Do you think he blocked it because we made fun of him so much?

Works fine for me.

Sawyer needs to hang out in more bath houses.

I mean, I had a handful of girlfriends and I'm married, but never actually "dated." Does he really mean his romantic life has been so barren?

Anyway, sometimes I just marvel at how many flagrant leftists are congealed around him, even though he's been so clearly aware of what they're doing, even at the level of his own deep personal pain.

He does this shit and then retweets 90% open communists.

He went on a date in high school and turned her off because he only wanted to talk about current political events she couldn't care less about, his first girlfriend was an internet relationship who was two-timing him with Richard "Lowtax" Kyanka, his second was a relationship that lasted over a decade but she never respected his career, his third was a rebound with a former QA tester who moved in way too quickly and then dumped him but still lived with him for a little while after so she could have an affordable place to stay and when he told her he was depressed she told him "No you're not, you're just sad."

A common element they seem to have is that none of them respect him. :M

Edit: Misremembered the timeline a bit, fixed.

That first rant hit me right in the feels. He is posting like a young, sligtly nerdy but insightful guy. Im baffled by his circles as well. It might be that 1)its just the company he's trapped with due to skills and interests. When you're into humanities, human relations etc. rather than technical subjects, you either roll with communists and communist-adjacent people, or you just stay quiet, because thats what it is right now. People underestimate that, unless you are very likeable and socially fluent, there are only few occasions to associate with those beyond professional, and similar, environments.

2) such conformists often feel the same way about reality as you and I, its just that they always ascribe it to socially acceptable causes. There is a mutlitude of rants and confessions on the internet where you would say "oh man, that person really hates the direction society and culture took, they express so perfectly how its harmful and degrading and so on", only to find out that the person responsible for that genuine expression ends it with a giant pledge of loyalty to everything thats going on, every vector of that change, and believes that the reason why they're having such terrible time is that the change for worse is not occuring fast enoguh.

I bet he'd be happier if he took up barn dancing and became a fishing enthusiast. He'd have no time for e-hoes, bicycles or Das Kapital, and he'd soon sell his Fiat to buy a four wheel drive so he could tow his boat around.

This would set him well on his way to recovery.

Cultured Sawyer > Sex-offender Chris.
To a cockroach someone who spends their salary on e-thots must be a real patron of the arts. Between slurping down soy lattes and watching whatever is on Netflix he retweets Le Reddit Guin quotes about how capitalism is bad while working for one of the biggest megacorps around. Since he's thirsty as fuck and single maybe you two could shack up together and jerk off one another while watching and lusting after the latest stinking coon they parade around in the media.

There's no way I'm going to dig through his insufferable simping, interactions with women so awkward they should be studying it over at CERN to see if we can use it as an infinite energy source, lusting over actresses in films he watches or his anti-gun and pro-nigger sewage to find the rest of the tweets I was going to post here earlier. This guy is a week or so from sucking off a fat guy in a skirt, getting his dick surgically removed and blowing his brains out, not necessarily all at once or in that order.

I will never respect Sawyer.

Sawyer worked on one of the most critically acclaimed games in a critically acclaimed series, lead the development on his own series, and crossed paths many times with Chris. His wiki states that he started work in the late 90's on games, and whether you like the product he put out with Pillars, it was clear that he had passion for the craft, which in comparison to how similar game devs have become to journos today, an ounce of passion still stands true, and tall.

Yet he botched it up, according to Roguey, with one of the girls he was involved with because he couldn't shut the fuck up about current events that never change (REEE we live in a society!11!1!!)

I seem to recall a tweet he made about insecurity with being a dev and talking about it to someone he was with, and he made it seem like it hampered things inherently. Despite rpgs and the things he likes being niche, I've never had a problem myself with making any of the autistic shit I'm into, seem cool to women. Sure there will be women out there one meets where they equate the medium with being a manchild cuck, but only focusing on them is forgetting about the other 1,000,000+ women who just want you to close your mouth while you eat and not splurge the things you love while looking like a slob over the table, and otherwise they're usually very happy and pleased to hear you out, and see you passionate, which makes them passionate for you, supportive, and genuine as long as you remember to ask them back the same tier of questioning.

But that's not what he does, is it? Instead of dealing with his inability to look respectable to women and reading a book or two on pickup, he goes on Twitter. Man makes more money than what most of the lower to mid-tier end of the codex makes, doing what he loves, but he's having histrionic passive aggressive meltdowns about nazis, repeating communist dogma to get noticed and rack up the dopamine notifications, associating with bottom of the barrel opportunist e-girls who even if he magically did somehow get sex with them, he would feel worse about himself after the fact because he settled for everyman's best friend for an hour. He's also a possible alcoholic, and complains about not being paid enough, despite living in what's traditionally seen as the better counties in the best states, of a first world country with the most noble intentions. Once again I repeat, doing what he and many others, would and should, love for a living.

To say this says a lot about him would be like repeating how cringe leftists are, now. But that's Josh. That's the man who had a hand and position in one of the most celebrated games of all time renown for it's writing.

Let's be honest, it's incredibly unlikely that Josh would snap out of this. He can't kick his Twitter addiction so he's feeding himself a constant supply of low energy self loathing and contempt. There's a Japanese saying that goes something like "Eat good food, talk to good people, observe good inspirations, and you will do good things." Yet the same is true on the opposite end. If you live like a degenerate who hates himself, there's a good chance we'll hate your work too, Josh. At least one of us here on the Codex is capable of greater, better things, and more deserving would be an understatement. But Josh has this unique position in the world and he chooses to behave like a codex stereotype of an autistic maladjusted socially awkward virgin with too much free time, and it should convince anyone reading this that if you ever have any inkling of success in your life, you'd better be celebrating and pounding kegs of beer together then emptying your balls in every woman who loves you in your off-time, and making damn sure you hold onto it at other points on the ticking clock.

Not buying fiats, doomscrolling, simping, and asserting that "american values" are what made you into a faggot.

Plot twist: This is Sawyer's current Codex account.

Makes you think moment: If it were Sawyer's current Codex account, this is probably the best writing he's done in his life.
Now that you mention it... At first glance it would appear he's being critical, but it really boils down to "I cannot believe a man as awesome as Sawyer, with all the amireable qualities of Sawyer, in a unique position of Sawyer, would spend his time on twitter and be single. Thats something more fit for a codex poster!" That's very... peculiar. Almost like a running gag or something.
[Edit: doesnt he love Disco Elysium too?]

Yeah that's how I read it without trying to. That part about USA brings to mind the idealized liberal view that a democrat voter would spew when drunk.
