Jacksepticeye Almost Quit YouTube | Sad Boyz 

:)

it was super cool to see you on here man

omg jacksepticeye hi

:)

HELL YEAHHHHHHH

And they get along! 😮😅😊

I couldn't find the words to describe how this collab felt, and this hit the nail on the head!!

On a lighter note it's so great to see Sean on here! Had a blast listening (as always) even if it was just me going "Right???!" while you ripped these shows apart.

They scrapped 75 MILLION DOLLARS worth of writing and filming and i genuinely don’t think I could even hate watch this show

@@ThatCrazyBookWyrm finding out his name is SEÁN of all things is missing with me. before i saw this podcast i knew two things: this man was our most famous YTer (or, after seeng the title: after Clisare), and his name is jack. my world view has been forever changed. his name is JOHN wtf

We should all be watching Daisy Jones instead of that bvllshit

theWknd literally brought in Hollywoods fav creeper to direct, with a fuccin feature film budget, what is essentially an extended music video.

THE WORLDS HAVE INDEED COLLIDED IN SUCH AN AMAZING WAY

Exactly my thoughts and feelings

Straight up thought i had a stroke holy shit

IKRR

i am so happy rn

Yah, funny enough during, or before this video I got an ad about some Candace owens looking woman, misgendeirng and tlaking about Ezra, like yes, they suck but it’s not hard to say they

@@HamiltonIsLife Ezra has assaulted people and groomed minors (which means probably even worse things that I won't say out loud here) and should be in prison. You guys are downplaying it. It goes far beyond "you're cringe" or "they suck."

​@@rebeccahicks2392 yeah i agree with you, i dont think ezra is just a "pos" they did some horrible shit

To be absolutely sincere, nobody is obligated to gaf about a criminals gender identity. “Who they are” is a criminal, that’s the identity they’ve made most prominent for themselves. If someone is talking about them and says “he” you realize how dumb it is to point that out given the circumstances right?

@@Maya-Haydenbeing a bad person doesnt take away your right to an identity though

I notice it’s still an issue in the kpop community and it’s always so bizarre to see. It kinda feels like it’s an issue the internet should’ve grown past but it still crops up in K-pop ( and Minecraft) communities that I feel like are pretty queer and should be aware of the creepiness

@@SmatterCloudsit’s also often younger teens and kids who probably shouldn’t be interacting with the internet in that way. as someone who used to be a part of that side of fandom at that age (i’m an adult now), i cringe so hard at that behavior.

@@SmatterCloudsas a kpop fan i agree,,, it’s interesting bc unlike in american culture men there seem to be way more physically affectionate so i think most people see that and immediately think gay

@@SmatterClouds no definitely.. and it becomes even worse when its mainly women doing it😭

@@SmatterCloudsespecially since it’s almost encouraged sometimes for members to give fanservice and play up the relationship for publicity sake. But it’s absolutely not okay for someone to be TRULY gay. They can only play pretend and queerbait for laughs or the attention ships garner.

His newer stuff is really good! he's been playing Nancy Drew with his gf on her channel and it's a DELIGHT

@@brittanybarkhousejackson4934i love her channel! her totk playthrough has been a nice comfort series :)

@@gargles5270 this makes me want to see Gab on the Sad Boyz podcast now!

@@isabelrose3161 that would be so cool. I don't often get to catch her streams where she just chats. I'd love to have some of that in podcast form.

@@ontheturningaway so, why are you here ?

I’m so proud of you for getting through that

God, it's been almost 2 years since leaving a sexually abusive relationship and I feel bad for not going to therapy yet for it when ik I'm not just gonna be ok after that, but ugh it sucks ass

@@Official_Nigel_Simp there’s no one path to recovery ❤️‍🩹 Maybe you’ll feel like therapy is the move one day, and you’re always allowed to change your mind. Other than those directly involved at the time, I had never had the opportunity to share my entire story until earlier this year when reporting. It sucked beyond what words can describe lol. Lost SO much sleep, but reaching that personal goal of mine was so freeing. Even if nothing comes out of it, I felt as though the ‘situation’ was finally taken out of my hands. I did the thing I wished I had done for myself sooner. You might want something different, and that’s okay. I do encourage you to take a peek at your local resource centers for SA survivors. There are people who dedicate their careers to make sure that people like us can get access to free counseling, coaching, or (the most impactful thing for me personally) just being there with you to help navigate some pretty overwhelming legal processes. You’re not a burden on anyone. You deserve to heal too. Just gotta be patient with yourself in the meantime.

ahhh that’s amazing im so happy for you!!! proud of you, hope you’re doing well ❤

@@Official_Nigel_Simpno need to “feel bad” for anything. recovery isn’t linear, and remember everybody heals differently, you should go whenever you feel ready ❤

Aka the post I’ve seen approximately 1000000 times over the course of 15 years on tumblr, Pinterest, instagram, Reddit….

@@maddieb.4282hat was the point of this comment lmaoao like ok?¿ yes the post is old, doesn’t mean everybody knows the word 😭

i never knew there was a name for that feeling. i love language

It's an entirely made up word that someone created on their own for their "Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows." It has no actual etymological history.

@@Prae7orian all words are made up. get owned /j being serious, i'd accept it as a 'legit' word, all names started obscure and were made up one day

GENUINELY though, I was talking to a friend about this recently.

You both are so young, and I cant imagine having to make such a big decision and stepping into a role with so much responsibility so young. I can only wish you well and hope you and your brothers can help each other the best you can. Never feel like you can't rely on others to help! My aunt was diagnosed just at the tail-end of her fourties, and it's devastating to watch, especially when she herself is so young, but sometimes you just need to turn away for a bit to collect yourself. I hope you're able to take care of yourself as well as your mom; all the best to you and your family 💕

Same here (I’m 26, only child/caregiver, mom is 61). We’re not alone and we can make it through this 💕

I’m sorry you guys are having to deal with that. That’s got to be so difficult

Sending so much love to you & your family 💕

Same! I’ve been watching jacks “unpacking” video for like a week straight to fall asleep and the sad boyz the whole month before!

It's nice to see someone correctly pointing out that 13-15 year olds are children and nowhere near fully developed. I get very tired of high schoolers getting mad at me for not wanting to interact with them or even, god forbid, allow them into mature spaces. yall, you're not mature. at all.

I agree. I was very heavily involved in the JSE markiplier fandom, and luckily didn’t take part in shipping really but I did write fanfiction. And when I turned about 18 I started to feel really weirded out about it. I started to realize the boundaries and moved on from it. I hope younger kids now can hopefully get it a little sooner than us and learn from our mistakes. The boundaries are there and I hope younger kids now can learn from the mistakes.

I too am guilty of the shipping madness of the early 2010s as a teenager and I realize later on in life (late 20s) how creepy and wrong it really was.

there should be more awareness of how that stuff violates a boundary when applied to ppl like that (unless they openly endorse it, which is rare but not unheard of... and possibly even weirder tbh...), but it does make me laugh that ppl talk about it as if it's made by a bunch of fully grown adult pervs when it's just little kids making their dollies kiss, lmao is it weird that ur dollies were real human beings? obviously, but thats just the culture around u. kids from the 80s and 90s didnt get all of their embarrassing celeb crush talk crystallized in a digital archive for the actual adult world to gawk at, they got it out of their system and laugh about it in hindsight at high school reunions or w/e. growing up online is f-cked, i genuinely wish we could divide the internet by age group somehow - for everyone's sake. our social spaces are wayyy too cross-contaminated

people still do it though, adults still have that mentality that it's okay to ship real people or sexualize and actor just because a character they play is hot

Hearing Sean talk about his mental health journey has also made me think that like,, maybe I should try therapy again? I had a few really bad experiences with therapists (last one was particularly rough) and I kind of swore it off for myself. But idk, maybe one day I can actually meet someone who can help? I do a decent enough job on my own, but it's exhausting to be your own therapists, and I know there's blind spots I have to be missing. I know therapy is super helpful, don't get me wrong, I just didn't find much success with it. But maybe it's time to try again.

​@@ThatCrazyBookWyrmI'm in a similar spot rn and just wanted to say, I hear ya, I feel ya. It's so tiring trying to find a therapist that fits, and having bad experiences can really knock you back. We'll get there 👍

I feel that too. I looked up the symptoms for adhd and I fit the description so I can relate to you.

So your dad committed suicide damn I’m sorry to hear that. I’m currently going through the same thing with my mom killing her self. Jarvis is a good one to listen to for advice.

@tmac-hd8nb I'm so sorry for your loss love. We'll make it through this 💖❤️‍🩹

Wasn’t he a sexual abuser though

I read the book and thought the concept itself gives an icky feeling

that unfortunately validates why i never wanted to be on tumblr lol because i hate reddit and don't want to be around wherever they're going next. godspeed to tumblr users who have to deal with them

​@@Rambertaas a Tumblr user a lot of reddit users I've seen have been rlly chill ppl

Same

The pipeline of shipping and yaoi to chastising yourself for fetishising gay men to realising that you just wanted to be a man in a relationship with another man. I also went through the phan and septiplier phase from when I was 9. Tumblr really fostered unhealthy roadblocks to understanding ourselves from such a young age. Such is the internet.

@@aliamcbride all I'm learning is that Tumblr, in its prime, was so much worse than people give it credit for

The Yaoi phrase to Queer+/Trans pipeline is really prevalent, especially among AFAB. Trust me, been there and now I’m a bisexual.

Yeah I've personally only seen stoicism only used by people who want to impress on others there's no such thing as racism or sexism or transphobia. Like hardline individualists. Where as for me, learning to exist within a society and act as a healthy member of any group, reparenting has been much more useful to process emotions and let go of primary anxieties.

I feel stoicism is ptsd/trauma before psychology gave it a term. And I can see lots of parallels like getting withdrawn when you "lose control of the outside world and only stay within your bubble"

A quick google search shows you're gay and have no idea what you're talking about

Which ironically historically stoicism practitioners believed in “citizens of the world” or everyone being equal and social justice

Stoicism is a good building block for learning about psychology/philosophy but not really actualising therapy for yourself. There are definitely quotes by Marcus Aurelius that are profound, especially for the time they were written. But they were also in their infancy of understanding. I have the book Meditations by him, it's very interesting. There's also a lot of nonsense in there because of the time it was written that if you can't differentiate for yourself can easily lead you down an Andrew Tate path.

lol i was gonna comments this too

patreon app hurts my spirit 😢

I also feel like “separate the art from the artist” has lost its meaning because it isn’t used as like “we can still appreciate the art on its own without supporting the artist” (which is how it’s supposed to be) and used more like “I don’t actually care about the bad things these artists are doing I just wanna like what I like” I absolutely agree with the point that the things artists believe often show up in their works, and H.P Lovecraft and J.K Rowling are fantastic examples of this. Art is an extension of the artist, artists combine their life experiences and ideologies into a work that expresses those things and of course if they have bad ideologies those are going to show up in their work. I don’t think it’s wrong to enjoy works that have those sort of beliefs in it, as long as you don’t support those beliefs and can think critically for yourself about the harm those beliefs can cause. Moving back to how separate the art from the artist is used, I feel like many people, especially online, really attach themselves to artists or works of art they enjoy and it can be hard to accept when something they love can be really harmful. People understand that what the artist is doing is incredibly wrong, but something they can’t accept is the idea of letting go of something they enjoyed. So, many times they look for excuses to continue to support the art and that’s where our shiny golden star “separate the art from the artist” comes in. They don’t actually care about what separate the art from the artist means, they just want to continue to enjoy what they want without having to think critically about the work or think about how them continuing to support the art still benefits the artist.

@@sleepyhead_toby oh yeah, when I say it, I definitely mean eg, I still want to enjoy rereading Harry potter, but I refuse to buy anything new from her.

its something about jeffery epstein 😭 Its a rlly horrendous quote if u find a video about the idol episode 3 they will for sure say the whole quote in there

​@emelybatista4373 ew I can already tell the vibes of what that is and it's completely pointless to even know honestly pervert crap is just pervert crap it doesn't even mean anything

​@emelybatista4373 I'm so glad people are hating the idol and Sam Levinson now I felt like I was crazy being the only one who didn't think he was great

i believe he’s talking about the line where they say “i’m f****** sh****** more bl**d than a kid at epst*in island” lots of censors to avoid getting banned
