I like how this thread is a bunch of people who haven't and probably won't watch this video (myself included of course)

They say true love is when you are perfectly content doing nothing together

I know what I'm doing for the next 3 hours.

Watching Star Trek

[–] [email protected] 65 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

So I'm actually trying to watch it unlike the rest of y'all you dorks.

She like... barely talks about Twilight, so far it's been 90% her pseudo-intellectual musing on romance. Which granted she's pretty good at pseudo-intellectual musing, I've def listened to less interesting pseudo-intellectual musings, but it is just musings.

Edit: there's a joke in there about how the left needs to "focus on purging counter revolutionary Vaushites." Which I got a snicker out of.

Honestly, like most long video essays there's some interesting tidbits of info but you have to Wade through a lot of unnecessary bs to get to it.

Very few people make a tight video over 30 minutes. It's almost always full of ramblings, distractions, or jokes. And the longer the video, the better those things need to be to keep me onboard.

I wish there were more like Shaun. He makes a short joke, then moves on to the next point

Thank you for the report. I sure as hell am not going to watch it, but there is something that wiggles at the back of my brain that wonders how glaring and rank her increasing lib-ness has become now. From what you say, it sounds like it's just another run-of-the-mill lib-leaning (and overlong) video essay.

She is the perfect embodiment of how getting rich turns you into a liberal.

[–] [email protected] 50 points 7 months ago

I think she was always a liberal

[–] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

She was raised by a doctor and a professor. She attended Berkeley and Georgetown. She was always comfortable and was always a liberal.

Is this any good, or just more self-indulgence by contra?

[–] [email protected] 33 points 7 months ago

The self indulgentce is the point

[–] [email protected] 29 points 7 months ago

she hasn't made anything good in years tbh, everything she does now is self-indulgence

[–] [email protected] 43 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is Contra releasing a new video bi yearly now.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 7 months ago

It's to go with the lighting.

why do people care about this

[–] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago (4 children)

Because I'm practicing drawing fundamentals and having some background noise / the illusion of company is nice.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 7 months ago

It's entertaining and the sets and costumes are pretty great usually. And I like the characters.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Are her videos getting longer because hbomberguy's videos have gotten longer or...?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 7 months ago

We must not allow a longform gap!

[–] [email protected] 41 points 7 months ago

Still waiting for her "moving Biden left video"

[–] [email protected] 39 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

she spoke with Satan's grandmother Hillary Rodham Clinton, so she's not welcome here

[–] [email protected] 36 points 7 months ago
[–] [email protected] 35 points 7 months ago

I prefer not to

[–] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago

This really Contras my Points

[–] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago

Yay, ignorant YouTube loser releases new 3 hour inane and pseudointellectual video. My favorite

[–] [email protected] 30 points 7 months ago (5 children)

It is crazy how principled this site will try and act at times, then watch this bigoted fan of war crimes.

remeber when she used to not make navel gazey content

[–] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago (6 children)

once your videos are longer than like 30 minutes you should consider being a streamer instead because you're clearly incapable of editing things down

The time honored tradition of Hexbear complaining about how long a video is while watching a 9 hour no commentary playthrough of Fatal Frame 2

And the other time honored tradition of Not Caring about a YouTuber enough to post about how much they Dont Care so that others can see that they Dont Care

The new Contra game looks like shit btw. Likely due to having a budget of nothing.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago
