sucks to see that its taking a toll like that :< hope you feel better soon it sucks to see old friends leave you hanging aswell :T

Bo Törnros (aka Arin Hjorulfr)

Well now you know why I dissagree on some of the story times (no meaning to take over the commentsection but it was a good disscusion). Now you know what I have felt so manny times. Now you know why I can not trust annyone. But you are wrong: I saw Telephone stand up for you (she missunderstode me and though I was on bandwagon so she said it to me but still). I have been burnd so manny times beleaving that I found a place/groupe that exept me as me and get backstabed. All I can say hang in their I belive in you

Russell Tuss

Hey man; I'm right there with you, 'cept I should be asleep right now (and waking up at 5), my legs are threatening to seize up on me and my meds are tripping with the adrenaline that's pumping into my system for fear of that leg cramps ... .... and that chemical cocktail has me suddenly full of uncomfortable amounts of energy. I'm going to try hoping this particular blend right over here lets the legs let me have a few hours of powernap before I have to roll out. ... yah, not seeing people come out to help when you needed them, always makes someone feel like shit, like nobody really cares for all the effort you burned your life to help them. But I'm hoping that later you look back and see there was more public support than you are able to find at this small time slice. I'm proud to be one of the people who puts my money where my mouth is in supporting you.

were here for you man. we want you to be happy and healthy and i dont think any of us would panic if you took a day off. you more than deserve it. sucks to hear about the people not supporting you. the problem with being in the public view i guess. glad to see youve always stayed true to yourself. just wish people could put this all behind them ive seen you completely disagree with people and then still have a good relationship with them but then see the people who claim theyre all about inclusion and friendship and wont listen to anything anyone says because they heard one bad thing. lets hope people move past this some day. keep doing you and keep causing chaos. ill support you through it all

It always sucks to see you upset. But I'm glad that you feel you can share your feelings with us. Also, you are 100% correct, we will always have your back, because you always had ours. Of course, I can't speak for all of your patrons. And hey, maybe we can start a new fandom, with Blackjack and hookers, you know what forget the fandom! But seriously we love you. Take the day off, hell take the whole week off. Relax, have a barbecue, and we will be here if you need us.

I have no doubt you will bounce back. You know we got you covered ;) Just keep doing what you do, and take a break if your foot gets too bad. Or take a break anyway! Heavens know you deserve it. And eat something!

2, you mean a lot to me. You were the one who kept me somewhat sane during my teens. You helped me feel secure about being bisexual. And about being an atheist while still living with a Mormon family. You taught me that cursing can be used appropriately. That anger can be used in constructive ways. You taught me about being informed. You INTRODUCED ME to the fandom and changed my life forever. You've kept me company and been a distant friend for many years. You've improved my life dramatically and I am so grateful that I can give back to you through Patreon. If I had any kind of social standing I would have batted away any and all rumours about you. You mean a lot to me, and I really want you to understand: You are loved. Remember that. Sometimes good deeds don't always come around back to you. People are sometimes not be loyal. People can lack integrity. But as your British tank guy, I can promise you that I will support and care for you as best I can. Ignore the retarded screams of the sheep, for you inside are a lion. (At least partly) Eat well, exercise, and feel free to ask for a chat from any of us when you need one. We're here for you. Much love Bird, and many hugs. *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs* *hugs*

Everyone else has pretty much said it all,but your videos have helped me out of some dark times and I'll do my part to return that help even if all I can do is give some money each month.

Robert Seth

May not be much but we're here for you 2. One of the many reasons i pay money to you each month is because I enjoy your shows. You make my days so much better and if people won't give you a chance then I say it's they're loss. I'm sorry to hear your foot is giving you issues. I hope you get better and if you need time off then take it. I think we'd understand.😊you've always been there for people, so if you need to vent or talk, we're hear for you. We'll listen.

I was not expecting this feels trip, but I will gladly go on it. We all need to vent, to let out our fears, worries, and frustrations; and I will more than happy to lend and ear or a shoulder to you in those times, my friend. We are both getting older,I remember listening to your old show and even having you answer some of my questions I wrote in to you. I've met you at a few cons, though that has been some years past. No matter how busy you were, stressed, or even just feeling unwell; you were there with a smile and a friendly word. To see you so down is horrible, but at the same time I am glad you shared this with us. Once more I am falling into a disjointed rambling as I am not very good at putting my thoughts into words, but I wanted you to know that though we may not be close, I still see you as a friend and someone I look up to. If ever there is something we can do or there is something you need to do to keep your own sanity please do so and let us know. We do care about you, even if sometimes it feels like no one does.

2, it's always an honor to see you at AC, and I always make a point to come up and shake your hand when I'm there. It was your rants that introduced me to the fandom and I'll gladly proclaim it to anyone who asks. I'm sorry that you're going through all this crap, and mad as hell that some friends of mine have jumped on this whole SJW bandwagon. I've attended your shows every time I've been to AC, and was lucky enough to snag a ticket to the charity show one year. Without you there, I find I have little reason to go to AC anymore, or any con that you're not welcome at. I'm more than a little disappointed in those folks whom you helped elevate, only to have them turn their backs on you like they did. I'm really not sure how I'm going to react to them next time I see them. I promise to do my best to be civil though. :) You helped bring me into this fandom, where I've met some of my best friends, and even my future wife. I can't thank you enough for that. I'll remain a loyal patron and help in that way for as long as I can.

Dear 2; I watched your last vlog. i have been thinking of what was said. I hope this pain will pass soon. This may sound wrong to some people. I have been thinking this for sometime now. 1) as a Patreon I need you well to do your job. 2) as a friend to hell with the job I just want you to be well. 3) the sad thing about some others is the fear of running to the aid a friend may loss them other friends. I am running to save a friend if others don't understand why then that is their loss not mine. Keep well for yourself. Thank you for you time, Dale Brooks.

2, I am sorry to hear you are not feeling well. The drama crap can definitely get you down. I did not get involved in the public fray about Anthrocon's decision to forbid any public appearance by you at the con because that would just have fed the drama and there was plenty of that. I did write to the Anthrocon board and CEO to let them know that their decision and how it was handled has lost them a long time supersponsor and to ask for an explanation besides the pile of crap that was posted on their forum. Neither have responded to me in any way which only serves to reinforce my decision to cease supporting the con. I fear a new element is in control and they have started the beginning of the end of what has been a great con.

Well, I might do the barbecue thing, but since my foot exploded, I probably won't be doing much standing or walking for a few days. :)

RantingGryphon

I've actually be doing a little better with the eating thing! But I could still improve. I'm feeling a bit better today. You guys have really lifted my mood.

RantingGryphon

Thanks. It really does help lift me up to hear this. I am starting to feel a bit better today, except my foot. It'll probably be a douche for a few more days at least. :)

RantingGryphon

Oh, I'll be okay. My foot is being stupid, but it should be better in a few days. In the mean time, I'll still be able to make videos, so I'm happy. :)

RantingGryphon

Even though it doesn't happen often, I do feel down sometimes. Most of the time, I keep that to myself because I don't want to spread a bad mood. But every now and then, I do need to vent a little. I'm feeling more positive today and I know again that everything will be okay.

RantingGryphon

I think you're probably right about that. At least that's what it feels like. I know AC took on some new board members between last year and this one. I speculate that those members were probably friends of some of the left wing bullies that were already on the board. They've wanted me gone for years and I suppose they just now have the voting power to do it. I'm pretty sure Kage doesn't even really know what's going on.

After having a long debate with one of my roomies about all this hullabaloo over the BS in the fandom, you came up along with George Carlin, and about all the good things I learned from you and Carlin, even through all that, they still though with all that, they told me that all the people I have listed were all just assholes.... it just gave me a really big window into their perspective. I still backed you AND George because I have learned so much from the stand-up's, the rants and everything you both had to say. The ONE major thing I learned from the burd... is that if I am offended..... to ask myself "why" does this offend me? And by doing so it gets down to the root issue and then I finally learn why it offends me. Yes, you 2 had a hand in me learning common sense in life and not to jump at every little thing and to find a reason to be offended at it. And sadly, as a 34 year old guy in that millenial age range.... I look out at the masses... and I know I have you to thank for helping me not to become one of the many defunked, brainless meat-bags that are allowed a drivers license and access to power tools. So thank you 2, for being there and entertaining us all. It's why I am here supporting you. A value for value model. Be well and hug a fluff derg every now and again, it really helps the grundle-zone. ;)

Hey, 2 From what I'm seeing right now, it seems like anything that I could think to say to comfort has probably already been said above, but I want to reiterate again anyways. We're all here for you. No matter what, we, your fans, are here for you. I hate that you were drug into all of this bullshit just because people are idiots, and while I sometimes worry that I may have been feeding the trolls, I still wish that I'd been able to do more to help take the heat off a bit during those random twitter exchanges during those few weeks. If you ever feel like you need to unload, vent, talk to someone, ect. in the middle of the night, I'll be there. I work night shifts, and it's generally slow around here after midnight, and even when I'm not working I stay on the same sleep schedule, so I'll literally always be up super late. I hope today was a better day! P.S. Sorry if you got something notifying you of a message that just said 'Hey, 2'. I forgot that I needed to hold shift to start a new line. X_X

I hope you do feel better, 2! It's a shame that none of those people you supported would support you in return, but I'll tell you this. I've got your back. And as Cory says above, you can definitely talk to us if you need someone! You've still got me on Skype, text away if you need someone, I'm around a lot of the time.

RantingGryphon

If that's what you learned from me, then I feel like all my work has been worth it. The overall message I've always wanted to send is to think for yourself, form your own ideas and know who you are. It sounds like that's what you're doing! :)

RantingGryphon

You've always been a great friend. I'm feeling a bit better today, however my main problem has become my foot. As soon as that clears up, I should be okay again.

Skyfox

It is incredibly disheartening to hear that those individuals, who so many of us enjoy and admire, who are in your circle of friends and have always hung out with you at conventions, would remain so silent and do nothing to defend you from people spouting pointless assumptions and other bullshit claims about you. You're one of the finest people I've ever had the privilege to meet and briefly hang out with a time or two. The way you treat and speak about people (off stage, not in ranting character) shows how kind hearted you are. I thought maybe this whole "nazi" thing was in the process of blowing over, but if it is it certainly isn't disappearing quickly enough. While it's great your patrons are here for you with support, many of us are somewhat anonymous people on the internet when that support should be coming from those who know you in person and call you friend. We're most definitely here for you. *hugs*
