Some people claim to be anti cum, yet they're only alive because of cum. Curious!

Look, if you don't want me to complain that a video is too long, then don't post a video essay that would be six paragraphs of content if it were written down but instead has been fluffed out to thirty minutes. shrug-outta-hecks

[–] [email protected] 27 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Oh my goodness yes. If something can be presented well in a blog post, it damn well should be.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 10 months ago

The real MVPs will do both a blog post and a video essay

[–] [email protected] 30 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What if I like there being a visual element and perhaps the occasional comedic aside?

Video essays should never just be someone reading into a screen. Then it is no different from a regular essay. The 'video' part must play a central role for the video essay to have a valid reason of existence.

This meme is revisionism. People here are just as ready to shank each other over philosophy, history, economics, etc. as they are to do it over media bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 10 months ago

Those debates can get nasty but at least people generally have something of substance to say and common ground is often found.

The most smuglord and nasty ass comments I've seen here have been in media debates. It often descends into people making mean assumptions about each other based on their media tastes, like people assuming a poster must be white, or cis, or a virgin cuz they liked an anime someone else doesn't.

Andor is doing a heckin Leninism

[–] [email protected] 32 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Andor is good but I do get the vibe it's written by Libs who are also just military history nerds and accidentally made it seem Leninist cuz they read a bunch of shit about Che and the Bolsheviks before hand.

[–] [email protected] 46 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Accuratly portraying history is doing a communism. You dont have to intentionally do a communism to do a communism.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago (5 children)

True but idk how accurate we can call it till it's over

[–] [email protected] 24 points 10 months ago (2 children)

They can't make the rebellion bad. It's Star Wars. They can Grey it uo a bit but we already know how things go and it's pretty clear who the good guys are and they won't be allowed to change that too much.

That's fine by me cause they're stuck with a cannon where the rebellion is absolutely the good guys. I'm certain it was by accident but it'd be pretty lib of me to judge thebintent behind something rather than the material result.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 10 months ago

Media which packs the same information into a shorter time span time takes more time to produce. So if you think about it, if you say Harris Bomb Man’s 4 hour video is boring, you’re actually saying you’re entitled to free labor

One day soon the "If I have to hear about YouTube videos being too long ONE MORE TIME!" Youtube vid by UrsineShape1000 will be 1,000 hours long. And the post on it here is the most popular thread ever. Although it eventually causes a struggle session and is shut down at a few hundred comments which is far shorter than the hoped for 1,000 comments.

Brevity is the soul of wit. A man name Wilbert Shakesman said that.

What if my goal isn't being witty but being encompassing?

The longer videos are just nice to listen to when cleaning the place or doing some other menial task

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago

If a video is less than 4 hours long I'm not watching it. You can't force me.

Oh a stryder7x video on how standing still crashes Paper Mario!
