#just another day on youtube really~

[lilithfairen]

Hm. I do adore people who watch a video that fixates on a specific person, become fixated themselves upon that specific person, then adamantly insist the video in question and the creator of said video never meant to encourage fixating on that specific person.

#hbomberguy #white dude who makes content mostly aimed at telling angry white dudes what/who to be angry at or that their angry opinions are correct #and whose fandom is most hostile and abusive towards anyone/anything he criticizes who aren't/aimed at straight white dudes #just another day on youtube really~

Pls this is so funny. (sound on)

Context: this was after Claudia did that episode of Stargate SG-1 in season 8, which I think was supposed to be a one-off, before Claudia and Ben ended up being on SG-1 together. (Cringey audience member ended up asking Claudia who's the better kisser- Ben or Michael. 😬 I spared you all of that second-hand embarrassment and cut it. ur welcome).

#ben browder #claudia black #farscape #stargate sg1 #'oh it's about Michael Shanks' kills me #michael shanks #vala mal doran #daniel jackson #cameron mitchell #why are 90% of youtube videos from panels in the early-mid 00s in 240p? #on The Locket commentary #Claudia mentions about having just worked with Michael Shanks #and how she felt like she had to tell Ben that he had another leading man #and i forgot what he said next #but she was like come on it was 2 days vs 4 years #and then she said ‘there really are some similarities between the two of you’ #and he said ‘oh don’t start with that’ and he sounded so annoyed lmao

okay i feel like im going insane and making a red string board in my head but I've watched that Ichiban and Kiryu conversation way too many times and i swear Kiryu has to be lying to seem cool or the "proposal" he's talking about isn't a standard proposal. a man with nothing to hide wouldn't have his face shift from being this smug

to being this caught off guard when he's asked to give details

that's not the look of a man who's been asked to reveal something personal that might be emberassing or uncomfortable, that's the face of a man who got caught in a lie and doesn't know how to follow up.

i know Kiryu is pulling a story out of his ass to hold up a manly persona. he's looking around trying to come up with something believable because he didn't think through his gut reaction of "I need to seem cool in front of this younger guy who (maybe) looks up to me". man's looking around the skyline as if his childhood idea of a tough, macho yakuza is gonna float down and give him a story to tell.

I can't even think of who he could be referring to unless he's exaggerating his relationship with Yumi or Kaoru? or if it has something to do with the woman he's protecting in Gaiden but I wouldn't think so since that's just a side story. of course it's not impossible that he could have tried to have a relationship during one of the gaps in time between games (à la Majima having an ex-wife between games), but that would be a really cheap way to write themselves out of Kiryu being generally uninterested in women. in conclusion?

#personally i hope it either flashes back to something he said as a kid or that this is a big fake out/ out of context scene #where he immediately quotes something he said to someone in the clan instead #yes i want him to quote something he's said to Majima but I'll settle for literally any other guy in the clan #he's getting phased out of 'main character' status for Ichiban and the new gang anyways right? #what better time than this to confirm that our beloved Kiryu isn't straight? #wishful thinking i know I KNOWWW i just really dont want them to slap another woman that we 1. dont know or #2. never got to see the relationship develop with #set Kiryu free please rgg studios. i see the posts yall make on Valentine's day and boyfriend day it would be hilarious to drop it in here #yeah i did obsess over this video for my entire work shift And What Of It. i feel like a youtube detective analysing his body language #and my conclusion came out to this: he's very autistic and is trying to stick to the image Ichiban must have of him -> #but in doing so backed himself into a corner and is panicking. thank you for ur time im going insane <3 #bulletin board #kiryu kazuma #yakuza 8 #like a dragon 8

i bet you could make like a chart of which content creators know each other and what sorta friend groups/circles they're part of and it would just be a HUGE web with a LOT of overlap between groups and it'd be SO messy with just the sheer amount of friendships between creators

#like it's honestly so baffling to me #like i know and am acquainted with fyrus and hackerling through failboat and now theyre appearing in vinesauce highlights?? #and apparently boat is friends with vinny who's friends with jerma who sorta has his own friend circle #and also through rubberross boat's interacted with very famous animators on youtube like jaiden and the odd1sout #and who knows what famous creators THEYVE probably interacted with (idk i dont watch them) #oh and also boat's friends with slimecicle who also has connections to the sorta like dream smp group i think(?) who again. pretty famous #and to think that being a mod for one streamer makes me sort of a part of this whole gigantic web of creators #who i could very well become acquainted with someday one way or another. WILD to me #like especially if i decide to start streaming later on which ive been considering #it's just. mind boggling putting it into perspective #(would be really fun if when i run a show one day i could get famous content creators to do voice cameos. imagine) #(or even to just straight up voice a recurring character. i do already have smth in mind there hehe) #<- all of this has been a peek into my deranged mind. i know i sound crazy i agree

[lavenite]

and i know its said a lot but im soooo serious when i say trans women who are musicians are so fucking good. go listen to pigeon pits three albums in a row and experiencing her journey in discovering herself and the evolutions of her relationship then come back to me

#i didnt even realize she was trans until halfway through the second album and i had to google it lol but seriously hope shes doing well #NOT TO BE CRINGE but as much as people rag on folkpunk i really do like it bc the albums are just from people. self produced and self writte #n #so its very personal. especially cause the bands usually deal with addiction or homelessness or gender issues #and often times when listening to someone whos been in the scene a while. you can basically see their journey as their music develops #like all of pat the bunnys bands are a very good example of this cause you compare johnny hobo to his final solo stuff…. #pigeon pit is another favorite of mine cause i listened to her whole discography on a road trip and yea it was good #and days n daze ofc cause thats my fav band LOL i even have all their earliest albums that arent on spotify on burned cds so i can listen to #it whenever. plus ive saved like every video of them i could possibly find on youtube. and read interviews and and WHATEVER closest thing il #ill get to a parasocial relationship but thats not happening bc i understand these are just people dealing with addiction and mental illness #in the way that they can #but yea whatever getting off track idk i like the things i do and i think its good

#so #maybe a week ago #there was a post about the doll commercial movie on my dash #and it was about how yeah the movies feminism was like 101 babys first feminism #because the audience it was aimed at arent people who have read feminist theory #so of course it was just The Basics #so that critique of it wasnt really valid or whatever #kinda like the ''are you trying to buy ice cream at the hardware store?'' idea #but more ''why are you trying to sell ice cream at the hardware store?'' #and the post annoyed me but im a mature adult who does not have the energy to get into fights on tumblr so i just scrolled past #and i was trying to parse through the annoyance to figure out why it annoyed me so much #and i was thinking ''did it annoy me because i was in this post and i didnt like it?'' #but i kept coming back to the two references to native americans in the film and how both were insensitive #one being the comparison of the kens implementing patriarchy to barbieland to the smallpox blankets and hence the wider genocide of natives #and the other being the barbie version of mount rushmore which you know was settlers desecrating the black hills which legally belonged to #natives and was a sacred mountain (going off memory i think the sioux the cheyenne and the lakota people all had claim) #and it was thinking about thst mixed with watching a leftist youtuber cover a prageru video that i realised why that post annoyed me so much #BECAUSE #the criticism wasnt just that the feminism in it is babys first feminism with the training wheels on #(which i also still kinda have a bone to pick with tbh but thats another post for another day) #a major part of the criticsm of the films feminist themes is that they were white feminist themes #the entire film was from the perspective of a white audience #the film was assumedly white if that makes any sense #like barbie is just Original Barbie because she just is. she was the first one and everyone came after her #at no point is her whiteness even acknowledged let alone explored #the film explores things like beauty standards and workplace misogyny and motherhood and the patriarchy in general but it dares not even #tiptoe around race. it just blatantly ignores it the way second wave feminism did. and oh does that coincide so unfortunately with the kens #strike back plot which lowkey perpetuates the myth that giving equal rights to an oppressed group will lead to them oppressing you #the lens from which the film views the world is one of whiteness and ignorance and privilege. white feminism is not feminism 101 #basic feminism should not exclude women of colour.

If I had a nickel for every "I bought some obvious scam product so YOU don't have to!" video that I've seen on YouTube, I'd have enough to buy all of the obvious scam products myself so that YOU don't have to!

#random rant #YouTube #The Day Before #Paid Mods #Call of Duty #and I'm not even talking about snake oil shit here guys #I'm talking mainstream shit only here #stop buying them #no really stop #you're not going to get famous for being that dumb idiot who bought it just to tell everyone how bad it is on the internets #you're just going to be another dumb idiot on the internet who actually bought something we all knew was a scam #god I actually watched a review for that The Day Before game from like the one YouTuber who's reviews I thoroughly enjoy #and I thought he was just reviewing the whole scam aspect of it not the game itself necessarily #so I did what every good YouTuber does #and I wrote a comment about how I was thoroughly impressed and delighted that he didn't buy the game himself #like every other idiot on the website did #but then we got to the actual review part of it #and he did in fact buy it #and I had to delete the comment #and I'm just like WTF seriously #I understand that there is a necessity to try a product before you can rightfully bash the fuck out of it #but that only applies if the product actually had potential to be real in the first place #there was no reality in which The Day Before was not a complete scam #anyone who actually paid for it deserves to lose their money #sorry not sorry

caution, gay joy and rambling in the tags ⚠️

#first of all me and my boss are going to a pre-christmas party hosted by another local queer owned tattoo studio #i went to their walk-in early this year and everyone was SO lovely so i'm super excited!! #it's just gonna be a night of drinks and snacks and hanging out with fellow queer artists :') #i will literally never ever get used to the fact that this is just. a thing that's part of my job. #hanging out with artsy gays professionally #wild. #also my girlfriend (who hopefully hasn't succeeded in her mission of finding my tumblr yet) is so amazing i can not deal with this #time LITERALLY flies when we're together and everything feels so easy and natural #she called me a treasure and i kept blushing for the rest of the day. god i love being gay #speaking of. really really unsure of where on the bi-lesbian line i stand again #because like. i can see a man and go 'oh he's gorgeous' and stuff #but only when they're unattainable to me #like this one youtuber rn. very hot but part of the charm is probably that he's on the other side of the world #(jordan adika btw. very funny i love the stuff he makes) #but trying to imagine myself actually being with a man? hm. #me and my gf were cuddling earlier this week and started talking like 'could you imagine being in this position with a man' #and my reaction was like '...........u know what. nah' #so ????? just going by queer lmao #also thinking of switching from she/they to they/she! not a huge change i just Feel Like It #personal

I swear my vocabulary has been ruined by this place

Bug annoys me? "I will eat you"

I really enjoy something someone wrote? My first instinct is "I'm eating this/I am consuming this/something similar"

Also earlier I texted saying a Slowbro set for the Cinderace event going on in SV fucks and my friend said, and I quote: "I am begging you to never word things like that again I am not young enough for new slang"

Edit: I don't know where I went in the tags it's late

#for reference my friend is my age so i found that very funny #its also interesting because like. i didnt have the shift in favorite character terminology that happened. #like i dont say 'i want to put him in the washing machine' and stuff like that. it didnt click with my brain. #unrelated but sometimes being able to remember shit really well is cool (like the lego star wars thing from earlier like i was 90% there) #but sometimes it sucks when you cant find what youre remembering. like this one set of d&d alignment videos i tried to find #there are so many i couldnt find it. i dont remember the channel name but the vid for chaotic good had robin hood on it #and i think lawful neutral had robocop? maybe they just talked about him in the video? #and i cant. fucking find the videos. #another thing i remembered i was eventually able to find again. these two people doing a thing doing dex stuff for all the pokemon #first time i looked i thought they were gone but second time i did find them. channels dead but at least it exists #unlike skydoesminecraft.exe where the only record is a full playthrough of the game i put on youtube. someone commented on it the other day #i hate when things go missing. i hate when people delete what they made from the internet. if its for privacy its. understandable. #i have unlisted some old yt vids of mine because my face was in them and i didnt want it on the internet #but otherwise. i dont like it. its why all of my terrible terrible wattpad fic is still out there. in case someone liked it. #it's 3 am i need to sleep

how did you get food at/get into painting your nails in a creative and/or elaborate way? i feel like i’m always so frustrated just trying to keep simple nails looking nice

well pretty much you just have to keep doing it. like it’s so annoying to say and hear but unfortunately the only way to get better at something is to just continue to do it frequently and over and over again 😐. i was never too committed to painting my nails at all until like. late high school when i realized i didn’t bite my nails so much when they were painted nice, and then i started doing them every week consistently because well. honestly the story is that i sort of lied to this girl i knew, when she complimented my nails (they were literally just solid blue with a darker accent nail) and i told her i did them every week (i did NOT) and she was so impressed i just. started doing them every week to not be a liar, and i also got into watching simplynailogical on youtube at that time which made me want to do nail art. but i never really did anything too crazy until the pandemic had me inside all the time and i stopped having to worry about people seeing my shitty nail art. um and then i just got better i guess. in hindsight it’s literally so stupid to be anxious about what strangers will think about your nails tho, like first of all they aren’t looking, secondly you don’t know them so who cares what they think if they are looking!!

also. good nail polish remover and a clean up brush can go a long way… i’m literally always getting nail polish on my skin and just dipping a brush in remover and wiping it away is so… life changing…

#basically you do just have to keep doing it #especially since your nails literally adapt to be able to hold nail polish longer when you repeatedly paint them #whenever i paint my sister’s nails for holidays (she never wears it otherwise) they just chip and peel off within like. a day #but mine always stays on really reliably just because my nails are more porous and used to it #and then if chipping is your problem you just need a good top coat #which some people want you to think needs to be expensive to be good but that’s a lie #i fucking SWEAR BY the LA colors color last top coat that you can buy for 2 dollars at walmart #that shit is my holy grail fr. it gets bubbly and thick after a while of using it but so does every good top coat #and by then you’ll be halfway through the bottle and can just go buy another one for 2 dollars… frankly you could steal it. it’s walmart #however it is a really thick top coat and if your nails aren’t used to being painted it will just peel off in a day like my sister’s #anyway. literally i recommend just becoming very obsessed with a nail art youtuber. ik it’s 2023 and yt is a dying medium but it’s reliable #no tiktoker is going to inspire passion for the most high effort low reward hobby on earth… #asks #anonymous

This is the problem with naming an audio software after a literal disaster like no I do not want to listen to "enhanced audio" of the Hindenburg disaster but yes I would like my disastrous audio in Hindenburg enhanced

#oh the humanity #just another day in the life of teaching people podcasts #really can't fault youtube for this it's trying it's best #also shoutout to the third video which will apparently teach me out to remove audio noise #the worst noise if we're being honest #making podcasts is so silly #podcasts
