My shout-out to queer youtubers
Hbombs list was great but obviously not comprehensive. I watch a lot of video essayists and wanted to give a little love to the smaller channels that fall under the radar. Please feel free to add to this list!
let's talk about stuff/Sarah Zedig
If you've seen Jesse Gender's videos on the Matrix movies you may already be familiar with Sarah. She does excellent film and culture analysis with a lot of great conversations on paratext and outside influence in engaging with text. Her video on Tunic is one of my favorites.
youtube
Pamphleteer
No one makes videos like hers, which has the side effect making them a bit hard to describe. I will link one of my favorites which describes the disconnected temporality of being older when you discover you're queer.
youtube
Turbo Queer
Really really under watched channel. Skylar covers a lot of topics from video games, to anarchist history and modern events, to autistic life, to current politics. For a fun one check out her video on the SpongeBob strike episode.
youtube
Kaz Rowe
Kaz does a fantastic job examining modern myths and manufactured history primarily pertaining to western Europe, Victorian & Edwardian England, and 1800-1900s US. And of course, talking about historical queerness in all its ambiguities and evolutions. I highly recommend their video on Weimar Germany.
youtube
drapetomania
drapetomania interrogates the politics of low class and high class art and entertainment from a queer and Black perspective. Their art history videos alone cover many angles of white supremacist history I haven't seen anyone else discuss and I'm very excited to see more from them. They are also a very under viewed channel that more people should see!
youtube
I am error
Evelynn's channel primarily discusses video games in a presentation style and voice most similar to Action Button reviews. There's something just a bit more personal here though. I hesitate to say cozy since that word has a bit of an infantilizing connotation, maybe comforting is closer. She puts an immense amount of thought and empathy into the experience of playing video games and the personal narratives we build with them.
youtube
Swolesome
For more transmasc perspectives there's Swolesome. He has a lot of interesting insights into the more traditionally masculine and "broish" communities like fitness as well as commentary on recent trans issues.
youtube
Shonalika
Music, disability, and aggressively non-binary. Their video on gender presentation in heavy metal was really insightful. I would also check out the video "Why I Wear Gloves" for more insight on invisible disabilities.
youtube
Vivian Strange
Vivian delights in being a bit of a contrarian- something I really appreciate. She's probably going to challenge you and you're probably going to disagree at times, which is what makes her channel so important. Her video on Marquis De Sade is powerful and a must watch (if you can stomach the subject material, although I would encourage you to try). I haven't seen her most recent video on Saw yet but I am extremely excited to.

Hey so like if you enjoyed HBomberguy's new video, you should check out the companion video by music reviewer Todd In The Shadows, where he talks about the non-plagiarism aspects of a certain person covered in the video.
I've linked it below; I highly recommend watching HBomb's video all the way through first if you haven't done so already, and especially to go in blind.

the video everyone’s talking about is by video essayist hbomberguy called “plagiarism and you(tube)” which for lack of a better term exposed multiple fairly popular youtube creators as plagiarists. very good video highly recommend & u should check out hbomb’s other stuff as well 👍🏻
Oh that's cool. I haven't really ever been into video essays honestly-- tried back in highschool but it wasn't really for me.

Weekly Reccomendation: The youtube channel Hbomberguy
Do you know who Tommy talerico is? And more importantly are those claims substantiated? Hbomberguy delves into topics like video games, why vcr made movies scarier, and the nonexistant war on Christmas. Highly recommended for quick wit and an astonishing ability to commit to the bit (sir put on some clothes and stop pouring soy milk on your head. jk I love it). Are you a filthy commie? Alternatively are you left leaning enough to enjoy making fun of idiots like Ben Shapiro and Alex Jones? Here's a video with one random second from each video from your boy Hbomb to show the unhingedness. I reccomend Harriton Splimbly if any of the above intrigued you. On my frequent rewatch list along with other folks who do video essays, good to listen along to while doing something else (though watch the videos first for info on the screen. The listen along is for the rewatch. The 87th one. Honestly embarrassing how close to memorized I have some of the older videos)

my mcc season 2 highlights!
these are my favourite povs from season 2! im quite focused on the whole mcc viewing experience, so there will be whole vods in here, as well as enjoyable and/or high scoring individual and team performances, alongside some funny moments. keep in mind i am a jordan and enjoyer, and i expect a lot of this to be jordan and jojo focused!! (tumblr has a ten link limit per post, so the last three povs do not have a link, but they're all easy to find as they are recent as of now! just up on yt)
yellow15 is honestly one of my personal favourite teams ever. it took one game, ace race, for them to move up to 2nd from 6th, and is one of the best scoring ace races of all time. really nice teamwork from then on, and even if they got swept in db, they had great comms and lots of funny moments together. 
youtube
purple16 OHHH MY GOD this team was crazy especially in the last moments of sg- i would highly recommend the whole pov to see their bm dominance and everything else too! This events sg was one of my faves so i recommend sylvees pov of that as well, its so chaotic but funny to watch in terms of context for the rest of the game!! 
youtube
yellow16’s sot was one of my favs this season, with it being a unique team that surprisingly did well together! hbomb was a runner whilst he helped ponk who was sandkeeper on his first ever mcc, leading yellow into first place with 5k coins!! An insane run, with funny moments from george, reacted to by hbomb in his vod reviews. 
youtube
Mcc17 - this mcc is so special to me, as it is to so many other people, like the mcsr and hermitcraft community on here!! I highly recommend you watch both orange and pinks whole povs. In terms of team composition, experience and strengths, they were so different, so they had completely different feeling mccs. orange17 were Chilling and smoothly working their way to db, communicating with ease and trusting in their experience and each other.(petes ace race was so SMOOTH here too)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5W_S4dJoFaM&t=5182s
pink17 really went up against every obstacle to make it to db, even co-sandkeeping from zeuz and vixella to manage sot, and to top it all off a crazy sg performance from them! 
youtube
Aqua17 sg- now this one. Is not great but their pov when facing pink in skybattle is very funny
Aqua17 sot - vault clutch from jordan that got them to 2nd place! well co-ordinated :) 
youtube
rising was really nice, and i wasnt expecting to love it so much tbh! The energy around the event felt so different, with 40 contestants that were barely known to the community at the time. So many people spent hours practicing and gained whole followings from the event, notably the orange ocelots(eloise and owen now work for noxcrew, and bekyamons just been introduced to the main roster of mcc players, alongside all 3 of them being more well known ccs) yoshinom and makoinari. Owen has a great video about his time during rising that is really well put together and is so worth watching! 
youtube
pink was an absolute treasure of a team, so wonderful to watch them all pop off respectively, especially jojo and nestorio! Jojo had a great hero moment in the events most chaotic sot, and this was my first time watching nestorio, who was so sweet and positive during the event. Pink had a really lovely db too:) 
youtube
pink22 obviously. OBVIOUSLY this is here it was so crazy from their pov too. 4 corners of the community unexpectedly worked so well together, had GREAT comms, especially in pkt and meltdown! A really nice sot, as well as a clutch first place in tgttos from the one and only oli the orion sound!!
youtube
THE GOLDEN GALS OH them them them them them them them them them them i am so insane about them really. such a highlight to not only get an womens team BUT little did we know that this was the beginning of this being regular in mcc!! sylvees space race reaction was so good as well as her and jojo celebrating at the end of their run! It was so cute and i think my fave moment all season!! Jojos ace in bb, overall crazy teamwork and good vibes from the whole team. soo so good 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5N1U3Wciqo0
cyan24 had such a nice run up to the event. this season kinda sees the end of practice streams but jojo caught on to how much they help, because its about the Bonding not the Minecraft Practice! they prepared so much and it really payed off, especially with their sot!!
green25 just. So good i am so happy they won obviously they are really really strong, but they deserved it i think. There is no other pov for 25, its green till the end. Jojo continues to lead her team in such a nice relaxed way i love her
teal28 i cant believe jordan won AGAIN and its with some of The people Ever for him. Punz from yellow15(remember them) and sneeg from cyan18 and blue23(both close third places) and jimmy alllll the way back from blue3, which was the first ever 9/9 bb, and second time jordan lost a db. It felt like full circle moment for jordan to win with these three, and for teal to SWEEP DB omg. 1) jordan himself had been swept so much, and he had been swept in mcc15 with punz and in mcc3 with jimmy. 2) jimmys 1V3 i have never screamed such a scream it was so impressive
red28 crazy little sot from them to finish off the season. Jojo does it again my little shining star i love her sm i could talk about her forever and ever and ever but thats for another post

Me and the DSMP
When did I join the fandom?
A bit hard to remember, but I believe I started watching around the end of the very First L’Manberg War, for their independence. So around August of 2020. Who was the first member I knew?
HBomb94, surprising I know. But way back in 2013-2015 I watched a Minecraft YouTuber called ParkerGames (hilarious guy, go watch his old stuff.) He was really good friends with Hbomb and did a whole bunch of stuff with him (Minecraft, Vlogs, challenges etc.) I was ecstatic at the idea of him joining.
How did I find the DSMP?
I saw Dream in MrBeast’s “100 players vs. best Minecraft player” video, I wanted to see if he was legit and started watching him. Then I started watching DSMP around then, I’m not entirely sure what exactly I watched to get me into it.
Favourite Ship?
Honestly? Awesamdreamberries, (Awesamdude, Dream and Fruitberries) which I KNOW isn’t a real ship, but I love my green boys I can’t help it. Awesamdream is top tier.
Favourite Character?
Awesamdude, incredible depth. Many possibilities and not a main-main character, Sam may not be the best actor but he definitely kicks ass in lore. He brings his all to the table, and doesn’t back down. When he’s in lore, he’s focused. That’s something I admire a lot in him.
Favourite Fandom?
Honestly, love Sam’s fandom. He may be my favourite character, but his fandom’s so wholesome and chill. There’s very little anarchy, which I see a lot in others. But also, Sam’s fandom isn’t chaotic. It’s definitely a place to be when you’re feeling down or sick, or if you want someplace to deeply discuss lore. It’s not for everyone, but I highly recommend it if you’re feeling like that.
Someone you wish would join the SMP? Or an underrated MCYT
BoffyYT, I say no more. Incredible, incredible character. Lore would absolutely eat him up, since his past in MC, and he knows Tommy. But if he didn’t join, I still highly recommend his content. For comparison, he’s a bit like a mix of Technoblade, Tommy, and Dream. But with his own twist to it. I won’t spoil his content ideas, but if you want a good laugh and a great time I’d watch him. Starting out I’d suggest watching his “Sleep Deprived Minecraft Shenanigans” video.
Favourite Arc?
Not entirely sure, so many moments that members absolutely shined like no tomorrow.
Favourite Derivakat Song?
Revived or Ain’t No Crying. Kat’s voice fought those powerful instrumentals, and the music either rode along with her fierceness or pushed back which made something incredible. Awesome work Kat :D
Anything Else?
On Ao3, I extremely suggest you go read “Protecting The Traumatised Youth” by spookyserpent and it’s sequel “To Heal Is to Live.” Basically, it’s like “what would happen if Sam got off his ass and fixed everything?” Spoiler, he fixes everything. :)

Ok, basics of Soul Eater. This is a world where people can be born with the ability to transform into magical weapons, known as Demon weapons. They can come to this school called the DWMA (Death Weapon Meister Academy) and find a partner who’s able to wield them, called a meister. If their soul wavelengths are compatible, they’ll become a pair. These weapon-meister pairs are then tasked with going out into the world and fighting off kishin eggs, which are people who have strayed onto the path of evil by eating human souls. If they aren’t hunted down and eliminated, they will eventually form into a kishin – a creature of pure madness that would destroy the world.
There are also Witches, beings of magic who are kind of like a third party – some want the kishin to be revived because it causes chaos, but others are chill and actually on the side of the DWMA. Witches are important because their souls are the key to a Demon weapon awakening their true form, and gaining extra powers. Defeating a witch and consuming their soul makes the weapon into a Death Scythe, a weapon powerful enough to be wielded by Death himself, the god of the world.
For my AU, I’m just taking the premise of the world and replacing the characters with DSMP/MCYT characters, so I won’t explain much there. Great show, would recommend highly, it’s on Netflix, read the manga as well if you’re disappointed by the ending of the anime.
Anyways, I’d like to use more MCYT characters than just DSMP peeps, like some Hermitcraft folks, but I know nothing about them really, so I just have DSMP stuff for now.
Phil is Death, because I can’t help but make him immortal in every AU I make. He’s the one who determines who has started to go down the path of the kishin and makes the order for them to be taken out. (Sounds kinda intense, but in this universe souls of people like this actually look different to healthy human souls).
Dream and George are a meister-weapon pair. George is a Demon Axe, and they are classified as a Three-Star pair (the highest ranking a meister can achieve, and second only to being a Death Scythe for a weapon.)
Techno is also a three-star meister, although his situation is a little different. He doesn’t wield a Demon weapon, but instead he wields a legendary sword called Harpe, which is a shapeshifting weapon that can take different forms. (So, in the series, they have Excalibur, who is this really powerful sword that anyone is compatible with, wavelength wise, but he himself is really freaking annoying so nobody can stand using him as a partner. I wanted to give Techno something different, but I wanted to tie in his connection with Greek mythology, so I created my own legendary weapon. Harpe is Perseus’s sword in the mythology, what he used to decapitate Medusa. Harpe is the same as Excalibur in that it can match anyone’s wavelength, but instead of just being annoying like Excalibur, Harpe allows Techno to hear the voices of the dead. Wherever he goes, there are people who speak to him, and usually it’s just idle chatter and he pretends he can’t hear them, but they seem to know that he can because he always seems to attract them wherever he goes.) Harpe usually takes the form of a sword, but it can also become a trident, a spear, and a pickaxe.
Then there are the two-star pairs, who are a level above the regular students and able to take on more dangerous missions. There’s Sapnap and his two weapons Karl and Quackity, who wield fire and water/ice (not sure yet) respectively. Sapnap and Karl were partners first, before Quackity came to the school, and he was a menace. Sapnap is a very powerful meister, but also very destructive due to his partner being fire and him not knowing how to hold back sometimes. When Quackity became a student and the teachers learned that he was a water weapon, he was begged to partner with them to try and reduce the amount of damage Sap does on lessons, and generally chill them out. Of course, the teachers didn’t account for Quackity being just as chaotic, if not more, than his partners, and thus begun the most chaotic trio at the school.
Bad and Skeppy are partners, and originally I was gonna have Skeppy as the meister with a reluctant Bad who gets pulled into Skeppy’s pranks, but then I remembered that IRL!Bad is a badass who throws knives and shoots guns and stuff, so I changed it so Bad’s the meister and Skeppy’s his knife weapon. Bad still gets dragged around with Skeppy’s shenanigans though.
Punz and Ant are partners, mostly because I needed them to be in the AU somehow and they both needed a partner. Honestly don’t know much about either of them, and I don’t know what kind of weapon Ant is, but they’re strong enough to be two-star.
Then there are the one-star meisters, which is the ranking all students start as. You have Tubbo and Tommy, Wilbur and Fundy, Niki and Jack, Puffy and HBomb, and Purpled and Hannah(hannahxxrose).
To the surprise of most people who meet them, Tubbo is actually the meister in their pair. Which makes it very funny when Tommy’s being his usual bombastic, irritating self and picks a fight with another pair who they may not know, and when they get ready to fight Tommy calls over this innocent looking kid and starts glowing in his transformation, becoming a crossbow that can shoot explosive shots (like a firework crossbow).
Fundy is an interesting case, because he is actually a Witch (using the fact that Fundy’s character on the SMP is ftm trans, and because witches in this world are animal-themed and it just made too much sense with his fox connection. He has ears that he hides with a hat and a tail that he hides.) He’s partnered with Wilbur, who is a set of oversized gauntlets that have claws at the end. Yes, he gets furry jokes, no, he’s not amused, but he deals.
Niki and Jack are the weapon I’m probably most excited about. Jack can transform into a big shield, Steven Universe style, but it also has another ability. Niki can strike it with a mallet in different ways, and the sound that emanates from it has a different affect on her enemies/their attacks. She can ring it so that it resonates at a frequency that can break glass, can stun her enemies, etc. A lot of people think she’s weak or not as good as others because her weapon is defensive, but she just smiles and knows that if they ever see her fight, they’ll think differently.
Puffy and HBomb is half a joke, but also serious. HBomb is some sort of spiked whip/lasso, but many people joke that he’s a glorified fishing rod because Puffy once used him for that and he never lived it down. (Because Puffy’s a captain, but also because HBomb has his podcast and it just seemed to fit). Puffy is also a sheep witch, and bonds with Fundy over it since nobody else at school knows about their heritage (given that Witches are usually an enemy of the DWMA)
Purpled and Hannah, I will admit, are only a pair because they’re both bedwars players and it seemed appropriate? No idea what kind of weapon Hannah would be though.
Real quick, here are some other character roles. Ponk is the school nurse, Sam is a technician who is supposedly working to make sure the school is functioning, maintaining the old pipes and stuff, but he has a lot of secret work that Death has him do on the side of that. Alyssa and Callahan are a Death Scythe pair (Alyssa as a meister) who work on another continent and aren’t ever around, cause I thought it would be funny.
Ranboo is a special case of being his own meister? If anyone reading knows the series, he’s basically like Crona. But instead of madness from the black blood, it’s his enderwalk state that he eventually gets snapped out of in an epic battle with Tommy/Tubbo. He has two non-demon weapon pickaxes that he fights with, as well as the enderman powers from the SMP, and some mild telepathy.
In terms of other MCYT, I don’t know much about the hermits but most seem like they would be good teachers? The only one I was told had to be a meister was Falsesymmetry, because she’s a pvp god. And her weapon is Rendog, because I was told he’s supportive of her and also goes feral if needed? So there’s that. Ren is a transforming weapon, it’s a bow that can disconnect at the middle and become two swords connected by a magic chain that can extend as far as needed.
I have no idea what to do with Eret or Schlatt, they feel like they should have important roles but the “corrupt politician” or “the traitor who became king” bits don’t work super well in this universe. Well, traitor does, but I also love Eret and want to give them a good ending. And I could easily use Schlatt’s normal video persona rather than his SMP character, because that would be kinda funny and not something I see as often. - 🐉
Oooooooh. This is super interesting. This is super interesting. I really love this concept already!

Hello
Here’s my personal top 3 MCC teams
1. MCC9 BLUE BATS- FALSE, REN, HBOMB, FRUIT
Listen. I absolutely lost my mind when I saw this team, because I knew that they were gonna come out of nowhere and fuck people up. And I was absolutely right. The pure poetic justice they served the entire tournament was epic, and their absolute SWEEP in SG gave me enough serotonin to last a year. Not to mention the reverse sweep in Dodgebolt and their overall A+ team chemistry. I consider myself an eloquent person, but for once words can’t describe my love for this team.
2. MCC4 (?) PURPLE PANDAS- TECHNO, PHILZA, WILBUR, TOMMY
This is a fan favourite for obvious reasons. I am still astounded by their dynamic and their ability to top the leaderboards while still joking around and bantering like normal. Definitely one of the most entertaining POVs I’ve watched. Sadly they’re now considered WAYYY too OP to team again (and for good reason), but we’ve heard that Scott might consider it again.
3. MCC1 PURPLE PANDAS- KRTZYY, KARA, BURREN, MICHEAL
Criminally forgotten in every sense of the word. Somehow people are still sleeping on each member individually despite their performance in the very first MCC, where they had absolutely no clue what they were doing. No strats, no VODS, no practice maps, nothing- just quick thinking and teamwork. Highly recommend everyone watches this video, because it’s the most glorious POV I’ve ever seen. Thanks Dave.
Honourable mentions-
MCC9 PINK PARROTS- JOEL, INTHELITTLEWOOD, SOLIDARITY, GRIAN
MCC12 GREEN GUARDIANS- WILBUR, GEORGE, PHILZA, TAPL

Me, knowing I’ll do nothing but play Pathologic 2...
Oh man, I HAVE TO play it. Hbomb’s video was so perfectly timed, bc I’d just given up on Sul Matul’s playthrough of the original game (audio issues) and COMPLETELY forgot about Pathologic 2. 10/10 can��t wait to get hecked up this Thanksgiving
YE!!!!!! P2 only has the Haruspex version right now but it’s heCKING LIT and I can’t recommend it highly enough if you like to suffer.

Video
youtube
In this video, the host, H.Bomberguy, goes through a video by the Youtuber Armoured Skeptic and demonstrates how the ideological bias of the latter caused him to make a poor argument against Bill Nye’s show. This sort of thing is not unique, but what is sort of rare is that you do not get the sense that this video is a defense of the show, so much as a showcase of the negative effect that bias has on your arguments. In a follow up video here, HBomb goes through some more obviously biased people, and introduces other viewpoints than his own. I highly recommend this video series to anyone who argues on the internet.
