Oh wow, the man who spent most of his internet career being overly critical and dismissive of any concept of higher power that gives meaning to an otherwise futile, finite biological existence is now a miserable self-obsessed depressive? Color me shocked. Shocked I tell you.
 
I unsubbed from this guy around the time he and June tried to rip off Re:View with their boring normie takes on films. His viewership seemed fine at the time, so can anyone explain to me what changed from then to now?
He started doing videos of cryptids and conspiracies, had a thing going on with an Australian chick and they made a podcast together but then he dumped her which I'm sure cost some subscribers (on top of the subs he must've lost when breaking up with June). But in general I think he's just victim of the natural YouTube cycle. Every channel eventually has their reach die out and become nowhere near as popular as before. Some people are smart and are able to change their content up to stay afloat, live off of merchandise or other endeavours, or made good decisions early so they basically don't have to worry about money or the numbers for a very long time, but not everyone manages to do that.

Not just that, but he posted the vapid, audio-only podcast episodes as videos on his channel, overshadowing his actual video content because HEY people don't "listen" to podcasts on YouTube retard

The story writes itself doesn't it.
 
Word of advice:

Youtube is a hobby.

If you get a bunch of people interested enough to watch thats great, if you are able to make it profitable then thats wonderful.....

....but its still a fucking hobby

Tying your future prospects and aspie-rations to "making it big" on youtube is as fucking retarded as betting everything on your fucking mcdonalds happy meal toy collection.

A normie 9-5 job will offer far more pay, far more potential for advancement, and far more satisfaction even if its in fucking sewage works than endlessly and miserably pissing into the youtube void hoping to go viral and then hoping this viralness translates to actual profit.

Just do it for your own enjoyment, and if you no longer enjoy it then fucking stop and find something better to do.
i love how old youtubers have this weird entitlement where it’s like “oh where did it all go” mentality. either change your content or improve upon it. nobody is entitled to watch you, it can disappear as fast as it came
 
Man, that decline of the alpha polygamous life-style hits like a meth withdrawal, huh?
All Dick Masterson's fanboys should take note and understand this is the reality of that edgy 'forever 21' nihilist lifestyle for everyone who isn't an insulated millionaire like Dick, but like Greg they won't figure it out until it's already too late.

Too bad so sad, better luck next life.
 
111 patrons at time of writing. Even if one assumes all of those are on the lowest tier for three fiddy, they pay per video - meaning he has plenty of control on how much he'll make this month.
1050 bucks at the very least if he puts out three videos. That ought to pay for all of the basic cost of living for a single person if he does not expect to live the "glamorous Youtuber" lifestyle.

People who have no obvious opportunity to improve their financial situation get some slack from me. This guy knows to the exact dollar how much he'll get if he puts out a video, and even if it takes him 18 hours that's still an hourly wage of at least 20 bucks - he just doesn't feel like it cause of muh mentalz. Fuck 'im.

He still has nearly 500k subs. I watch channels that literally have a thousandth of that and seem to be going strong. His last video got 64k views. Is he universally demonetized or something? WTF is he even crying about?

I don't get how these people make bank off of youtube and not invest some of it back into themselves by using that money to learn an actual skill they can fall back on when their time in the sun is over. These faggots think they're above actual work because they're an "artist" or an "entertainer" but you're really not and now Greggy is gonna have to work as a wagie.
 
Human beings are pretty pathetic really, we're week, slow, practically blind and deaf. We've got no claws or fangs, yet we've completely dominated this earth. We've achieved all this because by design or accident we've got the greatest weapon in all the whole animal kingdom, the human prefrontal cortex and of all of it's gifts it grants us it's the ability to adapt that is most responsible for our success.

We can change not just ourselves but our environment too. We are the masters of change, so when some faggot sits in his room pitying himself and the hand he's been dealt, yet refuses to change then I have no sympathy. I understand that there are aspects of our lives that can't be changed, a quadriplegic probably isn't wining many 100m sprint medals but you should never confuse the realty of the situation with the bullshit we make up in our heads.

If you need money then get a job. All companies like Amazon require form you is that you be a warm body. It's horrible work but is it better than being homeless right? You want to lose weight then just do it. Depression getting you down, then change you life. These thing may seem like insurmountable tasks but they aren't. It's all in your head, every road block and every problem.

To refuse realistic change is to deny human nature. People like Greg sat in his cave while others explored what was over that hill. People like Greg have never discovered anything or improved the world around them in anyway.

Could be that a large chunk of them are inactive subs. Could also be that YouTube kills his reach because of inactivity, so people don't get videos in their suboxes and his channel doesn't get recommended to anyone.

I'm not defending him BTW, I do think he is very melodramatic and he's got it better than most, but YouTube is a cruel mistress.
 
I can't stand self pity, "I no longer have the strength to dig myself out of this", nigger what dose that even mean? You had the strength to throw this gay pity party on the Internet, you've get the audacity to wallow in pointless existence you call a life. Get a fucking grip. Nobody going to help you but yourself, and if you can't then you should just put yourself out of both our and your own misery.

There's been like 100 billion humans that have ever lived, though war, disease, disaster, famine and they still managed to get though it so they could spawn your faggot ass. Your ancestors went though the fucking plague and two world wars just so you could sit here an complain about not being able to afford your fucking Internet.
My grandfather at 8 years old used to wake up with a layer of frost on his blanket, was given the chore of lighting the house stove at 5 am. He got up to do that, use an outhouse in the dark at 5 am in 0 degree weather then had to feed the cows. (You only got a hot breakfast after the animals were fed) At 17 he got to swim in the English Chanel on Christmas Eve thanks to a Nazi torpedo. The man never complained about anything except his grandchildren not going to church often enough.

I honestly think all these whiny assholes should be forced to live in a wood stove heated cabin for a month in winter to get some perspective in their life. Just forcing them offline for a month would do wonders for their mental health.
