    Hey, I just wanted to reach out and thank you for sharing that video, and introducing me to that channel too. I'm not autistic either, but I still found the video incredibly helpful, and I keep going back to it whenever I am feeling down. IMO, one of the comments on that video sums it up perfectly:

    If someone had told me six months ago that the best mental health channel on YT was made by a guy that cleans and organizes houses for a living, I probably would have thought they were joking.

    They weren't joking.

    Yep. Unfortunately it's the same this time too. This is what I see: No worries though, I own all the Discworld books already. ;)

    I assume that remains the case for this one.

    I also removed the "(big surprise)" part too, since that feels overly editorialized.

    YVW, and no worries. Both punk.synth and hip hop.industrial have only been used once before, and
    industrial.post     only twice before, so it's not surprising you haven't noticed them before. But that's the nice thing about Tildes collaborative tagging system; We can all help each other out, and in the process we all can learn about cool musical genres (and bands) we've never heard of before too. :)

    I don't know what kind of indie pop you listen to, @Camus, but this wasn't what I would consider pop music of any kind, nor I suspect would 99.9% of other people. :P

    RYM has it listed as Synth Punk, Post-Industrial and Industrial Hip Hop, and I think that's a lot more accurate... so I have changed the genre tags to those instead.

    Yeah, I thought these tracks were genuinely beautiful too. And I actually like them way better than the originals, TBH.

    I had never heard of this YouTuber before but randomly got recommended this video. They are pretty new to YouTube, and very very clearly copying Any Austin in terms of subject matter and even style as well. However, despite that, I still thought this was a pretty decent and interesting video worth submitting here.

    Yeah, it's pretty fucked up that he never made any residuals from Dawson's Creek. And the situation was made even worse because of how fucked up the US healthcare system is too. Depressing stuff....

Depressing stuff. :( Although at least it did my heart some good to read that people were helping his family with the GoFundMe.
