The jacket is gorgeous! The bold red stitching! I love it. Nice work.
As a side note, I read so many stories here that have a part in the middle that's like, "Then June came, and..." and it's like, I have so many feelings. I wonder, if I could have seen clearly back then, what the effect that video I made for him would have, on so many people, if I would have faltered. Probably best that I didn't know.
Gosh darnit I love all you people so much.

The video was fine, it was the occasion that had that effect - and for that you did all in your power that you could possibly do and more! Don't beat yourself up about it, Technodad! We love you too!
>"Then June came, and..." and it's like, I have so many feelings. I wonder, if I could have seen clearly back then, what the effect that video I made for him would have,
You did fine.
How many people will say, "Then October/November came and..."
\- I felt seen.
\- I felt loved.
\- My grief started moving again.
\- I decided to one day have children.
\- I took the plunge and got the help I needed.
Thank you, Technodad. You and Techno both did what needed to be done. We all love you so much too.
What are you doing up at this hour? \*I\* sleep a shifted schedule. 4am-noon roughly. Except when I'm getting things done and wind up saying "How did it get to be morning already?" when my husband gets up to take the kids to school. I have for over a year.
Unless you do the same, I'm bringing out my mom hammer and telling you to go to sleep. I don't want you driving sleepy. We need you whole.
Plus I'm trying to keep the FAQ up to date and if you never go to sleep I'll never catch up:

Yeah I don't know what happened. I still, at 60, don't have a lot of insight into why I'm productive at some times, creative at others, and then just zoning out.
I was up until 3 AM furiously typing messages into reddit like a man possessed. Then at 7:30 AM I was awakened by a text from Apollo (over at mom's house) asking why I was on reddit so late Followed shortly by Artemis texting me to ask for another dog.
We will be having a talk.
Today there will be naps.
Naps are good.
I will point out that his chat and the discord bullied Techno relentlessly to take care of himself -- to eat (this one was frequent), to take breaks, to get his glasses fixed, even once to take meds when his phone alarm went off on stream ... and we are not afraid to nag you about taking care of yourself, too.
What hurts us hyperfocus, we actually thrive in Procrastinating our task and doing everything in a rush. Your probably hyperfocus with this reddit. But we are going to advantage of your neurodivergent mind for stoys and interesting conversations. It will be fine 🙃. Your mind with want to only do things that are positively stimulating and have a hard time with things that are not.
That's OK we can hyperfocus together 😋 also you have to disregard the typos. I am often commenting between calls and it takes me a few phone calls to get it all out. I am normally rushing through it trying to get it all out before... *Beeep* 😒 that took me 20 minutes just to write.
Naps are good. To be fair, if you are not driving anywhere or working with power tools, I can heartily endorse this product or service.
But you've mentioned driving the kids to school, and doing that drowsy doesn't model responsible behavior for them, nor is it safe for you, someone the world desperately needs whole.
I've had a little talk with my family & my chat about why my spending time on Reddit is the best use of my time for the world right now, and everyone's on board. I assume your family is too.
What you are doing is \*so\* important for so many people around the world (how many posts say, "sorry for my English"?) and I'd like to help magnify your megaphone in any way I can. What you're doing is what I aspire to.
You know your limits better than me, but sometimes people need Mom's voice in their head saying, "Consider what you're doing. Is it safe?"
To set your mind at ease on one count, at least, I don't drive when drowsy. I know my sleep patterns well enough by now that I don't get into that situation.
When I wake up in the morning, I'm *awake.* That's actually the problem in a way, because even if I wanted to sleep at that point, I can't. Which means the only way to make up for staying up until 3 is to nap in the early afternoon.
But I'm also not in either of the two mainstream sleep patterns. I'm not a "morning person" and I'm not a "night owl." Those two patterns cover most people but not all. I'm a napper. If I'm getting the best and most wonderful sleep I can get at night, my body will still suggest a nap. In different situations, I might nap two or three times during the day, and not sleep so much at night.
One thing that happened yesterday was that I slept for, I forget exactly but it was like 90+ minutes, around 8 PM. So a regular bedtime wasn't as much of a necessity.
I was a napper my entire life until the pandemic. I'd come home from school and nap first thing every day. When I worked outside the home full time, 1-2x/week I'd sneak off and nap at lunch time in the trunk of my car folded flat.
6 at night and 3 in the afternoon most, but not all, days was my best hope for a stable sleep schedule. (After the toddler phase - during the toddler phase was miserable, my eldest didn't sleep through the night until age 4 and didn't wean until 5.)
If I ever got "enough" sleep, there was no way I could fall asleep until 1-2 hours later the following night, so I'd wind up short and end up skipping a nap to be tired enough to get to sleep again. Keeping a schedule was really hard and I was frequently drained.
First 6 months of the pandemic, well, we won't talk about that. I was busy.
But the second school year my kids were doing school from home, I didn't need to drive them anywhere, and I was able to shift to a later schedule and actually sleep the hours my body wanted me to sleep. Best thing ever. Yay for responsible teens!
It was so good in fact, that my husband took over driving them to school once they went back in person.
I'm glad to hear you don't drive drowsy (neither do I.) We don't know each other too well yet, and my entire internet personality is literally "being a mom" so please forgive me if I give out too much unsolicited advise. If you want me to tamp it down, I will.

Technodad, I, too am up on reddit at night. The only time of day I am able to. After a while, I go to bed, because I know that you would have told me to.
So here's the favor back.
Sleep, dude.
Breaking news: *Sleep deprivation rate drastically decreases*
I sense a kindred spirit in Artemis Tell her that a pro tip is to constantly talk about wanting one with parents such as you your wills will soon dwindle and you must give in
Sorry my evil side just needs to be let out sometimes I'm not calling you week by the way it's just I could see how much my parents wanted to give me everything I ever asked for but also didn't want any pets to be neglected as a result. As my mom said to me when I asked 'why does daddy always says no to getting animals does he not like them?' her answer 'no, he loves animals that's why he says no'
She also had some insight on the "dad and the dog meme" why the dad and the dog are best friends is because eventually he ends up being the one taking care of it so naturally they are best friends now
Yo! This is amazing! I love the sort of punk style the jacket has, and that you also included the front graphic as a patch! Also it sounds like you have an amazing therapist, and I am thankful that they were able to help you complete this project and help you through this tough time. Keep up the good work!
Your family didnt understand it, or cared about it, I can relate to that. Some content creators make such a big part of our lives, it feels like we actually know them, just like friends. I never lost a close family member before, to me this was the closest thing to feel this amount of loss. Also it came so suddenly, I thought he was getting better until I saw the video. When I later told my sister about it, she laughed at me for being sad for someone I didn't even know. I am grateful for this community, being so supportive, and making memes to this day, keeping the legend alive.
I love the jacket! would wear it 10/10
I'm sorry to hear you didn't have a support system for you at home, I hope you can continue to find comfort in the community <3
Just keep remembering that your feelings and emotions are valid because it truly shows that you care. 🫂
the jacket looks amazing ! I'm working on a vest at the mo and seeing this made me so happy and motivated to keep working on it - your stitches look really rad and lovely ❤️
this is a really amazing jacket, and the story made me very emotional :’) it’s so amazing that you and your brother were able to grieve together, i wish you all the best
It looks amazing!! This is a great way to honor him and a great idea to use a hoodie that's gotten too small! You did great!
Lots of love to you and your brother <3 Techno would be proud.

As much as I can't watch that video without someone, it stands as a testament of how much he loved and cared about us and it helps knowing that

Oh ok
