What happened to Eminem and other rappers like Logic, Lil Wayne, Kayne West, and Jay Z ITTL?
All depends on their characterization and behavior and whatnot. So it all varies on how they are
I don't think that much different from what I saw :/. Not familiar and from what I saw a bit of a glimpse, unsure of what would be different
Sanders Administration- Summer 2019
Summer 2019
"Another cultist goes down... how the hell did this go unnoticed..."
"Good job for Ecuador..."
"And now further proof of what President Sanders did was good..."
As the summer continues on, it was the beginning of election fever was beginning to creep, even with the potential talks to shorten the election season to cause some annoyance. And it was all centered around the Sanders Administration. The successes have caused big changes in the status quo, but at the same time, there was still plenty of progress to go and there would be various more organizations to be examined and undergone. Perhaps the big one here was regarding an infamous scam that also served as a cult of all things. Namely that Keith Allen Raniere, the founder of NXIVM, would be found guilty of all charges. NXIVM was a multi-level marketing company and cult based near Albany, New York and 1998 and 2018, NXIVM developed a following primarily through its personal development seminars, recruiting several celebrities and socialites. However, the organization also faced multiple accusations of systemic sexual abuse of female members by Raniere and members of his inner circle, leading to the arrests of Raniere and other NXIVM members in early 2018. And in the here and now, the organiation would see its end and bring about a new wave of the #MeToo movement, especially with the revelations of prominent women coercing other women into this. Being called #MeTwo movement, it was the second wave of addressing systematic problems against women though now focusing on more obscure aspects and that of women in power abusing other women for their own gain. Beyond that, it was another behemoth to fall in the name of equality and to deal with corrupt institutions and establishments.

At the same time, progress continued for more positive actions being fueled across the world. Over within the summer, Ecuador has become the fifth South American country to legalise same-sex marriage. Authorized by the country's highest court in a landmark case seeking to expand LGBT rights in the small nation. Efrain Soria, President of LGBT rights group the Ecuadorian Equality Foundation, described the ruling as ‘a joy for our entire community and Ecuador’. Now joining Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, Colombia and Uruguay, the hope was promited across by various other nations, including the United States and Canada, who have been cheering and celeberating, working to encourage others to improve. This along with the news of Taiwan that came in back in May, it just served to promote and encourage abroad and going forward. Although same-sex unions have been legal in Ecuador for 10 years beforehand, those in a civil partnership have fewer rights than marriage couples in relation to inheritance and estate laws. In the ruling, the court has instructed congress to pass the legislation making sure that equal treatment is available for all couples under the country’s current marriage law. A decision by the Inter-American Court on Human Rights affirming that countries should allow same-sex couples the right to marry paved the way for the case. This added more pressure onto the other nations to follow suit onto it within the Americas, especially as the United States was putting their weight onto it. This also led to growing support on social media and international cooperation and growth on it.
Celeberations within Quito over the ruling
Meanwhile, with the universal single-payer healthcare system stablized and working to maintain the issues on the pharmeceutical industry, going through the various companies have been going on. In a landmark ruling, an Oklahoma judge has ordered Johnson & Johnson to pay $1 billion dollars for contributing to the state’s opioid crisis though not reaching of the $17 billion dollars. It marks the first time a drug company has been held responsible for the opioid crisis and furthermore, it was noted that it had the involvement of the Sanders Administration through influence along with homegrown grassroots support. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, almost 400,000 people died from an overdose involving opioids from 1999 to 2017, including from prescription and illicit opioids. Court documents say more than 6,000 people have died of painkiller overdoses in Oklahoma alone. The Oklahoma ruling sets the stage for the more than 40 states that are currently pursuing similar claims against drug makers and distributors. And now, a law suit of over 2000 cities, counties and Native American tribes will begin in October with many expecting the Sanders Administration to enact harsher actions on the various companies for the abuse of opioids and additionally, further restraints onto the companies. As such, many predict that the lawsuits going forward would lead to greater losses on the industry or perhaps at least at the heads of such industry. In fact, the falling stock over them led to mass speculations that many of these companies would be potentially finished down the line, with the threats of being divided or liquidated down the line, raising intense excitement.

I would like to see the Expanded Universe to fill in the details not covered in the main story. Do it, please.
I would be too. And I'll definitely be sad to see the end of this amazing TL but excited nonetheless to read the epilogue
Do Polandballs/Countryballs and Polcompballs still exist?
Ditto with Henry Stickman, Fall Guys, and Among Us?
And is there still controversy with voice actors playing characters not of their race?
Ditto with Henry Stickman, Fall Guys, and Among Us?
And is there still controversy with voice actors playing characters not of their race?
Countryballs still exist and I imagine they have some for the new countries here.
Henry Stickman would still exist and probably some of those games.
VA characters and race is, well, complicated.
The way I see it, as long as the actor can do the role well, I personally don't care about the color of the actor's skin.
Likely the same up until the release of the Nintendo Twin. There being a more solid year of development in it compared to OTL's Wii U means more success with it and thus the Switch not released until later. New Horizons would still be released on the Switch.
My guess is that Happy Home Design is expanded to become more of a proper follow-up to New Leaf for the Nintendo Twin here and pushes more the creative limits and capabilities.
I'll try my best with these:
Jay Inslee- He would still likely be the governor
Howard Baker- Assuming this is Howard H. Baker Jr, probably still the same as OTL.
Robin Roberts- Assuming the newscaster, probably the same as OTL.
Whirlpool- Hmmm... probably maintain partnership with SEARS.
Ford- Pretty much got helped out by Gore along with Chrysler and GM when he brought in Lee Iacocca in 2005. Focus on making eco-friendly fuel efficient afforadable cars for people and invest in that with Exxon-Mobil scandal.
Panasonic- Hmm probably same as OTL for most part.
Sony- Initially did worse than OTL. Xbox 360's increased presence in Japan and the debacle of Spider-Man 3's cancellation forced them to sell the Spider-Man film and television rights to Marvel/Disney (including Spectacular Spider-Man). Furthermore, the rise of Project MAY inspired the rise of music artists to begin become more independent and free of Sony's record chokehold, especially as it could see to some fights with the Sanders Administration in charge. Still prominent, but facing mroe troubles.
Viacom- Probably doesn't remerge with CBS like in OTL 2019 out of concerns of companies/corporations growing too big. Meanwhile, still fail in their lawsuit against Youtube and similar lawsuits against prominent websites like Veoh and so on. Not sure what other troubles they may face.
Kevin Durant- Still doing well in basketball I reckon.
Sanders Administration- Autumn 2019
Autumn 2019
"The future is in the youth after all... time to remind leaders who's in charge!"
"Looks like 2020's race is gonna be interesting..."
As the leaves changed colors, things began dying down. That was usually the case after all. Children returning to school and people returning to a sense of normalcy and grind after the summer. However, this year was different. While there was a call for return to normalcy or maintaining things as is, one that was growing due to the increased satisfaction from the Sanders Administration and the status quo, there is a growing call amongst others for more radical changes. More specifically, the beginning of a series of "Global Climate Strikes". While the Sanders Administration has been improving leaps and bounds the quality of life for Americans and other administrations have been doing similar, there was still a somewhat prominent stance of those who resisted against the need of such radical change. As such, these people were viewed as obstacles for changes, which prompted the need for such large strikes. In order to get the attention of the people and to maintain the spirit of change and progress for a better tomorrow. Several millions of people took part in the strikes around the world, especially students who saw it as needed for their future. Various world leaders applauded and supported them, with President Sanders especially and using it to hold accountable various Congress members, governors and state government officials who have been impeding or hesitant in applying such measures. Similar measures and support were shown, such as Prime Ministers Corbyn of the UK and Jack Layton of Canada showing their support along with protections regarding potential retaliation from state officials through schools or work places. More and more, this was supported across the world and plans were being drawn to try and deal with the climate emergency, trying to figure out the best ways to implement along with the various approaches and potential problems. One notable sight was in one of the largest marches over in the United States, there was former President Al Gore there within the front lines to show his support. The media was spreading and the fires for change were ablaze, much like the colors of the autumn trees.

Perhaps this was also matched over in the political battlefield of 2020. While 2019 would see Layton and his NDP be voted in, this time managing to secure a rare majority vote for them, it was notable in Layton planning to retire to politics after this final term for them, preparing for his successor. However, the focus was now on the United States. While Sanders stood a good shot at retaining the Democrat candidacy, there were some strong challengers, such as Elizabeth Warren joining the fray. Rumors also spread that the Vice President Tammy Baldwin may be resigning and President Sanders may have a different running mate. For the Republican Party, it was relatively quiet though some surprises came in Lisa Murkowski, Susin Collins and Olympia Snowe being some of the most prominent choices. Many saw this as a sign of the growing change over within the Republican party though also many note there is a relative lack of young blood within the GOP. However, the competition laid in the potential of a Green New Deal being shown along with other issues such as the growing importance of confronting police brutality and the systemic racism within it. Some people were unsure on who would win though many have picked Snowe or Murkowski as potential winners though unsure who would be running mates alongside their potential policies when it came to the GOP. Some within major media was the spread of subtly preferring more the "moderate" candidate over the mroe radical ones like Sanders though 2020's other elections were showing louder and more focus on local, state and congressional governments. More and brand new ideas were being flooded as the people were getting powers. Legislation ideas of term limits on Congressmen and even to Supreme Court members as well, which created some fascinating ideas. Overall, it got people more and more into politics.
