it's been a minute since i posted one of these so..
here’s some of colby’s tweets from 2021.
i don’t have proof that these are his tweets, but believe me, they are his.
if it’s bold and italicized, it’s someone’s tweet to him.

added bonus: if they have a * next to them, that means it’s been deleted

feel this so hard
fan: please call me sweetheart its my dream deadass

fan: @/ColbyBrock what’s your best advice to give to a teen who’s gonna turn 17 next week ? like any tips or tricks you wanna hand down bc i need help
so assuming you’re in highschool, just know that you might think your social circle means the world to you right now .. but everything can change (if you let it) after you graduate. life changes so much after graduation! focus on making good relationships and having fun :)

what do u mean by the until dawn windego posts thing??
Oh, uh. Let me see if I can think of a way to answer this concisely haha. (Until Dawn spoilers ahead fair warning, if you haven’t played)
So, like a year ago there was a post going around about stories involving Wendigos all being exploitative and, it not being okay to even use the word, and at the time I saw it in passing and thought, “Huh, I didn’t know that,” and did nothing else bc I had a lot going on. I’m kinda pissed at myself but c’est la vie. Probably the og author made a good faith mistake? There /is/ a first nation creature with a very similar title that is sacred, but I started a different writing project recently, and rememebred that thread and looked it up just out of curiosity, because it had seemed weird to me at the time. I played UD when it came out and watched the interviews, and there was a lot of making of stuff available, including interviews w Algonquin people they had contacted for Wendigo research, and it seemed that if the thing about Wendigos being bad to write stories about period was true, it was super werid that could have happened. It turns out, that is not the case. I read a whole bunch of interviews w first nation scholars talking about the Wendigo, and actually it’s kind of the opposite. It’s a very real supernatural entity culturally, extremely evil, that will possess and compel humans to terrible acts (specifically but not limited to cannibalism and violence), and to be feared.
In reality, UD did about the best job I’ve ever seeen anyway of being realistic and honoring classic tradition, at least in western media. For example, Wendigos are often portrayed in fiction as being deer-like with antlers, but in tradition, that’s super inaccurate, and they basically look like giant, emaciated human beings. The horn thing is offensive and wrong, whereas the in-game portrayal is the accurate one. In addition, when westerners first arrived and got to hearing about traditions and beleifs, such as the Wendigo, they dismissed it out of hand, and told the native people they were wrong and there was no supernatural entity or posession going on, but rather a mental illness brought on by the darkness and harshness of winter, which westerners called “Wendigo Psychosis” (super fucking great at once for mentally ill people /and/ native tradition! Really knockced it out of the park, guys : ) ). And along with the rest of its complex meta narrative on horror and expectations, especially when it /comes/ to mental illness, Until Dawn worked in “Wendigo Psychosis” pretty pointedly and came down with a very solidly “No, the first nation people were right, it /is/ supernatural and real and evil”, underlined by actually /giving/ one of the most central characters, Josh, very active and debilitating psychosis, which, completely subverting viewer expectations, is not actually a driving force for the violence and tradgedy of the game, but a red-herring.
In a sense, they put up real psychosis and let the player fall into the expected trap of assuming the ‘antagonist’ had gone insnae and was killing people because of that, then halfway through pulled a u-turn and flipped the script, and players spend the rest of the game trying to save Josh and feeling kind of fucking /terrible/ for falling into the planted expectations. In the end, the real threat is the very real and true supernatural evil (the Wendigos), and Josh is a victim everyone else in the story is partially responsible for the fate of. Anyway, it was a really cool way to work multiple metas together into a narrative, and I’ve always liked the horror meta with Josh, but I didn’t know how in-depth the supernatural side of it went too. I hope that answers your question? Basically, I saw a post that a lot of people saw (it went around a /lot/ for like 2 weeks), was too distracted and dumb to fact-check when I’m usually p diligent, and now feel le great shame of having been boo boo the fool, but am also happy to have all this very neat new meta information. : )

reallu really really good bits about this whole part:
lancelot being so fucked up over thinking hes lost his entire path in life and the only place he can think to go after fucking up so much is sorelois to find galehaut (quote “in the end, he made up his mind to go to Galehaut, who had always been so good to him...”)
lancelot spending most of his time in sorelois before he leaves just laying in galehauts bed to the point this is the thing that damns galehaut to death (really really funny this bits just so funny)
lancelot being so fucked up that he cant find galehaut that he gets a super bad bloody nose and goes fuck this and runs off into the woods with nothing but his shirt. just like for fun.
everyone in sorelois going “oh shit he killed himself” upon finding galehauts bed covered in blood (like. drenched. the vulgate says it was about a bowl full of blood.)
gawain going up to galehaut and lionel who have been searching for lancelot for a good while now and going “oh haha yea i saw him. whoops forgot to tell him that thing you pleaded with me to tell him!” and then fucking off
galehaut going home to find his bed covered in blood . very cool thanks king.
a bunch of the people of sorelois also at one point try and get galehaut to eat by saying if he dies like this hell be damned to hell </3 it doesnt work but i think thats so funny.
the vulgate then going “but enough about galehaut lets go back to lancelot” directly after galehaut dies
oh also this driving lancelot insnae so bad the lady has to come pick him up and just keeps him home for a few months and hides the fact from him cus shes like oh dear christ i cant have this fruit being a freak rn its winter and it sucks so she just sets him lose in the lake until shes like oh dear christ a prophecy is happening lancelot go back to court
