Section 1: Woman?
I want to be as fair and just in my analysis as possible of course, because although it would be only too easy for me to make a long video complaining how this game, which is full to bursting with sexy anime ninja-maids is sexist… and misogynistic… and problematic…
What was I saying?

2019-05-23 19:38:28 +0000 UTC View PostI heard about this game, Nier: Automata, and I knew I’d need to check it out, because everything I was hearing about it made it sound more and more intriguing. Everyone seems to think that this game is true art. People who don’t think video games are art think this game is art. People who love video games keep saying this is the most complex and rich piece they’ve ever seen. So w...

2019-05-20 18:54:04 +0000 UTC View PostHi Everyone. We’re doing Coen Brothers again today, as we will be, by my calculations, until the end of time. Today we’re looking at a funny little project called The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. If this were a straightforward narrative I’d feel pretty comfortable just talking about this without feeling the need to synopsize, because synopsising is boring as hell. However, as this is an anth...

I’ve noted before how memes, tropes and patterns can strongly signify, or be used to spot, an in-group, and to some degree how these patterns work to actually reinforce that in-group. These can be patterns of things people do, or say, or consume, but they can also be things that people commonly aspire towards. 2019-05-11 18:06:00 +0000 UTC View Post
Hey pals!
The patreon rewards that I was shamefully behind on are all packaged up and going into the post ASAP! Sorry again for falling so behind!
I have an announcement about updates that mostly won't affect you guys (current patrons) but I figured I would let you know ASAP anyway.
I'm going to be reconfiguring the tiers a bit. The 1, 2, and 50 dollar tiers will remain the sa...

Thank you all SO MUCH for supporting the channel. Your support really means the world to me, and knowing that you guys are out there trying to make things easier for me makes things easier for me on its own, even besides your financial support. Thank you so, so much.

Hello ladies and gentlemen welcome. Today I’m going to be mixing it up and reviewing something I don’t usually look at. Manga. The upside of looking at a medium I don’t usually explore is that as I don’t even like manga you can be sure I’ll be completely and totally objective.
My first note before we look at specific examples is that manga books, compared to western...

So I'm pretty pissed bc I've been working on this little video for a while about a show I really like. I'm working on ways to get it past the algorithm (praise the algorithm) but in the mean time, here's a link if you want to just download the vid so you can see it!

Hey everyone. Today I’m writing this: a video. This video is a video, not any of my usual three things. Usually I make essays, mini-essays, and shitposts. This isn’t a shitpost, but it also isn’t any kind of essay. This video is a video.
So what is this video about? Well, it’s about three conversations that I keep having that really piss me off. These three things are...
2019-04-07 16:45:44 +0000 UTC View PostThere are small things that I found strange coming into Horizon Zero Dawn that kept putting me off liking it: the facial animations are strange and uncanny; the child you play as for the first ten minutes is crazy ugly; the dialogue can be an acquired taste - several (hundred) times in the first act it is repeated that Aloy and Rost are not just “outcasts”, but, “outcast,...

Section 1: Introduction
Spyro the Dragon is a late 90s and early 00s platforming collectathon, considered by many to be a childhood classic. Many of you watching will have this charming little purple man run around on your home TV screens in your youth, and some of you will even have welcomed him back last year when he was revived in the Spyro: Reignited tril...

So there’s this comic I really like, and I read it a long time ago but I know I really liked the way it reconfigured the superhero genre to show people’s powers not as advantages but as big problems in their lives, and created these really interesting familial relationships that just feel incredibly real, and had something going on under the surface that I couldn’t quite expl...
2019-02-28 21:17:29 +0000 UTC View PostI don’t usually do game reviews, so I don’t really know how to do them, but I really want to review this game because it’s great and they were nice enough to invite me to beta test it. I think I need some sort of yardstick to measure against. Let’s compare it against the greatest game ever made: Shadow the Hedgehog 2005.
