      I feel like AVGN is just mentally over the YouTube channel, he doesn’t enjoy it anymore, but he still needs it as a stream of income. I just assume that he enjoys time with his family and barbecues, and the channel is just a job. I don’t blame him, but I haven’t watched him in many years.

      I’m just spitballing here. But this feels like a common problem in capitalism: it ties us to a job we don’t love and drains our emotional energy. Arguably, AVGN is doing better than most of us, and he’s probably relatively unhappy.
