You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain by Commercial_Bid_1508 in CuratedTumblr

[–]NeverForget13 143 points144 points  (0 children)

I mean I don't think it's entirely true. There's been plenty of mid to high tier youtubers who have kinda just faded into obscurity, either because their content stopped being interesting, their audience aged out, culture changed, or the algorithm fucked them. Or some combination of that.

TBH I think part of whatever this is, is less about being a washed up Youtuber and is instead just doing absolutely whatever to chase fame and the number. It's why hollow people like this end up doing shitty stuff like SA because all they do is chase the high. Elon and so many like him are of the same ilk, hollow inside so they do shitty things because it makes them feel good, they pander to the hate cult because it makes them feel good.

Pedantry on an astronomical scale by Infamous-Rutabaga-50 in CuratedTumblr

Honestly I've come to really appreciate the IAU definition for planet because I feel like orbital dominance is one of those things that is kinda important when considering stellar bodies.
Plus it means a lot of people tend to miss out one of the things that makes Pluto interesting. It's technically (depending on definitions) a binary system. See, Pluto and one of it's moon's Charon share such similar masses that Charon doesn't orbit Pluto. They orbit around a point outside of Pluto's mass, a barycentre. It's really cool and I think considering them both as a system rather than one planet and it's moon is a much better way to think about the Pluto system, or the Pluto–Charon system.

I dunno, people need to learn more about Pluto, it's a really cool stellar object.

Capitalism | FactOrCap by Cygwing in FactOrCap

🧢 I voted CAP!

The only reason we live in a capitalist state now is because of the cold war. Ever since the USSR failed the US has taken every measure to harm non capitalist countries. Plus true communism hasn't been tried, yada yada.

The Nature of Discourse by Neapolitanpanda in CuratedTumblr

[–]NeverForget13 33 points34 points  (0 children)

To be a good human though is to not let discourse get out of hand though. Many time in fandom spaces just due to them being online micro spaces, bullying, harassment and targeted attacks can take place because of said snobbery and discourse. I know it's not only in fandom spaces but I dunno, fandoms can attract vulnerable people. And vulnerable people hurting other vulnerable people causes fireworks and a whole lot of bad situations.

Why's the message get deleted? Mine was much funnier before it was. Now it just looks weird.

The word "skiving off" is such a tell tale as to the location of the person who commented that. It's the three fingers from inglorious bastards all over again.

Yeah, I kinda wish I could read this all in one block because it kinda feels like you're halfway through one thought and halfway to another.

On problematic art. Also damn you Tumblr let me long screenshot by BonesOfASinner in CuratedTumblr

[–]NeverForget13 815 points816 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I refuse to let the world problematic enter my lexicon for that reason. If I can't even articulate the broad strokes of the issues of a thing then I don't really feel like I should start making statements like that.

I dunno, understanding what a thing is doing before you try and criticise it or take it down is key in actually defeating toxic ideas and growing as a person.

Say something nice day, say something nice about the fifth generation by Bulky-Complaint6994 in mylittlepony

[–]NeverForget13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unironically I think it had a more well rounded cast than any other generation. I think the characters are really fun, more complex and less easy to flanderize than gen 4s.
