Imagine being his wife. No wonder she looks constantly anxious and is on so many pills.

I hate to be the cynic, but I have found that most personalities have their own messy issues. It is not restricted to the online ones.

Call it Human Condition, Original Sin, or what have you, people are all broken in some way, and it just takes the right conditions and poor personal choice set to expose them.

While Kayla might be dismayed at Nick's condition and current situation, she is not blameless or without her own potential to spaz out. Her personal fears are valid to her and perhaps others, but she could slip down her own slope as quick as Balldoman.

All they have to do is keep their weirdness in check and not let the genie of degeneracy out of the bottle.

My post is in relation to Nick never learning a skill that toddlers develop: Speaking up when they want something. While Lady Rackets definitely has her flaws, Nick has displayed exceptional ones that give me some amount of pity for everyone else living in that household. It can't be easy having a partner that complains about everything, but never actually gets to the point.

It's official. Looking forward to this.

What? Can j get a bit more co text on this?

Sure. Two Superchats asked for birthday toasts because he missed their birthdays last year. He said something like "Oh, I must have been at the art show." Chat had to remind him that he was banned on YT a year ago. I haven't fact-checked the dates but that sounds about right. He seems to have blocked it from his memory.

Is this like, a joke, or...? Maybe he just said the thing about the death penalty to own josh epic style in their argument?

Nope he was serious.

He's completely guideless on faith, politics - everything. I read closely the post recently (sorry forget which poster) that said that the problem with going rogue on your religion is that you lose all foundation for almost anything. As something of a cafeteria Christian myself, it was compelling, particularly for Nick. For example:

Life Issues:
At least Catholics are consistent. No abortion and no capital punishment. The sanctity of life must always be prioritized. Nick used to proselytize this. Now?

1) Capital Punishment - I'm paraphrasing "Well if we're gonna have capital punishment we should include pedos because they destroy the kids who will have no life." I wonder how all the survivors of child sexual abuse who have gotten help and built up their lives would feel about that death sentence from Nick.

2) Medical Abortion - He's recently said that it's far different from a medical procedure and should not be regulated by the government.

Libertarian Issues:
His recent rants on Trump effectively being a monarch are baffling to me. For someone who previously believed all government should be small and highly limited by checks, balances, the Constitution, the press, whatever...Nick's current stand is basically this: there is nothing in the Constitution that limits Presidential authority. Hence, no lawsuits or vote by Congress that he's unfit to serve (his Twitter 14th Amendment take) should stand. (He does leave some room for SCOTUS to ring in.)

Anyway, this thread is not the place to discuss politics, particularly. My point is that he's totally lacking in any internal consistency re morality, politics, and cultural issues. I know, a blinding flash of the obvious.

That Lawst in Law guy looks exactly how you would expect Drexel's top ALPHA MALE janny to look.

Tim the Canadian got played so hard. He's also a covid vax cattle despite doing remote desk work. I don't feel sorry for him for his association with Drex and all the negative implications it brings.

It is baffling. I know many couples where one of them abruptly stopped communicating after formalising the relationship. It really puts Nick's 'I will be us' tattoo in a more interesting light. Does Nick see his needs and interests encompassing all their time ans Kayla and the kids (along with his audience) should be happy subsisting on his beneficence?

I got the impression that most of the time Nick and Kayla were pursuing their own lines of interest. Nick chasing Hedonism and working on the channel and Kayla schooling, watching Star Trek, chauffering, and building LEGO. The times Nick would mention spending time together would be weird day trips to Minneapolis (and we know how those are... gay bars, plastic surgery, and the like...) or joining Kaylas latest Netflix binge for an hour.

Super power level, but my dad spent the last three weeks he was alive completely alone in the hospital because of the initial super serious Covid lockdowns. We were flatly denied any opportunity to see him under any circumstances.

That makes me feel guilty in comparison. My dad went out a few years before corona funtime from his aorta deciding to explode and I'm pretty sure that's how he would have liked to go instead of dying in a hospital bed. Still have dreams where he appears and it makes me think "where the hell have you been, old man?" and then I wake up and am sad.

That's terrible to hear. I recently lost my father, a year and a half ago, so I can empathize. His decline was gradual (over the course of a month) and we were lucky to live in a state that didn't enforce extended lockdowns, so I was able to visit him up until the end. I can't imagine not being able to see him during those days. Even as much as I got to see him during that month, I still wish I had one last moment, to give him one last hug, but to not be there are at all... that concept is horrific to me. Prayers to you and your family.

It's not about how much you drink, it's about how you drink. If it's every day, you likely are an alcoholic.

And what's wrong with generally accepted definition?

"I can stop at any moment", says every alcoholic.

When consumption of alcohol starts negatively affecting your life and you don't stop it's a sign of being an alcoholic.

Craving only appears when you stop. If you never stop you don't crave alcohol because you are drinking it.

You never stop being an addict.

If you are actively looking for reasons to drink \ drink more and blame others for it, it's a sign of being an alcoholic.

Hit the nail on the head. For anyone who understands alcoholism, those were instant red flags. The last one in particular where he brags he'll drink even more if you express concern sounds like his anti-social personality shining through. He's got a gaggle of sycophantic viewers who will enable him anyways.

Nick's loss is Sean's gain, I guess.

A year ago, Nick would have had Null on to discuss this topic and he would have had plenty of eyes on him.

 

[Illuminati Order Official]

Just wait! He will tell you about how he gave up Everquest in his college days! If he wanted to, he could TOTALLY do it! He has said that is his wife asked him to stop streaming, he would the next day.

I'm not going to dismiss psychological addictions but addictions that are both physical and psychological are much worse - not only you get psychological effects of the withdrawal, you are also tormented physically.

A year ago, Nick would have had Null on to discuss this topic and he would have had plenty of eyes on him.

Going through his backlog of content from 3-4 years ago is depressing. Nick was packed with guests and topics that I found intersting.

Greer, Tonka, Big Brain Panel, Chad Dads, and reading legal briefs. Yes, it was a lot more rambling and Nick was not as comfortable in front of the camera, but damn it, I liked the topic and company at the time.

For a freeze peach person who 'will have anyone on his show' Nick is doing a bang-up job of ignoring Null's issues with censorship. Why? All of his poor decisions trace back to Dick, Vito, and Balldo.


Edit:

@Illuminati Order Official I do not mean to trivialize non-substance abuses. Merely to point out Nick's deflection is: 'I totally overcame this one addiction so I could do it for all others!' This is the logic of 'I have a black friend/vote Labour/support gays so I cannot be a bigot!'

My only guess why Nick continues to work with Dick is because Dick and the lolsuit with Maddox is what started his online career. Without Dick, there would be no Nick Rekieta show. It's almost like Nick "owes" Dick his allegiance.

His audience largely doesn't like Dick (for many reasons) but Nick will do the opposite of what people ask of him, because "Fuck you, no one can tell me what do to." Dick is nothing but a liability to Nick at this point. Because he simps for Dick so much, I'm sure it's driven many people from wanting to be guests on his show. The only ones that will remain are the orbiters like Legal Mindset, Uncivil Law (also an extremely unlikable person), Camelot and Legal Vices. Also Branca, but that's because Branca gives no fucks. I agree with you, if Nick just distanced himself from Dick (which would also distance himself from Vito), then it would solve a lot of issues.

I, for one, consider it a good thing that Nick isn't hosting this, and Sean is willing to pick up the ball. If hosted today, Nick would probably bring Dick and Vito on, and it would be gay AF. The California contingent would drone on and on about how stunning and brave Keffals is. Nick is already beginning to ape some of their talking points as to the problems the Farms is experiencing. It's all Null's fault. Not psychopathtic troons or anything of that sort.

Sean is free of the Molesterson cult, AFAIK, and that makes all the difference in the world.

I also think it's pretty based of Sean to openly opine that Nick's appeal hasn't got a prayer in hell. The "Pope" ain't gonna be happy with that, or having Null on. Are we seeing Sean break from Lawtube, or is it too early to tell? I might have to change my bet from Kurt to Sean.

Because he's a narcissist. Nick can't ever say, "Look I want X, Y, and Z." There is a podcast called Quite Frankly on youtube that discusses Howard Stern's downfall. They have a series with a guy who works with NPD people who discusses Howard's NPD and covert narcissism. It's fascinating and after listening to it all of the shit Nick does makes so much sense. Lady Rackets isn't completely innocent but I feel for her.

I have a feeling that Sean doesn't like Dick very much. The few times Sean and Dick are on the same stream with Nick, Sean just checks out and stays silent. Some of Nick's best streams in the last year or two have been with him and Sean.

Sean works a day job as a lawyer in criminal defense. Few entertaining people can successfully manage themselves as self-employed individuals. Fewer still who are 'creative types'. I have learned I would much ch rather have a part-time entertaine I enjoy stay part-time to ensure co sister quality. Much like the days of early computing, scarcity forced ingenuity, but now everyone writes spaghetti code and games come out half-baked and far from optimised.

The external pressures of family expectation, career, and the like acted as guard rails for Nick and do the same for Sean. I hope he does not become exceptional. Nothing against Sean, but I hope he stays just a wee bit too poor online to make the switch.

I agree about current-day Nick, but I do not entirely resent him. I used to watch him for content largely sourced from here. Now I just watch MATI and Sean has filled some of the legal commentary itch.

 

[Balldo's Gate]

Has to be one of the biggest dickhead time-waster moves I’ve ever heard of.

It also seems like the kind of move which would piss off a trial judge, but luckily in this case Nick has had professional interactions with the judge in the past and there doesn't seem to be any love lost there already, so I guess he doesn't have much to lose.

Other than a lot of money, obviously.

My only guess why Nick continues to work with Dick is because Dick and the lolsuit with Maddox is what started his online career. Without Dick, there would be no Nick Rekieta show. It's almost like Nick "owes" Dick his allegiance.

He's a slavish fan of Dick. Famously, the reason he even started on YouTube was that he wanted to comment on the lawsuit on Dick fan groups on Facebook but couldn't post the videos directly because they were too long or something.

 

[John Andrews Stan]

Nick has said several times that he hates having employees to delegate anything to, because he is repulsed by the thought of having to actually explicitly give orders or express his wants. He'd prefer if people around him could simply read his mind and do what he wants done.

I’m going to give Nick the benefit of the doubt, because I have some experience with this. It’s not malicious.

Spoiler

People with attention allocation challenges, who can barely manage their own tasks and projects, feel drained just thinking about managing employees. I’ve battled with this myself, and the only ‘cure’ is finding staff who are comfortable and fully competent taking control — the proverbial coordinator with a clip board. The relief when you find someone like this, who does not need to be told what to do every day or have their hand held, is indescribable. Those people are hard to find but they are worth every penny.

Incompetence is the norm but since Nick is a trust fund kid he can afford to pay more for capability (and hire a recruitment agency to spare him the nightmare of searching for one). These are not insurmountable issues.

 

[SpergioLeonne]

Right, because like with any job, if your boss tells you something you don’t like, it’s faux pas to try to go over their head without evidence of them smoking crack on the clock or something similar.

That’s the way I read it.
