I just pushed your merch for ya, D. I'll take 75% of the gross revenue, thank you.

Hi, Captain! Two things:

  1. who's that Alan guy who gave your presentation in your place at QED? He looks a lot like a more awkward and more pink-skinned version of you. Is he an awkward person generally or was that just a bit of stage fright? And if yes, is his awkwardness part of the reason why the show is hosted by a chrome-faced hero?

  2. I see that you're a Patreon supporter of RedLetterMedia. I think they have quite a bit in common with you, aside from the snark: you're both independent creators who have found a niche audience who admires and shares your passion. Some people (like me) see this kind of content as the future of entertainment, just because the traditional gatekeepers (TV, mostly) can't keep up with the demands of its audience. Do you feel the same way? In other words, do you think that independent online content is "the future", so to speak? And related to that: does the way you see your position in "the grand scheme of things" of entertainment affect your creative decision-making process?

I love Captain D so I'll shamelessly plug his DVD, which includes all of his early videos, some in 480p and a couple (I think?) in glorious HD.

So, given your comments, I have to ask --- and I mean this completely seriously, without an iota of sarcasm: do you expect your profession to be immune to criticism? Why would you respond in such a harsh manner to an investigative journalist who is trying to look into and hopefully start a broader discussion about what some could consider to be shady practices by people in your field --- in other words, someone who is trying to improve the ethical standing of people in your area of activity?

If the news media (which comprises people who haven't gone to medical school) are not allowed to criticize the harmful practices of your colleagues, then shouldn't they be barred from criticizing anyone whose job is unfamiliar to them, like politicians, musicians, or academics? If yes, then what is the role of the news media in democratic society? If no, then why should only medical doctors be immune? On what basis should your profession be treated differently?

You said on Facebook to ask yes or no questions. So here's one:

Will you marry me (I'm a Japanese sex doll with a big tentacle for a penis)?
