Christmas Livestream, Crazy Cache, and Update

I haven't been around much lately and wanted to say thankyou for all your work and that I'm excited to see your upcoming projects. Hopefully in the New Year a big bunch of your YT followers will become Patreon supporters and you'll be able to ease back on your day job so that you can get back to your real job, which is being awesome on YT. 🤗 I'm glad to hear about more future livestreams, bummed I missed this latest one but pffft, I live in a Baba Yaga house in the forest (sans chicken feet) and thus my internet reception can be fubar, which is why the chicken feet would actually come in handy for the house as I'd be able to trundle around the countryside looking for better internet reception...

I'd seen this, but hadn't yet had a chance to thank you for it! The thought of having this distraction -- being able to see a friendly face and hear a friendly voice on the holiday -- is very heartening. It's so very thoughtful of you to plan for it! ...I just hope you'll chill out on yourself, hey? xP I should think that even your most devoted of fans who would call you 'Santa Jesus', care about you enough to understand that you have needs and wants and obligations and a life of your own; and that you making smart choices and engaging in plenty of self care is the best way to make sure that you get to stay happy and healthy in both life and craft -- to the incidental delight of us who get to enjoy the creations you share. (~‾▿‾)~ ✨💯 〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜 Anyways. 🤗🤗🤗 Sounds like you've got a ton of cool stuff ahead! I'm excited to see what you come up with! n_n Hope your fortunes brighten soon, and that your daemons get jumped by a veritable tidal wave of tiny, merciless fairy gang members. DD: <3

Btw- yours Lucius Malfoy is in app Messenger as GIFs. Nice 😊

Thank you for your work, Devyn. Be well, hope to see you on the livestream.

Take care of you....sending cuddles your way!

Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness. Please take care of you. Ps, I love the lipstick your wearing in the new clip on Insta with your Mad Eye Moody getup.

Thank you, Jim! Please take good care of yourself too

Just make sure you're taking care of yourself! We'll be here, regardless :)

¡Animo!, tu puedes, cuídate y a tu familia...ABRAZOS

Awww, you are too precious for this world, you give and give and all you ask in return is honesty and kindness, you got it son! You do what ever you need to do to be great and don't fret none, we know the good stuff is coming, I've still got a lot of videos to go through to keep me entertained and sleeping soundly, all thanks to you <3 Santa Jesus??! You humans are awesome! hahahaaahaaaa! You guys make my day, sakes, Keep on keeping on and stay frosty out there! You've to a lot of back up, sending the love! Major thumbs up to you!

Please take some time to care for yourself this holiday season! It’s super rough and may you vanquish your demons surrounded with love, with dark humor and a few beers. This is Christmas is going to be a rough one - my partner and I are quarantined separately as we both work with covid patients daily - can’t see family or friends, patients all around me are dying shockingly fast and there’s very little I can do to stay sane. Fired up your old Christmas gift video last night and it was a bright spot that will def keep me going. Much love and thank you for all you do 🤘🤘

Thank you for this update. I wish that things will get better for You and Your Wife. Please remember that whenever you decide to take a break from social media you don’t need to apologize. We'll understand. I take this opportunity to thank you for being such an awesome person. This year is a very difficult time for everybody, and for me, it's especially challenging on the emotional level, since I've done a lot of changes in my life, dealing with my own, personal demons. But every week I wait for your new videos. They’re one of the main reasons I manage to get up every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Thinking of what new crazy and funny stuff you came up with, really keeps me going. Please take care of Yourself and Your Loved Ones - that's the basis. Much love and hugs 💛💛💛

Thank you for the update Jim. I will echo others on here in saying that you need to take of yourself too, and if you need to take a step back or a break, we all support you. I hope things get better for you soon. Thanks for all the great content ❤

I have been struggling this holiday season too - my first one alone in some time. I can't speak for everyone, but pretty sure everyone here entirely supports you and your decisions regarding your content and engagement with us. I for one am just so appreciative I found your channel and love all the creativity and care you put into your content. Thank you for all you do for us and just being you. Take care of yourself.

Thanks for the update! I'm very curious which "version" of Griffith we'll get to see... I'm looking forward to it. And you know we love your content, but please make sure to take care of yourself! :)

Jim, thank you for the update. And thank you for always thinking of us even with your busy schedule. Everything you have planned for us sounds wonderful and I’m looking forward to all of it, but we all want you to take care of yourself and not feel pressured in any way. I pray whatever you are dealing with clears up very fast. Your Jim fans are very loyal and we care about you very much. ❤️❤️❤️

Please please please take it easy. You've set a hell of an ambitious upload schedule during a minor apocalypse... add in normal life stress and dang. We'd all be here to support you if you took some time off either to rest or focus on the day job. Since you probably won't take that advice, at least get plenty of sleep and drink water. :)

Please take a break anytime, randomly, with or without notice lovely one! We don’t want you to burn out or feel crummy! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Sooo excited!! ❤️🤩💯

First of all and most importantly, please take care of yourself. Secondly, never worry about not constantly being on social media. Those that matter, they don't mind. We're all getting through this mess, and will eventually come out on the other side of it. In the meantime, we all do the best we can.

another here to say thank you, and to ask that you try not to take on or force too much. you taking care of yourself is what we most want to see.

Thank you so much Jim, without you my nights would be lonely and wollowing into my own sadness and insomnia. Please don't burn out yourself too much just for us you are human too (I think) haha only joking.

Thank you Jim! Take care of yourself and I hope things improve for you and your partner in the new year.

Thanks for the update, Jim. Please take care.

Thank you so much for this Jim, even thought I don't really know you both, I do wish both you and your partner all the love and care in the world, deserve it. 💜

AwN

I'm sorry that hardships are piling on all at once. 😞 Wishing good things for you and your partner. On the channel front, all of the announcements sound great! Looking forward to everything!

Thank you for the update, Jim. I'm so sorry to hear you are going through a rough time. I hope things work out for you and your partner. Take your time and do whatever you need to do. We all love you and will always be here for you. With permission, sending a big old short-person hug your way. (The kind of squeeze that squishes your tummy instead of your shoulders. LOL) Looking forward to the live stream. Thanks for sharing with us🤗.

This will be my very first Christmas living alone. Without my dog, whom passed in Feb. So it will be incredibly appreciated to spend it with you!!! My first livestream as well!! I'm so grateful for finding your channel, I don't have any friends so I'm again beyond grateful for your presence in my life. 🖤 I'm glad that your able to take time from life to focus on yourself. Thank you for taking care of yourself. 🖤🖤 cannot wait for Christmas 🖤 --thank you, Amanda

Thanks for the update, Jim. I hope you're doing okay. Take whatever time and breaks you need, you don't owe any of us anything. Rest and have fun! With compassion from Canada

Jaye (or Gigi)

You are an absolute peach, Jim! Really excited about all the channel news, but I'm said to hear about your personal woes. Thank you for being so open with us. It means the absolute world to have someone so kind on the internet, especially in an increasingly lonely world.

Tiffany

Take all the time you need Jim for you and your loved one. No need to apologize for needing alone time. We've all been there. It's important that you take good care of you and yours and we will always be here for you no matter what! Thank you from my heart for all you do, Jim. You're greatly appreciated and you're an amazing person inside and out. We are all so lucky to have you with us! *Giving you hugs with permission* *HUGS YOU TIGHT*

Despite it being such a glum environment for all right now, I'm so glad you have some wonderful projects dear to your heart that are in the works. We're all here for you and sending you extra love and support. 💙💙💙💙💙

Thank you for this update Jim. I am super grateful and admire you for taking the time to stay in touch with your community. We're here to support you and nobody will be mad if you slow down a little and take care of yourself and your dear ones. Have all the virtual hugs, if you want them, and all the best to you ❤️

No apologies are needed. Take care of you and your family ❤

Tiffany

Lilantha, keeping you and your husband in my thoughts and prayers. My sister went through cancer to but she beat it and is now cancer free. There is hope just try to stay strong because I know it's very hard! Thought and prayers are with you, and I am so sorry you and your husband are going through this. *hugs*

Hi Jim, I'm sorry to hear about your partner's work. I hope things are able to turn around for you guys. The questions in ajax are there for you whenever. Don't worry about it. The update is appreciated. You have been more than generous with your videos and online presence. You spoil us, Jim! And now you're doing another Xmas livestream, very kind of you! Your new videos are sound so cool. Looking forward to them! Take care 🤗

If it's permissible, please accept some Mom hugs. 🤗🤗

No need to apologize, it has been of strange year for everybody and you need to take care of you and your partner in this particularly tough time. I wanted to say a very very big thank you for your work. Your videos have helped me so much more that you can imagine. My husband is currently on chemo and I am trying to stay strong for him because he is staying super strong and I can’t let him down. So when I feel like I am loosing it, I watch your videos, specially Dr Roberts, I love him ! When I want to disconnect a little bit from reality, I watch your videos, the Matt and Dimi ones, or the Die Society ones (can’t wait to see what happens next...). When I want to laugh, I watch your videos, because there is always a good joke or good quote. For all this, I want to say thank you for taking care of all of us. And if now you need to take time for yourself, do it. We will wait for you and always be there for you ! Lots of love from France !

Aww Jim, your timing is perfect and just know how much this is needed as this is the first holiday season without my Mom. I’m really looking forward to your Livestream on Christmas Day and I will make time to join in. Hugs to your partner for what they are going through. And hugs, cuddles and love to you always for all you do and for the person you are. I hope everything negative you’re dealing with passes soon. We are here for each other. Xoxo 🖤🤗 P.S. I’m looking forward to all your future projects. I still have so much to catch up on! So glad I found ya. *Love* 😘

Jim, thank you for this update and for your generous heart. Hang in there. 💜

Please make sure you're taking your own advice and looking after yourself. If you've returned to work and are still keeping up with the grueling schedule you've put in place for your channel, I don't see when you have time to sleep. I love your videos but I think I speak for all of us when I say that it's completely ok to ease up on the amount of videos you're putting out every week. I honestly don't see how you're keeping up. I am definitely looking forward to an xmas day livestream though! What an awesome holiday gift from you to us! Love from Kentucky! 😘😘😘

Thanks for trusting us enough to open up about what you're going through Jim. Take all the time and space you need. You are a beautiful human being and we'll support you through thick and thin. Please forgive my pretentiousness but I'm going to share my favorite Rilke quote because it has helped me greatly in the past: Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final. Also, what you have planned for us all seem wonderful 😊🖤

Take all the time you need, it's always though to fight one's demons and they older they are the nastier they are. You don't have to apologize for anything, your well-being and your (mental) health always comes first. Sending you positive vibes, hugs and an iron frying pan to "pat" the hell out of those demons! 💚💙

Nanci Ives

Just take care of you. The break in Die Society is just fine, would prefer not to be left tied up and gagged again though. 😁

Jim, don't apologize for taking time for yourself and take as much as you need. You need to take care of you and I daresay we all understand that and support it. Frankly, the world is fucking shit and it's hard to deal. And you deserve to take time for you and your family, take a break and take the pressure off of your back. Sending you (with permission) lots of virtual hugs and encouraging vibes. Things are tough, but you're not alone. Stay safe 🖤

keep watching your superior video😉

Mika

Appreciate the update Jim, & we all completely understand. Like you said everyone is going through it this time of year (and the whole year honestly). Very excited to hear about the new projects/videos you're working on. And I like the idea of the Die Society being broken up into seasons! It gives you room to take a creative break from it, & gives us viewers something to look forward to. 😃 P.S. No pressure, but crossing my fingers & hoping for a sequel to that positive affirmations & light triggers video you posted in July. 🤞 Its so unique in the way you did the light triggers & gives me crazy tingles. 😍

Sorry to hear about your wife's work issues. Hope you both are hanging in there and taking care of yourselves as best you can. :hugs and heart to you and yours:

So many wonderful things to look forward to. Griffith?? I’m so excited. Thank you SO MUCH for all of it, Jim. For your generosity, for spending time with us, AND for taking care of yourself too. All the best to you and your partner. ❤️

I don't think you had to apologize for taking care of yourself and your family.The fact that you are still making amazing stuff for us in such chaotic times is already a gift.Take care and thank you again for being so kind

The update is appreciated and very exciting. Thank you. Cuddles to you in return (if that's not too much) for all that's going on right now. Please take it easy yourself. 💜

Thank you for the update and for all you continue to share with us so generously. I’m so sorry about your partner’s work, that must be incredibly stressful. As for Die Society, I am actually SO EXCITED to hear it will continue beyond the next two episodes. I never dreamed we’d get more than the 11 or 12 you mentioned, and a wait is no hardship at all if it means we get to see the work you intended to create, in the end.

💙 You have nothing to apologise for....look after yourself and your loved ones 💙 also vaccination has started in the UK TODAY so there's hope...as You always give us...we simply love you 🤗 stay safe 💙 sending the biggest hugs to you if you like them 🤗

Jim!!! What a generous thing for you to spend part of your Christmas with us, unfortunately so many of us can’t be with our family this year. I hate to hear you’re going through things.... but remember, we are here for you just like you are always there for us❤️ I can’t wait for all the new projects and all the familiar characters that will come back! Thank you for helping us through all this ,and thank you for creating the Palace where we have made so many wonderful friends and family to be honest. Take a breath❤️☀️☀️☀️
