I’d love to be proven wrong (because he had a pretty big impact on my worldview in my mid 20s and he’s got a wonderful singing voice), but the last I heard of Daniel he had been accused of grooming. (Warning Reddit link, but I did find a host of articles by searching “dan avidan controversy” in case you don’t want to give Reddit traffic).
Sorry. Like I said, I’d love to be proven wrong. He seemed like a really cool guy.
Literally all the comments in that thread are pointing out how the accusations and the evidence provided are bullshit as none of the girls were actually underage at the time, along with evidence of their own to back it up (including the original poster saying they made it up and deleting their Twitter but some user in the comments had screenshots). So…
Okay, if I… if I chop you up in a meat grinder, and the only thing that comes out, that’s left of you, is your eyeball, you’r- you’re PROBABLY DEAD! You’re probably going to - not you, I’m just sayin’, like, if you- if somebody were to, like, push you into a meat grinder, and, like, your- one of your finger bones is still intact, they’re not gonna pick it up and go, “Well see, yeah it wasn’t deadly, it wasn’t an instant kill move! You still got, like, this part of your finger left!” NO I’M NOT GONNA PUT YOU INTO A MEAT GRINDER. I’M NOT GONNA PUT YOU INTO A MEAT GRINDER. NO. I’m making a reference to the fact that, like, if I, like, if I were to get fucking KILLED… I don’t know, YOU KNOW WHAT I’M SAYIN’. If- if- okay, if you were to- okay we’re gonna take humans out of this, if alien Globgobglobgo 1 fuckin’ shoots a disintegrating ray at alien Globglo 2, if there’s only fucking TEETH LEFT, it’s- it’s fucking you’re dead, you’re dead.
“If I were to put you in a meat grinder,” goddamnit, it’s so fucked up! You understand what I’m sayin’ though, I’m not actually saying that I’m going to put somebody in a meat grinder, goddamnit. Whatever.
an entirely sane and not completely deranged psychopath.
Gabe Newell has done a lot for gamers and SPECIALLY for us in Linux Gaming, but he’s still a billionaire with a yacht collection , give him props for his contributions but i don’t think adding him to a “Good people list” is quite on point
I like Adam Savage. I watch Adam Savage. However, be careful putting anyone on a pedestal. The claims were settled out of court which doesn’t mean anything either way. And I think all of us feeling like we have more familiarity with Adam himself would definitely rather side with him and his version of things. But that’s just bias at this point.
Adam is most definitely a fascinating guy with a varied and interesting work experience. We can all safely say that for sure. And has overtime become a great presenter with a lot of wisdom to share. And that’s probably where we should keep it. 🙂
