I've put off saying goodbye for a year now. It's so final and there's so much more I want to say, but if I keep waiting until I'm able to properly articulate everything in a video, then I'll just leave everyone who cared about me hanging. So here it is, my short goodbye message. Maybe it'll be followed someday by a longer video goodbye, but probably not.
Why am I leaving? Many reasons in no particular order:
-I don't like sharing my opinions online anymore because the Internet's become such a hostile place.
-My channel has been sub stagnant for like a decade.
-I failed to evolve and adapt my style.
-I don't even watch many cartoons these days.
-I'm so very tired of finding out how many animation people are grooming pieces of trash... it's depressing.
-I feel uncomfortable making content on a platform that did absolutely nothing about the groomer who admitted to it on their site.
-For some mental health reason I don't even fully understand, I struggle immensely to work on editing videos for hours, and I've never been able to sit and write scripts. I have all these ideas in my head that I just... struggle to translate into content. It's always been difficult, but it got way worse over time. That's why I did the podcast/stream thing for so long, I didn't have to plan too much and work so much better with a partner.
-I look back at my content and am just embarrassed by it all, I suck at editing, piggybacked off others' hard work, was super negative, and just contributed nothing. Other people do what I did so much better.
-Anxiety about everything else on this list, and even admitting these things because I fear I'll ruin the joy others got out of my content.
-When I think about being a content creator, I associate it with people hating me and every one of my failures.
-I'm not even Pieguy anymore. This persona was something I made when I was 16, my views and personality and interests have changed a ton since then.
Anyway, I appreciate everyone who I've interacted with on here over the years. Thanks for all the support. I'm going to continue enjoying life out in the real world as myself. I have no plans of deleting this channel or anything, so if for whatever reason you want to watch my videos, most of em are still there.
