if i wanted to get into heaven and god said the narrator's waiting inside i would piss on gods feet for the sole purpose of getting sent back down. if i have to deal with the narrator speaking one word in person on voice in game not only will i close the window i will load my history out of spite and have to replay the entire game again for the experience of being able to skip all the times when he is mentioned or alive. i dont even know why i hate him so much. he ignores mirrors but i am just mad because i am ANGY. he better have some fucked up backstory to explain this if hes just some rich shithead whos a fan of creepypasta and wanted the irl version ill go ham. BETTER have had a princess make him kill a man cuz if he didnt Im going to make him.

chapter's not even about him. vaguely mentioned what is supposed to maybe be his opinion and I lost it. where the fuck is the narrator if hes still alive im going to so deeply wish he wasnt.crusty old man. ill punch narrator and his sad frail old bird twig bones will simply flake apart under my epic huge meat fist and he will disintegrate until all thats left is one final mirror he kept on him at all times simply reflecting Now You Fucked Up in ancient yiddish. im not breathing im hyperventilating at this point. i hope theres a date given for when narrator died or will die so i can make it a reminder on my phone, and everyday once a year i will see it and do anything but pay respects to the man who had so many fucked up if true monarchs

#once again #this is for only a small percentage of people #eh? eh? #the narrator rant anyone? #I spent too long editing this to fit him lol #tma #Jurgen Leitner rant #the narrator #stp #slay the princess

As someone who has steadily kept up on almost all Watcher shows and side projects, this backlash really does come down to how out of touch the guys have become, even before making Friday’s announcement.

Ryan and Shane (certainly the biggest draw to the channel) got their start with lower-brow, boyish humor and riffing off each other. Can’t forget the capitalism-critical and “power to the underdog” attitude that resonated with so many fans early on either. Now though, if you watch/listen to Pod Watcher, it’s hard to overlook just how unrelatable they’ve become in recent years. Which is whatever—it’s not like we only consume media in order to intimately relate to hosts/characters—but it does mean they’ve lost something integral from the charm that netted them their initial success.

To add. If you watched their latest season of Too Many Spirits, they weren’t even funny, just trashed and off-putting, lol. Frat-style drinking by a backyard pool and Ryan overhand throwing bones at a neighbor’s dog for barking.

Maybe not as bad for Shane, but the egos have really grown uncomfortably outsized. And at some point I got tired of watching videos based around lavish over-indulgence. Even if Steven’s videos cost less to produce than Ghost Files (I assume), they clearly rub viewers the wrong way on principle alone.

All in all, and not to minimize their hard work in getting out the content that they do, I think the Watcher guys should’ve been much more careful in considering this move and its rollout.

For years, I’ve maintained a Patreon subscription to a separate and unrelated funny-guy trio (for the same monthly price Watcher Streaming is now asking). However. The group I subscribe to is more than situationally-funny-sometimes, and always come across as grounded, emotionally intelligent, and likable people. Which makes me want to see them succeed and help how I can (though I would still be able to access 95% of their content even without subscribing).

So yeah, idk. Steven Lim driving a Tesla and wanting a second one or whatever is kind of just the tip of the iceberg.

#watcher #⬆️ I think this is why people have felt as insulted as they have #I know there are some calling the level of backlash unfair. But………… #I was talking with someone and we almost even wondered if this was actually an exit plan. lmao. #like they know they can’t do it forever so they figure they’d do another couple years juicing their most loyal of fans #before bowing out with a comfortable amount 💰 put away (not to be pessimistic tinfoil hat gang. lololol) #Because it really does seem like poor decision-making #where business model would do very little to gain new viewers #and subscriber base would amount to small-small percentage of current fans #a number that will just dwindle over time #Youtube #I will also say I only sometimes watch Charlie’s stuff but I thought this was a pretty solid and informative summation

[inkyzinky]

i feel like between sunk cost fallacy of "we've already put so much effort and money into the streamer we can't possibly backtrack" and their artistic vision for "tv caliber" shows, there's no way they don't double down on all this

#watcher #and i don't even think this will sink them #over 100k people have unsubscribed from the youtube #the goodbye video has over 200k dislikes #only half the people who've disliked have actually unsubscribed and that still leaves watcher with nearly 3M subscribers #what ever small conversion percentage from youtube viewer to streamer subscriber they need to make the financials work right out the gate #i think they'll at least get close. #this won't kill them immediately but how long they last is anybody's guess #god i wish i could know that the streamer signup numbers are looking like right now

My friends goaded me into doing my own poll so this is just a silly gauge gearing towards my audience involving pairings I've drawn before

Vote here

#dltext #can't neatly replicate the tourney here and i don't wanna spam people's dashes 8 times in a row #i wonder if the results would be different bc the ak community here is smaller #or at least only a small percentage of my followers on tumblr like ak #i think this one is more evenly matched #the one on twitter is depressing to look at lol #i should've put more thought into it before

Seeing r/systemscringe straight up misinterpreting the DSM is disappointing but not surprising

#they're trying to say only a small percentage of people with DID have alter names #and their reference is the part talking about more overt presentations of DID which IS less common #that happens to mention names #like buddy there is a reason it mentions things like different hairstyles and personalities and ACCENTS #a person with DID internally having different names does not make them fall into that small percentage by itself #because for a lot that is an internal thing that is not externally obvious in real life #most of the people with DID you see online are not going around announcing their individual names every time a different alter fronts irl #that passage is telling that it is more common for DID to be covert #syscourse

i feel with lesbians, and im allowed to say this because im a lesbian, but honestly the punishment of individual lesbians is almost incidental compared to the fact its literally about making an example out of us. its like theres a potential lesbian in every woman and thats really who is being punished. straight women’s fear of acquiring that status VASTLY outweighs my actual lived discomfort as a lesbian. so much of the homophobia i experience stems from the perceived impossibility of my existence and the need to present me as repulsive, not directly to punish ME but to make other women afraid of being like me. so arguing like who would specifically be perceived as a lesbian in what situation feels so shallow when literally every woman is on some level perceived as like. a threat of hypothetical lesbian possibility

#because people will be like you HAVE to wear makeup as a woman or youll be PUNISHED #and its like. you absolutely can live a happy fulfilling life as a woman who doesnt wear makeup #the goal is not to stop the small percentage of women who dont wear makeup and shave #its to make sure the majority of women are so terrified of that punishment that you dont even need to actually dole out the punishment #straight women in particular are SO self-punishing its like the patriarchy doesnt even need to lift a finger anymore #and its a bit apples and oranges to me like personally id rather be crazy but free than safe and imprisoned but like #an understanding of lesbophobia that doesnt get this is pointless #the suffering that comes with being the one everyone points to n goes 'at least youre not THAT' is only half of the story #and personally recognising this has kind of freed me because its like actually so much of the punishment i experience is actually a threat #that doesnt actually come if you like. dont gaf what straight people and men think of you

"Hi Ren" animatic with Rentheking and the Red King

#people who headcanon the red king as being a seperate character from ren prime #i like you #i agree with you #animatic idea #rendog #renthedog #rentheking #the red king #tagging only a very small percentage of the rens #there's like 80 of em #someone tell that man to stop multiplying #/jjjjj

Just a thought about my theater education but I feel like it might have been irresponsible to have a bunch of teenagers do intense method acting drills and use our personal (sometimes traumatizing) memories to draw on for characters instead of having us imagine hypotheticals? Even if there was more than the like 3% chance someone in that class would end up as an adult with a hobby or career in acting that involves character work that deep, that was kinda fucked up actually??

#i saw someone talking about how traumatizing the methods were of the acting theorists currently considered masters #like Meisner and Stanislavsky #and had a big Oh! moment about it #like i already knew those classes made a deep impact on my psyche and dissociation but its something else #to see someone talking about how traumatizing that shit is for adults who are already pro actors!! #some of the emotional and sometimes even physical trauma theater students go through reminds me of high school football in a certain way #all this damage to train people for a lifestyle only a small percentage of them will even PURSUE as adults let alone succeed at

For #VarletArtParty on birdapp! Instead of Makoh'to I took Alfonse since the theme was royal/knightly and, well, I didn't grind CC to get him that armor to not show him off in it! (Makoh'to is also not a royal/knightly guy lol)

also i feel like "adoption bait" jokes are like,, only funny maybe once, and the reality of bruce is actually trying to Not bring in more kids but everyone after jason forced themselves into the family is Way more interesting for dpxdc fics. especially in bad fenton parents aus?

the thing is, bruce has a lot of hesitance with bringing new people in, especially kids because 1. they will not be safe even if they don't become vigilantes 2. they can't be trusted 3. it's a lot harder for everyone to hide who they are if they bring a civilian in and 4. bruce now feels responsible for the life of Another kid. like,, i get why people make the adoption jokes, but i think the angst potential is so much more interesting than "bruce and co immediately want to adopt danny".

like can you imagine an au with bad fenton parents and danny is still a teen and he's heard about how bruce/batman brings in sad cases. maybe, just maybe this guy could actually help him? give him a safe home? or maybe danny doesn't want to be adopted right away but slowly bonds with the family and eventually wants to be included. the heartache knowing that bruce doesn't want that to happen. like?? hello!!!

there's sooo much you could do with bruce not wanting more kids in the family!!! so much!!!

#again ik there's some tension rn with canon vs fanon but i really do think canon is more interesting #sorry alhdgla #like fanon tropes are really only fun if its like. a small percentage of fics imo #but when everyone is doing it and kind of toting it as The Truth it just makes things boring #and it makes it harder to talk about the actual canon dynamics #like bruce and the other members desperately not wanting more people to join is so interesting!! #and its not like a 'you cant sit with us' kind of attitude! its a 'this life is dangerous and people die all the time and adding more #makes us all feel guilty when we know they couldve had a normal clown free life without us' situation #thats actually a big reason why some of the bat.fam arent actually In the fam #like steph obviously has her whole thing with tim so that adds to it but also bruce straight up didnt want her there!!! #she had to prove herself!! #so did duke so did damian so did tim #like! #i just feel like the angsty bat.fam adopts danny aus could be so much more angsty if people knew about this #like the comedic ones are fine they can keep making adoption bait jokes #but the angsty ones? the serious ones? the ones where im supposed to believe the bat.fam are genuinely adding him in? #make him suffer!!!!! #SUFFER WHITE BOY SUFFER #aldgdlhga #i love how so much of this fandom is just Make Danny Suffer #real fun vibes #dcxdp

Can’t wait to be Tumblr Famous for Do You Love the Color of the Comic.

#just had someone comment that I should put it under a cut #but you can just have tumblr shorten long posts now and they don’t circulate the same if someone has to opt in #¯\_(ツ)_/¯ #ramblies #only a tiny bit sorry for the small percentage of people I piss off but no one has to scroll past them more than me

hey mutuals you trust my taste in games right...... you would trust me if I got into something that's not as bad as what I'd heard about it/I previously expected it to be, and you would trust me to be normal about it right !! .....right?

#maggles ramblings #don't mind me i just. recently started caring about a rather small percentage of characters from another rhythm game #and as much as i want to yell. there is always the feeling of impending embarrassment behind me when i talk about things I'm newly into #bc WHAT IF PEOPLE ONLY KNOW ABOUT THINGS FROM IT THAT SOUND TERRIBLE WITHOUT ADDED INFO..... #or WHAT IF THERE'S SOME ACTUALLY TERRIBLE STUFF IN THERE I JUST HAVEN'T GOT TO YET AND EVERYONE ELSE KNOWS BUT NOT ME..... #etc etc. just. The Nervousness #the fear. and all that #oh yea AND the WHAT IF THE PEOPLE I KNOW JUST THINK IT'S CRINGE FOR ANY REASON #why is it always so scary; not just getting into things but to Talk about them

the new polls showed me just how many people can see a post and how the notes isn’t a reflection of reach at all. like are you telling me a poll got 42k people voting and only 6k notes? including likes?

#this simultaneously makes me feel better about my art and worse LOL #like more people see it!! only a small percentage of them actually interact with it lol

in my bmc section of the autism rotation so here's some squip brainrot:

(j squip is jeremy's squip & r squip is rich's squip teehee)

-after r was deactivated he was released and thanked for his volunteer work at Sony, and was given an apartment to live in with a 1 year lease, 6 months of rent money, 1 month worth of groceries money, and also some extra money for any other needs (clothes, household items, etc..), and of course a contract to sign saying that he would not take any legal action against Sony for any damage — physical or mental — that may have been caused by the experiment

-after the events of bmc j is also given the option to receive all the things r did or to "move in with someone you previously already knew", so he decides to call up r and he agrees to let him move in !!

-j works at an ice cream store and r works as a bartender

-j sleeps in the bedroom and r sleeps on the couch because j prefers having more privacy while r doesnt care and will walk around the apartment dick n balls out

-j is incredibly fascinated with computers & things such as tvs, cd players, etc etc.. he can go on forever about the different parts of a computer and how they work separately and with each other. whenever he has some spending money he'll buy second-hand radios and dvd players, etc & take them apart and put them back together, or try and fix them

-j's love of computers is actually what had intrigued him into volunteering for the Squip Experiment at Sony because he was so fascinated by the idea of actually getting to be a computer

-for his birthday r saved up some money and took j to a really nice restaurant because despite r not liking fancy restaurants he knew that j liked them

-and then when they got home r told j to get ready for bed and then come back out cus he had a gift for him; a broken radio from the 1950s that j could try and fix

-he told j to get ready for bed cus he knew that he'd spend hours fiddling with the radio and he wanted him to have done his nightly routine before so that he wouldnt have to do it after at like 5am

-r falls asleep to the TV because he cant be alone in silence because as a squip if you were alone in silence it meant that your host was dead / unconcious, and r couldnt shake that feeling so he puts the TV on to help him be calm enough to sleep

-they actually have the TV on most of the day because it being completely silent is still hard for them to cope with

-j has a fat crush on r and has been doing his best to hide it until like theyre eating at a mcdonalds at 3am and r is absolutely chowing down on a McDouble and j is so overcome with love and confidence that he goes "R im in love with you" and r is so flabbergasted

-teehee they start dating and r likes to call j his husband in public because he 1. thinks it sounds much better than boyfriend and 2. loves how flustered it makes j

-j doesn't like being around a lot of strangers or being in loud spaces

-when j gets overstimulated he stops talking and him & r have developed a system to communicate with each other when it happens

-and then when they get home r helps j to calm down and help him feel better like making his favorite food, giving him something to fiddle with, helping him change into comfier clothes, giving him his weighted blanket etc

-if you couldnt tell already yes im making human j squip autistic because i am autistic and i love squip and thats all the explanation you need

-j loves wine because he is That Girl

#be more chill #bmc #squip #this only appeals to like a small percentage of people but i felt like sharing teehee #and these arent even all my thoughts just a handful

I’m glad tumblr doesn’t show view counts like twitter apparently does now because if I had to be constantly confronted with the possible fact that hundreds of my followers are still active and seeing my posts while I still get ≤8 notes on average I think I would stop talking forever

#DA and twitter extremely small percentage of people who see my posts interact with them #but luckily I do not care about DA or twitter #DA is pretty much backup art storage in case something ever happened to my files #and twitter I only use so my friends who don't use tumblr can follow me #and to see when nintendo directs are announced #to be clear this isn't a 'why aren't u liking my posts' post #more social anxiety like oh sorry for bothering so many of you I thought there were only like 15 of you still here
