But in all seriousness, have any of you guys heard from him?
Last time I asked about the inability to eat solid food was a couple of months ago if memory serves. He said he was doing well after the move to the UK, but the food situation had not changed. Also he was in desperate need of finding a job and was really struggling on that front.
I hope all is okay.
The last thing I remember seeing from him was a fight with another user, and a slew of deleted comments talking about suicide. I really hope he’s okay
They were hanging around here and posting more in the few weeks following that. I was keeping an eye open for them after seeing that whole… debacle.
Whatever else might have happened I’m pretty confident that that argument, at least, isn’t of concern anymore. I hope.
I have had my own share of publicly threatening suicide over internet arguments, so I guess feel that the urge was already there for him, too. Moving to a different continent is difficult enough without all the other struggles Squid has shared, I just hope someone who knows him irl is checking in on him
Damn, hope they’re OK!
I’m going to err on the side of optimism and believe he’s just been busy with his new job and moving his wife and kid(s) across the pond.
Edit: grammar
Same hopefully either that or he just needed to do a smart phone detox or something
Ooooooor, he got tired of the BS job offers and decided to go all Squid’s 11 and rob the Crown Jewels?
Coming Soon to a Theater Near you!
*err
I am just a simple Southern ‘Murican. 😂
But thank you.
No, we haven’t :(
Well that’s…worrying, sending good vibes @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world wherever you’re at
I am definitely concerned, I didn’t interact with them directly often but I liked seeing the positive updates about their family’s move.
Hopefully everyone is doing well and just have more important, happy things keeping them occupied.
I’m not a fan of the dude but while lecturing me they did say they were broke and had health issues they couldn’t afford, maybe just hospital stuff in a country with more socialized healthcare?
Hoping all is well for him and his family. A major move like that in fairly short time is a lot to handle. I read a post not too long ago that his daughter has more friends and socialization going on in the brief time there than when in the US.
Be well Squid!
I have very few memories from the first three months after moving. The stress of moving combined with looking for a job combined with selling our old house just all piled on to everything. Couldn’t imagine what it’s like with the added burden of children and it being a different country.

Someone in this thread said UK, but I don’t personally know.
When we moved from Argentina to Australia my son was 4. He wasn’t able to ask for water in kindergarten 🥺🥺🥺
Moving countries to provide a better life for your progeny will do that.

So we’re just making shit up now?
@Muaddib@sopuli.xyz has a bunch of children chained up in their basement.

So we’ve gone from “HE’S A CHILD PORN PEDDLER” to “he has baby pictures of his daughter”
You’ve described that in a completely disingenuous way.
I notice you haven’t addressed the basement children. What are you hiding??
it’s really fucking weird that you think of naked baby pictures as “nudes”. something tells me you’re not allowed within 500 meters of schools.

“There’s nothing lewd about saying I’m busting it down sexual style, I love busting it down sexual style at the preschool.”

So like, when you’re at the pool and a toddler runs around without her shirt on, does your mind just explode or what?

it wasn’t. weird how you got defensive about something no one accused you of.
Which pizza place does he live in?
What the fuck
Source: trust me bro
Yeah, I was wondering about him, too. I think it’s wild the Lemmy is tight knit enough for stuff like worrying about specific users. Reminds me of the days when forums were the dominant social media of the internet.
Naw. Sent a DM a couple days back to check in, but have heard nothing. Here’s hoping they’re just busy with the real world.
Last I knew he was finding a job to ensure his family was all good. Hopefully he just threw himself into his work and is stabilizing his family matters. Best of luck to everyone out there doing what they can to get by.
-love some doof you’ll never meet
And jawa21?
I’ve been worried about Jawa21 as well. https://startrek.website/u/jawa21 shows a deleted account now again :(
jawa21 was https://lemmy.sdf.org/u/jawa21 for the past several months, but that is also deleted
Oh I missed their move somehow. That’s is also worrying
Last I saw, there was some troll issue on their instance, then nothing. Account wiped. Rather concerning.

No, because I blocked them.
Downvote away if you want. But they had became a nuisance in the comment sections. My feed is extremely peaceful and less toxic ever since I can’t read their replies.
You’re probably being downvoted because your comment is just plain…rude.
Setting healthy boundaries is always perceived as rude by those unaware of the trespassing, yes. I like the quiet, I prefer the quiet.
Ranting about your boundaries with other people is different than setting them
I’m not ranting. I just stated something I did, and I am in full right to do. It’s my feed. I don’t have to see or interact with someone I don’t want to. And you lot are not helping. In mental health crisis social networks are a liability, not an asset. You’re a bunch of hypocrites who extracted entertainment from someone’s else struggling then want to claim moral superiority because I was rude. They needed IRL support, not a bunch of randos from the internet prying in their private life for emotional leeching.
You’re free to set your boundaries.

Thus why I did not comment on the main post
Eh, Squid was definitely a bit of a shit stirrer the last couple weeks I saw them post. Pretty sure they caught some bans from a few communities for incivility. Hope everything is going ok for them, but I think taking a break from Lemmy will be a good thing.
O no! I hope all is alright.
Hopefully he’s just busy making friends in a new country and getting his family across the pond safely. 🖖
Maybe they started playing the FlyingSquidGame

Yay, toxicity!
Toxicity? In our city?
What, do you own the world?
We’d need some kind of a system to deal with that … Maybe one that would go … I don’t know, up? Is that right?

Went to the beach for a donkey ride and just rode off into the sunset.
I think he became English, and in doing so ascended to a higher plane of sanity then the rest of us. So long, and thanks for all the memes.

How many countries in the world meet your standards of sanity?

I personally believe that the terfs in the UK are just the way they are because of tea withdrawal or something. Unfortunately all Brits I’ve contacted as part of proving this hypothesis have been uncooperative, due to not wanting to give up their tea for more than 48h.

You’d be surprised. I do indeed know people from there but you are right it’s alcohol that most of them are dependent on not tea. (Though that sample does also drink a lot of tea)
