Robert Edwin Thrumston III (yes, really), who now goes by Emma or Emi, is a trans Youtuber whose videos focus on the topic of pretending to have dissociative identity disorder. Due to his attention-seeking tendencies, Robert has taken up the habit of repeatedly discussing Kiwifarms on his amateur blog while flip-flopping between pretending to not care and attempting takedowns of his information. He has proven to meticulously comb through Kiwifarms specifically looking for his name, and thus he will predictably waddle upon this thread to continue to drain it for all the precious, delicious pity and attention he can.
Special thanks to @zedkissed60, @Ellesse_warrior, and @Special spoonie for their support and effort collecting information for this thread.
ATTENTION SEEKING AND HISTORY
The most immediately obvious quirk of Robert is his often-asserted (and possibly self-diagnosed) dissociative identity disorder, a condition which in of itself is considered an illegitimate or questionable disorder that is often faked by patients or imposed by therapists within the psychological sciences. In general, DID (previously known as multiple personality disorder, or MPD) is regarded as a coping mechanism under the broad umbrella of dissociative disorders (hence the name change) rather than an actual disease or disorder with genetic/biological signifiers.
This cursory comprehension of the condition, coupled with the tendency the communities he partakes in to often fake having DID for attention, heavily demonstrates Robert is pretending to have the condition to seem more interesting than he actually is...or "was," had he left Kiwifarms well enough alone. His usage of terms exclusive to these communities (such as referring to himself as a "system") further confirms this notion.
As a further demonstration of his pretend-lunacy regarding DID, it's deranged as expected, but more irritating than fascinating due to Robert regularly picking up, dropping, and "fusing" his personalities according to whimsy. As expected, this makes it nearly impossible to keep track of who he's currently acting as beyond his attempts to differentiate his personas via poorly done accents. Unsurprisingly, Robert often devotes entire videos discussing his identities, usually more so than any other topic (including videos which are meant to focus on completely unrelated matters).
Given his feigning of DID, an especially cynical (or perhaps just perceptive) individual could further believe his sexual transitioning is yet another ploy for attention. This particular facet of Robert did work if he indeed intended to use it as such, as he managed to nab a spot on his local news station in order to film a dreadfully boring snippet discussing his transition.
Given his tendency to fake a mental disorder to gain attention, many of Robert's other claims are especially dubious, such as this blog post where he claims to have been sexually abused as a child, a topic he has never touched on before and presumably never will again.
As for his personal life outside of these alleged mental conditions, Robert's history is well documented but rather uninteresting, the documentation of which is at the bottom of the thread. His wife, shown in his interview, has since divorced him. After studying sociology in college, he worked as a paralegal assistant before claiming to be a psychotherapist, although no evidence exists showing he's properly licensed to do so. Despite this, there are videos where Robert happily brags that he's indeed a supposed psychotherapist.
Regarding his online presence, Robert went by the username of "thru5972," which he confirmed himself on his Twitter.
This is further confirmed by his Youtube channel, where its original URL included the username "thru5972." However, not too much has yet to be discovered searching this username beyond amusing ramblings by Robert. Perhaps the future shall reveal more.
RELATIONSHIP WITH KIWIFARMS
Upon receiving a brief mention in a Kiwifarms thread unrelated to him, Robert decided to abuse this offhand discussion for attention, creating multiple entire videos on the topic.
If Robert had simply ignored being mentioned, his story would end there, as Kiwifarms users repeatedly demonstrate to have the memory and attention span of a protozoa. But due to his incessant banging on about Kiwifarms and how much he does not care about it at all, Robert wound up getting himself thoroughly and unabashedly "doxxed."
No longer concerned with appearing apathetic, Robert proceeded to send multiple emails to the operator of Kiwifarms in an attempt to get his dox taken down, as presented by this extremely cursed screenshot using the light theme (and text quoted below). This is confirmed to be Robert as he uses his personal email to send these messages, utilizing the "thru5972" username well before it was linked to him.

Hi,
My name is Emma Edwins and I was just doxxed on a thread related to team pinata and DissociaDID.
It needs to come down immediately, because I'm pretty sure that's very illegal.
Kind regards,
Emma Edwins

No, this is harassment and I will file charges to have it taken down if I need to. I'd rather not have to do that so please just take the post down to save all of us a legal headache.

Kind regards.
Interestingly, Robert demands the information be removed due to himself, a paralegal employee and expert in the judiciary system, claiming he is "pretty sure that's very illegal." A endless pit of empathy, Robert claims to not want to press changes as long as the information is removed in order to "save all of [them] a legal headache." With his kindness in regard, the operator of Kiwifarms and its users have since caved to his demands and taken down his information to avoid legal trouble, thus it cannot be found anywhere on the website, especially not in this very post.
With what's come to pass, it is almost certain that Robert's attention-seeking has yet to be sated. It is unquestionable that he will continue to play the victim because his public information was on a website he continuously antagonized for the sake of pity and support. Even without his ploys for sympathy, Robert's lunacy regarding faking mental disorders shall continue to serve as an unending means of entertainment, especially given that his long history of blogging and vlogging means he shall go on to post even more insane content for the foreseeable future.
