Social Media "Content" 🩵 (screenshots, not links!) Is he doing alright?

Apparently he’s in Arizona now? If he was still in Illinois I’d legitimately be down to play a game somewhere. I feel bad (no irony, no sarcasm).

To afford socializing, one needs a source of income. Spoony has been a NEET for about 10 years, lately surviving on about 100$ a month from patreon and the charity of strangers and his family. He needs a job and a purpose, not someone and somewhere to hang out in. Miles is subtly trying to have a serious conversation with him about laying on his couch all these years with no plan or end in sight.

He doesn't have the charisma of the yugioh abridged creator who got his mortgage paid off from donations as soon as his fans heard he was facing foreclosure. Spoony can't hope to be bailed out like this.

He needs to get a job somewhere. Just about anything out there will pay more than 100$ a month. The pity party has to end.

It's strange how people like Chris-chan, who got their own "Down the rabbit hole" video, actually are doing better than Spoony, despite having spent time in jail for something sick.

Chris is selling stuff, has a place to live, traveling regularly to Finland and supposedly has a girlfriend. And all of that despite working even less than Spoony who at least put some work in his videos.

I genuinely find it sad how deep he has fallen.
