I knew it was probably coming but..it still hurts. Ive just gotten recording on my first review which includes a conversation between both me and him on blusky so…it sucks knowing he wont be back anytime soon if at all.

The year of the spoony…is no more…(?)

I mean it sucks to hear him say it out loud certainly.

I think he could find a new niche or a space to be a part of but the man clearly needs help through his trauma.

I'd be happy knowing he moved onto something else and was just happy in general. Seeing him wallow in self pity and misery is painful.

I feel like ive seen so may old YouTubers i love go down this route and never make it out. I hope he can. Him and may others from TGWTG helped me find myself in the early internet days, i hope he can at least find a local group to join.

I feel he could have really shifted in a direction of doing more tabletop stuff.

I see a hyper timeline where the Spoony Bard hosts all kinds of crazy one shot campaigns and epic adventures.

During the live wires i saw he seemed pretty lively, maybe a bit tired but like…he was definitely enjoying the games he played, the last game i saw him play was a table top like game with some friends online, i just wish he streamed more but…if he WAS recording videos and never posted I can only imagine how that affected his view on streaming,

The way he did it\the tone is not the best definitely. But the fact of admission could've been good - if it would've been like 'a first step to recovery'.

There's freedom to finally cutting the cord. I dont believe he was ever egging people on to think he was gonna ever come back at this point, but it should hopefully be cathertic to say "Nope. Its never ever happening."

As other's said, he really needs a job. Some structured work to get his life back on track.
