rt's been a large part of my life since before youtube was even a big thing. and watching these people, old and new, talking in this livestream has me shedding tears i thought i was too grown and resigned and accepting to let free.
im in a little bit of a "What am i going to do now?" spot too. there's gonna be a void, and im gonna hit a grieving period that i cant dismiss.
the "its just a ____." is such a shit take, and anyone making it is soulless.
my heart really goes out to everyone involved with rt, everyone that poured their heart and soul and creativity into it, from the company side to the contractors to the fandom.
i really hope to see the phoenix [many] rise from the ashes here, and something new and brilliant come from all the people that still want to create and participate and make and reach out and touch.
ill miss you rooster teeth, more than i can express. and i hope that i see you all again in new places and doing what you love.
despite every bump and burn and frustration and angry disappointment, and for every bit of magic and joy and laughter and stupidity and creativity, i've loved being part of it. thanks for the memories.
Rooster Teeth got me through the worst times in my life, and I've met some of my best friends through this amazing incredible fanbase. They have impacted my life more than they will ever realize.
It's been a bumpy ride, but I will never regret being a part of this community.
I am so sorry for this but I did not find a SINGLE post about this year's mavin anniversary tweet in any of tumblr's tags. And the thing is. I want it on my blog.
