I agree people should educate themselves. However, politics, like religion, is a belief system and divides people that ultimately ends in arguments and name calling. There are places to have those discussions. My chat ain’t it.
Devastated to hear all of these stories. I was made aware of one situation and based on the info given, it seemed like it was handled and in the past. After hearing the other women come forward and realizing this isn’t a one-off thing, I'll no longer have anything to do with Lono
I wasn't going to share this but f*ck it, I'm damn proud of what we accomplished this weekend. In the 12 years I've been doing content creation, there's only been a handful of moments that hit me so hard that I broke down into tears. This was one of them. Thank you. #GFG2019
Wow. Do you insult everyone who disagrees with you? All I’m saying is I want an all inclusive community. When you talk about politics/religion you segregate people. They get angry and threatening when you start questioning their beliefs. That’s not what I want in my chat.
Public Service Announcement:
I’m “family friendly” on YouTube. I’m not always “family friendly” on Twitch. I use “adult words” from time to time. If you also use “adult words” and like to play video games, I’d like to play video games and say “adult words” with you. Hit me up 🤙🏼
If you’re sitting at a bar and 2 people start discussing something that you disagree with and actually starts to upset you, are you going to enjoy your time at the bar? No, you’d probably leave or worse, start arguing with them and get kicked out. Again, that’s not my chat.
It took me 8 years of doing YouTube while I worked a full time job and being a dad/husband before I became a “full time content creator”. It’s a marathon most people don’t want to run in or have the patience for. If you want it bad enough, you have to put in the work.
$15,601.45 raised for @StJudePLAYLIVE! Absolute legendary stream! All the pain and suffering was worth it! Thanks to everyone who donated, watched, lurked, and shared.
Big thanks to the @GCXEvent team for putting on an incredible show. It was an honor to be a part of it again.
2020 has taught me that I can’t be super passive anymore. I can’t be “Mr Neutral” to avoid conflict. I have to voice my opinions, stand with the people behind messages I believe in. This is not my norm, so please know I’m trying to grow as a human and get better at it.
Today I turn 40.
It's a huge milestone in my opinion. So many experiences behind me, so many more ahead. My 30's were transformative. I'm a better person today than I was ten years ago. I hope to continue on that path.
WE DID IT! $5300 raised for @StJude! Thanks so much to everyone who donated, watched, retweeted, and shared! I ate so much nasty crap, got pied in the face, had makeup applied, and had hair ripped from my body. All worth it! Heading to @guardiancon in the morning. See you there!
I'm 100% here for the women who spoke up if and when you need to talk. I'm 100% against anyone being made to feel uncomfortable around others, against anyone being taken advantage of. I'm sorry if my past working relationship with Lono has damaged my relationships with others. 💚
In the past 6 months I’ve been able to give my family and I some financial stability, some security. Things got rough there when YouTube was my only game. But we adapted, we diversified, we evolved, and I’m on my second tour of this wild ride, much wiser than the first time.
I don’t talk about politics publicly because I’m so uneducated about most of it. But damn, this is disgusting. The stark differences between what we saw today and what we saw this summer. So much wrong with so many things. What an embarrassment.
22 years ago today, after watching Titanic on double VHS, and spending an entire Saturday on the couch watching music videos on MTV, I kissed this girl, and I’ve been kissing her every day since.

First thing we did when we got the keys to our new house was inclose my office. Tiffany decided on shiplap and a barn door. It came out better than we imagined.
17 years ago today I asked her the most important question you can ask a partner, and she said “I do”.
It’s been a journey of highs and lows, joy and pain. But we’re stronger now than ever before and I’m more in love with her today than I’ve ever been. #HappyAnniversary
Amazing weekend at @GCXEvent! Felt so good to see old friends and meet some new ones.
Big thanks to the staff and volunteers and to everyone at @RareDropCo for bringing back my favorite event. Until next year…💚
In honor of @GCXEvent I want to thank @kevinxvision @Darkness429 @Professorbroman@Gothalion and the whole @RareDropCo team for continuing to be pillars in our community. They continue to lead by example and are quick to stand up for what’s right. Here’s to next year boys 🍻
Today my one and only son turns 11 years old. I’m very fortunate to have this kid in my life. He makes me proud to be his dad on the regular.
#HappyBirthday#ProudDad
WE DID IT! So many hours dumped into this raid and we finally got the clear and the raid jacket!
Shout out to @Bungie for making another fantastic encounter! #Destiny2
Words can’t describe how much she means to me. It took me a while to appreciate what I had found. But after 20 years, 15 married, I can’t imagine living without her.
We live very unusual lives and for us, today is just another day. But it’ll always be our day. 💚💜 #Anniversary
I consume just as much content as I create, if not more. So I need ultra fast internet on the go here in Phoenix. Thanks to @Verizon 5G Ultra Wideband, I'm covered. c8.io/PEZwBU#5GUltraWideband#VerizonPartner
5G Ultra Wideband available in select areas.
A stomach full of fire and a heart full of joy. Over $22k raised for @GamersOutreach. Thanks to all who donated, hung out in chat, and supported the stream. I appreciate you. #GFG2020
Twitch just announced “Hype Train” that will automatically trigger in chat when 2 or more “moments” of gifting or cheering happen. Fill the meter by subbing, gifting, or cheering and chat is reward with seasonal emotes. There are 5 tiers of “hype”. #TwitchCon
Set up a new camera last night. It looks so damn good and was plug and play thanks to @elgatogaming Cam Link. You can turn any camera with an hdmi port into a high quality “webcam” with this little thing. Check it out here: e.lga.to/Clintus#ElgatoPartner
3 years ago I quit my job to pursue content creation full time. Even though YouTube isn't what it used to be, it still pays my bills and allows Tiffany and I to be home with our kids. It's allowed us to purchase a new home and go on amazing adventures together.

Working with my son this past week on the start of his @Twitch journey has been an amazing experience so far. Going through the Affiliate process for the first time, modding for him using the Mod View, helping him setup everything. His excitement grows with each stream. #ProudDad
Off for the next few days celebrating my wife’s 40th birthday. 🥳
I’m so lucky to have her in my life. She’s taken care of this family while I’ve pursued various career paths over the years. We’ve built an amazing life together and I can’t wait to see where the next 40 takes us.
All right, I was going to keep my opinions to myself about the topic but enough people have come to me asking for it, so figured I should share it here for future reference. So here goes:
Twitch vs YouTube for live streaming…
