The people saying Sketch lied to them are especially weird. Unless you're in a relationship with him he doesn't owe anyone a background check on his sexual history.

[@cablefeed3738]

They want to know about everyone's gay sex they fantasize about it.

they be the same person who say, "i don't care who you sleep with. just keep it to yourself." and when someone did keep it to themselves and hide it from them then suddenly, "you lied to us. you sould've told us from the beginning if you're gay" like which one is it Kevin?

[@artemisameretsu6905]

Exactly, it would almost be weirder for him to be out and open about something he isn't even doing anymore. I wouldn't judge if my friend told me they used to do gay OF but it would definitely be a "Cool.." and awkward silence moment because what else do you say to that 😂

As an animator, the Animated movies doing well makes me happy. The Animation industry has been receiving blow after blow since covid and things have yet to get better. Between AI, cancellations, bad work environments and massive layoffs everywhere, many of us are without a job. The Animation Guild is gearing up to strike and I hope that when they do, things change for the better and we can make more of these movies; the kind that people love to see but also love to make!

[@Itchyboy_]

Go get a real job, if a computer can replicate the work that you do, then you are not valuable to society. Nobody will feel bad for you when you no longer can make a living after you have been warned and had many years to change careers.

​@Itchyboy_ shut up dude the arts are one of the most valuable things anyone can pursue. Actually engaging with it enriches everyone's lives. Except yours apparently.

[@eriklewis1897]

Ignoring the rage-bait reply. Being in the animation industry as well, two things always surprise me around this. 1: The shock around good movies doing well. I can't stop rolling my eyes when studios produce rehashed, made by committee IP and it flops like "Well I guess people just don't want to see movies anymore." No dumb dumb. They don't want to watch trash. Let artists make fucking art for gods sakes, its not some prepacked product made to order. 2: The same studios crying about bad numbers will cancel ENTIRE FULLY MADE FILMS. My studio shit canned 3 50-70% complete films because the corporate media giant that ordered them pissed away millions of dollars trying to prove they could get away with underpaying writers during the WGA strikes.

[@teliov9451]

[@BTOptimizer]

Regarding the Sketch situation, one of my relatives was like that when Ricky Martin came out as gay. They completely lost respect for him and claimed "He lied to his fans!" Once I was older and understood the nuance and why he would hide it I realized "This world is not safe for gay people, let alone those like me in the LGBTQ+ *. We so much as say we're gay and we gamble between getting our shit kicked in or unrelenting love and support. No wonder homie hid it for all those years." * = I found out I was bisexual in high school and had been introduced to friends who are/were also LGBTQ+. They're no different than my friends who are/were straight or cisgender. They are people just like you and me and it shocks me how proud the world is to beat down on us. It's horrifying. Today it shows that standard hasn't changed.

To be fair, we haven’t seen the messages from Dr Disrespect so that this point its allegations from an ex twitch employee. Although he’s admitted he was “inappropriate”, we don’t really know what that means at this point. I’m sure if the messages get released the opinions of many would become harsher (depending on the severity of the messages).

2 more things about the sketch situation: im not sure if you purposefully avoided the dickhead who leaked this stuff to not give him any of the cloud he wanted from this, but he also deserves a ton of heat for outing somebody who did nothing to anybody. and second i think we were missing the jynxi reaction, him bawling over his friend opening up to everybody that he was suicidal over this shit made me tear up aswell, genuine friendship is rare in this industry.

[@TheBmann10]

The entertainment industry simply just doesn’t want to acknowledge the fact that the main thing audiences will come to the movie theaters for is a good movie. The entire industry will prop up these movies that are at best five out of 10, and proceeded to put no marketing behind them, and then will blame movie theaters failing for why the movie under performed. Personally, I think that when we see pieces talking about how theaters are under performing, and are a thing of the past, it’s actually being pushed by executives who are trying to save their ass when they just made a movie that flopped because it was either bad or had poor marketing.

It’s wild that they think the fact he just didn’t mention it is the same as lying. He doesn’t owe anyone his life story, much less his sexual history - unless he’s dating them or something, which obviously his fans and critics don’t fall into that category. People are ridiculous! When it got brought up, he was honest about it. That shows he’s an honest and decent guy. Get over yourselves.

On the Sketch thing: It's not up to anyone else to tell someone when they should come out, FOR ANY REASON. He is not obligated to tell anyone, save for who he might be in a relationship with, about his sexual past. If he's bi or gay, who the hell cares? It's not for anyone else to say he needed to come out and shame on the assholes who outed him. Wreaks of the same shit Nikkietutorials had to go through. Being FORCED to come out is horrible. It would be lovely to live in a world where everyone could be open about their sexuality, but this just shows exactly why people don't come out.

There's no other word to describe the Sketch situation than "disgusting." And by that, I mean how people have been treating him and talking about him following the leak. The fact he was so bullied that he felt he had to APOLOGIZE for it is revolting. The only people that should be ashamed of their actions and remorseful are the people that mocked, berated, and harassed him. And trying to disguise their contempt for his sexuality under the guise of being angry at "lying" is just so transparent. The dude didn't lie. Unless they are your partner (and even that has limits), you don't owe anyone an explanation of your sexuality or sexual history. I'm just so angry. Every time I think we've moved forward as a society with regards to LGBT+ issues, I see these prominent voices speak with such venom and animosity and I just get reminded of what the reality really is.

As long as everyone was a consenting adult, who cares what he did? Those people that are attacking him are why so many people hide who they are and some will end up taking their own lives because of they come out to someone a friend that is looking for support but then get bullied on it. The world still has far too much hate. Maybe one day hopefully during my lifetime we will see the times change.

[@braytastic]

As someone who’s suffered from suicidal tendencies throughout his life, Sketch’s “Plan A” is truly the most heartbreaking, and sadly relatable thing I’ve ever heard. It’s so unfair that we live in a world where people truly believe gay people are the enemy. Every time I hear some idiot say “Just leave the kids alone” I can’t help but feel so much anger, we live in a world where people are deciding to end their own lives every day because it’s easier than dealing with daily harassment for wanting to love who they love. Sketch is a brave fucking dude, I know I’ll be throwing support his way for owning it. But seeing everyone come to his defense, I can only hope it’s making things easier for not only Sketch, but for those scared gay kids watching too.

I hate that he was outed against his will in this way but the saddest thing to me about all of this is the shame that he clearly lives with for just being true to himself.

I was dirt poor at the time and after he tried for days to get the money he eventually stopped asking and stop hitting me up. I completely gave up on social media and becoming my own artist after that, I used social media accounts with no followers and pursued song writing instead.

It's commendable that Sketch faced the situation head-on with honesty and clarity and received a wave of support from significant figures in the streaming industry. While internet hatred is unavoidable, it's heartening to witness solid support able to overshadow hate and grotesque comments from others.

[@NinjaPastry]

The tropical depression that has come up through the Midwest, while bringing in that low pressure/cooler temperatures, has brought 7 inches of rainfall in less than 24 hours in some of the driest spots in Missouri alone. The storms that are going upwards towards Michigan are showing the perfect recipe for tornadic activity. The ground has been so hot and and the air so humid, this onslaught of rain has brought on terrifying flash-flooding that has already killed a firefighter in Boone County, MO. AND THEN the rivers are up by more than 16", so the cities on the banks of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers are prepared for levee breaches. It's so rare for the Midwest to get this much rainfall during the summer months; no one was infrastructurally prepared for this storm.

Surprised that Sneako, the guy who readily openly admits that he loves the movie Cuties and that he gets cucked, is baffled at the idea of someone wanting to keep aspects of their life secret.

[@applejones5576]

I think it makes sense for the pillar of male insecurity (and closeted pedophilia) to be judging the lives of better human beings as he is human trash.

[@Alliebutt]

That's the thing though. Sneako probably gets off on being humiliated, I mean fucking hell he's a cuck. All the more power to the people that like consensually getting cucked, whatever floats your boat. But you definitely have to be into getting humiliated and made fun of in order to be into that I'd reckon, so is it really such a surprise that Sneako can't understand the idea of wanting to hide something about yourself that you probably find humiliating?

I gotta say I dislike XQC for various reasons but he brings up a great point. These people bashing Sketch for having relations with other men are hypocrites. Nothing Sketch done was bad and many people on the side bashing Sketch do way worse things and they remain silent. Or like in the Dr. Disrespect case they call to wait for evidence since they know him. But when it comes from the LGBTIQ+ community it’s immediate “pdf files, groomers, stay away from kids, etc.”. The hypocrisy is just so blatant.

the hate towards Sketch is just unbelievable to me. 'he lied', well did he ever before specifically say he did not do that? lying is completely different from just not telling something. and you don't need to tell everyone everything. I hate when people past decisions, that did not harm anyone and are not illegal, are being held against them. people change, people grown, and still... what is it to you what someone does with their life?! how does anything he did affect you?! how is your life ruined due to his decisions? people who are against him, please explain to me how this has negatively affected your life and it is then okay to bully the guy? god, people start looking at yourselves before judging others. because damn, they're all f-ing hypocrites.

I can’t say I’ve ever heard of The Sketch until this evening but when Phil presented the story, my reaction was “why is this a story?” As long as The Sketch and whoever else in the videos were consenting adults, they have nothing to be ashamed of - they didn’t commit any crimes. We all have done things that we regret and we just have to learn from our mistakes - that’s part of growing up. Frankly, we should, if anything, be jealous of The Sketch for having friends and family that gave him the love and support to remind him that he didn’t do anything wrong and they will be with him no matter what.

Thank you so much for spending a few moments on Beryl (Hi hello, days late bc of guess who) The power grid in TX is falling apart. I have a medical condition that's sensitive to heat & started feeling ill quickly after the power went out. We had almost nowhere to go to escape the heat. All of my local relatives and friends were also without power, and hotels and rentals were booked. News channels were reporting that some counties had NEAR 100% power loss. The power companies were too busy having their workers sit in parking lots and drive around doing nothing while they argued about pay and contracts. I had lost power for 3 days each during the derecho and Beryl, and some in my neighborhood for a WEEK each. More and more people are buying generators, including us. I'm scared for the future.

Speaking as someone from the Caribbean, specifically the Cayman Islands. We got off so lucky compared to some of our neighbours. We got hit as a cat 3 but it just barely avoided making landfall, the hurricane force winds only just brushed the southern coast of our largest island. My father and I evacuated, personally I didn’t want to, but he went through hurricane ivan which destroyed over 75% of buildings in our country. It is extremely concerning for our region to see these stronger and earlier storms. The USA has the money to rebuild when damage occurs, we often do not. Something needs to change with emissions from large countries, the Caribbean is just one of the first regions to be massively affected by climate change, as much as we do to change our habits towards climate change, we are too small to make a global change. We need big countries and international blocks like the USA, Russia, India, China and the EU to change or we will only just be the first to suffer.
