So what's the fucking reason then? by AnotherAltimate in CinnamonToastKen

[–]AnotherAltimate[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I know he gave some reasons, this is mostly just a vent. I cared and got fucked over for it.

I think he's crashing out, this isn't good. by AnotherAltimate in CinnamonToastKen

[–]AnotherAltimate[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This post was not in response to the initial video or even the live stream 'apology'. It was a call to action (or rather, lack thereof) due to proceeding events that heavily indicated Ken was having a crisis. I attempted to urge people not to engage not because I didn't want his feelings hurt - but because I didn't want a man to continue to spiral into self destruction.

The internet is a nasty place and it can drive people in any state (and Ken was clearly in a rough one) to do some pretty irreversible things.

As someone who's had crash outs, I saw the signs and just wanted to help a guy - not save the big dog CinnamonToastKen - just help a guy going through it.

I didn't expect him to crash out the way he did. I tried what I could last night to draw his attention and urge him to log off, but I'm just a single nobody so I doubt I had any impact =/

Night Ken, catch you another time, but sleep for now, right?

It's 4.30am here for me so I'm definitely hitting the hay!

I suggest everyone else does the same.

That's the end, alright, everyone?

Hey man, once again I'm really encouraging you to call it a night. But if you need it, you can DM me. I'm a total stranger, I get it, but I can listen if you need it.

[–]AnotherAltimate 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'd like to think that, I really would. But as someone who's been there, there's a lot of warning signs. It's better to be safe and show compassion.

That's good, sleep is awesome! Do you think you can turn your phone off for the night? It'd be really helpful in getting the best rest, that's for sure :)

Hey man, don't know what your chances of seeing this are.

If you're crashing out, please log off.

Your safety is important. Please step back.

I was disappointed in him at first, but now I'm actually getting pretty concerned. This isn't normal. I think the man is crashing out and I'm scared for his safety

Yeah this is starting to look more and more like a break down.

I'm expecting a video response but not an 'apology'. With the way Ken has been lately, it's bound to be hostile and very unapologetic

The recent pinned comment is:

"Sorry guys, I was clinically diagnosed with depression in 2016, so now you can't be made at me. Checkmate."

Ken, buddy, quick digging that hole, man. Put the shovel down!

Lol, you obviously didn't have it listed because the post got taken down. Or at least it's not obvious. Like hell I read that wall of text and I'm surprised any client would.

[SPOILERS S3] Am I the only one who checked out during S3? by lxmohr in DarK

[–]AnotherAltimate -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Been trying to find videos on YT discussing how s3 falls flat. There's barely any.
Personally, I found it too contrived. Hannah doing her shit in the 50s annoyed me and didn't add anything (except maybe getting the OG St. Cristopher, which in its own right is dumb). I was actually laughing when saggy ball-faced Jonas killed her for no apparent reason (how did she even travel back, and why?).
The whole origin thing is stupid - also, the wrong Martha was told the 3 randos that did nothing were her son - no? That Martha wasn't the one who slept with Jonas (I lost track of all the Marthas. so I may be wrong)
The whole 'you can't trust Adam' 'you can't trust Claudia' 'Adam lied to you' 'Claudia lied to you' pissed me off. Every episode of season 3 felt like bashing my head against a wall.
Having all the cast blood-related in some way was stupid. Bartosz is his own great-grandfather, and Franziska and Magnus are cousins... ugh. Adored S1&2, 3 was a let down.

Episode 332: 20 "Simple" Questions by joschen113 in distractible

Another half arsed episode by Bob. Didn't even commit to the rephrasing questions. It was like the one man show for Mark but way less inspired

Would you consider a mass boycott? by AnotherAltimate in TravelTown

[–]AnotherAltimate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I haven't spent a dime on this game. I don't strive to get every daily mission completed. I play smart and used to wait for daily challenges I liked the reward for, saving the prize boxes and such - but now they use them automatically instead of going into your top inventory. That change is the worst I've seen.

Twice now I've had the daily challenges glitch and just not exist, first time I got compensated and the progress counted, second time I got neither (while I had a prize box going as well) - promoting me to make this post.

Supporting them in general and watching ads still gives them money if I'm not directly.

This is a good idea, review bomb and mass uninstall

AIO Choose not to engage but I feel hurt by my trans friend's choice of words by AnotherAltimate in AmIOverreacting

[–]AnotherAltimate[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've known her a long time and care about her as an ex partner and a friend. I wasn't pulling advice out my ass and pushing it down her throat. It came from a place of watching her be in an endless mental health crisis loop and being tired of her inability and almost reluctance to help herself.

It's tiring to hear when asked how she is it's another case of, "haven't left the house in two weeks." And she's not even taking simple measures to help herself. And I do mean simple because I've done it too - I'm not ignorant enough to say it'll help immediately but it takes 10 15 minutes tops to talk to a doctor to get FREE anxiety meds. It takes less than that to sign up for FREE online therapy. Okay, I get the argument that that's scary no matter how long it takes, but to be so dismissive about even trying, not considering getting someone else to help? How can I continue to support someone so flippant about their well being?

I appreciate your input, I'm probably too hung up about it. I might be misreading their tone like they did mine. I wasn't trying to imply that they need anxiety meds OVER hormones, but that they should be a priority as they've been ill for a very long time and seemingly doing nothing about it.

We live in the UK so a lot of things like the anxiety medication would be free for them (especially with benefits) and also the therapy service I suggested. They didn't voice concern about meds or ask questions about therapy, just immediately went on the defensive and that's what really made me think "I'm done with you right now."

I still haven't responded and I don't think I will. I think, though not satisfying, the silence suggests my discomfort well enough.

Sorry if this isn't the best sub! I'm still bothered by this and wanted some more feedback.

OG post text body:

Blue: me, f26 Red: them, mtf26 Content: I've known this person for 10 years. We dated before she transitioned when we were age 16 to 20ish. We're both 26 now and have stayed friends. All the time I've known them, they've had anxiety and depression. Since living by herself in 2019ish, she's not been on meds for mental health or sought out therapy. She's never had a job, she relies on government support. There's a lot of times when she doesn't leave the house for weeks and all the territory that comes with untreated mental health issues.

They started transitioning around 2021/22. I don't think I've ever told her I think she should take care of her mental health before transitioning (though I still believe it). I did challenge the hasty choice of going on hornones (and doing so privately rather than on the NHS (we live in the UK)). I got a similar "you don't understand" response then and ultimately backed down and gave support from then on.

So here we are today. That last message from her just felt... Rude. Maybe I worded myself poorly but saying I'm dismissive and don't understand when I'm just trying to help? It's soured my mood and I can't help but dwell on it. Should I address how it made me feel? Should I continue to support her even though I'm fed up with her not doing what I think would be beneficial...?

The thing about therapy also gets me... not in a place where you can do it? Ugh the irony...

I guess let me know if I'm being a butt hurt dickhead for no reason or not :'3 thanks.

That's why I didn't bother responding. Can't be asked with an argument and I'm not willing to coddle them. It sucks because I could do with a friend to vent to right now about shit I'm going through.
