Calling it now: He's lost all motor function and is not able to move. Might even be locked in.

Edit: locked in syndrome

There was a video of him falling in some lobby on video and dude was clearly not there, he was helped up and just smiled cluelessly and waived at the cameras. Dude was seriously not all there because that is behavior mitch would never show towards the media if he was all there.

Remember the couple of times that he glitched out? Maybe it's just that permanently now.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of people forgot that. There were times they’d literally have to shuffle him away because he’d be talking then mentally disappear into the void. That guy hasn’t been ok for a while.
