Where Have I Been?
Added 2022-12-31 18:17:16 +0000 UTCHi! Dylan here. I hope everyone reading this has been happy and healthy since you last heard from me. If you’re celebrating anything right now, I hope you’ve been making happy memories, and if you are not celebrating, I still hope you’ve been making happy memories! I know many of you might be surprised to hear from me. I know many of you might be disappointed in me for disappearing without a trace. Especially here on Patreon where you’ve gone out of your way to show support for the content I create. I want to sincerely apologize for not keeping you all in the loop. I made a video explaining why I have been absent. It’s been so long that I felt it would be very strange for me to simply start posting videos again without addressing my absence. I want to thank each and every one of you for watching my stuff. I’ve missed making content and sharing it with you. I’m excited to start sharing things with you again. If any one of you have gone through something similar to what I explain in the video, feel free to reach out. From this day forward I want to let down the wall I’ve had up all these years. Here’s to an amazing 2023!

I'm glad to hear that you have people around you like your boyfriend and your flatmate and your other friends . I'm really happy for you that you have them. As far as the soshi part, I completely understand what you mean and have felt the same thing. I don't think I've really processed that they're gone now. They've shown that they can take a 5 year hiatus and come back, just like that. So maybe they'll be back again. Who knows. I hope so though (I hope Taeyeon gets some rest first though cause she's been go, go, go for basically the whole year and I am genuinely worried for her). There are some things I just haven't watched. I never watched the last episode of their show this year and I never watched their 2017 slumber party V Live. I'm sure there's other stuff as well. Just so that when I'm low there is new soshi stuff there if I need it. I'm so, so, so sorry to hear about Zinger. I know I'd be completely lost if I lose my Shiro. I know it'll happen eventually but I genuinely think it would break me. He's my only friend and...yeah I can't imagine. He's an absolute brat and is a bit of a Houndini. The place is boarded up like Fort Nox but he always seems to find a way out. And we're in the middle of nowhere so there's not a lot of traffic. But when there IS because there's so little traffic, drivers feel free to fly by and I'm just petrified some day he's going to get hit. Anyway, there's no need to apologise for not being around. Personally, I don't feel that I'm paying for new content, I just feel like the little I'm contributing is just paying back the years of content you've given us - because when I was at my lowest and had no one, you felt like a friend to me. And I know we don't know one another but I'm really grateful you were there for me at that time. So thank you so much Dylan 💕

2023-01-04 00:40:40 +0000 UTCI am so sorry to hear about your struggle, Dylan. And just like Joshua Meister wrote: it's okay to grieve, and it's okay if you don't feel like filming a video sometimes. I subscribed to your channel, and then your Patreon because I love the fact that you are honest with your feelings. So, I completely understand for your so-called disappearance. I would not be happy watching your content knowing that you're dealing with your difficulties - just do it when yyou're ready. Wish you all the best in 2023. Love you a lot.

2023-01-03 11:54:31 +0000 UTCI'm very sorry to hear about Zinger. Our loved ones are never here long enough and always gone too soon. I had to put down my cat Jaguar this year, plus another beautiful cat I was ready to adopt. There's no describing how it feels except having your heart ripped out. Try to remember that even though you can't replace the love you had for them, you can still put new love in your heart and love the ones you have even harder. 2022 has been a royal shitshow. But we'll get through it and 2023 together.

2023-01-01 01:16:38 +0000 UTCI was gonna write something long and maudlin, but I'll just say: it's okay to grieve, and it's okay if you don't feel like filming a video sometimes. I've been watching your channel for a long time, and your enthusiasm is so infectious, that's the reason I like them so much. I know they say "fake it 'til you make it" but please don't feel pressured to make content if you're not feeling ready to do so. I guess that's it. Hope you're doing better, I wish you the best.
