I am still of the firm belief that Nicky is another skinwalker and never was a family man and isn't a "real" degenerate.
The current degen saga is making my point for me. Cause while yes he has said and presumably done some things that are degenerate, they aren't noteworthy in the big scheme of things. So he is an alcoholic and has done molly, to quote a scholar of the ages "You'll Cowards Don't Even Smoke Crack", people get prescribed harder drugs for breaking a leg for God's sake. Most psychonauts would have moved on to other stuff by now. Also molly is the gayest drug on earth.
Then there is the gay bars and whoring his wife out part. So to discover himself he goes to a gay bar that often hosts events where non gay people attend, usually to go swinging. And he goes to a swinging resort that's pretty much for old washed up couples that are done with their relationship but don't want to go through a divorce.
You can add his dropping performance on youtube and the lowering of quality but to be fair he was always low quality it's just for a brief second he had a bit of passion doing it which made up for it.
Add all of this together and you have the bare minimum of being a degenerate, no real effort is expended and no real drive towards this is perceived.
Trying, as many have in the past, to claim that gay90 isn't a gay bar and that its some sort of mainstream venue for everyone in the community goes to have good ordinary fun doesn't really work. Its a gay bar. Dead stop. Pretending that its not is just retarded.
Then there is the way Nick recently tried to spin himself. That evil right wing incel prudes were denying him the right to go out to "a bar" at his age.
And, yes, we are all supposed accept Nick's new cope for all this stuff. That while he is doing all things, he is a monogamous family man devoted to his wife. And yes, Nick gets really angry when people don't blindly accept whatever story he lays down as his new "truth". And yeah, you can invent a thousand reasons why Nick going to gay90 and going to Hedonism is about saving his marriage or dealing with the consequences of a long-term marriage, but the point of this place is to laugh at people rather than to invent new copes for middle aged alcoholics.
The problem with making excuses for Nick at this point is that you could engage in the same sort of excuse building and sympathy farming for any cow on the farms. Has for example everyone misunderstood "poor" Ethan Ralph? That he isn't really a degenerate. Just a hard-working guy trying to build a loving new marriage in Mexico?
What damages Nick isn't just what he does, but his constant nonsensical copes, his lashing out at any clip/comment about him, the stupid retards he hangs out with like that Camelot guy, the weird thirstposting he & hugbox engage in over photos of old women,
As Nick well knows, the way to stop getting attention is to stop being a cow. Be boring. Stop engaging in the sort of behavior that people are going to laugh at. Stop the cope cycle. Stop making long speeches about how you are not paying attention to your critics followed by long rants that make it clear that you are watching every single thing said about you followed by seething. Stop playing the victim. Either be a swinger and own it......or stop pretending in public that its about building a better marriage. Either stop having your wife accept gifts of leather underwear from randos or be honest that you are in an open marriage to a sleazy wannabe trailer trash slut.
Being a cow and then complaining about being treated like a cow isn't going to get Nick anywhere.
