Jerma985 - Because fuck it, let’s get a Jerma thread going. Meow.

ita said:
It’s probably rude for a complete stranger like me to even speculate, but since we’re on the gossip and speculation forum: what if Jerma is very sick? The actual cancer type of sick. That could explain why he’s letting his hair grow out, as some people historically do that if the possibility of chemotherapy and hair loss is on the table. He did also cancel his year-end awards stream this year in lieu of spending more time with his family, is entering his retirement already despite being only 38, and has possibly had more health problems lately judging by his new reclining chair set up, less face cam, and overall more muted energy.

Or maybe he and his girlfriend are having a baby and he’s got other priorities, or maybe he’s having identity issues and thinks he’s a true and honest real woman, or maybe it’s nothing at all and he’s just embracing becoming an old retired Vegas man that doesn’t give a fuck.

god i hope so. but then he'd probably be losing weight and not getting fatter. i'm pretty sure he just realized he doesn't need to stream more than once every few weeks/monthly and doesn't care anymore

So, now that Jerma is pretty much retired, does anyone have recommendations for streamers similar to him? (pre-dollhouse stream content specifically) I miss the weekly game streams, kiwis (:_(

I wasn't expecting that Jerma was THIS over already. I get he was prepping for retirement, but he dropped his traditional streaming like a rock.

I can understand losing the fun in streaming, but this is more due to his health, isn't it? Had anyone broken down what his back condition is?

Yeah it felt very sudden. The current stream forecast was posted 2 months ago about him eating mac & cheese or some shit and hasn't been updated. I wonder if he'll even stream the Elden Ring DLC at this rate.

I believe the retirement had more to do with transitioning into a behind the scenes role he prefers and that is less reliant on his physical condition. The back issues caused him to take time off over the last 6 years, but I didn't get the impression that they suddenly got much worse and forced him to retire completely. Seems like he genuinely enjoys his current role more than he did streaming over the last couple years.

Always enjoyed a nice chill Jerma stream, but when exactly did his fanbase become flooded with insane trannies, and why?

It was probably inevitable as he got popular, but the hbomberguy host(early 2018 iirc) is the event I point to as bringing in a bunch of them at once. The HBG stream was a fundraiser for a UK trans kids charity(thinly veiled grooming operation) and the people watching it got sent directly to Jerma's channel. He also started using Discord for community stuff and showing fanart on stream(didn't take long for it to be flooded with cross-dressing sex fetish material, this is how the catboy shit took off). The troons would hijack his chat and try to get people banned if they complained about the influx of random trans right pride flag spam. If you mentioned the chat rules around politics they'd hit you with the "trans rights aren't politics" and the mods at the time more or less let them get away with it. It came to a head and Jerma addressed the situation basically telling people to calm down and not be hateful, troons took his statements as a greenlight to push out the remainder of the old audience who criticized them.

Apparently he's retired officially, completely.

Good for him to get out before the going gets any worse.

While this could be true, I have no idea who the hell Dexerto is, they appear to just be some rando who acts like they're a reliable source on 'influencer' news. Ew.

The tweet also got a community notes correction, but it could be from a coping Jerma fan.

The clip, straight from Jerma's mouth. He's 'completely retired' as in he's no longer treating streaming as a career and has moved on. It's now his hobby.

My hatred for most content creators and clickbaity streamers makes me avoid the more popular videos or things that I might enjoy if I was more of a normie, but Jerma's Lethal Company video was the first in a while to make me laugh til my ribs hurt. I'll remember the pacman and neck-snap team death moments for a long time.
