Yeah it sucks that they've buried the lede here because "GrandPoohBear groped me" is way more important to highlight than any of the 11 pages of stuff which is totally harmless and basically just GPB being a bit of a selfish friend.


GPB also had that thing around the same time where he was teamed up with xQc for something where he (xQc) was discovered to be cheating. After saying some words about how cheating is bad and he's disappointed yadda yadda yadda like a week later he was doing more stuff with the guy again no issue so yeah with all of this I stopped watching any GPB's stuff.

When all of the GrandPoobear / TheDragonFeeney stuff came up I was watching GPB vids daily on YouTube and I was really bummed—it was like Nick Robinson all over again (person who was once a favorite content creator basically becomes dead to me in a day). But I read Feen's complaints, and as others have said, it read more like she was saying he's a bad friend rather than saying he was a sexual predator or anything hosed up like that. There was that one mention near the end of her letter about a potential groping that might have happened at a public event, but GPB (and his wife who was there at the time) categorically deny that, and from what I understand Feen never really pressed it beyond that. Also I don't think there were any other witnesses or other potential victims who came forward, making it even harder to tell what actually might have happened.

The last person I want to be on the face of the earth is that piece of poo poo white cis male who dismisses a woman's claims of abuse, but there was something about the way she presented her accusation that made it very difficult to tell what exactly had happened, and ultimately I decided I could keep watching GPB without feeling like I was supporting a sex pest.

Fast forward to today and I haven't watched a GPB video in probably like a year. And I honestly couldn't tell you if it's a reaction to Feen's accusation after all, or if I just kinda grew out of his content.

So while I do feel a need to defend him to this thread against being a sexual predator, because it's a bit more complicated than most may realize, I ultimately guess I don't really care if people watch him or not since I'm not even watching him anymore. Hell world is hell. :smith:

Yeah, I'm pretty positive that with details in hand something can be done, but right now all I've got in hand is one trans-speedrunner-positive tweet in 2019.

i've got hands i trust i can put stuff into, but if he's either turned over a new leaf or is able to keep a lid on the fact that he hasn't in order to be tolerated in polite society, there's not a lot to do.

the first one is yikes but even more than the age is some blandly trans-positive tweeting more recent than that

the second one might have some legs. i'll see if i can get it in the right sets of ears to make a thing of it. i've got the headspace right now to at least try

Not sure if this interests anybody else but I was watching these attempts on twitch and it was quite an endeavor. maynarde did Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, and all DLCs 100% completion back-to-back (7.5 hrs). It's been uploaded to youtube now.

The actual schedule (with times/days) for SGDQ is released, in case anybody wants to start super early planning out their watch week:
https://gamesdonequick.com/schedule

Finale is Elden Ring - "All Rememberances" 2-hour* run followed by a 30-minute any% run.

*It's listed as two hours on the schedule but the runner is now at like 1:17 or something and there's still another month to maybe get that down further.

1:17 is in game time. Real time it's like half an hour longer. Even if they don't do quitouts for doors at the marathon, there's still a bunch of quitouts for other stuff iirc.

This is speedrunning enough so I can link it.

Joshimuz speedruns GTA San Andreas missions made by random people and they're as good as you might expect.

I love how he always tries to get interviews with the runners. It makes the videos way more engaging for me versus the typical record videos that only feature 3rd person narration.
