As a somewhat aside, I went down the rabbit hole today of the whole Sargon v. Jim thing. I knew the Cliff's Notes, seen the highlights vids but absorbed all the actual autism that went down.
One of the streams with Jim and Vee on the Kill Stream really stood out to me. Fuck, we dump a lot of shit on Ralph for his white-trash-red-neck-trashburger-jenkem-huffing ways... but the guy on this stream, not even two years ago is just night and day. Ok is he a big brained intelletcual? No. But he is mentally limber, engaging with Jim and Vee in a way that could at least stand in for a decent discussion about politics and activism in these parts of the internet.
The descent from that, into abject fucking alcoholic bumbling around ideas and 'entertainment'... kinda depressing.
I mean I'm a feels fag, but shit. Get help for your addictions if you've got 'em, kids.
