The ending of the most recent one on The Titan is a masterstroke.

I think his point is more that you never know when notoriety will be permanently branded to you and haunt you to your dying days, so you better be ready to deal with that. That might also be tied into that other video he did recently about how Music Twitter still harasses him every year when a half-baked Vox interview he did resurfaces on social media each Christmas season: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxUnwsttr_8

His point was that if you put yourself out there in the public sphere as a creator you have to acknowledge that anything you create - regardless of the effort put in or your own personal feelings towards it - could randomly be latched onto by the public and forever define you as a creator. You don't nessecarily have to be happy about it, but obsessing over it is a recipe for driving yourself mad.

Oh, okay. My bad. I probably wasn't paying enough attention, I'll admit that. I have a hard time focusing on what he's saying over the volume of his unbearable yuppie smugness.

Found this channel called Techmoan that talks about old tech, mostly audio or video stuff. For a weirdo like me who collects anime laserdiscs and 8CM cd's, this stuff is really cool https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEISYaWgCRg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZmWS1ER-z0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8568_3amO4

It popped up a little too late for me to watch it last night, especially since it is 2 1/2 hours long, so I was just going to watch it today. More fool me I guess.

frankly the tribulations of the beanman were fun, an amusing experience, actual entertainment. I would rather hear about the humiliation of the beanfather right now than deal with yet more news about a pack of rabid psychopaths trying to murder senators

I'm not saying do a video on politics. I'm saying this could've been an easy skippable thing and just not make a video. But whatever I guess doesn't really matter its just nitpicking.

Bean Dad was a really disapointing for me as it happened a week after I got into his war movie podcast. I kinda feel people overeacted a tad with the accusations of child abuse and its not really cool that people dug into his post history to cancel the guy over that, but I'm glad that poo poo got aired out so I guess a good thing happened for a deeply stupid reason. The actual Bean Dad post were laser presision insufferable, just an incrediblly tale smug tale of doing something completely inane and cruel presented like he was being the dad of year. Very frustrating to watch the guy implode so completely after that for me though, I like the War movie podcast's other 2 hosts a lot and I'd prefer to continue to listen them talk about interesting movies with historical context and poo poo than listen to the Star Trek podcast they do without Bean Dad. Really ruined the meltdown for me. Very funny how quickly the Mcelroys dropped his themesong from their podcast though lol. Its been a huge part of their branding for years but I don't think it'll be missed that much.

Had to stop following a couple people after they made posts saying the Bean dad was abusive. One person likened the can opener story to their mom telling them about the latin or greek roots of words when they were 10 was somehow abusive. Really harrowing stuff.

Jenny’s Vampire Diaries went back up for a while at least. If anyone gets the chance I would definitely recommend it. It is two and a half hours of the best kind of nonsense.

Anyone remember a video on cosmetics and lootboxes and all that poo poo? I faintly remember that one of the main points was something like 'Cosmetics aren't non-essential, if they didn't matter, they wouldn't be asking you to pay for them.'AngryBooch posted:Had to stop following a couple people after they made posts saying the Bean dad was abusive.

Minor detail that no one's really aware about. chitoryu12 posted:Even worse. Sadly the tweet's deleted so there goes the full context as well.

Really the most mind-blowing thing about it was that he apparently kept doubling down on the day of, although most of those tweets are gone too. Like, his apology does lightly go into how he told it in an intentionally obnoxious way and that he left out the supposed fun that they had during it. Although hearing that it did pretty much happen that way (just with more laughing and a snack) is still kind of surprising and stupid. But, I don't understand why someone in that position doesn't immediately throw out a quick "Oops, this was a joke that only my fans and followers would get. Obviously, I was exaggerating and mocking the whole subgenre of dumb boomer parenting and woke toddler tweets. It didn't really happen this way. It was a bad joke. I understand and I'm sorry if I upset it anyone." Pin it, nuke your old tweets and turn off notifications for a few days. But, no, gotta double down. I'm also starting to feel a little cursed. Like Phillby, I went through and added a bunch of the old Friendly Fire podcasts to my library about a day or so before Bean Dad. Not that long ago, I started lining up Cryaotic streams to watch about a day before he came out with his "oh, whoops I kind of groomed some underage fans" message. I also idly started to watch the daily highlights from FunHaus right before they had their little scandal. Woolie's Paper Mario playthrough has been on my watchlist for a bit so hopefully it's chosen to pass that channel over at least.
