+ accounts on youtube, a merch store, discord servers, twitch, and an instagram. just for us. absolutely insane.
- he’s shown us that he’s prone to impulsiveness and anger. THIS IS NORMAL!!! please remember that dream, too, is a person. he is not an idol, he is not a god. +

- he makes a lot of the same mistakes on twitter— that is, offending/hurting people in his anger. and i agree, he should know the influence he has over his thousands of fans.

- he hits milestones every other week. he was at 4 million just two, three weeks ago. and now he’s at 6 mil, about to hit 7.
- that kind of growth is insane. getting 6 million followers in less than a year is INSANE.

- learn how to deal with everything in time. they adjust, slowly, to the fact that they aren’t regular people with regular old opinions anymore. their words hold a LOT of power.

- please, give him some time. i have no doubt that he will make mistakes in the future. he is not perfect and he will never be perfect. he will, inevitably, mess up.
