I love to rewatch Kyle Kallghren's Summer of Shakespeare videos to chill out. I also have a few of Sage's Anime Abandon videos set aside when I want to reaffirm myself.

Agreed.

Their Detroit series where they intentionally just tried to derail the story every chance they got and so ended up with the ending that completely undermines everything that the game might have possibly had to say was :discourse:

On a similar note, I enjoy Film Joy's Deep Dive series (featuring Mikey Neumann of Movies with Mikey fame) which is sort of like an anti-cynical version of Best of the Worst:

It's four people who watch movies which are regarded as mediocre or otherwise flawed and try to find the good in them which always creates positive vibes.

For me, nothing delivers a quick laugh better than one of Phelous’ reviews of terrible cartoons or knockoff toys, or one of the Retsupurae episodes from before they just started talking over entire game playthroughs.

Of course if I expand it beyond critics there’s a whole world of classic YTP makers I keep going back to, such as cs188 and TheMasterPoop. I dare anyone to watch “It’s All Right Here at Your Fingertits” or “Harry Potter and the Flesh Eatin’ Slug Repellant” and not crack up.

"Harry Potter and the Flesh Eating Slug Repellant" is honestly pretty amazing in terms of the editing. I have to think the guy who makes those videos does some kind of work with visuals effects in film or something.

Dig into the replies and apparently it's literally Gamergate

TERFs are loving ecstatic about a report being released that validates their entire position.

oh wait, the report is just a summary of an investigation into the experiment.


oh wait, the investigation was written by the same guy and is not an actual investigation but just an article written on a TERF website.


oh, and the author was caught last year running a twitter account that was shut down for transphobia.

Why was that old gently caress famous in the first place? He seems like a morrissey situation where he’s been grandfathered in to popular culture despite being a oval office, but I don’t know who he is.

He created some British comedy shows back in the day, such as Father Ted and the IT Crowd. And he was lovely to trans people in the IT Crowd so all this is no surprise at all.

Never forget that Linehan became a regressive because someone told him an episode of IT Crowd was transphobic.

Like, that’s the irony of Linehan’s Crusade: it all started because a woman dared to criticize a man. And instead of admitting he was wrong, he just doubled down. Hm...sounds a lot like how gamergate started now that I think of it :thunk:
