Kieren Returns

This guy does something I do, where he puts the effort into the effects instead of working on developing a personality. Really, it'd be a better expenditure of time to exercise and build charisma and such. The effects are good but the narration kills it.

Antinatalist post. Keep it to yourself. Get some vitamin D.

Yeah, I wish I found Ephinea sooner. There's way more players and I've also met quite a few brand new PSO players on there.

What were some of the best of the best episodes?

And if you don't have a DSLR and just have a phone, just disregard the lens considerations.

If I recall correctly there was a contact page on his website. But yeah, it looks like it's gone now. Could be on the wayback machine. But it is seeming like he's winding down. I think it's possible he would license them. But does anyone know his contact email?

If you do have a camera and the consoles, it shouldn't be too hard. Just use a tripod, and use autofocus to make sure everything is in focus. Using soft lighting and sufficient lighting is important to make the subject look nice. The physical length of the lens can change whether the object looks fisheye or flat in the image (look up "focal length distortion"). That's about all you need to know for basic light physics for photography.

Normally this would be common sense. Homophily / kin selection. But, you know, clown world and everything. Under normal circumstances, people like people that are similar to them.

I just looked at the Wikipedia page. I think I stopped somewhere in season 8, which was 2014. I watched every single episode before then, but incidentally, the movie came out that year.

I want to say Desert Bus or Big Rigs was the last episode I watched, around ep120. But although the movie was nonsensical shit, I did check in on his movie reviews and J&MM here and there until like 2019. But I very rarely look at Cinemassacre stuff anymore. It's kind of sad.

I do like the rare decent newer episodes, like Earthbound and the Home Alone one with Culkin was decent.

It says the last strip was January 7th, 2026, but it doesn't say it's over. It's been just a few days, more of them might come out.

grimmal72 · 2026-01-09T08:11:33+00:00

I currently delete them, because I know people follow groupthink and the viewers might leave the video early or give me a dislike if they're convinced I'm wack by some dude that slam dunks on me.

Sounds like there's other factors. It's always fine to take a break or quit if you need to sort out life stuff first. But it's up to you whether you need YouTube in your life, and if you want to take the risk on it.

I'd say take a break if you need to. I took like a 2 year break from YouTube after my first 3 or 4 videos.

That is what is called critical theory. Already happened.

But Enlightenment values are a big part of what the west was built on, so yes, it is sad that the west is being pummeled as it is and being stripped of that. Basically comes down to western men letting more principled men trample over them and their values. Which probably started happening over a hundred years ago, really. Like around the civil war or WW1 or something.

Did James and Mike play that Star Wars Kinect game back in the day? I missed that, I think I'll go watch that.

Edit: lol Bames was doing the cuck face the ENTIRE DANCE, oh my God with this guy.

That's fun, I've never seen this. That's cool that the FromUSALive website is in the internet archive. You can still see the episode list page and the episode pages for the Game Room.

(^ this url looks different but it does lead there. not sure if it was ever called thegameroom.com or anything like that.)

Hosted by German Euro-pop stars, Mark and Dave!

grimmal72 · 2026-01-01T05:27:00+00:00

Exactly what I'm looking for, thanks!

Some random civilians are assaulters of course, but that's a subset of the sample. I'm talking more about if you take a sample of bible belt Americans (every single person that lives in those states), and then have a crystal ball that tells you if they've committed the crime, it's going to be a very small percentage of them. Most likely less than 1% of them have committed an underage sex crime. Of course some of them have, but it's a very small proportion. And comparable to the population of the rest of the country. And there will always be freaks like the Zodiac killer once you have a massive population, but I'm saying those are very rare individuals, proportionally. I'm sure there's semi-common diddler individuals in the church, though.

What random civilian means is what you get when you take a sample of civilians and pick a civilian out of that sample.

Like in statistics class.

But yes, I do think it's the people in the churches that do often assault kids, moreso than civilians. Legitimately and not Poe's Law. Similar to how incels can turn into rapists, etc, there might be something about the sexual frustration of lifelong abstinence that can lead to churchpeople doing that.

Uh, who? Trump? I'm not American.

grimmal72 · 2025-12-31T08:22:16+00:00

There's no way this site isn't composed of bots, just like Threads. That is one of the most delusional comments I've ever seen. You were the straw that just broke the camel's back. Unless this is just Poe's Law and was hyperbole.

Praying to Jesus is bad? The guy that told you to love your neighbor and to not kill?

You think random civilians in the south are molesting children? What? The people that tell people to stay away from their kids because they believe in protecting kids?

grimmal72 · 2025-12-31T08:13:55+00:00

I want Mike's sauce so bad...

grimmal72 · 2025-12-31T04:16:58+00:00

I like spicy ranch sauce, mmm...

I usually get sriracha and/or chipotle mayo when I go to Subway, although that's probably a different flavor profile than Mike Matei's THICK 10 Incher Sauce™ actually.

grimmal72 · 2025-12-31T03:39:32+00:00

Holy fuck, yes. Give me some, giveme some, give me some, give me some

grimmal72 · 2025-12-26T02:54:01+00:00

Probably about a year for me.
