Yea Lake City Quiet Pills was a total LARP that just started from a weird pedo and his friends last I heard

I also remember some development coming out about a year or so ago, but I also remember thinking that it was an obvious LARP back when the Thinking Sideways podcast covered it and that would probably have been 3-5 years ago.

It's kind of fascinating because it was basically a trial run of early QAnon, with people building a whole narrative out of "secret codes" and stuff. Except it was a nightmare to try to bring it up to anyone since you had to attach a whole warning about how adjacent everything was to r/jailbait and pedo stuff and tell them to not do their own research outside of other people's videos/podcasts.

Sounds like his video would get demonetized based on what you're saying. Youtubers couldn't say the word "corona" or "coronavirus" for a while or they'd get demonetized, it's why the Grumps started referring to it as the Backstreet Boys reunion tour. I believe it's okay to say now, but that's a weird thing youtube does

I'm seeing more and more youtubers go to patreon as a more consistent form of income because of the nonsense youtube does

Unfortunately even Patreon doesn't fully negate the problem as a demonetized video won't be promoted in searches or related videos. It's fine for creators with an established audience but can be a real killer for small to mid-sized channels.

Weirder thing is that at least where I was as someone in middle school in America in 2002 it was less paranoia and overwhelming fear and more tasteless/racist jokes and embarrassing oh-rah patriotism and arguments about the war. And that was more a thing for boys and history channel nerds.

The Hulu show, Rami, had a scene where the Egyptian main character's friends wanted him to go jerk off in the woods to prove he wasn't a radical Muslim. And that kind of felt more like the dumb energy of the time.

I followed him for a while. He had some idiosyncratic opinions and definitely leaned a bit into the Angry Internet Critic shtick even as that was going out of style, but I could look past those and find him entertaining. Then he created a series of videos about what he thought was wrong with all of the social media platforms that revealed he definitely had no compunctions about talking about things he didn't really understand, and then at the start of the pandemic he put out a video that was just a few steps short of "plandemic" conspiracies and I dropped him like a hot potato. Also, apparently he's obsessed with creating his own animated show but doesn't really understand how to make one (to the point that he has no pilot but does have over 50 completed scripts for this hypothetical show):

Side note everyone got to watching The King of Comedy. I found it to be dark and disturbing but still funny and earnest film. I really liked it, thanks. After this and Taxi Driver I have come around to the idea that the ending being a dream is not nearly as disturbing as the possibility of the ending being real in film.

Yeah I was an 8/9 year old kid in Vancouver BC and 9/11 was something grown-ups cared about. I also thought the DC snipers were the remaining terrorists from 9/11 somehow.

Nexpo took a deep deep dive into that old Lake City Quiet pills thing, starting off with something I didn't know that makes everything after deeply predictable. Lake City Quiet pills was first mentioned on reddit by a guy called ReligionOfPeace, a right wing moderator of r/jailbait. The image host was heavily used by that subreddit until it got chased off the internet, which this forum actually helped with doing in one of our few proud moments.

Knowing that, the mystery unfolds pretty much the way you think it will if you've ever dealt with online right wing pedophiles. But the enormous amount of effort done in digging up what's found is really noteworthy, even if he does continue to talk around the obvious conclusion in order to make it seem more mysterious.

I just finished this a bit ago and it was super good, other than Nexpo's bizarre compulsion to use obnoxious editing in the chapter sequences. I'd been binging Nexpo recently and skipped it, thinking, "Oh, I know the Quiet Pills thing, whatever." But this actually had a lot of interesting details I hadn't seen before, and the story's nicely constructed. If you skipped it because it's old material, give it a try- it might surprise you. (Or I just didn't retain a lot of stuff from my original introduction to the whole thing.)

That is the most beautiful cut I have ever seen. I'll get to Casino some other time. Scorsese is quickly being a name I am associating with high quality films that are worth the hours spent.

Mr Enter really needed their media manager to keep them of twitter. And if this is their media manager approving this, or the media manager themselves, good grief.

Captain Invictus posted:

Kenny Lauderdale is going through this exact problem right now

He just put out a patron-only(?) companion video to his last one talking about this, for context to those who haven't seen it, and some of the things he discusses in the half-apology video for the latest release he did are:
- the earlier mentioned "I cannot say X words in the video or I get flagged and demonetized immediately" problem
- the anime he's discussing has a lot more meat on its bones in some weird ways but he can't show roughly 45% of the footage because of random boob, making it harder to work with interesting visual material
- with Toei and some other japanese companies going hog on claiming videos, he specifically sought out a test topic which was from a company who is long dead, just as bot-bait to see if it's ACTUALLY companies trying to take these down or someone just spamming claims
- one of the actresses was doing probably-porn (he doesn't clarify, but reading between the lines) at the time of the project before she transitioned out of that into voice acting/a music career, but again, can't really say those words OR show any of that footage in the slightest...
- basically the current state of anything to do with the material he most knows and was trying to discuss is such a minefield due to Google trying to save every possible penny on moderation and throwing AI at the problem instead of staff in such a way that all of his current projects are "safe" videos because he's going to be in algorithm jail if he goes with anything remotely spicy or attention-grabbing from what he has in progress
-- tied to that last one: the terrible state of the platform's "spam protection" in comments hides or deletes things with no control from the channel owner, or buries them in a horrendous pocket of the site which you have to actively seek out to discover people trying to leave (what he has found to be) very helpful messages at times that might also push discussion on a video... if people could see them.

It sucks because the incredibly frank video that he posted but won't make public is so much more fascinating than the thing he put out to try and keep himself in the algorithm's graces

edit: what the actual gently caress at the actual ending of that OVA or some of the footage he couldn't use in the main one for age restriction reasons: somewhere in the middle magic goes awry and clones the MC, so he SHANKS HIMSELF AND THE CLONE VISIBLY BLEEDS OUT AND DISAPPEARS, and then in the final act the protag dies in a bike chase, causing him to enter a dream realm filled with naked witches, at which point his love for the girl wins over the god of that plane so he is revived, and POPS OUT OF HIS OWN COFFIN in a hermaphroditic form fused with the witch. What. I see why he wanted to talk about this before all the content flagging made him slice it to death.
