

Jesus, Kit’s little slutty hip moves. I’ve been bitching about Bash but I’m going to try to keep my eye on the prize. Queer guys looking fucking hot

R535 I understand that. I think everyone on here is saying what it would be nice for the cast to do - seek joe out and support him - not saying they’re bad people for not doing so.

Anyway lol

R538 Jesus Christ.

R539 Bash is the true definition of a leech.

R538 wish we could see him and joe dancing together but that would require him telling bash to go away and finding joe so seems unlikely

R538 You do not understand. How hard I want to rail the fuck out of Kit.

The ones who thought that Bash might be a bit mature and back off so as to not make things awkward. How wrong did that turn out to be. He's someone who is willing to make Joe's life hell as long as he gets the attention and also everyone is on his side.

Fascinating. Joe is truly a phenomenal actor to look so happy and cute being literally shoved to the sidelines because his bitchy ex is there

JoeKit crumbs

R543 I’m a Joe guy (and his arms are really fucking doing it for me) but Kit’s little hip moves are hot. Guys who can dance, man.

Thinking impure thoughts

Kizzy, cori, and tobie are really showing they’re true friends to joe today

Those little hip moves are a win for me personally, the “Kit is a good dancer” truther.

Where's our guy Bradley?

R549 Prefacing this by saying I'm not blaming any of the non-Bash cast for any of this, but Tobie's been around Bash more than Joe in all of these videos.

Would be great if Kit, having spent the first half the parade with bash, hung around with joe so blatantly bash couldn’t keep using him to get attention and make Joe uncomfortable.

R552 fair. Just kizzy and cori on the list then

The whole cast seems Team Bash. Next we'll be hearing that the attention whore will be playing Charlie Spring next season. The handful of Bash fans can rejoice.

R553 I think the issue is Bash won't go away and they can't tell him to fuck off.

Shows how little they’ve interacted today that fans are celebrating this. Lol at Al, us saying “good luck to bash, Kit and joe will hang out the whole time”

R556 not blaming them for bash, but Kit could just… walk over to joe? And engage him? Any of the cast could.

I've seen at least 3 videos where it looks like Bash is dancing for Daddy Kit and Kit barely looking at him and looking more at Tobie. How is he not embarrassed?

Good for the cast if they prefer going for an attention seeking leech who plays a minor character with less than five minutes screentime on the show. Bodes well for everyone and for the longevity of the show!

R557 Expecting the next video from this angle to be Bash shoving his way into the corner they’re at.

While the lack of JoeKit content so far sucks, I don't think the parade has actually started in any of the clips we've seen as there are no screams from the crowd and the float doesn't seem to be moving. So we're likely just seeing a lot of clips from a short period. Hopefully still plenty of time for Kit to shake off Bash.

Joe and Tobie.

R546 how do they already looks so bored

R554 seems like Kizzy is doing the heavy lifting to me

Tbh at no point does anyone seem to be enjoying Bash that much. It’s just no one is making an effort with Joe. It’s a shitty situation

Bright side, everyone hates Bash now.

R564 cori pulled him in for the group pic he’s on the edges of (bash in the middle of course), and grabbed a drink from a fan to give to him. She was one of the few who reposted his photoshoot too

Even if Bash and Joe were still dating it would be the same Bash being an attention whore and ignoring Joe, so not like his behavior changed. Wish the cast put in more effort to include him though.

538 Kit looks gay as fuck in that clip and I am here for it!

R567 but he wouldn’t feel actively uncomfortable. I don’t blame the cast in that this isn’t their fault. But at some point they have to realize being neutral when one person is too nice to call them out or assert himself and the other is actively trying to be a dick to him isn’t being neutral, it ends up just taking the dickhead’s side

R568 Yeah, that’s easily the gayest Kit has ever looked.

This is hilarious

Don't want anyone to come preaching after the stunt Bash has pulled today. Fuck that attention whore.

The plot twist of Patrick being one of the people making any effort with joe today. For Patrick to feel bad for joe you know the situation is shit

R569 It's a shit situation, but just trying not to blame the cast too much. Bash should have eased up on the attention whoring, but he obviously does not give a shit. On the plus side, we won't have to deal with him much again since he's not going to be doing any promotion with the actual main cast.

I don’t really do Twitter but it’s fair to say even the most forgiving and devoted fans (faux lesbian for eg) and not thrilled that Kit and Joe aren’t together (without mentioning Bash)

Not sure how I'm gonna stop myself from leaving a shitty comment on Bash's IG though.

R575 A lot of the shit stirrers aren't up yet, just give it to the afternoon and Bash is gonna be public enemy #1 again

They’re all trying to get wasted to get through this.

R574 idk why so many of the comments act like people are attacking the cast. Understanding they’re in a tense situation but also realising that the ultimate person fucked over here the most is joe, and wishing he had a bit more in person support, isn’t saying the cast is to blame

All Patrick needs to do is change his shorts and I would have thought he was cosplaying as Joe at DC Pride.

God he’s annoying. I don’t know how everyone is entertaining his antics without rolling their eyes, they truly are good actors. And of course joe is hiding somewhere

But it only really happens on Twitter R576, Instagram and even Facebook are really positive towards him still.

R580

you can see him on the background, looks like he is just messing around on his phone

Kit and Tobie

Whoever at Netflix set this up is a moron. Will clearly doesn't want to be there, the float should have been tiered with the couples on different platforms. This mess where they are all together is horrible for pictures.

Bash is really never more than half a foot away from Kit the whole time.

As much as people tried to say that the last couple of Prides were work and fan service-y, this one feels the most bland and corporate of all 3. Even taking Joe and Bash out of the equation.

I didnt know it was possible to be more annoyed with Bash but here we are. God damn he is insufferable.

Kit isn’t even hanging with Will that much, which is what I would have predicted. Gold star to the DLer who said Bash was going to specifically hang off Kit all day. R584 tbf to Netflix they probably didn’t realise they were going to be dealing with a break up. Bet there is scrambling in the background…

At this point the only person I really care about seeing happy and enjoying pride is joe. He’s the one being isolated purposefully, so I’d like to see him not having to spend the whole event in a corner or on his phone while bash spends all the time with the others.

Quick glimpse of Joe and Kit

Kit, Yaz and Tobie seem to have been talking to and hanging out with Bash most of the time on the float. Will obviously does not want to be up there lol.

R590 Oh, that hug from behind is excellent material.

R590 someone better get a better shot of that

R591 Tobie at least was also talking to Joe

Should have known judging from Bash's petty antics on social media, that he would act this way.

R590 okay well that hug improves things a lot.

That float is fucking terrible. It looks designed by people who have never seen a parade before. You can’t see anyone

I think all this proves to me is that Joe is definitely still hurting from the breakup. I have to assume that the cast wouldn't be mean enough to deliberately exclude him so I think what we're seeing is Joe putting himself on the sidelines so that he doesn't have to engage too much with Bash. Bash is definitely doing his social butterfly thing, right in the centre of the action, I don't know if it's deliberate or if he's just over compensating but it is noticeable and I can definitely see how that would make the situation worse for Joe. Overall I just come away from these pictures and clips feeling really sad for Joe.

I’m getting the strong vibe from this that bash will be in S3, and that he will make joes life a torment.

R590 I can't even enjoy that because of the awkwardness radiating from Joe and Bash acting a complete fool in the background

Have fun kids

R590 That video looks like Kit and Tobie vibing and not really paying attention to Bash before Kit turns to Joe. Does Bash not realize he’s just coming across terribly?
