    He strikes me as one of those purely parasocial relationship streamers. People like him because he feels like a buddy aimlessly talking in your living room about video games or whatever.

      negl when I used to watch him frequently, it’s because he reminds me, dead-ass of the guy that used to play the bass in my high school doom metal band. Old homie had way better facial hair tho; dude looked like Serj Tankian cut to 5’5.

      I’ve watched quite a bit of his stuff and all I know about jim is that he’s wholesome, hot, and kind of into alien conspiracy theories because of his dad. so no I don’t think he’s particularly parasocial.
