Sorry, I've been under the weather & work has been a bit demanding lately. But I'm still here & supporting just not able to get on here to respond & talk as much as I'd like to. You do seem to be more happier & lighter. Life in itself is a challenge & Life just keeps on Lifing. Lol 😊 Have a great day! ☺🤗💜
Thanks Marva :) I really appreciate that support. I certainly am feeling better than I have in a long time :) Hope your week hasn't too stressful. Have a great week!
you do look happier in your videos! i love it!
Excited for these upcoming videos! Nice to hear from you!
I'm glad I keep coming back to you Josh. U have such a wonderful, caring personality and you really show you care for your YouTube and Patreon family and you show how passionate you are with your YouTube vids and in the Patreon vids. I'm so happy to be able to help you out and keep supporting you :) Keep being you, my friend!
Thank you again for being so transparent with all of us, Strider! I'm looking forward to everything you're working on right now, and I really appreciate the variety too. :D Honestly, I saw a change in you too with these recent videos. You seem more passionate and full of life, and I'm so happy to see it! Glad I could help make it happen and give you a sense of security! <3
You give a lot of people a safe space and I love to see it. Keep it up man!
It is a very very stressful time where I live. Your videos are a much needed break. I am very grateful for them. Also, please remember that some members still watch your videos on YouTube. I like to hoping you get some revenue from them as well as from your memberships. These are scary times. We have to stick together. Thank you for what you do!
Morning from the Riverina (NSW) Josh; I've been watching your videos for *many* years, and I am absolutely proud to be helping support you in these tough times, knowing how stressful it can be worrying about when will have money to buy groceries and such (I've gotten in the habit of stocking up on canned soups to last me between my fortnightly DSP payments, for example). It is nice to see you unconsciously be more upbeat and peppy in your videos, now you have a more stable income stream compared to relying on ad revenue, and I'm glad you've done videos covering LGBTQ+ people in media along with Autism in media - as a HFA Transfemme (diagnosed with Asperger's back in 1998 under DSM-4, reclassed as HFA under DSM-5).
Straight up have not been sleeping lately with the election coming up, felt cathartic seeing you address the uncertainty caused by the election. As on your LGBTQ cartoon characters, I have some thoughts as a bisexual trans woman! Bruce has always been a very boring character to me personally. I’ve never been personally particularly offended by him, but whenever he comes on screen I’m just instantly bored by what he said. Don’t think he’s a bad character, I just can’t find him terribly humorous when his only character trait (to my eye anyway, maybe I’m wrong) is being a gay stereotype. But that’s just me! I don’t think Bruce is a dangerously bad stereotype! Beyond that, I remember I left a comment on your last video update like this where I mentioned I did my own little video on LGBTQ representation in video games. I think my reply to you got buried with the links to the videos but as the cartoon lgbtq video idea is still on your mind I still wanna bring up my video cus I think it might be interesting to bounce off of. Apologies if this comes off as self-indulgent or self promotion I promise that’s not my intention! Transgender Representation In Gaming: A Brief History https://youtu.be/8Aj-X_frfjY LGBTQ Controversy In Gaming https://youtu.be/S2JdssF7PrM Regardless! I’m excited for your next video, be it the SpongeBob ranking or otherwise! Glad to be able to support and I have no plans to drop anytime soon! This is a really fun $5 per month subscription for me.
Thank you Melany! This is really helpful perspective and I'll make note of your perspective in my notes when discussing this. I'll give your video on transgender representation and controversy in gaming a looksie now. I appreciate the info!
Don't even worry about how long the video's taking, man. You can't rush art.
Thank you for sticking up for our community. I'm crossing my fingers for the US folk and probablly also the rest of us that Trump loses 🤞🏻.
I keep forgetting election day is gonna be terrifying, yet the first time had me scared
Never thought I’d have a smile watching a update video
Honestly, you look wayy better now than you did last month, it is clearly visible that you're doing better physically and mentally, and I'm honestly very happy to see that
Thank you for supporting the LGBTQI+ community.
I also massively appreciate it. It wasn't long ago that I was made to feel so ashamed of my own existence that I nearly chose to take my life than come out of the closet and actually be true to myself (no severe abuse or anything, more so nobody being there when I needed them, and me somewhat justifiably feeling feeling like I couldn't trust anyone)
Looking forward to seeing all your new videos Strider!
Hillenburg said SpongeBob's ace and sea sponges tend to function as both male and female at certain points, but it's funny you find any reason to include SpongeBob 😆🧽
Just found this out! Thank you! I'll add this to the notes. Mentioned on wikipedia too
There were cool suggestions, though it was cool that you chose the Trevor Project
Are you going to be on your feet for 6 to 7 hours? What's the longest walk you've been on?
I've done a 67 kilometer ultra marathon in the past but most of my ultra marathons (7-9) have been 56 kilometers :)
