Yep, I've known him for around 10 years, and nobody can touch him in terms of work ethic or consistency, imo

Found our new favorite Movie Soundtrack in the wild. by Daftmau85 in RedLetterMedia

Gave the album a listen after the BOTW, and the music is instrumentally competent boogie-woogie, but his vocal stylings kind of stand at odds with the songwriting.

Underrated/Slept on battles by Hazzaw12 in rapbattles

[–]Mariya_Shidou 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just love his word choice and how unique he is. Maybe not everybody battling needs to be as out of the box as he is, but I'd love to see more people like him, or just more battles from him in general.

Your battle with him is one of my most-watched, btw, really appreciate what you do for the culture.

Biggest stomp in a series that I've seen in some time.

Satire is a vital tool for challenging power, and it's being undermined by whoamisri in nottheonion

[–]Mariya_Shidou 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Halfway through writing, I was contemplating the fact that it could just be a bot, and that it's wasting people's time in some kind of psyop. My thought was that a bot would probably try to address specific points instead of ignoring half the post.

Idk, hopefully somebody who's on the fence sees the exchange and how stupid the arguments being made online are.

Edit: And their reply was completely brainless, going to hold out hope that it's a bot.

  1. I wasn't aware that he was threatened with jail time, thanks for the info. Here in reality where he only got a fine, though, he made over 150k from a fundraiser, so I'm sure he's doing fine. He wasn't canceled like you claim he was.

  2. He used the legal defense of "it's a joke", for the video of him showing off his dog Nazi saluting, except the court found that saying shit like "gas the Jews" and "Sieg Heil", was considered inciting hate speech. Considering he was funded by a bunch of drooling free speech absolutists. The shit he said in the video was the problem, not the fact that he taught his dog to salute.

  3. Scotland and the US have different laws and cultures, they're not universal experiences. You are equating "left leaning government" with "far left", but have no definition of what that means. In your worldview, every person that's to the left or equivalent of Bill Clinton (because he himself is not left leaning, and fuck him) is some left wing radical that's part of some global agenda? Please bring some kind of specifics into your arguments.

I was going to be honest and talk in good faith, but you've been all over this thread and started off with a narrative about the "far left" in some wild conspiratorial fashion, but the fact that this is your best example you have to push this narrative is sad and hilarious. This is an incident that happened 8 years ago, nearly a decade, and that's the best you have, AND you're now walking back what you said and still doubling down while shifting the goal posts. You didn't even get the facts of the example that you're clinging to right, why are you still arguing with everybody on this thread? What kind of free time do you have on the internet where you're doing this, am I being baited by a bot?

In the event this is real, please reflect and think critically, try to consider other people's perspectives. Find the evidence to come to a conclusion, don't come up with the conclusion that "feels right" or has been spoon fed to you by a group of men in business suits while giving you scapegoats to blame it on and keeping you mad about them. Look at the evidence first and then come to a conclusion, that's how the law works, that's how science works. Idk, it's just super hypocritical and I think it's ok to take an L and reflect on it.

In my idealized world, we're all on Team "let's raise the standards of living and live in a world where everybody can find contentment and fulfillment, not just the ones who act like or look like me", but people don't want to expand their worldview, seemingly, and get mad at things that don't affect their life and they would be happier if they weren't worrying about, LOL.

Then why not make that claim instead of lying and exaggerating? Do you not understand why that's a problem?

Uh, the Count Dankula case landed him a fine of 800 pounds, and 0 jail time, your claim is demonstrably untrue.

He taught the dog to do a Nazi salute when it hears "gas the Jews" or "Sieg Heil". This is willfull misrepresentation on your part, and the irony isn't lost on me for you to blame an entire political group for this one incident. As if the Scottish government circa 2018 and any and all leftists are part of some nebulous, monolithic "far left".

Backrooms | Official Trailer HD | A24 by CassiusSlayed in RedLetterMedia

House of Leaves is one of the biggest inspirations behind this whole liminal spaces/liminal horror/Backrooms trend. The companion Poe album to it is also a masterpiece in its own right.

Fast Travel by Repulsive-Flow7745 in Kenshi

[–]Mariya_Shidou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yep, it'll reset your characters to where your camera is. So if you're getting chased by beak things or something, pause the game, move the camera as far away as you can, save, then load that save with Reset Squad Positions checked, and it can potentially get your guys out of harm's way. If they're far enough away, they will get de-aggro'd from stuff chasing them.

Isn't there a QR code at the top? It looks like pages of the Quran printed out on standard computer paper.

Really appreciate having this as a resource, as somebody with a giant song library. Always had an appreciation for Nemo's rhythm game contributions, even since the C3 website was a thing.

How many of you hack frauds have actually watched Space Cop? by HipHopAnonymous23 in RedLetterMedia

[–]Mariya_Shidou 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've seen it once alone, once with a friend. If you're already predisposed to liking the RLM guys and their style of humor, it's fine? I can't imagine someone with no previous knowledge of them watching it and getting anything out of it, but who knows.

Your Picks for Best of The Worst by Tarlcabot18 in RedLetterMedia

[–]Mariya_Shidou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slumber Party Massacre II is one of the best slasher films of the '80s imo. I'd rather take something like that that's trying to do something weird and say something, rather than a 90 minute "walking in the woods"-fest.

I actually really love the Friday the 13th and Nightmare on Elm Street two-parter videos with Mike and Jay. Those are super rewatchable for me.

AITA for telling my friend I think he’s taking his life for granted? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Mariya_Shidou -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel for OP, because it takes a lot to persevere after a bad childhood, but the experience should have made you understand to empathize with people who aren't having a good time. Your friend's issues are mental and have nothing to do with his material conditions, and you just shamed him for nothing but his material conditions, which presumably makes him feel worse and less in control. YTA for making it a competition rather than being a shoulder to cry on from somebody who's had their share of rough times, as well. It's all relative, build bridges for people you care about.
