Over the past month or so I have been very unhappy with YouTube as a platform and I wanted to talk about that in a video. It is somewhat loosely scripted compared to a lot of my videos but I wanted to get it out and finished before my situation with Fake Friends 2 progressed/changed and also wanted to express how I am feeling about all this without being neurotic about refining the script too much. Thanks so much everyone for the support, especially in stressful times such as "UMG might sue me because I refused to let my documentary be taken down" haha.

I have finished the script for and recorded audio for a webcomic review as well. Should have that up by the end of the month, either full release or a patron early release, I'm not sure. It's a super weird and fun comic and I have a lot of pages from it I think look really cool saved to showcase in the video so look forward to that.

Thanks!

youtube: bad?

Couple notes are that the "my friend likes your lips" tweets I show screenshots of in this video may have been in response to a video I posted on twitter and not due to YouTube. I have no idea though and never interacted with those people enough to find out. Most or all of the other gross comments I post here, even though a lot were anonymous, I do feel like in one form or another stem from my YouTube channel. Also I realized that one time while we did a big streaming event for Critical Bits one person in twitch chat did call us ugly nerds or something. But I think that is absolutely the only time I've ever gotten anything even coming close to harassment off of the show. Unlike YouTube where I get weird or gross or angry messages daily or almost daily. Haha.

Waitwaitwait... Fake Friends Episode Two is down? Noooooo Every couple weeks, I get an unpleasant reminder, like this one, about why I use youtube-dl to backup *everything* I like on YouTube.

I'm happy that you're back :) I normally don't comment but your content inspires me to do stuff and has helped me with my anxiety in the past. I would love to support your work on kickstarter and it's great to see that you have found other creative outlets.
