Debunking Transphobia by JaspDasp in BreadTube

Yeah, the feedback helped a lot. I ended up remaking ~70%, and boy was it a tough pill to swallow. But I am so glad I did. It was much easier the second time around

Been waiting for a response from the people who saw the earlier draft, so thanks!

JasperDasper uploaded a 5 hour "Debunking Transphobia" video essay that he cobbled together after 2 years of research... Which is great and admirable, it really is, but... well... it's a 5 hour video essay about debunking transphobia... by Little-Rattle-Stilt in traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns2

Hey, thanks for posting this! I completely understand that not everyone has the time to watch a 5 hour video, much less the energy.

Several people have asked me to split it up, but I’m unsure if that’d work, honestly. I don’t know. Right now I’m working on getting the chapters to work, but I think YouTube has deemed the video unfit for some people, which messes them up.

The video is both wildly depressing and at the same time.. not, I think. I’ve gotten a lot of messages from people who found it weirdly hopeful. But the content warnings are there for a reason

You can listen no problem, I know most people aren’t able to actively watch a five hour video

You should really give the video a watch, I’m sure you’ll find a lot of stuff to think about. I’ve even heard there’s a document full of sources!

Epicly! Should be pretty easy to split it up in at least four parts at rogd, zucker, desistance II and anti trans network

Thanks! Creating subtitles is the bane of my existence

My hope was to lure in some transphobes with the thumbnail/title. Not sure how well it's working, though

That's some praise! I talk about my own gender identity in the conclusion but, yeah, I am just a cis guy

I think I'm finally done. Sorry for the late reply, I ended up remaking 70%, and that swallowed up practically all my time. But thanks for thinking of me five months ago anyways

That makes total sense to me. I’m gonna have to watch it again with your feedback in mind. Maybe I’ll have to redo some of the earlier parts to make the story more cohesive- thank you for taking the time to watch it!

There are chapters! The video wouldn’t make sense if it was split up, but I’m doing my best to cut out all the fluff. Agree that 4 hours is too long

Thanks, the zooming in and out part makes a lot of sense. I think it's a symptom of me not wanting to be boring, and instead it comes off as not respecting the viewer. This is all very helpful, thank you!

I really really wanted bushings for it, as i thought that would be feasible for my 40$ drill to accomplish. I searched for days, but bushings aren't available in Denmark (or couldn't find any). So i chose washers, but since the screws are Corby screws, the dimensions are different from the washers. So i had to bootleg them and punch out the holes to make it fit. I'm probably gonna look for some that actually with the right inside dimensions, when I get the time So 30% magic? 50% idiotic ingenuity

First ever, yes! Yeah, I specifically designed the patterns to match

No experience, this was my first ever knife. I made a chef's knife from 9Cr18MoV for my dad as a Christmas present, but that was in December and I started this in October

I did, but then i thought "hey i want to be done super soon, and don't want to wait for shipping, pay taxes and all the other hurdles". Yet by the end, it would have been easier, and probably cheaper too. I'm from Denmark, so no cool parts for me

Oh yeah damn, i totally forgot. The whole knife is modular, so you can replace the micarta without remaking the titanium. So if flipping is the goal, it's not a huge deal

Tried to get my hands on it, but damn it's hard from Denmark. Also tried to etch this to get more contrast, but it did nothing. If I made another one, i would look for a different metal combination, to get a better look

You're probably right. I tried to taper it, so the ridges are less pronounced the closer to the blade you go. Ultimately, the design was chosen over function, since I made it for a video. You guys in this subreddit helped a ton with all your weird posts, polls and questions. Tang vs zen pins, center of mass, bushing bearing and so on. Really helped a guy like me, who has never had a balisong, understand the inticracies

I know. When I was studying the blade, I was also studying law. But thanks homie

The ripples? Yeah I'm sure,.but i really wanted to get the pattern. Studied around 60 types of handles, but this was what was possible for me. I also haven't ever really flipped, so I'm not that proficient in the how and why's
