"Jim" / James Augustine née James Patrick O'Shaughnessy / Mister Metokur / Jim81Jim / Internet Aristocrat - His autistic videos and the gay beta "sweetie squad" who mindlessly suck his cock

[4str4staleatherbelt]

Buck Breaking came out & Jim is most likely too sick to make fun of it. Tragic.

Totalbiscuit was working like a horse in his final weeks. Quit simping. The worst thing about Jim's canceraids is it's given people an easy out to calling him what he is. A lazy Irishman. His behavior hasn't changed. His fans have just given him a new excuse because they can't accept the truth. They truly want to believe content would return if not for the canceraids and that this is the only reason he can't deliver. Like he's completely exhausted and drained of all energy 100% of the time he's not tweeting.

 

[Smug Chuckler]

Jim went all in on the covid. Has he said anything about it now that its been a year?

He made a tweet about the death count like 6 months ago and that's it.

 

[FatMebius]

Yep for some reason people think Jim is Doctor Murdoch. Except that DM has kids and we know that Jim doesn’t have kids

Murdoch and Chan are hiding in plain sight too.

People have speculated that Chan was some flavor of Chink for years, but I'll be damned if these two fucks don't sound just like the two of them.

Working like a horse at what? Bitching nonstop on Twitter that Hitler Trump destroyed healthcare and Britain's is so much better?

To have gone out at 33 is tragic and I deeply sympathize for his widow.
But TB went off the rails about midway through his treatment.

The Cynical Brit officially retired a month before dying, but still did gameplay streams and little videos, or at least claimed to, afterwards.

When I went into hospital a week or so ago, it was accompanied by the news that conventional chemotherapys effectiveness had been exhausted. My body has become resistant to all forms of it according to my oncologist. 46 chemo treatments, 138 days plugged into a pump. Let nobody ever say I wasn't stubborn. Unfortunately this was followed up a couple of days later with some more bad news. My liver is failing and its effectiveness has lowered past the point where the clinical trials I had been offered would take me on. Yes apparently there are things that are too dangerous for even the terminal. Obviously we're going to keep looking for other trials but I'm currently coming to terms with the fact that I don't have long left and right now at any rate, there is literally nothing I can do about it other than try to manage the pain as best as possible and stay as hydrated as possible to ease the pressure on the liver. There are quite a few pain management options left to try and the ones that I am using can be increased in dosage quite significantly if need be. The majority of the pain is being caused by pressure on the spine from hardened nodules in the liver and lung as well as fluid. We haven't fully explored the options for dealing with all of that, but its high priority so that my quality-of-life can improve.

That's what it comes down to now, getting my quality-of-life to as good a standard as possible. Even though you don't really have any treatments to fight with any more, I firmly believe that the will to live is a very strong asset and that is much easier to maintain when you're not in crippling pain all the time.

That will most likely be my last health update, unless some miracle happens or we do indeed find a trial that can do something despite the damage to my liver. I'd ask people not to speculate about how long I might have left. I've deliberately left out some details to try and reduce the behavior, though it might very well have the opposite effect. All I do know is that kind of thing is upsetting to some of my viewers that read it and I'd rather not encourage it. I've already exceeded the "usual" lifespan of someone with my condition so whatever numbers people come up with are just that.

Its now a case of "what do I do with the time I have left?" Why am I telling you? Because if you're a viewer of my content, its relevant to you.

Retirement, sort of

Firstly, I am retiring as a games critic. I can't do the job anymore. I'm under the influence of too much medication to think clearly and my schedule too unreliable to get coverage out in a timely manner. I've found it very stressful over the last year to try and keep up, knowing that I'm failing and watching my work (rightly) fall out of favour because there isn't enough of it, its not on time or its not of good quality. It doesn't make any sense to continue to try to do that job in my state and while it used to bring me a lot of satisfaction, now it's just the opposite.

Does that mean I'm done with Youtube and Twitch? Nope, blokes gotta make a living. I have a family to consider and there's no such thing as "too much" when it comes to what I leave them when I go out kicking and screaming. I want to spend the rest of my time with the two things I love the most, my family and my work. I'm transitioning my Youtube and Twitch work over to gameplay with my wife. There's a bunch of co-op stuff I never really got around to playing and I have the perfect gameplay partner right beside me. When I'm having a good idea, I'll be doing gameplay streams and Youtube videos with Genna. If you want to know what to expect from that, well we've done it before, just not recently, there's some rather popular videos of it over on Her channel

This is something that will make me happy, spending time with my family but also getting job satisfaction. That's something all too easily overlooked by some, I'm a very work-driven person and one of hardest things of the past couple of years has been dealing with not being able to reliable do my work. It's brought on depression, uncertainty, anger, you name it. I hate it.

Chemo and radiation will do that to you. Mentally you lose energy which can also mean your filter, and you feel like such shit you don't really give a fuck (+ the high/poor decision making from hard pain killers) and that is with a good prognosis (aka "You have a cancer that although is stage 4 has a 98.xx% 10 year survival rate" I can't imagine what one like TB's would be like with the added "You could very well die soon" shit.

 

[Azrn0239]

A stream reacting to BB would have been like his old Metokur in the Morning streams reacting to random shit happening at the time

We only have Josh's stream on it now. Twice the information, half the charisma.

 

[Disheveled Human]

So Metokur is doing Gundam model kits. Why do people think this guy is cool again?

 

[:gold:]

He is building a Gundam coffin, according to ancient Egyptian rites. Once finished, Jade, dressed as Sailor Moon, will be buried alive with him.

 

[garakfan69]

Why do people think this guy is cool again?

Because he always surrounded himself with even bigger losers.

Going full Sumerian then. He'll definitely need to take some merch with him, since 8ts obvious he'll need them in the afterlife

 

[Sprate Header]

Found a guy.

He retweets Shoe0nHead lol

 

[#KillAllPedos]

I remember in that early video he did "the decline of the 5th estate" he mentioned he'd studied journalism while explaining the concept. Don't know if that involves cubicles though.

On his ask.fm, he mentioned working in a real estate office before college

As for the journalism thing, it’s quite possible he at one point actually wanted to be a video games journalist, but changed his mind. That’s what his history suggests to me anyway.

 

[EyelessMC]

he and the voice actor kinda got into it back during the zoosadist leaks.

Wait, is JCS a furry or was he running defense for the furries?

 

[Ged's Forth]

It was the voice actor not whoever runs the channel, and both.

Remember, if you don't spend your days with chronic illness reading hours worth of superchats, you're a lazy bitch because Total Biscuit. You heard it here, folks.

There's a difference between demanding a guy push through his illness to make vids and expecting a guy to put in at least the bare minimum of effort. Pretty sure that's the reason I've seen him compared to Spoony. Still, I really doubt anyone would be put-off by his inactivity considering the guy has cancer but he's a Twitter head now. For all anyone can typically know the guy's been dead six months and his widowed eggroll has been manning his account in his stead.
Don't see why anyone would be angry one way or the other about it though, unless they just wanted to relive 2019 that badly.

 

[SpergWatcher]

He's been laughing at that fat grifter Karlyn Borysenko for almost 2 days now on Twitter. Probably is just me that have been paying more attention to the spergs on the Breadtube community, but all I know about that lady is that she's famous cause she looks like your average fat SJW but felt bullied by lefties so she joined the right and has been shilled by Sargon at some point, but don't really find her to be all that interesting or lulz worthy.

 

[berenstain]

I don't think this paper has been mentioned on here, but it's actually a wonderful analysis on Metokur's Wu Flu streams, and it was published fairly recently (May 28th).

https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00113921211006115
(pdf link: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/00113921211006115)

I also am calling all lolcows by their proper academic name, "AMPs" (Alternative Media Personalities), from now on.

Spoiler: Some selected quotes

"Mister Metokur is a popular AMP within far-right communities online (Riberio et al., 2020). His content usually offers commentary on pertinent sociopolitical issues by ridiculing, what he perceives as, the social degeneracy of Marxism, Transgenderism, and Globalism. Between 23 January and 30 March 2020, Metokur produced 12 video livestreams (streams) where he provided commentary on emerging COVID-19 information. The streams totalled 1,895 minutes of recorded content, and the stream archives have and amassed around 1,033,000 views on YouTube. By comparison out of 10 credible scientific platforms on YouTube, only four produced any video content on COVID-19 (Table 1). By offering early, long-form, and relatively uncontested coverage, Metokur was privileged to present a far-right reframing of COVID-19 that may amplify perceptions of risk within an information-seeking audience."

"Using the Fallout videogame series as another contextual allegory Metokur described a possible future where neoliberal decadence subject to the effects of social Darwinism brought upon by traditionally masculine survival responses. As such, Metokur encouraged his audience to stockpile guns and ammunition, and engage with preparedness measures so that they could re-emerge into the COVID-19 post-apocalypse and (re)claim dominance within social hierarchies."

"Metokur’s use of videogame analogies and Chinese social media video content developed a sense of authenticity by providing his online audience with relatable contexts and tangible examples for risk information which was largely absent from mainstream media coverage. Furthermore, embedded within the Certainty frame were performative aspects, such as edgy and politically incorrect humour, which may not be permitted on mainstream media platforms. In general, the Certainty frame may outline the ‘draw’ of risk-amplifying, conspiracy-laden, infotainment. AMPs may select this frame to present their content as the reality TV of scientific discourse; a raucously entertaining affair where technical nuance is discarded in favour of wild interpretations of risk information."

Personal favorite:
"Analysis of the Uncertainty frame seemingly indicates a locus for AMPs to express contentions around the sociopolitics of science and the manipulation of reality. AMPs may rely upon resonant cultural understandings of science as an objective methodology which is designed to be systematically independent of social subjectivities. In situations where scientific actors are perceived as failing scientific ideals, this may provide AMPs the opportunity to establish where sociopolitical influence is built into scientific systems. This adopts a conspiratorial quality when potential sociopolitical influence is used within narratives to suggest the systematic manufacturing of a data-driven hyperreality that directly supports neoliberal policy goals. As AMPs are generally independent content creators, this may foster parasocial relationships with audiences where the perceived authenticity of risk interpretations becomes more valued than accurate predictions."

Her meltdown over CRT has been great to see. You could also see the grift a mile away when her main thing was speaking at "walk away" events, probably one of the most boomer aspects of the Trump days. This absolutely would have been stream material back in the day, a whole Goodbye Carl-style stream dedicated to dunking on her.
