People are real quick to do a complete 180 and forgive Watcher after making the most basic backtracking statement they could’ve made
Like I know the standard for YouTube apologies is fucking 6 feet in the ground but like, it’s the most basic PR statement they could’ve given
Am I glad they apologized? Yes. Do I think they regret it? Yes. Do I think it was for the reasons we hope (aka caring about the fans)? No. Do I think they were sincere about their reasoning? No.
I think it comes back to why they were willing to make this decision in the first place: money
And to the parasocial people who are fighting for their lives to defend them, just remember that they were ready to drop you and whoever wasn’t willing to dish out $6 so they could travel around the world, continue living in one of the most expensive cities in the the country, and drive their Teslas around
I don’t post art very often, and my following isn’t very big, but despite this I’ve gotten a few comments regarding the weight (?) of a few characters, and that I’m promoting obesity and fatness. This very strange, I did not want people to think I would be drawing exclusively skinny characters, thought this was clear with my first post…
I will make them fatter. <— fat promotion, let’s get this out of the way. My art my rules.
Also: AI artists + Transphobes aren’t welcome… you will get blocked… what makes you think I would like compliments from an AI artists… they mean nothing to me…. I crush you beneath my thumb…
Dan and Phil should release an otherwise normal gaming video where they make comments about their personal lives the whole time, making six in total. Each comment is wild enough to deal us monumental psychic damage but realistic enough that we can't actually disprove it. Things like Phil mentioning his boyfriend Jack, Dan telling the story of when they got drunk in LA and got married by an Elvis impersonater but got divorced the next day. That kind of thing. These are all tied into the video as well as any of their other random stories are, and they never reference how odd it is that they would reveal these things. Finally, after the endscreen would normally end, they say that they lied five times in the video. The phandom dissolves into chaos trying to figure out which one was true.
My friends BeReal went off while she was talking to me in my lab and took this little picture of me. So enjoy me in my natural habitat that I 1000% spend more time in instead of home. Anytime during the work day, 8-5, if I'm posting on here I'm literally sitting in this room avoiding work lmfao.
