I did not expect to be the first one to bring it up. People are being very clinical here.


To be fair to people here, we're discussing a new message by a person who is widely perceived to be running some type of scam. I hadn't considered the more serious subtext of this message but given the history here you have to consider that that might have been intentional to try to engender sympathy.


Yeah, but it still sounds like a legitimate suicide note and some semblance of worry makes sense.. I understand the desire fore fairness, but this was just posted without much followup context. Have a bit of heart for a second.

If this whole story is the a result of a mental health issue, well - mental health is a serious mother fucker.


> it still sounds like a legitimate suicide note

The internet loves to shoot first and ask questions later, but there's some things we need to be a little more compassionate about. I understand it's in his MO to pull a trick like this, but let's at least see that he's ok before treating it as such.
