Ok outcome but why start with attacking someone
Sometimes people are struggling and lash out, then when they don’t get the fight they were expecting they deflate and see how foolish they were being, we’re all just human
…how dare you…
e’re all just human
Speak for yourself…
Well it’s kind of complex but the TL;DR: is ‘The world is shit, punching down makes some people feel better in the short term’
Or alternatively: It’s hard to be depressed when you’re angry.
It’s hard to feel depressed when you’re angry. Just cause you yell at people doesn’t mean you’re not also depressed.
I’ll even nuance it further: depression mutes all feelings, anger is one of the first emotions to come back to you.
That, and also it’s much easier to offload on internet strangers than actual people with reactions and feelings (as you can’t see them in a timely manner). Which applies even for non-depressed folks.
Let’s compare your wikipedia degree with my half a century of direct personal experience, a minor in dev psych, diagnosed chronic depression AND EDS, and add on top of that an autist’s special interest obsession with biology.
People like you post this kind of pithy meaningless bullshit all the time on the internet to seem wise, and it works on everyone except people who have directly experience what you are spewing shit about.
Depression is like alcoholism, it never goes away, you just get better at managing it
Where did that come from? The person you were replying to was not aggressive or hostile at all.
I understand that this may be a sensitive and personal topic but they weren’t acting in any way that deserved this sort of response.
Sockpuppet reported, this is targeted harasment
Ah, I see now. Have a good weekend 👋
All that… to say you agree with me? Are you trying to stave away depression?
I always find it amusing when people respond to a rebuttal with ‘oh you agree with me’
It’s literally the laziest reply
… Says the guy using a pseudonym and the default profile picture
A retraction and apology on the internet? This is a once in a century meme
I’ve personally never understood facecam game streaming in the first place. I don’t care about your expressions. Then vtubing became popular and it was the same complaint, but more.
I have a feeling it’s about copyrighting content. If you don’t show your own face/voice, you’re just streaming game footage which belongs to the publisher.
I don’t really watch streamers except for Jerma. But if you watch Jerma, you’re not really watching for competitive gameplay as much as him just always being a comedian like this
I imagine people watching vtubers it’s the same idea, where it’s less about the gameplay and more about comedy (and probably much more horny)
I can say with all of my being that I am not the target audience for this sort of content. It’s fine for others to enjoy it but I never will. Vocal jokes and overreactions are interesting, but I’ve never been a fan of funny faces and whatnot.
I was mostly positing my reason for avoiding facecam streamers to add my perspective, but I phrased it poorly. But I appreciate yours as well!
Totally makes sense. Everyone has what they enjoy. I think as long as nobody’s hurting someone then “don’t yuck someone’s yum” is a good rule of thumb.
I imagine people watching vtubers it’s the same idea, where it’s less about the gameplay and more about comedy
Personally what I like about live streamers is, it’s someone giving you an opportunity to pay attention to them, see them having fun, get to know things about them, and root for them. But the streamers I watch are vtubers because looking at real people’s faces is uncomfortable and unpleasant to me, and I really like animation.
(and probably much more horny)
my conspiracy theory is that there are actually no vtuber fans and it’s actually all gooners
see, i don’t get vtubers because the whole point is the expressions, i’m there to see the person get stomped by a massive skeleton and make a funny face
Why can people be ugly in this goddamn fucking earth. it’s just so cruel.
I feel like lookism is not talked about enough, people are extremely toxic when it comes to appearance
…right here, this is the mary kay rep…
can you explain what you mean ?
…mary kay cosmetics is a pyramid scheme for making housewives feel the need to be pretty…
I’m more so thinking me and not housewives
good on yer, mate
The energy I strive for
