#2The author of the video is simply reading from a script, as visible by his distracting eye movements.
Why not just publish a blog post so we can skim through it at higher speed?
Is it for the Youtube ad revenue?

I doubt Garry needs the ad revenue (and in the description, he says he's donating 100% to charity). Did you consider that perhaps many people prefer watching a video to reading a blog post?

I'm not sure about many people, but why not publish both? I'm not going to watch it, because I'm listening to a podcast now, but I might read it...

Why not just write hateful or awful instead of odious?
I'm always curious why people choose uncommon words, particularly when writing online where the audience is diverse.

#7I believe this is the fastest way to become disillusioned with your support group unless you blatantly realize your only reason for friendship is transactional inspiration and a future reference for opportunity beyond socially bonding. I have a couple of mutuals who’re following this kind of thing and at least in my point of view, the rush for ‘things’ over the bond that makes us feel complete is making them pointlessly dismissive towards others, but the problem is they don’t like the outcome of “leveling up your friends” instead of simply just making more friends and acquaintances.
Maybe being a billionaire is not for me. If anything talking to my lazier friends helps me realize just how out of tune I am with my own low level wants. I wish I could just play video games all day and feel okay about it!

Audience is diverse therefore one should only write for the lowest vocabulary?

You read blog posts at the same time you are listening to podcasts?
