onion. hurry up.

please keep in mind that mark is... a person. he's just a dude playin games makin content. and it is inevitable, because humans do things like that, that he will fuck up in some way (such as this whole situation!) but this doesn't mean he's automatically a terrible, unredeemable person. it's an offensive and tasteless game, not an actual act of violence committed against another human being; anyone can make an offensive mistake out of accidental ignorace. and! more important to my message! it doesn't mean you're a horrible unredeemable person for enjoying his stuff. he's just a person and literally everyone fucks up.

i think this is a good time to take a step back and remember that parasocial relationships can make us feel good, and feel less alone in some respects, but if you're genuinely stressing about this situation, to the point that it's affecting your day to day mood and thoughts, you might want to step away from it for awhile. it's not healthy for you OR the creator to put so much stock into one person on the internet that you're emotionally unwell when they end up doing a very human fuckup.

which is not to say it's wrong to be frustrated about the issue! it's not wrong at all, it's understandable. but if you're genuinely, deeply stressed about it, please take a second to yourself. what i am saying that everyone should take care of themselves, and sometimes that means stepping away when you're too deep in something. lots of us have a habit of investing a lot of emotional stock in one place, like a youtuber, and while it helps in the short term, in the long term it can be very harmful.

anyways, i really hope you're doing alright, taking time for yourself, all that. have a great night everyone ✌️
