This isn’t Twitter. This isn’t your average every day site. This is Tumblr. We’re crazy. We’re weird. We don’t fit in. We’re the fangirls, the fujoshis, the Superwholockers, and the Steven Universe Critical bloggers. We forgot what “normal” was. So if you’re expecting a normal website…
hey. hey, dsmp, mcyt, technostan kiddos, new ones, old ones, fresh ones, whatever you are.
You’re not alone in this.
In mid 2010’s there was a gaming critic, one of the first ones in the wave of youtubers, one of the best ones as far as a great many people were concerned. Influental, adored, funny, righteous. His name was John but most people knew him as TotalBiscuit. He too passed from cancer in 2018.
We still miss him.
I see him occasionally in conversation, spoken of in kindness. People lamenting they wish he would be here, to see the things we have, to speak on them, just to hear his voice. Every single one of his thousands of videos has a new comment wishing him to rest easy and reminisceing the old days. People have not forgotten. I never will either. He saved my life without knowing, many years ago, simply by existing.
On the internet no one is ever really gone.
It will hurt. You will hurt. Maybe for a long time, maybe he mattered so much to you that that little bit of grief will fester for years to come but its okay. You will remember him and you will remember him with warmth and goodness and happiness for the time he was here.
If Trump goes to prison during pride month I will literally never stop laughing like to charge reblog to cast give me all of your evil thoughts and prayers for this freak to get his first ever consequence.
