#I think the biggest thing I'm trying to get#from the Quint*n R*views situation#is a reinforcement of the 'creators are not my friends' thing#both in terms of 'trying to befriend a creator to get them to date you is bad'#and in terms of 'other creators I like are allowed to have takes I disagree with/think are shit'#like with the knowledge I have now?#I think Dan Ols*n was kind of a dick about it#but I'm still going to watch his videos#because I'm interested in the content he makes#because he's a human being allowed to have shit takes or to fuck up#and because he's not my friend#and nor are Emily or Sarah#they are essentially random strangers who make cool things I enjoy to watch#and that's okay#I'm not going to stop watching a huge swathe of the videos I enjoy because some creators have some interpersonal issue that is#(and I cannot stress this enough)#none of my fucking business#to conclude I don't think Quinton did anything wrong in this situation and I do think his former editor needs help#and not in a sarcastic way – they do seem to be struggling pretty badly#and that it's a bit shit to let prior personal issues affect how you react to somebody being treated poorly#but at the end of the day all y'all are human and messy and imperfect and I cannot be the purity police#I am fucking tired#and unless a creator has provably done or said something absolutely abhorrent? I cannot be bothered to care#also I have censored the names in this because I don't want to get a load of flack#and also because I don't want the people I'm talking about to see this tbh#because they don't need to see my thoughts on their interpersonal situations because I am – again – a fuckin random stranger
