A couple of people seem to take every health update I do as an opportunity to spit some hate mail my way. If you don't want to watch these updates, then don't. They're not for you.

My conditions are real, diagnosed and often hard to cope with. It is easier for me to make a video to keep my friends, community and fans updated, rather than to have the same depressing conversation dozens of times.

Sometimes I need help, and it has been difficult to ask for help in the past in part due to attitudes like yours. Sometimes I know that talking about my issues has helped other people, and it helps me to talk about it. I don't want to make it my entire personality, but I do like being able to help people.

If my content production is interrupted, it's a good idea to tell people why. Most people are sympathetic or glad to know what's going on.

It's challenging enough dealing with chronic pain, depression, anxiety, dangerously high blood pressure and drug side effects without having a handful of deluded, hateful wankers taking every opportunity to kick me while I'm down to mask their own insecurities and the impending implosion of their political project.

I hate that you can't talk about anything, on any subject, without people assuming you're being disingenuous or holding the worst version of that position that is possible. I talk about my issues because it helps me, helps others, and it's easier to communicate from a central point.

If you don't like me, think I'm grifting or whatever else, just stroll on and do something else.

Continuing in the vein of electrocuting myself, I messed up my medication last night and barely slept. As a result, I feel like re-fried arse. I shall report back on the Stray Crows playtest tomorrow, but no video today. It has been a stressful time at Stately Grim Manor, what with health issues, electrocution, forgetting to take my medicine, friends in need and assorted enshittification, but we soldier on.

Zang!

You may have heard in my voice that I was in a lot of pain yesterday. I followed that up by electrocuting myself (twice) on a faulty light-fitting in the evening, and I still feel a bit 'peaky'. While I wait to see if I develop superpowers, you'll have to go a day without a video.

Tax day, which always sucks all the energy out of everything else. I don't mind paying tax, it's the bureaucracy that fucks me over.

Had a late Tabletopless last night, sort of last minute and haven't done it in a while, so it's wrecked me a little. Normal service shall be resumed as soon as possible.

There is a poll over on the blog (it needed more options than are allowed here). Please share the poll outside my normal audience and spread it through your social media, blogs and other means. I think I need to change the name of the Ronin project to something else so...

Last night was the first Tabletopless since before Christmas, and I'm cream crackered. So there might not be a video today.

'Ealth updates get pretty boring. I'm waiting on an ultrasound (Sunday), X-ray (Thursday) and a Magnetic Resonance Angiogram (no date confirmed yet). In the meantime, I've been extending my holiday into this week and possibly next, trying to rest as much as possible while slowly easing back into things.

No I don't know why the Pioneer shorts aren't showing up as shorts, Apparently, even though they're vertical and under 3 minutes, the Shorts detection algorithm is only reliable for videos under 1 minute, and categorisation can otherwise take weeks.

Lame.
