the one true pairing

jackyboy11 and I were discussing how the community has been, and how Jack mentioned in his video that he feels that community is the most important thing.  Also, Jack mentioned in his most recent video that he doesn’t want to prioritize anyone over anyone else.

SO WE’RE GONNA DO A THING TODAY TOGETHER!!!!  ARE YOU WITH ME?????

OKAY so what we’re going to do is have a community day today!!!!  We’re going to use the hashtag “#Jacksepticeye Family”, and I want EVERYONE to make a post about their FAVORITE PART OF THE COMMUNITY.  Not your favorite thing about Jack, though those can be included.  The primary focus though is to mention something you love about the COMMUNITY ITSELF. :D

You can:

• Talk about a fan artist you love (DON’T REPOST THEIR ART THOUGH; JUST LINK TO IT :D)
  
• Mention a fanfiction writer you love
• Just a generalized comment you love about the community as a whole
• Give a shoutout to a friend you think doesn’t get enough credit in the community
• Just talk about your friends you’ve made in the community in general!
• Name one of the little “things” we’ve done that you’ve enjoyed (SocksForJack, the Llama Prank, etc.)
• Talk about a good convention experience with fellow fans
• ANYTHING ABOUT THIS COMMUNITY YOU LOVE!!!!!

Anything and everything is welcome, and I will be reblogging AS MANY THINGS IN THE TAG THAT I CAN!!!!! :DDD

Let’s celebrate community today guys!!!!  Let’s show each other what family really means!!!!!

“I can do a pretty good Jacksepticeye impression”

I dunno Jack … kinda sounds like you’re forcing the accent. :P  I hear Mark can do a great Jacksepticeye impression though!!!

MY favorite thing about the Jacksepticeye family is that everyone here is willing to work together, to unite as one community for a good cause. :D  so many communities are scattered, but when we set our minds to do something, it happens!!!!  Everyone is so supportive and accepting of other people’s ideas!!!!  That, and the humor of this community are my favorite things!!!!  You all never fail to make me laugh!!!! :D

I love this family!!!!

I just wanna say that this is the best community and I am so proud of everyone keeping the tag positive and supporting each other and I truly do see you all as family right now and I just love you so so so much <3  Jack’s content is so energetic and optimistic, and then you guys just add to the fun by being amazing. :) Pat yourselves on the back, and GET OVER HERE AND HUG ME DAMMNIT!!!!!!  *aggressively hugs ALL OF YOU* *except those of you who don’t like being touched* *to you guys I make aggressive “i love you” eye contact*

Hello. It is one week until Unus Annus ends, and I’m coming back from a long hiatus to talk about grief.

I assume there are many people who think that grieving for a youtube channel is silly, stupid, and even unhealthy.

I am here to tell you that, in fact, it is none of these things. Grieving is appropriate anytime you lose something precious to you, be it a close friend who has died or even losing a family heirloom that was important to you.

If Unus Annus was important to you, it is time to grieve.

You can expect to go through all the five stages of grief. This will be different for everyone at different times. But experiencing Denial, Anger, Bargaining, and Depression are all normal. Some of you will experience one after another in quick succession, for some it’ll last days or weeks or even months, and for some they’ll only experience a few of these stages. The goal of grief, as always, is to get to Acceptance.

Denial may be presented as thinking that Mark and Ethan aren’t actually going to delete the channel. Maybe they’ll change their minds. This is a normal part of grief, but it is important to not fight what is happening, and accept that the end truly is the end, and we knew it was coming. Memento Mori.

Anger is a strange one, and one that honestly I am experiencing right now. I am feeling angry that I got so attached, angry that Mark and Ethan have chosen to delete everything. Now, anger is a HEALTHY and NORMAL thing to feel, but the MOST IMPORTANT THING is that you do not lash out or behave unkindly to anyone, including the Unus Annus team. Anger is normal, but learn to feel it and manage it and cope with it, and don’t take it out on others. Maybe write about your anger, or express it calmly to a friend. Maybe scream into a pillow! Either way, anger is a perfectly healthy and normal part of the grief process, and don’t guilt yourself for feeling things, just make sure you’re managing it in a way that doesn’t hurt anyone.

Bargaining may be shown as trying to ask Ethan and Mark not to delete Unus Annus, or even making deals with a higher power to step in and change the course of things. Of course, like with denial, acceptance is key here. Unus Annus will be deleted, and it will be a loss that we all feel. Allow yourself to feel this loss, and allow it to feel awful. Nothing we can do will change the deletion of the channel, but we can be sure to have our memories left over.

Depression is one most people are familiar with. It’s the incredible and intense sadness that we feel when we lose something or someone. It may present as a loss of interest in activities, crying, feeling numb or empty. All of this is normal, but be sure to reach out to a friend, family member, or therapist if needed. This is a difficult stage to handle alone, and luckily we all have each other in this time. Allow yourself to feel sad, allow yourself to cry, but don’t give up hope. This feeling will pass with time, and we’ll be left with happy memories.

Lastly, Acceptance. This is where we all want to be, and it’ll take a different amount of time for each of us to get here. I am slow about grief, and I will probably be grieving over Unus Annus for months, if I know myself and how I process things. Some of you will be fine in a few days, some a few weeks, maybe for some it’ll be even longer. But the goal is always to reach acceptance. We can accept that this was a loss that we felt to varying degrees of intensity, and we will all miss Unus Annus. But life will go on, we can move forward, we can survive. We will be okay.

Moving on is hard. Grief is hard. But this year has taught us all something, taught us about ourselves, about each other, about the world around us. Take these lessons with you, and grow beyond them. Pursue your happiness, create new goals, complete new projects. Use your time wisely, because we all know that like Unus Annus, our lives will come to an end as well. Make the most of what you have, in the spirit of what Unus Annus was about. Create. Grow. Change. You have the power to do all these things, grasp it before it’s too late.

Memento Mori.
Unus Annus.
