Three Years Later…
Hi Technogang,
It's been a while but to commemorate the third anniversary of "so long nerds" I wrote this little cringey sorta-poem about my feelings when sln first came out compared to my feelings now.
Just a side note: I was quite obsessed with techno back when he died, and I express that in this work. I was 13 ok?
Three years have come and gone
Three years since I picked up my phone
and cried as if a loved one died
which in a way is true;
a loved one DID die.
They did not know me.
I was merely a number,
Just another fan of millions
However I was forever changed by him.
Even if it was a one-sided friendship
He taught me
He made me laugh
His channel was there when nobody else was for me
I miss it everyday
I miss him everyday
But that may be an exaggeration now
Three years HAVE come and gone
Friendships, opportunities, and memories were made in those three years
The grief still lingers
But it would be a lie to say that it is as pungent as how it once was
It was an honor to be a loyal viewer
When he was still alive
Looking forward to every blue moon
Which a video would MAYBE come out
Only if he'd recently gotten a haircut
However, one shouldn't remain in a constant state of grief,
It is okay to stand up
Even after such a tragedy
It is okay to focus on yourself
Your friends, your family, your life
Today may be a tragic reminder
The unfortunate death of a beloved YouTuber, friend, brother, son
But let today be a celebration of life and not of death
Thank you, Alex

1095 days without Technoblade
I can't get over the fact that it's officially been 3 years since Techno passed away. This year has been a big one for him, hitting 20 mil isn't a small accomplishment, although I wish he were here to witness it. Not to mention all the merch Technodad launched earlier this month and the cameo in the Minecraft movie, our legend is getting the visibility he deserves :)
I didn't know I could miss someone that I've never met this much. having already lost a family member from cancer makes it hit even harder, I remember not being able to finish the so long nerds video when it was first uploaded. I finally managed to watch it all this year, and seeing Alex fight against his disease with such strength made me lose a fear I've developed after watching my grandpa go through cancer. I can't thank him enough for that.
I wish I could thank him for everything he's done, not only for me, but for this whole community. but I don't think I could ever put it all into words.
thank you, Technodad, for all you've done to keep his legacy on. you truly are the kind of father anyone would be lucky to have.
and most of all, thank you, Alex, for everything. you'll always be missed, but never forgotten. rest easy, king. o7

Please remember, especially today;
It is okay to be sad,
It's okay to cry,
It's okay to mourn someone you didn't personally know,
Your feelings are valid,
It doesn't matter when you discovered techno, you're still one of us.
Today is a hard day for this community, but it also shows how wonderful and amazing this community is. As someone who joined after Techno had already passed, it doesn't feel like 3 years, because it hasn't been for me. It still sucks and hurts. Don't let anyone ever tell you your feelings are "dumb" or to "stop crying" or say "It's been 3 years..." yadda yadda. Don't ever stop talking about Technoblade. Share your favorite memory with someone, anyone today, even in this group. We will all mourn in some way today, or tomorrow, or this week, month or year. Eat your steak and cheesy potato's. Wear your merch if you have some. Hug your techno plush. Watch his videos. Cry. Do what feels right for you.
Most importantly remember: TECHNOBLADE NEVER DIES.
(I want to end this with that, but I also want to share my funny story with everyone.)
I usually set a timer on my tv to turn off automatically at night when I'm falling asleep. Sometimes I forget and every single time I do, I get woken up by the tv at some point. It is always Technoblade that wakes me up. Literally. I will swear on everything it is ALWAYS technoblade. Wednesday this week was the best one yet. I woke up to someone screaming "CHRISTMAS!!" I was very confused trying to figure out what time of the year it is and why someone is yelling christmas at me nonstop and looked at the tv while it's still yelling "CHRISTMAS!". It was techno's "bedwars: Christmas update". I was awake for the next hour watching the entire thing laughing historically at him and this video.
