Summer Games Fest is tonight at 5 ET I will be covering and playing games, hopefully with @Cyan_Baroness.

I've also been given a BIG mandatory all hands announcement from our exec team (I didn't know we had one of those) To read after the show. See you all there!

Hey all,

Wanted to check in one time real quick out of character to just say I appreciate you all.

Some of you know I've been in a state of social burnout which isn't great for a streamer cause being social is kind of an important part of streaming, and streaming in many ways was my mental health relief so lately I have not been in good shape. Honestly I've been barely approachable and its just been rough for me, and my friends.

Some of you will notice that I have stepped away from a couple of social engagements and I am focusing on something new for my stream moving forward. I want to go back to focusing on performing. That was what I wanted my streaming to be. And thankfully I think I have a fun way to do that again. I don't know if it will be entertaining or good or if anyone will even care, but i want to do it. I see people like doodybeard out there saying "screw it, I'm going to be unapologetic me, and make the content I want" and I want to live up to that. I'm constantly inspired by that and can't wait for you all to see what I have cooked up.

With that said, for at least a little while, while I heal, a lot of my online interaction will be in character. Just know and understand, I appreciate you all for the support, and friendship, I will be back at some point. I will heal, Come back stronger, and this all leads up to the month of November this year where I will be fully celebrating my 10 years of streaming. See you all soon. Announcement coming soon.

When there's nothing left worth fighting for ....

You fight to find something to fight for.

It'd be a shame if it's already too late. Either way. 11 days.

[JustPlainHouse @Justplainhouse]

came here to say i am running late cause i keep getting distracted and should be live around 1:30, about 15 mins from now, but I also feel the need to say this.

people need to shut up some times and mind your business, we don't need your commentary if you are going to be a dick about it. and that goes for everyone and everything.

Be kind to people
Be kind to business (they are run by people)
Be kind to corporations (they may be run by rich elitists, but they are better positioned, even if it isn't as much as we would like, to give people the opportunity to provide for themselves and their family)
Be kind to products (they were made by people, who worked hard to bring that product to you)
Be kind to services (they are operated by people doing things so you don't have to)

If you have a legitimate complaint that you researched and determined that what you have learned needs to be public knowledge then yes, be kind, but do what you have to. There is however, no need to spew baseless information in a public forum just so you can be a part of a conversation that has nothing to do with you.

people of a certain age remember PC video games on CDs. We treated these CD's like gold. to the point that most us probably still have a spindle of CD's that we refuse to throw out cause of how much value we applied to a 25 cent piece of plastic. Whats funny is, in my spindle, I have a game cd for a game i REALLY want to play. its right there....I can install it....at least until it asks for the cd key....yup, lost that over a decade ago. we valued the wrong thing. say what you will about drm, the digital age is a god send compared to that cd/key crap.

So, as I watching the twitch stream of NASA's Coverage or the lunar flyby, and It made me realize that i am too old for this lol.

I say that cause i watched as chat was filled with some of the worst commentary about nonsense in the world, people saying things just to piss people off. It made me realize, that the culture of twitch is not one I want to be a part of.

This doesn't mean Im stopping, I'm still going to be out here trying to be an oasis amongst the nonsense. I don't know if I am. but somewhere there are other 40+ year old gamers who are looking for a real place to chill and just game. Yeah, we can screw around and say dumb stuff, but we don't need to feed the nonsense with the intent to piss off, we just want to have fun. If you are one of those people, well I hope to see you around the purple brand some time.

to provide a little detail, and to not worry everyone, I SHOULD be ok.

I suffer from Lymphedema which is basically just semi permanent swelling, in my case, in my legs. As the swelling applies pressure to the skin, it can get brittle and break open into a venous wound. I've been in treatment for 1 on my left leg for close to a year now and i has shown very little progress for healing. Today i had to report that a new wound opened up on the right leg. When they entered it into my records, they called it wound 4. Its the 4th wound that has opened up in the last year. both wounds, despite the one that was in ongoing care being in a soft cast for a week, were heavily infected. There was a genuine conversation about needing to admit me to the hospital for emergency IV anti-biotics, and possible prep for surgical options to repair the wounds or...well, lose them. i made the joke once or twice, but it was the first time in real conversation the A word came in regards to my legs.

Between that and seeing that i am up to 4 wounds, it really got to me cause i don't see a solution any more that results in me returning to a quality of life that i had before this. Right now the solution is to sit in a pair of balloon pants for 2 hours a day to message and reduce the swelling, leaving me no time to really do anything else. and even then, the positive results are VERY short lived. I'm trying to take it one day at a time, and not worry about what tomorrow looks like but its hard when this is what today looks like. I'm looking for the sunny day in the forecast but it's just not there.

I hope this helps explain that while, yes i have depression and yes my mental health in general is pretty bad (learning more about rejection sensitivity dysphoria and yeah, may need to have that conversation in the future) but some of the mental pain you have all seen me in lately stems a lot from this whole situation. I wish i was a beacon of strength, I wish i was someone people looked to and said "Wow for everything going on they really are keeping strong through all this." I'm not any of those things. And its ok. Cause if I am doing anything I am surviving (a catch phrase as of late) and maybe if anything I am showing that as bad as it can be, you don't need to keep the smile on to survive. You don't need to be cheerful to survive. I don't know what tomorrow brings, I don't know if I will be happy or sad or just, the same. But I know the only way to find out is to survive. So I survive.

had mental breakdown in doctors office. things are worse. no one was there to help me process it. now its right back to work. i can't even be there for myself to process it.

[JustPlainHouse @Justplainhouse]

Hello. I'm not dead. I think most of you knew that as I have popped up from time to time, but uh, Yeah, I haven't really been myself lately. And there is a bit of a reasoning for that and while I shouldn't say all of it, for those of you concerned heres whats been going on.

So coming out of my new years eve stream, I hit a wall with my depression. It wasn't just a content creator life induced depression, it was a, financial, medical, relationship, everything type of depression.

I fought through. I tried to pop up from time to time and I pushed to come back strong in Feb.

I didn't. It was weak but I had a great birthday weekend that made me think ok we back.

But we weren't. Even this weekend I tried running a multiworld for people, and it crashed and burned so hard cause I didn't have the brain capacity to see a major mistake I was making. So I took a long look at what was going on, and it took a stupid roblox game to help me see that things need to change.

Now I've made commitments through that game that I need to honor that run through this Friday afternoon. Once that is done, I am going to take a few weeks to do something I haven't in a while. Stream. For. Me. Coming back on Friday and this weekend, I will finally be playing some Crimson Desert. When I finish that I plan on working my way back to Final Fantasy 7 remake and rebirth. Nights with @SilverSnowQT and @MyuMochii will still be happening. We will still be working on the respective multiworlds I'm in, and Roll for Multiworld will happen, but it will happen when my brain is back in a better place. When I am in a better place.

Thank you all for you patience, I know every post here lately are long and explanative but this is really the only place I have right now to get this all out. I will see you all soon. I promise.
