Good afternoon
Hello Azeal!!
Was just about to go to bed, lmao.
Too much sensitive data leaked. Now China and Russia, know to send spies to infiltrate the furry community.
Hey, just want to say the continuity between this guy and the guy who volunteered with the Kurdish forces was absolutely hilarious.

I hope one day Blinxis accepts that his PTSD is valid. “I looked at screens”. You looked at bodies, dude. You marked targets to be turned into chop suey, dude. It’s okay to feel a little fucked up by that.
Right?! He may not have been there physically, but he still had to watch people die, and still had to essentially mark people for death. Its really not easy, and you're spot on, his pain and ptsd is 110% valid.
You are trained to dehumanize people. its easier to shoot a target you'd see on a range than a person. "just another objective to complete" or "Think of it like a video game" its not a good approach by any means. PTSD is PTSD I agree. I really wish there were better support systems in place to help those affected. watching or even seeing the aftermath in person is a grim reminder of our actions. Screen or not.
A family friend showed me some ISIS beheading videos and it really got me, even today I can't get those images out of my head and the worst part was he thought it was funny, I'm extremely glad my family didn't have him come over anymore.
@@thesussypupper its a good approach while your doing it.
You watched stuff that traumatise people as VFX. Your horrors weren't CGI. There's no respawn for them. Yeah sure some people saw worse, went through worse, sure. Doesn't mean your pain is invalid, it's not a competition on who's more fucked up. Their pain is valid, and it doesn't invalidate yours. Your pain is also very valid.
4:10 It strikes me that in many ways non-combat PTSD can be much harder and more complicated to deal with. There's too much day-to-day stability during a non-combatant's service to trigger any of the coping mechanisms that develop under the hardship and duress of combat deployment. There's much less cognitive compartmentalization between traumatic events and home life. The trauma seems to permeate more deeply into an individual's psyche.
At least a combatant can have the ‘it was them or me’ mentality. A non-combatant so far from the front, unfortunately, doesn’t get that luxury.
11:22 That zoom is just *chef's kiss * right as the question gets answered.
*gods all of these interveiwees always have absolutely GOLD to say.*
*”is our military full of furries? What the fuck? We are intel, you be the judge” just pared with that DEAD fuckin stare from the raccoon avatar is fucking PRICELESS*
😂
"Its for when Im feeling extra sassy, sir"
My soul has vacated my body 😂💀
Imagine having such a traumatizing story, you traumatized the doctor for traumatizing stories.
So you're telling me, that in a number of years we will have access to formerly classified memes of Linda destroying IS? I can't wait for that day.
Lol you can Google her and find a good stack of memes. I guess she made that comment in January of 2015.
me too
The sort of plushy I’d 100% buy are a yellow submarine with the stylized avatar faces of the various submariners you’ve spoken to sewn into the submarine windows.
Addendum: And maybe a hinged screen door on the sail for shits and giggles
@@Zeknif1 I 2nd this
idk why but that thumbnail made me choke on water
Just seeing "180 dead", a racoon avatar and "I did that" is just a wild ride
A lot going on in that pic
Is it dumb that i remember the people you interview by their vrchat avatar😭😭😭
Well that's basically remembering someone by their face isn't it?
Yes exactly i am terrible with names
@@Unjust_Forsetipretty much yeah
Same
No, because that's how I 'member people
This showed up on top of my CZcams twice. Hope the algorithm gives Azeal more love. He is a legend.
5:10 too real. VRChat makes it way to easy to just spill the beans but it's also really fun and relaxing. I've found myself saying stuff I would never let my therapist or family members know about, which probably isn't the best thing but VRChat has helped me to have more than a few epiphanies. Being so detached from reality as VR is it almost feels like a dream sometimes which just puts my mind in this weird state where all the walls just come down. I've never been so immersed in VR that I've punched a wall though lol.
I really enjoy Blinxis' stories. He's so down to earth and matter of fact about trauma, war, and even the little silly things that keep you sane in an insane world. I hope he gets his vet-powwow going. Thanks for the great content Azeal!
"oh its for when I feel extra sassy" im dead 😂😂
I can't wait for like 40 years in the future when the US declassifies all of the classified memes.
hey, idk if you’ll see this man (talking to the airman here), as a fellow socet user is it possible i could actually talk to you i have some questions that might sound stupid idk. but i have some trauma and i feel just ashamed for having it and makes me feel like im taking something away from real combat MOS’ that experience trauma. anyways, if it was possible to talk it would mean alot. if not i completely understand. but from one Geospatial Analyst to another I appreciate everything you do and have done.
Hey Jake, you are a human being just like all of us. Your trauma is valid, your emotions are valid and your suffering and speaking about what you have to suffer every day does not detract from anyone. Please take good care of yourself, and take care of your fellow vets. You might be the one to save a life. ❤
@@adenkyramud5005 I already saved the life of my good friend who couldn’t take the pressure of everything. thank you so much it means alot, sometimes it feels like theres no one to go to in a career where it’s high pressure and high intensity and everyone expects you to embrace the suck as easy as them
@@jaketheman9183 I'm proud of you for that. You're a hero!
💝💛🧡❤💚💙💜❤🩹👼👼♥
@42:40 A gay couple that met while dropping ordinance on the most homophobic culture in the world. 🤣
For real! I love it
It's poetry isn't it? I loved that so much.
I love these military type videos. You should bring back Spigs again!
YOU witnessed action live, your experience of this that are a DIRECT reflection of what actions YOU YOURSELF took in the moment, and those decisions DIRECTLY affected the lives of many people for good and bad. Just because you weren't there in person doesn't make what YOU saw any less impacting than any other door kicker out there bro. OWN IT, TAKE CONTROL OF THE SITUATION. Combat is ugly, and war is something thats not glorious like the movies. Seeing it for yourself changes you and your outlook on life PERNAMENTLY.
saw this one live and not going to watch it through again, here's a decent length comment to help tell the computer how much i love your content and how more people should see your interviews! they're THE BEST and so good for broadening perspectives .
Azeal the unofficial licensed Therapist need I say more
His reason for not going to PTSD group therapy is my reason for not going to NA anymore.
22:40 literally the dude from Star Wars: A New Hope who fires the Death Star on Alderan
Its 3Am for me. I have an ear infection and can't sleep. this helps me. Im not sure why. But it does. Thank you.
Cheers OP, hoping your ear infection heals soon. Facing the risk of another world war head on is restful for this grumpy old man as well. Too many of this guest’s peers age-wise volunteer led for what they cane to believe were false-premise wars, as did my peers. Restful to watch these for this old man as well. Peace be upon us all.
Oh yeah, let me get that meme clearance
Its interesting how you hear so much about military life through a person in a racoon avatar
His wife deleted his world of Warcraft account. WOW. That's heartless
Smh
42:15 reminds me of those traps the Nazi's used to kill more people. They would launch a grenade from ground and then let it explode on head height. More efficient than blowing everyone up through their meat shield of a body.
42:23 that shit sounds romantic as hell. striking targets with your SO? one of a kind date
Bro wtf 630 views? You’ve really got it hard man.

YES ANOTHER GRAND AZEAL VIDEO
perfect way to end the night 🙏 bless

Hey Az and Blinx, thanks for putting this all together. Been binging your content lately and I'm really glad there's an outlet like this, it's validating and very wholesome. I hope you're all doing well :)
🧡✨
That is one hell of a thumbnail. Instant click.
Its very interesting how the internet can be applicable to mental support. I mean, to be fair, it is an alternate reality, so its the best way for people to dissociate from themselves completely. I mean when you think about it, you usually change as a person online because your reality changed, you are no longer in the same spot. And spot can mean many different things, mentally, physically, emotionally, the things you're thinking about, the things you're feeling. Now that I'm typing this out, I'm gonna think about this for awhile.
New Azeal video!!!
To quote Michael j caboose "neat"
My favorite VR trash monster and his interview people!
Keep up the good work!
Just finished watching the video of your gf talking about her experiences with her faith and sexuality, excited to see what’s in store on this one!
I find it so funny that there are classified memes X) Humans gonna human I guess
I remember you! Thank you for the service!! I hope you get better!! Thank you for the video upload!!
no matter how much youtubes algorithm hurts your channel i really hope you always have enough supporters on like patreon on and stuff to keep doing this stuff because your videos are amazing, and they 100% make a difference in peoples lives
15:00 Leavenworth is probably what you're thinking of, but that's normally for the worst of the worst
Love your work Azeal ❤️
Looking forward to all those vets in group chat vr lol
*looks over at my C programming books*
*looks down*
this is too accurate
Wonderful video! I really hope this guy eventually gets to meet the guy in a previous video who volunteered with the YPG.
Hey as someone who was scared to go to group therapy for similar reasons, it's okay to go and just listen at first. They don't force you to talk until you're ready.
At least in my case, it was really eye opening that *literally everyone* felt like that prior to joining
So glad im getting your videos again
why do i love this mans avatar so much
I met a misslerer for a class and the class was about space, radars, sadlitees, and what is was like being in a nuclear bunker waiting for the green light.
Love your videos azeal! :]❤
Hell yeah!!! Love this dude!!
Another fantastic video
I didn't know The Rocket joined the USAF
Its so surreal to hear a cartoon raccoon talking about how he bombed ISIS
Tbh Azeal has some of the smartest and important questions, you could tell they were things blinxis was actually surprised yet happy to be asked
**drums fingers on desk**
**leans back in chair**
**lights ciggy**
**exhales**
...I like this kid. What's his name, Blongzeis?
**stabs index finger on intercom button**
Sheila! Tell upstairs the racoon kid is a hoot. Also this Azongales. Azonkaloids. Starts with an "A"...armsdealer or something like that. Yeah yeah...I know they are these cartoon internet people in the GTA5 thing, but I tells ya, the bossman will like them.
37:00 it was on the tirpitz Bizmarck's sister ship
You know how fucked up an horryfic event has to be to make your therapist (a person prepared to deao with these kind of situations) need another therapist to deal the trauma you just gave them.
Boost that algorithm! Also god damn rocket racoon
hi azeal we all love you❤
Active duty military here. Would love to be included to this Vet meetup in VRChat!
@@syntheticfuture1718 Im TreWrld on VRchat If any vets or anyone really wants to add
The most serious talk of isis intel as a raccoon that’s gonna host a Sunday barbecue for friends and family 😂
This video is helping with my mental health
It's a trip to listen to these while driving then finally see the avatars after you park at your destination 😂
bros therapist needed a therapist
I had an ex JTAC at my school as a cop I got to know him well
Comment for the algorithm :3 hope your doing well azeal
I gotta check out that world holy shit
when you see blinxis in the thumbnail you know it is going to be some good stories
Aye it's this guy again
23:13 the world's most complicated x-out button
As someone with PTSD. Group therapy absolutely changed my life and it is what I solely contribute to me becoming sober. It REALLY saddens me to hear so many people on this channel say they don't care for group therapy, or don't want it. It has changed my life. Hearing other people speak (even when drastically different) and share similar feelings when you thought you were alone is life changing. Trauams you thought were rare or horrid somehow seem less daunting in your everyday life. It wont feel good, but seek if out if you seek relief from your ptsd. I would've never got sober without it and getting sober was one of the hardest things i've done. Not some AA bs group, but one for people relatively similar to you. Therapy doesn't feel good. It's not supposed to. YOU are there to work (on yourself). Working-out doesn't feel good, so it won't doing it for your brain. It's like math but without the dopamine hit when you get a question right.
We need a full version of the outro song.
This guy's voice and racoon avatar makes me wanna give him a big hug.
I love his voice
Corruption in the military? Now where have I heard of this before? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I have seen an AC130 down in florida at a plane museum when I was on vacation week or two ago
holy shit i do that thats my job but for the army 😂😂
Thank you for your service :3
Cool if you don't mind my asking a question or two. How do you like it in the army? How's the military culture right now really?
@@long-hair-dont-care88. yeah no problem man, it’s interesting now. It’s no longer toxic too far to one side right, but now it’s becoming a little too scary to the other. think of it like how it is in the civilian world right now. very similar except with one false allegation or report (which happen pretty frequently simply because of someone not liking someone else) it could screw you over for months and have you stuck in Basic, AIT, or your unit for a long time to conduct an investigation on you. I haven’t had that issue but i know a few people throughout my time especially people in basic
💖💚💙💜
Interesting story never heard of corruption in the army also first
Lol what? Really
How haven’t you heard of it it a massive thing
Well buddy I feel ya on the ptsd. Va said I don't have it I was a 1N1 Geospatial Intel and saw some, interesting things. Still trying to fight them on it and find the best therapist for me.
Omfg the JAG goes waaaaaay over there
Today I learned there are classified memes......
I yearn for the forbidden funnies.
Don't we all
I wondered why this got recommended, likely due to Isis being mentioned right in the beginning and that attack having just happened.
11:19 yes. There are so many furries especially if you have a MOS that you need a big brain for. Just in my battery I think like one whole unit of FDC dudes are all furries.
Jesus, gross. How has the military attracted so many people like that? I'm gay and use grindr every day and there are virtually zero furries where I'm at. Never met one irl either.
i feel for blinxis, i have a few friends who are vets. some still serve while others like this guy have gone through horrible things.
one story i remember is one of my friends was given a mission to take a target no matter what. him and his unit caught up with said target and as they were chasing him down. my friend took the shot. put one in the head and one in the chest. unfortunantly a lady came out of no where and got caught up in the crossfire. she lived but he was discharged after the incident i guess as a fall guy. but that event messed him up really bad. feels extreme guilt and has never really been the same.
Commenting for algo again!!
55:47 to the people that think like this.
Munitions have a shelve life no I’m not joking.
If you decide to not waste an expensive munition on just one dude and that dude goes on to plant IEDs that kill and destroy a bunch equipment that’s a net loss.
Azeal I hope you knowhow special your channel is an you are as a person thanks
The Palmyran Empire was a prominent power in the crisis of the third century. The story of their empire is very sad in my opinion.
Based history enjoyer
Indeed
12:35 hey, didn't a C130 Operator tell that story on your channel?

The notion you can't be traumatized by real violence on a screen is preposterous.
ptsd is contagious... noted.

Brother, the source of the ptsd is not the issue. The fact is that you have ptsd, and deserve help for it. You are completely valid, I can gurantee anyone with PTSD agrees. We’re here for you bro.
