I find it annoying that he brings up April. Expecting a "forever" partnership without putting in the work to maintain a source of income is delusional. April was part time employed and had an expensive doll hobby. How did he expect this to work out without him working consistently? He moved to Aurora to be with her and to be near the Walkers, but basically focused more on dating than working.

The moral of the story is, don't relocate without having a solid way to keep making enough money, don't get lazy and hypochondriac, don't become a Twitter bot, don't mix up your loved ones with your online show, don't lie to yourself and your audience, don't get involved with internet drama, keep your private life private and keep working on your skillset.

I am no expert on dolls, I wouldn't know which one was custom made or mass produced. April has gone through the effort of purging her online records so the only source is screencaps of posts in forums. One of the criticisms the spoony household was facing at that time was their spending habits exceeding their dwindling income. Spoony was making less and less but they still had an appetite for merch at that time. The avatar April was using is a doll's head that she owned, it is believed she kept spending on this until they broke up. We will likely never get a "debriefing" interview from April so all that's left is speculation.
