A little update
🕑 Added 2023-09-25 13:12:25 +0000 UTCHello everyone,
You may have noticed Press Any Chiodini didn't go out over the weekend (and that the episode before that was quite late). I just wanted to write a little note to 1) apologise and 2) update / reassure you.
The short version is that my brain's gone a little bit sideways over the past couple of weeks, and I've been finding it hard to focus on work or my hobbies or, well, pretty much anything. It's nothing to worry about - I'm not in an especially bad place or anything like that. In truth, I think I'm just a bit run down but I get frustrated when I miss deadlines because I feel like I'm letting you lot down.
I shall get back on Press Any Chiodini as soon as I'm able - likely tomorrow, all going well - I just wanted to let you know what's going on.
Thanks for your understanding - I look forward to goofing around on your screens again very soon.

Take care of yourself. Do all the 'give me neurotransmitters now!' things hug all the animals.

It's okay, Johnny. Taking care of oneself is like building a house. If the foundation isn't sound, the house itself won't be sound either. Take care of yourself and your family. Once you're good, come back to it. You've helped us, supported us. Let us help & support you. <3

Hate it when the brain goes sideways. Find your balance, no need to panic about it.

We are here no matter what 😊 I think we all have been helped in some way by your work. We can wait while you reset.

As much as I love your content and generally seeing your face on my screen, as much joy as that brings me, your well being absolutely trumps my entertainment. Please take the time you need to do whatever will help you most. We’ll be here when you’re ready to get back to it. I wouldn’t feel like a terribly lovely skelly pal if I was just in this for the perks. I’m on your patreon to support you, first and foremost. The perks are just that. Perks. A bonus to the primary reason I’m here.
Ethan Blomquist
I completely understand Johnny. This year has been an increasingly tough one, and I empathize with your sentiment. Take care of yourself, we'll be around when you're able to come back!

I want to Like this post to show my support, but it's currently at 69 Likes and I think that will give more enjoyment than my adding one more, so have a supportive comment instead. We care more about you than your content! 💜
Kara Dennison
On the one hand I get it. There’s something very grindy and unpleasant about trying to start after the deadline flies by. (I’m there with some stuff of my own.) On the other, you’re great at what you do and bring a lot of joy to my life and the lives of others. We’ll be here when the next episode drops and it will be wonderful. Do what you need to in the meantime.

I agree with the other comments, take the time you need, but I have a request. IF Press Any Chiodini won't be out on time, would you post a message on here or discord before it is due out? The reason for this request is I think something went sideways with my accounts or tech and I go searching to see if I missed the content. Again, this is a request, not a requirement for me supporting you.
Sean Noll
Do what you need to do to be the best you.
Jarrod Staples
I’d like to chime in with more support! You’re a conscientious creator and shouldn’t worry. Thanks for all you do!
Jenna Burry
We love you Johnny, you can take all the time you need. We'll hold down the skelly fort until you're feeling more yourself!
CrimsonShadows
Ultimately no-one here cares if the content is on time or even good. We're here because you've created a wonderful, loving, mildly cursed place to be and at the core of that is how everyone looks out for and after each other. Take all the time you need.
Peter Fisher
Just like we can never be late to your live streams, your content always arrives precisely when it is meant to...
Empo
It's just that sort of time. Don't worry about it. You're not on a deadline at all, except your own. Personally, I blame the weather not being consistent.
Cuppa Teafling
I hope you feel better soon and your brain starts being kinder to you.

What gak9319 said - we care about you and want you to do what's best for you

Johnny's content is never late, nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it needs to😁

Sending hug from me and headboops from furbabies. Self-care is vital to the survival of the rebellion.

You've gotta put being a person over being a content creator, every time
aaron kimberley
Thanks for the update it really does stop me worrying about you. Take the time you need.
Hedders
Everyone gets to have a Bad Brain Day now and then. It’s just being human.
Bill
Thanks for the update, and self care is best care.

Looking after yourself is the priority. We’ll still be here when you’re ready.
Melanie Roussel
I can emphasise with that! Just that time of the year, I guess. Take your time and look after yourself. We can wait!
Nameri Verdstela
Looking after yourself comes first, boss. You take all the time you need.
