I get what you're saying, but I can't agree. Especially with the outside/online influences he chooses to affiliate himself with, he needs something that will try to counteract it. He's still extremely naive and a child, and especially at his age he thinks he has it all worked out. Eventually (optimistically) he'll have a breakthrough from a mentor in his real life that'll straighten him out.I don't think he does, he just vents and hits upload. Ironic he does this saying confidence doesn't matter all the time, someone confident knows their words get across as intended. Personally I think he gets worked up like he does on those videos he just can't focus well enough and throws that in as filler as his brain tries to catch up to his mouth. Being a video it's a one way conversation, he's not the best with social skills so removing any interaction may be difficult, some people do not do well in front of a camera who are socially graced, Kent apparently doesn't and his skills are a lot lesser than the average person.
He hasn't mentioned either his one on one or group in a while, sadly we know Kent doesn't try, so all the shrinks and meds in the world won't help. If anything I hate to sound mean but, I hope he's not going. He's not trying, it's unfair to the people who need mental help to let Kent take up their time and the pros who want to help to deal with someone who's content being unhappy. Sadly mental care here is pretty lacking and you have all sorts of people gaming the system, wasting time etc stretching an already thin resource. If Kent was to be serious about sorting his life I'd hope he can get care, I just don't want to see him wasting all that time and money (esp being it's probably fronted by us tax payers since he's claimed being on SSI) when people who need help are behind him in line.
Kent gave into BB for two reasons, its easy, the "you can't win, literally everyone is out to stop you" and Kent's dumb. From a scientific stand point TFL makes no sense. Calvin is not an stereotype odd ball professor or anything. He's a failure, in all regards. Kent can identify with that so the biggest reason a "truth seer" would be wrong is what draws the two together. If you can see through the smoke you'd be incredible successful or off the grid but still self supportive. I think at part Kent is aware he could be successful in both dating and life it self but since he chooses not to be those who have what he wants bother him because he knows he'd have to work harder to get what they did. So he chooses to be the big fish in little pond.
...or maybe he'll just go ER and upstage Nick Bate and Lindsay. (Our resident failed Vancouver shooter)
Sorry for the choppy. I have a flu.
