This is sickening: "I’m suffering from chronic pain, and there’s no way I can afford the $1,000 or so to get the physical therapy I need to manage this, much less the $15,000-30,000 I’d need to get the real treatments to fix my body."
It's not really sickening or surprising that he's having trouble getting a job though. I mean his writing seems decent enough, but is there really much demand for video game reviewers? Let alone the fact that he has to work part time, and can't be reliably counted on to attend events or even stand in front of a camera.
It would not surprise or sicken me if a perfectly healthy video game blogger couldn't find a job. This guy's situation sucks, but society and/or the government should be helping him, not some charitable employer.
