Adhd loving blows. I’ve spent the last 2 months doing jack poo poo. I don’t want to do anything but play halo and helldivers It’s debilitating But mfs like somerton need to stop blaming that poo poo on adhd. Get some pills and do your poo poo dude. I forget things all the time but I don’t plagiarize because I don’t set myself up to forget such a thing. Stinky rear end

KingKalamari posted:I'm still baffled by how the reaction video genre took off. Who are the millions of people who keep watching these? Are they aware that other types of media exist? trilobite terror posted:It’s parasociality in its purest form. All of the enjoyment of hanging out with friends without any of the effort or work or responsibility. That's also true for livestreaming & v-tubers, most multi-person podcasts etc etc which makes up a gigantic proportion of youtube content. But going back even further it was also a big factor in the popularity of talkback radio, TV morning shows, sports discussion/analysis TV, etc etc. Pop culture reaxx videos were just opening up the format to a new audience

watching a guy go 'haha' at a funny internet clip is parasocial, unlike caring deeply about youtubers' political opinions

All content consumption is actually parasocial, little known fact. Also it turns you into a chud.

i'm getting interested in watching various animated pilots on youtube and this is one that just came out this week that i thought was decent, also recognized a couple of animators in the credits (including Joshua Palmer who created/animated the series Monkey Wrench). more family-leaning this one, although I think that's probably not unusual for a lot of animated pilots because it's what networks are largely buying https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eH-ujKvm4Pc it was kind of a nice salve after trying and failing to get through the Digital Circus pilot

Note that livestreaming where they interact with chat isn't parasocial but it's still "the enjoyment of hanging out with friends without any of the effort or work or responsibility."

Feel like because the term parasocial has become increasingly diluted by people free associating the concept in a contextless void until it just means something from a creator is personal or conversational, while still trying to retain some clinical severity of when it is used to describe relationships grifters court with manipulative language and tactics to make their audience feel closer to them in order to extract things from them. I don't like X so it's the Bad Thing because I can gymnastics the word in here, not because the creator is doing anything particularly malign I just want to insult people who enjoy a thing I don't like.

the whole thing about 'parasocial' as a term that people are totally missing is that, it is normal, to be a bit parasocial. saying behavior is parasocial is not a free win to intellectual superiority. everyone engages in some amount of parasocial behavior. it is simply how the human brain works. there are positive effects of parasocial behavior. it is part of how people understand the world and society around them. this has been studied and well documented for decades. parasocial behavior only becomes toxic when you are hinging your emotional or physical well being on it, or pushing aside actual relationships for it. stop using it as a synonym for 'watching youtube videos i dont like.'

Parasocial has become such a buzzword I've seen it used to describe abusive relationships between people who straight up know and directly interact with each other. Just because a relationship is dishonest (like one side believing the other loves them) doesn't make it parasocial. And conversely a parasocial relationship doesn't have to involve deception? You can definitely hold opinions on people who you will never meet or meaningfully interact with based on their actions. mycot fucked around with this message at 08:19 on Feb 27, 2024 |

sometimes it's nice to watch people experiencing media that I like for the first time and wondering if they'll pick up on little details or have some analysis which gives me a new perspective on the material.

People love to overuse and dilute words until they're entirely meaningsless, most of the time because they don't actually understand the word and think it just means "thing/person I don't like". Parasocial, chud, grifter, Goon. Sydin posted:firing up youtube rn and folks, I'm gonna watch some reaction videos. I might even get some joy out of watching other people like a thing I also like!!!

One time I tried looking through the catalogues at an academic library to see the research on parasocial relationships. To my surprise, the field hasn't really advanced all that much from back when the first paper on "para-social interactions" was first written during the television era. The research remains surprisingly sparse even now. One of the more recent books on the subject I could find cast some degree of doubt on if parasociability either exists at all or even as advertised; going so far to posit another alternative explanation that'll likely never catch on. At least they tried. Honestly, I don't even know what to make of it. I just kinda figured, for all I've heard about parasocial stuff, there'd be more to it. There wasn't. The end, no moral.

Yeah this is pretty much the point I was trying to make, if reaction videos fell under the 'parasocial' label then so would a whole lot of widespread radio & TV formats going back many many decades

If you had a head injury that was causing you memory issues from birth and you wrote stuff for a living and part of your process was using other people's writing as a jumping off point, wouldn't you at some point figure out how to put in little notes like [this came from X, make sure to rewrite it]. Pretty sure Google docs can do that. Scrivener can do that. You could like. Highlight those passages in a different color... Just seems like if you had been living with memory issues since you were a child, you would figure out ways to deal with them. Just seems like a really obvious lie because the guy doesn't want to say "I stole people's poo poo because I wanted to make the most amount of money possible with the least amount of effort possible." Are we sure he's not lying about being a marketing expert too, I thought marketing people were supposed to be good at convincing you of poo poo.

Pretty sure Google docs can do that. Scrivener can do that. You could like. Highlight those passages in a different color... I also really don't see how memory issues result in you copy/pasting MULTIPLE other people's work into your script document, breaking them up so you have the bits you want near each other. It's not a jumping off point if you're doing decoupage with other people's work. Plus his rewriting just consisted of doing a find/replace for LGBT with queer or the other way around, whatever the gently caress he did, so even if he remembered to do it it would still be clearly identifiable. If he just said "I wanted to be famous and I did it off other people's backs and that was wrong, I'm sorry" then he might have got some traction. Instead we had a written statement where he claimed to be under attack, a video that got deleted immediately where he threw his cowriter to the wolves, didn't apologise and reopened his patreon, and now this where he's monetised the apology and saying he did plagiarism because of brain damage.

I was speaking to someone and they made the point that anyone who has memory problems will actually attempt to get it fixed and/or make sure your actions won't hurt people or become debilitating, only acknowledging them now pretty much renders his "memory problems" pure bs
