It also weirdly fits with the characters in the stories he does videos on. They often fall down a rabbit hole of their own creation leaving the bounds of our reality behind.

That, and I'm guessing every single person who is here, ended up here by going down the rabbit hole.

I think I went there, actually. I was very concerned for the owls, for sure. I did see one of the ladies there out and about with one of the owls, so she might have been able to fly them as in falconry... but I doubt they do that for the big owls or the tiny owls...

Yeah, I was really surprised at the low animal welfare standards in Tokyo compared to big Western cities. I visited two animal cafes in Japan -- a hedgehog cafe and a snake cafe -- and came away wishing I'd done more research into the ethics of these places. In retrospect, the hedgehog cafe was definitely unethical. When I initially booked the tickets, I didn't realize hedgehogs are nocturnal animals. The hedgehogs just wanted to sleep, and the cafe was basically keeping them awake all day by passing them between patrons. The cages also looked cramped, with a bunch of hedgehogs in each one (I think they're generally solitary animals, so this must have been stressful for them). I felt guilty about giving the cafe money, and wished I'd done more research. In contrast, the snake cafe seemed much more ethical. The snakes seemed healthy, curious and well socialized. The owner taught us how to properly hold the animals so as not to scare them, and explained that the snakes take breaks so they don't get overwhelmed by being handled by too many people. The cages still seemed a bit on the small side, but pet stores in the US keep snakes in similarly-sized cages, so maybe snakes don't need much space? And each snake got it's own cage, which seems good. While I'd like to do a bit more research, I'd probably visit again.

@@MewLime I remember when that blew up I subscribed to his youtube channel and he kept uploading videos teasing strange features that nobody asked for instead of actually finishing the game so I lost interest. Other than that, has he done something strange/shady/interesting?

Jericho I don't necessarily think his habit of implementing odd features out of the blue is the thing people have been getting riled up about- hell, i think the game is actually kinda fun with all the random bits thrown in- that's just what he emphasizes as his main flaw. People actually rip on him because a) the programming itself that he does is incredibly inefficient and it really looks like this is the only programming experience he has (but don't quote me on that) and b) he really, REALLY can't handle criticism. He gets defensive incredibly quickly and has lashed out on a few different videos criticizing him in a way that's ridiculously unprofessional, and then he wonders why people harass him about his childish behavior. I think he has gotten somewhat better about it as time's gone on, but he's still touchy and comparing him now to how he used to be sets the bar pretty damn low. Don't get me wrong, I think he really is trying to perfect the game and has made a lot of progress both in his work and personally, but I still highly doubt he truly knows what he's doing and I can't really sympathize with him whenever he refuses the help he desperately needs. Reminds me a little bit of Diane, actually, just really watered down. As far as I know he hasn't doxxed anyone or caused any real damage, he's just a bit of a basket case when you look behind the calm-voiced-weeby-meme-man exterior.

She was very obviously drunk while writing those comments on Facebook. Whatever good qualities were hidden underneath got washed away with red wine.

She appears to be extremely narcissistic. She ultimately got what she deserved in the end but it’s unfortunate she hurt other people working with her including the cats in her care along the way.

What's worse, she had no cats Kathleen.

@D Zuke alcohol masks the masks fall of

Fredrik would knew about this, is funny to see an angry woman just insulting an youtuber for an entire month Yeah, this is a new Daddy Derek vs IHE

Oh my god, I just discovered this! She's still going!!! Most of her tweets don't have any recognition at all but she doesn't give up. Dear lord, this woman has no limits.

So weird how she is so angry, but his video was fairly impartial

That's definitely the case for a lot of cats, especially those who are never made to become accustomed to close care and attention. That's why it's so important to take them in for regular checks even if they seem fine-so they understand that the vet's office isn't a dangerous place to be afraid of and that they don't have to hide their problems from you.

I come from a family comprised almost exclusively of alcoholics. Only a couple of them are abusive assholes, and, surprise surprise, they're the ones who have never given a shit about their drinking habits and don't see anything wrong with their behaviour. This attitude that Americans have that addicts should be endlessly tolerated and given free excuses to hurt others is one of the most toxic elements of the current PC paradigm. You don't get my sympathy just because you're a fucking wino-if anything, it just makes you that much more detestable and disgusting.

I've watched his documentaries so much that hearing him emote and swear feels odd, but its still enjoyable.

IIRC Fred has said before (I think on Twitter) that he probably won't because it's not as interesting a story to tell as the other subjects - Onision's story arc is just him being an awful person, people like Terry Davis and Wings of Redemption have stories with pathos.

Nothing is to weird for this show, trust me.

If you're interested in something like this I highly recommend checking out TheRightOpinion's videos on onision. They're similar to DTRH, tons of research and hard work were put into those amazingly crafted videos. I ended up watching both of them back to back and I think there's a third on the way. Sucks that it means onision is getting more attention but I'm glad I now understand what a piece of shit he truly is. Seriously, if you wanna hate onision as much as humanely possible just watch the videos 👍 I genuinely hope someone puts a bullet in him soon

I think we had one here in Russia? Wasn't that good apparently, what with the owls being birds of prey, and the owner being more intrested in making those sweet rubles than in animals' wellbeing. I didn't follow it tho, so I don't know how it all ended.

As a followup to what I wrote: Yep, it's in Moscow, it's called Owldom. And they're still operating, apparently! It's both better and worse than Purr. Better financially, because they are actually operating and getting customers and positive reviews. Worse, because as far as I remember, Diane didn't get any of her cats killed. There is at least one confirmed case of an Owldom owl dying (his nickname was 'Aleksandr Makedonskiy' ('Alexander the Macedonian'), or 'Makie' for short). The guy had a fungus infection and several infarctions, the last of which did him in. Not long before that, the customers started pointing out that the owl looked, well, bad (had bald spots etc.) - which prompted the owners to finally send him to rehab clinic 'Lunnaya Polyana' ('Moonglade', and yes, it has owls named Illidan and Malfurion in its care). The owner of the cafe, one Mark Lobintsev, actually went and sued 'Moonglade'. First he claimed that Makie is actually alive and 'recovering', and 'Moonglade' is lying; then, when 'Moonglade' released the record of their initial conversation with Lobintsev about Makie's death, the man claimed that 'Moonglade' was responsible for 'not providing proper care', which killed his stressed out, fungus-infected owl. As of recently, 13th of February or smth, he lost the case in court, though 'Moonglade' didn't disclose the details yet due to their hands being full. This shit dragged on since late 2018 tho, I think.

People are talking stuff though. I didn't read much apart from Makie and Moonglade's case, but almost everyone says that he wasn't the only owl that died in Owldom's care (which isn't hard to believe). I also picked some stuff from VK (russian soc. network) and KZfaq comments under the videos that talk about Owldom. I have no verification for these, but still, here goes (translated from russian): 'They kept silent about the first bunch of birds boiling alive when a heating pipe burst. About none of the birds having any official documents, since all were bought from poachers - even a Red List Eurasian eagle-owl. About the owner evading taxes and the staff working for black salary. About another owl dying from the same fungus as Makie - a strix owl named Fyodor. And the disappearance of long-eared owl Forest.' - yt comms 'At the moment owls of different species, including natural enemies, are kept in a single space and occasionaly move around untied (birds are only locked in at night), which is unsafe not only for the owls themselves, but for people as well, since the larger specimen such as eurasian eagle-, snowy and ural owls are seriously dangerous for humans.' - vk 'Not all birds have special irremovable rings to prove their legal origin. Moreover, several species introduced in the cafe aren't bred in Russia at all. Therefore a question stands about the legality of keeping such animals in captivity, especially in a commercial venue' - vk 'Several customers noticed, and some people with knowledge of the inner workings of the cafe confirmed, that not only were the animals treated poorly, but some even died, only to be replaced with similar-looking specimen.' - yt comms

Если кто-то русскоязычный сумел прочитать вышенаписанное, надеюсь, я привлек ваше внимание. Сейчас в "Лунной Поляне", которая судилась с Совиным кафе, трудные времена - их здание в аварийном состоянии, денег не хватает и т.д. Поэтому они предлагают оформить опеку над их животными. Или можно просто пожертвовать им денег. Реквизиты для финансовой помощи указаны в группе в VK ('Лунная Поляна | Помощь диким животным и птицам'). В закрепе группы более подробно описана ситуация, в которой оказался центр, а также программа опеки. По поводу дальнейшей инфы можно обратиться к админу. Надеюсь, кто-нибудь это увидит и поможет людям заботиться о птичках.

Mr. Wonky Birds of prey are some of the stupidest animals...

Thats not true at all. They are not like cats, and they cannot be 'socialized', they are very distressed when they are kept as pets. They do not form attachment bonds to their handlers that can recognized as affection, they are very intelligent in a way that is unlike other raptor so they are usually mishandled.

I thought it was an individual thing lol. then I started talking to my friends about him and I realized how much people *can* relate to him. He just exhibits so much awkward behavior that it's almost impossible not to relate in some way

That would be such a fun rabbit-hole video to watch/listen to.

hold on, heroin and meth?

@@bookle5829 Yes? I prioritized using heroin every day of course, because not using it caused really bad withdrawals for me (and it's what I'd say I was truly addicted to). But meth was fun and the meth helped me stay conscious, counteracting the heroin. The area I was living, at the time (Phoenix Arizona), was flooded with cheap meth, that my dealers & junkie friends also used and shared with me. So, I could afford to do both. There's even a name for mixing heroin & meth into the same needle & shooting it up at the same time. Heroin definitely #1 though. 😅 Once I was broke, I only bought heroin. (And once I moved back to Wisconsin where meth was shitty and expensive, at least at the time, I didn't bother. Basically none of my heroin junkie friends used meth, our heroin dealers didn't bother selling it or using it themselves either, so totally different situation compared to Phoenix.)

Can you give me a brief synopsis on whatever this is, or a link to an article explaining it?

All I know about him is that he danced t to some undertale songs, then deleted them all and started angrily screaming about how toby fox was trying to steal his soul. I guess he misunderstood the genocide route ending, or something

In the Wings of Redemption QnA, he mentioned that the Painkiller Already podcast crew (of which Kyle is a regular member) was perhaps interesting enough for its own DtRH episode so we might get something that features Kyle even if he isn't the focus.

For the time being, The Gamer from Mars has a video about Kyle.
