I know the second scene is supposed to just be a tease of Kit Harrington's character and he is doing it in a moment of extreme desperation, but how in the world does he think using the Ebony Blade/becoming the Black Knight is supposed to help him find a celestial in some alternate galaxy?

I'm on my 40's and to this day I don't know the names of every guy in One Direction, or how they look like, because I don't care. It's not my type of music. And that's okay and completely normal.

Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes was also pretty good. Not as good as Spectacular, but noteworthy for the sheer amount of heroes & villains they gave time to.

Desperado Bones posted:I need to watch Harley Quinn, the clips I've seen on youtube are loving hilarious. This is true. Hit Monkey is excellent. But it really does feel like Marvel greenlit the project but also stopped caring and forgot about it so the creators were like "What if we made it good? No one's looking."

What kind of match is that? Dude's loving 13; do American sports channels actually air amateur teenage games? I know it's involving international teams, but even then, that seems like fairly minor poo poo. Is it just desperation for content to fill 24 hours, or do people actually watch that kind of thing?

I see you're not familiar with the 1993 sports documentary Rookie of the Year. They let kids play professional sports all the time.

Being famous doesn’t matter anymore, there are literally thousands of TikTok/Instagram influencers with as much money and industry pull as Hollywood movie stars now, who cares about any of them and why would you bother? In the 90’s there was only 3 kinds of famous. You write a book, you’re on TV or movies, or you make music. That was it, that was the only way to become rich and famous. Nowadays you can buy a house making a YouTube channel about hedge trimming for beginners or being a Tik Tok life coach, Hollywood is probably the worst way to get famous these days, IMO.

Without looking them up first I’m gonna guess she’s a Billy Eilish type musician who makes sad gorl music? *googling* She’s a 21 year old blonde girl from Louisiana who made $8,000,000 dancing with her mom on TikTok and now she owns her own production company in LA? Jesus Christ this planet fuckin sucks lol

I think that was a study that showed that the top 1% of the streamers and tiktokers basically made minimum wage. You really have to be the top 1% of the 1% to make any kind of money. There's also this insanely toxic element of parasocial affair that being an actor doesn't really have by default. Like actors have fans, but you don't talk to them everyday as if they were your friends and they don't have a direct impact on your life

Hasan Abi made a few million dollars streaming on Twitch, and his buying a house made national news, but he voluntarily turned his own life into the Truman show. He streamed 40% of the total year in 2021. 8-10 hours a day, 7 days a week, to make that paper. That sounds insanely difficult and also like a total nightmare. I also am the type of person who really needs job security and YouTube is literally just an algorithm at this point, even the big channels can’t get in touch with a real person unless they have a YouTube content contract.

He also admits that he's gotten many lucky breaks including having an uncle that owns a media outlet. Not sure I'd want to trade places with Hasan honestly. The constant death threats from chuds to family and friends alone. Plus streaming 10 hours a day just looks miserable

I don't watch streamers that much but I noticed a good chunk of Youtubers that really benefitted from the pandemic, and going from ~10k to ~250k+ subs gives the appearance that they are bringing in a very comfortable income. Now channels that are based on projects and need to purchase/invest in stuff for content seem to have to really be smart about how they manage it or one day their subs are going to drop and they will have no long term investments. But yeah people doing game streaming / tv reactions need to spend so much god drat time creating content and it seems really exhausting.
