Sister services, email, and search will continue to be negatively effected by the attacks. I made a thread to talk about it, if you're into networking.
Thomas "Tomska" Ridgewell used to be one of the most well known comedy channels in the UK. Internationally his work on the "ASDF" movies is what he's best known for, he's also the voice of the character Tom in the late great Edd Gould's Eddworld series and later took over the show at his best friend's after they passed on.
Thomas is a sad sight to behold, be it his friend's death or him grasping with his fame he's quite literally ballooned as a man and become a washed up fatso. At most times he's pathetic and on the rare occasion will reveal his true colours as surprisingly bitter and two-faced to people.
An example of this would be his relationship with Christopher Bingham, or "Bing." Tom had been perving on Bing's sister, ThatJennyBee, since she was around 14, as detailed in the vlog below from 2013. The reason why they broke up is rumoured to have been because Tom cheated on her with another woman, this made Bing rather (understandably) mad and in some sort of reaction after the break up Tom purged videos featuring Bing and his sister from his vlog channel in addition to changing descriptions of collabs with Bing to mocking nicknames.
Thomas touts himself as a male feminist and all around good guy role model, but in reality he's a creep and a chauvinist. Another incident I can recall is his controversy over a series of "Sex Talk" videos, this along with many tumblr posts actually gave rather ignorant and potientially harmful advice to his underage fans.
Members of Sleepycabin like Spazkid (a potential cow in his own right) have attacked him for this and other incidents. One case is where OneyNG called him out for being abusive to animators and refusing to pay them, in response Tom deflected by attacking Oney for "homophobia" and insinuating he was as dangerous to youths as Sam Pepper.
Caps of OneyNG were sourced from the Mattimation tumblr, which includes what is basically the full story including a later apology from Tom for getting caught.
Throughout 2015 and 2016 TomSka had made efforts to catalogue his diet and attempt to lose weight. Recently he's decided to just fuck it and go full body-poz instead of trying to better himself in any way. You can find seeds of this wallowing in old posts like these:
Speaking of Eddsworld drama, on the contrary to what he claims, Tom and his co-star Tord never really liked each other. Tord left early on into the show's popularity to get away from the fans. A lot of people wanted him back, so Tom wrote him into the finale with a different voice without the original Tord's consent, making him into a villain and Tom being cast as the hero who saves the day. He tried to justify this by saying it was symbolic of Tom dealing with the resurgence of Edd's cancer, but in the end it's an inappropriate way to end your dead friend's series that he personally wanted you to take care of.
There's also problems with him taking too long to get out episodes, taking about three years to complete a one-year project, and backer rewards for the Eddsworld Indiegogo not being delivered on time. Years old drama, but typical cow behaviour.
At one point he was so fat that he couldn't actually diet; a professional trainer gave up on him and got kicked out of weight loss programs because his alcoholism would've been fatal. He's also had e-fights with Shadman over him drawing porn of Tom's dead friend getting fucked by the Grim Reaper. Pretty fucked on Shad's part, and justified on Tom's, but a cow crossover nonetheless.
Here's his respective weights before he became a sadcow.
Here's him more recently.
There's a bit of Tumblr pandering sprinkled on this shit sundae:
Allegedly, the undertale characters (yes, seriously) and :islamic: woman were meant to be backers who donated to Eddsworld legacy, and they got fucked over at the last minute because the artist is a hardcore SJW. There are no muslim sounding names in the credits either:
He also did a short-lived podcast, one of the episodes was on GamerGate if that's your thing.
Due to Tom's and Spaz's tendency to backpedal, the two have managed to delete fucking everything whenever their beef together backfires. If anyone else has more info that'd be fantastic. Most of the heavy lifting for this thread was done by @chadmuska, @penelope shitstop and @TheScooper, so thanks to them for giving me a template to base this on.
