Shu on internet safety, assumptions, goals and more!
πŸ”—: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-neemAni9Y
3:07:36
(context: Shu talks about means of communication with other livers)
πŸ‘Ÿ: you know we have other means of communication apart from public Twitter
you never know what goes on behind the scenes
πŸ’¬: damn ok, secrets
πŸ‘Ÿ: obviously there are stuff we can't talk (about)
but like apart from that, sometimes we see Twitter and chat and be like "oh lmao they're so wrong"
there's nothing bad about it
πŸ’¬: monka
πŸ‘Ÿ: (laughs) it's interesting to see the guesses though!
πŸ’¬: what do you do when they're so right
πŸ‘Ÿ: I'll just be like, oh they're right
πŸ’¬: you're looking through the replies?
πŸ‘Ÿ: well, once in a while you see me reply to those, right? Or like quote retweet them?
I don't, like, ignore it
and sometimes it just pops up in my For you page
(laughs) why are you monka-ing? It's a public platform, I'll see it sometimes.
πŸ’¬: Yeah, but all the replies?
πŸ‘Ÿ: What do you mean, why does it matter tho?
Like at that moment, there's a chance that I see your reply regardless.
But that percentage is like, it depends but like
If anything, you shouldn't be worried if I perceive you, but what the others perceive you.
IMO, on the internet. This is just general internet safety.
Tumblr media
3:10:30
πŸ‘Ÿ: I think you shouldn't assume.
If you're public, it's like the same thing as like putting a billboard up of your tweet. And everyone drives by.
πŸ’¬: thank god I don't use Twitter then lmao
πŸ‘Ÿ: I mean, chat too. Sometimes some people post stuff and I'm just like "oop, not reading that!" (laughs)
But yeah in general,
if you post stuff that's like, against the rules, you could pretty much guarantee that I'm not gonna read it. Out loud, or react to it.
…
yeah, there's a reason why I don't use TTS
πŸ’¬: pls dont do this to us
πŸ‘Ÿ: well, it's just general internet safety
if anything, I'm making sure y'all are aware, yknow?
(Shu explains what TTS is, which is mainly used by Twitch streamers)
3:12:38
πŸ’¬: you make us afraid of the internet
πŸ‘Ÿ: Well, it shouldn't be like 'afraid'
its just that, make sure you're safe, yknow
(Shu talks about how some smart devices for homes can be a way for other people to hack into their system)
3:13:43
πŸ‘Ÿ: If I'm being kinda honest, there's other things that are probably more security-flawed with your security that you should be more concerned about
Just saying.
(Shu goes on to talk about passwords)
3:30:46
(context: Chat asked whether Shu has any goals he wants to accomplish by the end of the year)
πŸ’¬: do your debut goals first maybe?
πŸ‘Ÿ: you know, the thing about that is
when you debut, right? You put goals of things that you want to do. And it's cool to be able to do some of those goals
But also it's sort of sometimes out of your control if you could do some of these goals, yknow?
Tumblr media
πŸ‘Ÿ: And I only really had goals on there because I think everybody else had goals.
You know sometimes when you have a goal,
like let's say you're about to bungee jump and then you stand on the bungee jumping board and then you think its a bad idea and then you just dont do it?
Or like, you change your goal from bungee jumping to skydiving instead because you think that's cooler?
I mean, I can't get into details obviously
But I think the goals, sometimes, it's good to have them just so they're like, there
But things change, people change, and all that stuff.
πŸ’¬: but have you tried hard enough?
πŸ‘Ÿ: That's the thing
People think that some people are lazy when things are just out of their control sometimes
and people get criticized that they're not doing enough work when they don't understand the full picture
Just something to think about.
Tumblr media
πŸ’¬: who, imma slap them
πŸ‘Ÿ: Well, no it's not like a bad entity if anything
it's just the fact that
wherever you go, right? You expect some things come unexpected and that's just life.
But then, unless you really know what's going on, all you could do is assume.
And then, some people tend to assume
that they're not doing enough work, they're not trying hard enough, they're not diligent enough
and they're lazy, yknow?
And sometimes it's not even they're fault that things happen or they're not able to do some things.
3:35:19
πŸ‘Ÿ: I heard this from a YT short recently actually,
"Laziness is just a really bad word to disregard everything that a person is going through. There's no such thing as true laziness unless you fully understand the person's circumstance."
πŸ’¬: Too real
πŸ‘Ÿ: Yea, it is real
That's what I'm saying
But it would be cool to do some things yknow?
Some things I wanna do
There's a lot of opportunities too
It's just (that) some stuff are more plausible than others.
Some stuff, its like I'm more willing to do given the circumstances than others
Tumblr media
πŸ‘Ÿ: Or my priorities changed, what I want to do changes, yknow?
My initial goals for doing such things is not always the thing that you want to do, continue doing later down the line, yknow?
All that stuff
Kinda deep (laughs)
And that was sort of why
the other time I was talking about like
what you expect from a streamer when they first start off
and then how they realize what they initially wanted to do isn't really truly the thing that they enjoy
and they change their streaming style later
but then, to the general public, there's a lot of people who assume that a certain streamer does these kind of things
and then they don't do it anymore
then people are like, "no, why aren't you doing this anymore?"
All that stuff
And then people assume. Like I said earlier, people assume these days. And they're so wrong and it's like "lmao you're wrong"
(laughs) people say stuff.
Some people are more vocal about the stuff they do behind the scenes
Others are less vocal, others prefer to speak, complain.
All that kind of stuff
But yknow, it's the internet.
And to be safe on the internet, I do want to let you all know
Stuff we post, stuff anyone posts, stuff you post- take it with a grain of salt.
(proceeds to talk about Luca's bubble butt, then Doppio's viewers drop in ww)

Cnovels I've Read
I'm in the mood for making a list and @danmeiljie's danmei list has inspired me, so ~enjoy~ if you care. I'm classifying "cnovels" in the broad literal sense of novels written in Chinese by Chinese authors, so this is not limited to just webnovels.
Tumblr media
β˜…s are my personal rating, ❀ denote favourites. I'm aware that there's zero consistency in this list between use of Chinese vs English titles, I'm just going by what I usually refer to them as.
Finished
