>>137395883Real question here if all 3 of the main people there are asexual what exactly constitutes cheating between Blue and Cyan?Presumably the sleep in the same bedroom but if Red and Blue spend more time in OSP that he gives to Cyan then is that it?
>>137395883I don't car about her videos.All I want is a comic of her, Jaden and Happy being made into sex slaves then eventually breeder cattle

>>137395883DID YOU KNOW LOVERCRAFT WAS A RACIST??
>>137396334
>>137395883I want to hug Red and run my hands through her hair, but her avatar not IRL
>>137395883Red's voice is very soothing. Could listen to it all day.
>>137396358Check your spelling faggot
>>137395883I like her myth stuff, but the videos where she's just reading out a TV tropes page are pretty lame.
>>137395883I wanna draw her with huge boobs
>>137396167>Jaden and HappyWho?
>>137396358>LOVERCRAFTIs that like a racist hovercraft?
>>137396525Go ahead
I like a lot of her stuff, but her Mary Sue video was really weak and likely a result of ideological bias on her part.
>>137396461I think her trope talk videos are ultimately an improvement upon tvtropes more often that not. While tvtropes as a site is incredibly cringe, a common vocabulary for discussing common story elements is extremely useful. The problem with tvtropes is that it encouraged retards to be frivolous about it to feel like they were participating, both in terms of creating ever more 'clever' and niche sub-categories of tropes or flooding a page for a show or movie with 100 million trope links that were tangential to the material at best and were often extremely subjective. Red's trope talks sidestep that issue by being concise videos instead of a sprawling wiki, and she also not only provides context and examples but ways that the trope in question can be played straight, tweaked, or subverted.It might be easy content to make, but i can't begrudge her for that. When you have a youtube channel not everything can be an exercise in research, you'd burn out or have videos so infrequently you'd drop off the radar.
>>137396138>all 3 of the main peopleThere's three main people on OSP? I thought it was just Blue, Red, and occasionally Hello Future Me.
>>137396358A very racist ship that loves you.
>>137396167>HappyWhy you want to fuck a cat?
>>137396525Please do it and post the results here. I'll be your best friend.
>>137397576I already told him to>>137396696He’s my new best friend fucker
>>137396461The myth stuff isn't that great either, especially when she's forced to confront the fact that dudes who lived thousands of years ago weren't modern feminists.
Anyone have an opinion on her Stranger in a Strange Land Video?
>>137398008Don't make shit up to invent controversy.
>>137397007It would be better if she could draw on more examples than just a few cartoons.
>>137398042I'm not. Her Atalanta video had her coping hard to depict Atalanta as a strong female protagonist while ignoring how she constantly gets fucked over by men in her own story because the Greeks were a bunch of incels who couldn't stand genuinely independent women.
>>137398027It's the last "Modern Classic" video they've done. I kind of really hate that it's been years since there's been another. But I don't think there's any value in her taking the blathering scandalous tone Blue did the very same day he learned about the Ptolemy Dynasty. Though I'll admit I'm in a weird spot because that is single "Modern Classic" video I hadn't read the text on beforehand... and I'm not motivated to read it after her symposium on it.
>Journey to the west season 2 >never ever
>>137398276I was apparently and I did a school project for it when the English teacher gave us an assignment for a project for a book any student had a preference for. So I chose that book. Damn, was it good or not? I got an A for that.
>>137395883According to all known laws of economics, there is no way an "asexual" should be able to feed itself. Its work ethic too miniscule to getits fat little body off the ground. The "ace", of course, collects welfare because asexuals don't care what society thinks is reasonable.

Quick question, does either Red or Blue (or even Cyan for that matter) visit these boards?
>>137395883>Dude lol Tropes. I'm such an expert on Avatar. >Something something something mythology from thousands of years ago isn't feminist approved.
>>137396919Her vid on Fridging (having characters die) was also really bad
>>137398095Don't even watch the Illiad ones. It's all WAH WAH WAH HELEN DINDU NUFFIN WAH WAH WAH MENELAUS!
Blue seems generally more chill and sincere but the problem with a lot of videos, especially Red's is that they feel very, for want of a term, "freshman." You know what I mean. You just learn a fact or form an opinion and instead of mulling it over for sometime you rush out to blab it to everyone you can find because you think it makes you clever and you really just are desperate to get anything out of that student loan.
>>137398807I fucked her and she sucked my penis and I ate her pussy and she was hotter than her cartoon version and also she told me that she wouldn't fuck you because you were too fat. I'm sorry.
>>137399329Pics or gtfo
>>137399271That's basically YouTube video making in a nutshell. He's going from topic to topic probably one or two revisions before he makes a video.
>>137399397this is the best pic I own
>>137399089Of course, who do you think is jumping out to defend the honor of "Incel forma de Twitter" when these threads get made?
>>137399471Your pet centipedes?
>>137399575Yes. It's why she fucked me. It's a more essential piece of evidence than any picture of our consummation.
>>137395883Her videos are alright, not very in-depth though. They're a good primer for more nuanced discussion of a book, like how some /tv/fags will go and watch a "X ending explained" video after watching a movie. She does dicksuck Avatar too much for my liking though
>>137399675I think she just doesn't read enough non-YA books
>>137396696>>137397576Quick wip. Never watched any of her videos so I dunno what a good expression would be for her but I like angry looking ladies
>>137399986Thanks, best friend.

>>137398008>Athena beating up Arachne because she insulted her vanity is totally out of character for her and is clearly just Ovid's biasMeanwhile, in tales much older than Ovid:>Athena gets so mad at looking ugly while playing a flute that she curses whoever inds said flute to a slow and painful death>Athena is so vain that she thinks the apple "for the fairest" should be hers
Any drawfags?
>>137400321>Athena is so vain, she probably thinks this song is about her
>>137400682yeah but I was never that interested in red sorry bro
>>137399986I already can see this will be a good piece.

>>137399986Thank you Red, very informativehttps://files.catbox.moe/zz7nqu.jpg
>>137401512She's like that girl in college you get paired with, and then towards the end of your project after laughing at her corny jokes you kind of want to smash.
>>137401459fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
>>137396919the lovecraft video she broke down in the comments and started deleted comments that clearly pointed out the fallacies and bias in her video
>>137398027>>137398276Never read the book so I cant tell how accurate her video was but to this day I still laugh like an idiot whenever I watch it, it's too damn entertaining.Her genuine passion for the book's themes, her growing frustation as the plot toss bullshit more and more egregious at her and of course, whenever it was time for more Deep thoughts with HeinleinPeople should really watch this video at least once, if anything for their funniest bit ever.
>>137402018It actually got me to read it and, you know what? Heinlein was FAR too based for her liking.
>>137401459>>137401512She looks very high test with that manface and those thick shoulders and arms. I bet she has some big meat curtains and clit down there. Probably very high libido too.Would not breed, but definitely looks like prime fuckpig material.
>>137399089>>137399486If they do I have to say Red and Greg keep up the good work.
>>137401778That’s hot
>>137396138I have a very strong feeling that certain female creators will say they're "aro ace" to hide the fact that they only feel sexual attraction, best example I can think of is Jaiden's Animations giving her avatar heart eyes when meeting Cynthia in her video on Pokemon Platinum.Even if this is just a hunch I can't help but seriously consider it.
>>137398047She uses plenty of non-cartoon examples though. Like her recent video on cell phones, where she goes extensivelyt through the history of communication devices/magic in speculative fiction in literature and movies and how the tropes associated with them evolved alongside the evolution of technology in the real world.
Just popping in to say there's no such thing as being asexual
>>137403080*Lobotomizes your brain removing your sex drive and desire*What now, huh?
>>137403080This seems like a difficult belief to hold in good faith. Think about it for a minute.
>>137402890>Jaiden AnimationsI think she just claims to be aro because she has never been pursued by someone she is actually interested in. She's mid, awkward, and probably autistic so it isn't that much of a stretch
Remember when she talked about specific shows in her videos instead of vaguely gesturing to them?I didn't come to this channel for TVTropes recitations, I came for anime and cartoon opinions. Where the hell am I gonna get them now?Also it's her fault I watched MHA and now I feel betrayed by how shit it's become.
>>137396919Any attempt to explain or define Mary Sue inevitably fails, because people will redefine the term on the fly to keep their favorite characters from getting the label. Also at this point the term is outdated and we can use way more specific terms to say why we fucking hate characters.
>>137403299She's very much the kind of person who would watch MHA and thinks NetflixVania is any good
>>137401459>>137401512ok why is every pic I see of this bitch with her pits out? is she sometype of fetishist because that's just weird way to take every pic? also why wife beaters it has to be on purpose don't you motherfucker have normal pics of her.
>>137402086All this talk about her Stranger in a Strange Land Video made me wanted to watch it one more time and fuuuuck it doesnt get old! >The cuts to Deep Thoughts >Heinlein self-insert >heterosexual free love is the cure>Self censoring all the nudity with Heinlein heads>"Heinlein, did you write your self-insert being sexually assaulted by a sex cult member AND FRAMED AS A GOOD THING!?">Red singing "People Are Strange" while credits rollIt's a jolly good show
>>137403553I wish someone did a Verhoeven to Stranger in a Strange Land.
>>137403683A verhowhatnow?
>>137403751Paul Verhoeven directed Starship Troopers
>>137403870It would be better to do it as a series. Even better if it were animated.
>>137399986Uhhh SEXO…
>>137403336The best way to describe a Mary Sue is to look at the character the trope is named after, Lieutenant Mary Sue from A Trekkie's Tale.She is basically perfect as a character and the story ends with her being immortalized as the hero who selflessly sacrificed her own life to save pretty much everything ever.We will keep using the term because it refers to a flawless character that gets away with things that they shouldn't in the same way that we use the term self-insert to refer to a writer writing a version of themselves into the story as a character or how we use the term McGuffin to refer to something in the story that is essentially worthless on its own but serves to keep the story moving.Trying to redefine it results in you outing yourself as someone who doesn't know what they're talking about.
Red needs more edits.
>>137404114So, Michael Burnham?
>>137404029Is she married or has a love interest?
>>137396919The grimdark video was peak anime brain for me.
>>137404117You mean Redits?
>>137404131No, she has too many flaws.
>>137403553Heinlein was a weird dude. Not as weird as Hubbard or Lovecraft but still had a lot of hangups.
>>137404114You're retreating to the origin of the term and using it as a one-size-fits-all mold, though with enough literalism a character can't be a Mary Sue unless they attract romantic attention, win an award for super skilled piloting, and die heroically. Even then, you could write a character in actual television or literature who does everything Ensign Mary Sue did and make it actually entertaining and fun. If Kirk did everything she did, you'd probably love it.
>>137404333Mary Sue is a Mary Sue because she's perfect at everything and beloved by everyone.If she decided to practice dart throwing she'd only get bullseyes unless she actively chose to miss because she's perfect without any compromises.A Mary Sue refers to a character that has no meaningful flaws.
>>137401848kek what were they saying exactly?
Why do all white women podcasters sound the same?>>137403336I think most people have a consistent definition of their own, it's just the issue is that definition is usually just to a smaller group of people rather than widely accepted then when it comes to assigning it to characters people have disagreements because what constitutes genuine flaws and conflict usually differs. Not to mention the constant bad faith arguments purposefully trying to drag down characters or dismantle the word. Though the real issue with mary sue is that like most buzzwords they're only useful to make a simplistic argument where it'd be so much more useful to actually say the real reasons you think that instead of trying to use one loaded word. You think Batman is a Mary Sue? Tell me actually why, so I can see where you're coming from rather than try to reverse engineer how you arrived at that conclusion from a definition we might not ever share. And if we don't then I might start arguing with you from a perspective you don't even have or worse just say "nuh-uh" and our disagreement lets neither of us know what the other ACTUALLY thinks.

>>137406041Honestly, I'm not really a huge fan of Terrible Writing Advice. For me at least, I think that the recurring jokes aren't that funny. Like, a joke about a love triangle gets stale after a while.
>>137406041Now we are talking.His last video was pure unadulterated fence-sitting. Hurr durr woke is a buzzword, am I right fellow youtubers?

>>137398008>>137398095She also looks for versions of myth that she feels are funnier/less offensive , for e.g the ringworm myth, the most common version of the myth is where the maiden uses milk to transform the ringworm back into a prince but red picker a version where she whips him.
>>137405297Not anymore. Became total shit after it peaked with Dabi's reveal.
>>137406264>She also looks for versions of myth that she feels are funnier/less offensiveNow I'm wondering how would she spin Reynard the Fox if she ever covered it.

>>137406323For me it was wasting the MetaLiberationArmy TWICE just so we could do what we've been doing since arc one.
As others have said her Heinlein video is quite entertaining. But I want to say thaf I liked her videos on Superman a lot. Also the Dragon ball video she made about the Super Saiyan transformation. And how despite the pacing of the Freeza saga being weird in the anime it actually kind of helps the build up. Disagree with her slightly on the Android/Cell saga. But that might just be my bias, I like androids and Cell's imperfect form and initial appearance is creepy and engaging.
>>137404029>>137401512>>137401459I don't mean this in a weird way. But I feel so defeated. I would kill for a girlfriend like her. Not even in a sexual way, but she's cute and has a cute personality. I jjust need someone like her to speak to daily, cuddle with, and spend most of my time with. Its just so tiring, bros. Working every day, sleeping every night, all alone. I have nobody and nothing. I fantasize about my suicide - not that I want to die, but just to see people's reactions. Nobody outside my immediate family would care. It would be a sparsely populated and quiet funeral. Again, I don't want to die. I like living. I'm just utterly, and completely alone. Outside of those who have a borderline biological obligation to at the very least tolerate me if all parties aren't psychopaths (my family are rather normal), I have nobody. I'm slowly progressing through my 20's, and I have nobody and nothing. I feel like a husk.
>>137407514You arent alone, bro, stay strong and you might find her
>>137407574Meant to attach to previous, oops
>>137398027Pretty accurate desu, The first part of the book with all the politicking and the setting getting fleshed out is kino but the cult shit and the author insert giving nonstop socratic seminars sucked. As always, Heinlein is at his best when he's presenting interesting hypotheticals and at his worst when he's trying to tell you what to think. 6/10, Starship Troopers was better.>>137398276Dune would've been a great follow-up after SIASL, but if Twitter is anything to go by both her and Blue got filtered and I'll never not be mad.

>>137407514I have good news for you anonThe ability to socialize can be trained. We're clever monkeys wired to live in groups. It's not easy so far along the line, and requires jumping into the terrifying unknown, and suffering awkward failures of course. It helps to find a social environment that's completely outside the box of how you've interacted with people before! For me, it was joining an improv group - not only was it decent company whom I got to see and interact with weekly, but it was also a constant excercise in being in situations where being familiar with what's happening was out of the question from the word go (in front of an audience no less), and opened my eyes to how pretty much all of us are just improvising every life situation as we go along, and it's just a matter of either practicing the familiar, or putting on a confident face as you maneuver through the unknown.I'm sure you too can find your own little niche place that'll give you company and an unfamiliar but helpful environment where you get to grow. Don't be afraid to dip your toes wherever you feel an impulse or draw. You're an adult, you do you.

not enough
>>137406112Bringing that up, I think if either of them make a video about crossovers (not a trope by itself but Red talked about sequels in a Trope Talk), they should make it a collab, between them or with other youtuber. Is there any other youtuber that discusses tropes and writting advice?

>>137412313Why would anyone do that?
>>137412348So I can draw her avatar without a guilty conscience.
>>137412365Well if it makes you feel better some artist, who draws her on the regular, got an answer and the verdict is "I don't care much for it" or something along thos elines.
>>137412391Really? I thought that was Happy? If you got something I could see I'd love to know.
>>137412365When she talks about macguffin she ironically starts talking about rule 34. So yeah I don't think she minds 34 her 'sona. https://youtu.be/_HcZluK6vxg
>>137412473Huh. Why haven't I seen this yet? Odd.It doesn't seem like a tacit acceptance, but... Hmmm... I might need to make a burner and just. Ask.
>>137410659Because a group identity needs a history to give it weight. Hitler told the germans we wuz hyperboreans, black supremacists tell blacks we wuz pharaohs, nationalists in the east say we wuz mongols etc. The gays say we wuz the grecoromans, the people who created lots of art and values that our societies were built on. And then the normies roll with it because men think displaying macho men is gay while women think gays are cute.

His first videos were very generic like, see how I comment sarcastically the surface flaws of this trope/genre, like no one ever has done that, but I think he has improved and now he also gives subtle alternatives for common cliches.I like how he not only comments tropes and genres but also other subjects that affects writters irl like publishing or criticism. He has toned down the "love triangle" joke and he even comments how overused it has been. He is also the only youtuber I'm interested to see his sponsor skits, but the current plot with the chainsaw general is draging on like Namek Also >>137410708 is Tale Foundry any good?

>>137395883I hate this lunatic, she broke the gatekeeping of the Greek myths and now I have to listen to the normies complaining that the Greek gods are problematic
>>137396167Spbp
>>137418761In my experience, it's less that people complain that the Greek gods are problematic and more people cracking jokes about just how fucked up they were.Plus, why do some people get so defensive when something they like becomes popular?
>>137404517No
>>137412064I'm mad I thought this same thing lol, I just didn't want to be the weird one saying it. But yeah not into armpits but she def must have a fetish she's always in tank tops and always posed with her armpits out
>>137418798>Plus, why do some people get so defensive when something they like becomes popular?It's hard to explain, but the reason is that normies and redditors are annoying

>>137407648>Dune would've been a great follow-up after SIASL, but if Twitter is anything to go by both her and Blue got filteredThat almost happened to me, desu. I knew nothing about Dune going into it other than that it was supposedly about super cocaine, giant worms, and space jihad, and with that in mind I found the book a slog to get through at first since it's much more about politics and philosophy than you'd expect.
>>137408802Because in my experience, people just say they're Ace because they don't want a boyfriend or girlfriend at the time. I think people should just be honest.
>>137395883>Watch one of this bitches "trope talks" videos where she's talking about kaiju>Insists that all kaiju are metaphors full stop>Insists that King Kong is a metaphor for interracial relationships and slavery>Literally compares black to apes>Never mind that the creator of King Kong had actually said that the movie wasn't about that but rather was a metaphor for how the urge for discovery and adventure paradoxically robs the world of new things to discover/ destroys the wonder of the world.>clutches her pearls over HP Lovecraft and Heinlein being "problematic" >Completely ignores their later lives and how they changed as people over time.I quite dislike her

>>137421105He looks like the most generic person you can come up with. Its as if he were generated by an AI with the prompt "white man"

>>137401739Why every woman on this style look so sexy and deserve to be my wife, bros
>>137398027She made the classic mistake everyone makes with Heinlein, which is taking any one of his books and thinking you can use that to determine what Heinlein's political beliefs are.Fun Fact: You cannot determine what Heinlein's political beliefs are because even Heinlein couldn't determine what his political beliefs were.The man just liked to write about hypothetical societies that don't really resemble anything in reality let alone something he wanted the world to become.
>>137403080Social asexualism doesnt exist, like all the Twitter faggots want it to, but if someone has something biologically wrong with them, like their body fucks up on hormone production its entirely possible for biological asexuals to exist, as they just quite literally wouldnt have the drive needed.
>>137421650Abso-fucking-lutely
>>137421106Think about it for a little while and I think it makes some form of sense. I mean, a bunch of white Americans show up on land that is savage and backward, and they bring back one of those beings from that savage land (mind you a gorilla, and the commonality of using Monkey as a racial slur), it breaks free, and tries to form a relationship with a white woman, where, given its bestial nature, it deserves to be put down.
>>137420940Lovecraft changed? That's impossible.
>>137401459>>137401512>>137409305>>137409340any other armpit pics?
>>137421650I am so sad you’re poor taste of women
>>137421106"Critics" especially online ones will always grasp at straws to reach a predetermined self imposed point that they can grab any small thing, remove or redefine context and then say it means what they want it too. In reality the truth is always much simpler. Sometimes a giant gorilla. Is just a giant gorilla.
>>137420940>Insists that King Kong is a metaphor for interracial relationships and slaveryit was not against animal cruelty?
>>137423776More like it's against exploiting nature for entertainment. The main inspiration for the original King Kong was komodo dragons being brought to the NYC zoo from Indonesia only for them to die within six months because they were kept in a small open air concrete pit exposed to the city's winters.
>>137423774Applicability is a real thing though. A story's audience can often see messages the author didn't intend. But I do agree that there are people out there that only want to hear one specific message and will do mental gymnastics to get there.
>>137407514>>137408498This is the correct answer. Socialising can be learned. I'm literally autistic, but through years of observation and practice I can now pass as normal in most social situations. You simply have to go outside your comfort zone and actually talk to people. Note that your choice of venue matters, clubs, bars, etc. are all different. My dad goes to a traditional dance class full of old/oldish people for example, and he connects well with the people there.You can do it anon!
Oh yeah, I suppose her style is reminiscent of Tvtropes. Informative but relaxed and entertaining. I never really considered that, but that explains why I enjoy her work; I'm a big fan of Tvtropes.>>137420940You've the constitution of an eggshell.
>>137402018>>137403553Red's wasting her talents talking about stuff she enjoys, she's clearly way funnier when talking about shit that repulses her. The Galatea video comes to mind. She needs to become the AVGN of lit and myth.
>new Overly Sarcastic video drops>it's another goddamn 3+ hour livestream of Red playing Zelda games>mfwCan't they just put this shit on a secondary channel? I know watching other people play video games is all the rage these days but I didn't sign up to the channel for this garbage non-content.

>>137424912Speaking in general, not for this exact moment.
>>137419896Seems like it's currently on a 'one video a year around december' schedule
>>137410659Blame Athens, an entire nation state of closet pedo-fags who ended up writing most of the surviving records, in which they project super fucking hard.Pretty much every conspiracy about left-wing ideologies is something Athens unironically did and not even as a concentrated effort, as far as anyone can tell. They really were the global-homo soft power war of ideas faggots of their time.
>>137423105Lovecraft's perception as some kind of turbolord of racism stems heavily from a bad case of survivorship bias and poor understanding of society at the time, as well as the man himself.Lovecraft was unironically the token straight white dude of his friendgroup and was surprisingly liberal for the time, but struggled deeply with what he felt was true, IE Other races have feelings and aren't so terrible, and what as an educated and well read man science told him at the time, IE that other races were inferior and inhuman.Combined with a likely familial tendency to mental illness and an actually rather poor opinion of himself, and this and other related personal struggles with understanding humanity, science, and the implications of what he knew and felt in the wider universe leads to his novels where a scared intellectual white dude loses his fucking mind in almost every book. That dude represents Lovecraft and his deepseated belief that whatever the truth is, he himself would not be able to handle it, that he would break in the face of the uncaring nature of a universe that would prove either his feelings or knowledge wrong, one way or another.He struggled with this to the end, Howard helped him a lot, being his hypeman and writing an opposing, reassuring message, until he killed himself and left Lovecraft alone. But even then like the guy still married and loved a Jewish woman before the first fucking world war, the rest of the world wouldn't be even slightly okay with that for another 60 fucking years almost. It's just that we have all his locker room talk in paper form and most other similar things got recycled during the wars, papers, novels, etc. It's the cause of a huge destruction of the understanding of american society and literature during that period and is a big part of why the classics exist, they were some of the only things to survive.Without the context from that, he sticks out and looks really bad to the uneducated.
>>137424082Very correct, you are intact more media literate than osp, /co/ and tv tropes combined (treating story telling as just face value with no coreherent point that it's all thematically woven too, just that it's a collection of premade ideas to just be thrown into a unique order is singlehandedly one of the worst and most fucking idiotic thinks that has ever been thought of)
>>137425306I mean that and never really writing and like formal apology as a letter or just in a book where people would see it makes it seem kinda natural that people would focus more on that
>>137425331Anon he was down to fuck Jews and be friends with latins, celts, and negros[so long as the later didn't come from Red Hook], he wasn't socially suicidal, just mildly actually suicidal. Writing any kind of heartfelt apology would have been basically showing his power level and would have seen him dropped from every magazine and maybe even killed at the time. He was a pasty twig man with like 200 different health problems with no close support network, he'd have died by starvation or panic attack if nobody decided to off the guy.Further his fear was in part that the science of the time was right and he couldn't contest it except that it seemed wrong, and on the flip side he couldn't change how he felt and what he saw and believed which naturally raced the question of if that was wrong then was there something wrong with him?Man was a mess of neurosis and was dealing with what was for the time an insurmountable problem, that one way or another he was fucked and the world was either a terrible, heartless thing where mathematics and science existed in defiance of the better part of human nature, that the later was a defect even, or that the machinations and wonderworks of mankind in plotting out the universe and its vast mechanisms was flawed, faulty, perhaps a waste of time and only a source of suffering, that entire lifetimes had been devoted to constructing not even a lie, but the irrelevant mewling and simpering of insects that could never truly understand.It was some heavy shit, there's a reason the fucker invented an entire school of philosophical thought just trying to handle all that shit.
>>137425306Oh.: (I wonder if he would've liked me, a Hispanic-german kid who grew up loving his works and all they inspired, even writing his own albeit lovecraftian stories. It's just one of those things, I guess.He needed a hug, too. Didn't know about the wife thing.
>>137421650EEEEYUP
>>137425491He still probably would have has schizo ideas about your people and have been scared shitless of you but demonstrably by his relationship with Howard [a proud celt, the traditional enemy of literally every supposedly superior race at the time for millennia and actually thought to be related to the spaniards at the time] he would have just been happen to have someone else to shoot the shit with and have schizo ideas about monstrous elder god shit with even if he would have easily still have been your most racist friend.
>>137425519It's surprising that I have so many racist friends on both sides of the aisle. My Hispanic friends hate Asians and Blacks, my white friends hate Mexicans and Blacks, and my one black friend won't date black men. If I could've met Lovecraft I wouldve put him in my closet circle. That guy was a cracked gemstone - brilliance is there, but it's coming out flawed and all over the place.Hmmm. If I only had a time machine... Then again that might literally kill him.
>>137406041He was alright before he fell for the "doug did it, so that means it must be good!" logic trap and started bloating his videos with dumb skits.
>>137401739>>137421743For me, it's pretty much every pretty boy she draws. All of them are really hot.
>>137425519>actually thought to be related to the spaniards at the timeKinda not wrong since the Celtiberians (Celts + Iberians mixing) existed
You filthy animals.
>>137427148I love the cute/creepy mix of her Dionysus.
>>137407514This is extremely normal. The good news is that you aren't hopeless, it just feels that way.However you need to understand that a woman isnt going to make you happy, you're going to have to find ways to be happy yourself, and a woman will find that attractive.Basically, find a way to be totally stoked on who you are and what you accomplish, and everything else will fall into place. I went from being a 26 year old, 320 lb neckbeard with a starwars bedroom at my parents house to a 28 year old,198lb runner (5k now, 10k soon) with my own apartment. You can get there too.
I was traveling and I thought I heard Red and Blue behind me ordering something. I even think I saw them, but to this day I doubt it.
>>137429265What were they ordering?
>>137425306He named his cat niggerman
>>137428343Dionysus is definitely a noteworthy one. There's also a good few hot guys in the Journey to the West series.
>>137429712Coffee at Starbucks.
>>137429744I mean you usually don't name your pets after things you hate
>>137429861Niggerman (affectionate)
>>137429744>>137429861>>137429927From what I remember that's more of his dad calling the cat. The cat would respond to that name so they just kept calling the cat that
>>137429744No, his father did. Dumbass niggerman.
>>137429958Would it be wrong to call my call my car Gyp?
>>137402890Isn't she fucking Alpharad atm?
>>137429958>>137430022>His dad called his cat NiggermanThat that is hilariously such a dad thing to do. I would call my child's pets offensive shit too.
>>137424698They do it because it's low effort. Some amateur voice actors I follow do the same thing.
>Red points out how she isn't a fan of Lovecraft's beliefs and its influences in his writing, but enjoys the mythos and his stories anyways >anons flip a tit as though she's shaming you and anyone else for enjoying lovecraft Is this a boogieman thing? Insecurity thing?
>>137431098She lies
>>137424777Trips of poignant observation. Also>There was a planet between Mars and Jupiter the martians didnt want there so they blow it up and thats why the asteroid belt exists>Cool, CoolCoolCoolCoolCool
>>137417984>Did you know that Edgar rice Burroughs was racist?>Yeah his views on eugenics pretty much informed the different factions of martians.>Green martians represent oppressed minorities because...I'd rather she didn't.
>>137431396>dude trust me, im upset
>>137421187the end of that game made me sad for some strange reason.
>>137431098Incels are notoriously thin-skinned and easily get upset over trivial things.
>>137401459So called free thinkers when they see red irl be like:
>>137432547>implying she would racemix
>>137432600Of course she would anon. You see all that white guilt she displays?
>>137432600Could imply they're black too dumbass
>>137406264I’ve only come across the version where she whips him
>>137431474It's particularly hilarious since while Lovecraft was actually moderately liberal for his time, Burroughs was screamingly, flamingly liberal for his time. John Carter is basically a marathon of how cool, interesting, and respectable all these schizo aliens and their cultures are even as he's cutting them down in the thousands, the only bad thing he has to ever say about anyone is when they're hurting other people or they personally have done something openly treacherous or vile.Like the Greens are the granddaddies of Orcs and based on the usual germanic hordes thing in much the same way and even they're constantly treated as respectable for their honor and integrity even when there's an army of the fuckers bearing down on John to murder him and an entire city. It probably helps that one of them was his brother from another mother but the man as written sees the best in everyone.
>>137432600She's a filthy liberal, she'd consider it an honor of the highest esteem. Not that my horny Mexican ass is complaining.
>>137403145Lol this. Every asexual retard is just someone who hasn't found their specific pussy/dick yet. Bet dollars to donuts Jaiden fucks or atleast likes that one faggot who plays pokemon all the time
>>137403459White women are just weird like that
>>137407514Just off yourself and get it over with, goddamn
>>137409340I'd smash but damn her mannish face is off putting
>>137431098>implies his writing is bad at every turn>says you might as well stop reading Shadow Over Innsmouth early>boils down Lovecraft's immensely nuanced beliefs on race and class into "LMAO HE WAS SCARED OF BROWN PEOPLE"If you just want to jerk off over how much better you are than /pol/ do it somewhere else
>>137433308Not at every turn, says shadow over insmoth isn't bad aside from the allegory, and the one with the goat acedemic guy is good even if a lil predictable
>>137415110>And yet Amphibia and the owl house are both popular shows herePopular in the sense anons like to talk shit about them and jack off to the underage characters.
>>137433788Anon that every single shows on /co/
>>137417942Red: Monkie Kid. The show literally used her videos as a reference for the lore of the show and it's weird she rarely acknowledges that show exists at all.
>>137433199That adds to the appeal
>>137433308>no she doesn't, in fact she likes it enough to illustrate several of his stories >knows her audience and that they look into the media she covers, so gives the thinner skinned among them a fair warning>"us vs them" is 'immensely nuanced', so much so its beyond reproach!No one cares about your need for "persecution" pity. Take it back to /pol/ and keep it there.
>>137417942Red: WormI just want to see her take on it
Is her webcomic any good? I remember opening the site and seeing a bunch of tabs with loredumps that it's just sitting at the very bottom of my reading list because of it.
>>137436285Webcomic?
>>137436687She made a webcomichttps://comicaurora.com/
>>137436765I love red so that's why I don't want to read that.She's been such a trope master that anything other than the best story ever told would make me feel like a version of herself would criticize it.
>>137401459Would you like a second opinion?
Oh so this is the thread?Quick /co/ name that one Youtuber you're fond of!
>>137438578Jaiden Animation before she got super popular
>>137436244Redbros…. .I don’t feel so good
I really want her to stop the Trope series. Red's at least 30 years old at this point, she needs to move on to actual literary analysis instead of fucking around with a teenager's understanding of writing concepts.
>>137433936She talked about it in one of her after dark streams. She's holding off on it because she she doesn't want her own designs of the demons to be subconscious influenced by the show
>>137439013Wait, they do?
>>137438866Ask her if she minds lewd fanart.
because of this chick there's a ton of people who shit on Ovid (one of the best Roman authors) without ever having read any of his work, because his depiction of some random myth didn't match up with a tumblr headcanon.
>>137439038I could do without Ovid and his penchant for softcore homoeroticism
>>137425306I was about to point out that Howard was white but remembered that the Irish were scientifically classified as equivalent to negroes back then
>>137433936>The show literally used her videos as a reference for the lore of the showProof? I want to believe but i need confirmation.
>>137402890100% think Jaiden outed herself as aro ace to dodge the allegations that she was getting dicked down hard by alpharad>>137433132>just someone who hasn't found their specific pussy/dick yetNah, if that were the case they'd be maladjusted like incels. in my experience, people who are just making excuses for being single will call themselves some made up orientation like demi-sexuality or sapio-sexual. y'know >"I'm not single because of my unrealistic standards, I'm unrealistic standard sexual so you can't call me shallowI've seen the spiral twice. once with my ex and another with a friend and it's exactly as Jaiden described>Person gets in a relationship for what can be described as "I was asked and that's just what people do">Relationship crashes and burns because normal people can tell when their partner is phoning it in or the partner gets tired of phoning it in>person tries again as being gay>fails again>realizes relationships and sex aren't for them
>>137439182Yeah being White used to be specifically the domain of the germanics and "I guess some Latins, like the ones from Italy who used to be Rome, and the Greeks are okay I guess." Celtic, Latins other than the ones they liked, and Slavs got the "Subhuman" brush.
>>137433308Don't bother giving anon the benefit of the doubt when he feels the need to reply to himself.137431098137431508137432049137435051
>>137396167So you can self insert or be a cuck?
>>137395883I WANT TO FUCK HER SO FUCKING BAD FUCK AAAA
>>137405679Yeh it is funny
>>137421105He’s smart but looks super boring
>>137439608>This mfw there is no Redussy
I wont forgive her for making me want to fuck Mr Hyde
>>137429927Was thinking of making a comic with Niggerman as the MC. Pretty sure it will be a hit.
>>137406112kek, I need this
>>137419379Why will Jaidenbros cope with this crisis?
What are your thoughts on Aurora, the Webcomic she draws and writes for?
>>137430401>>137439221I genuinely loathe Alpharad, that asshole really pisses me off.If I was a woman and had meet him, I would also turned asexual
>>137411675Anon this whole thread is about literal whos
>>137441296Yes, but I’m talking about a different literal who.
>>137403080True, it's just a politically correct way of labelling someone as an incel.
i truly wonder.them asexuals, when they get their first taste of sex...do they go wild like lustful rampage ?that sounds hella hot desu
>>137441053Never read it.
>>137417355>Did Red ever leave an associate to the mob after a false allegation?What happend?
>>137441529Jaiden did an animation with callmecarson, not long after he got hit with a false allegation and she took the video down and distanced herself from him.I was wondering if Red did anything similar, if she didn't she is best girl.
>>137441927From what I seen in the video. Red started by herself. It was later blue seeing her videos that he wanted to collab, red was wary as the YouTube is something she cared about.I don't think Red ever worked with someone who did something she wasn't comfortable with. She has a nice group of friends I think the reading Shakespeare plays you can really see the group of friends.
>>137441971Thanks anon for the information, I've mostly watched her solo videos and only seen a couple of her videos with collabs.
I'm not convinced that Asexuality exists.Especially when things like "demisexual" meaning "oh I only become sexual with someone that I have a romantic connection to" exists as part of the "asexual spectrum"congrats, sex causes your brain to pair bond, this is basic biology and also why casual sex is bad, you just slapped a sexual identity onto it
>>137400321eh, ovid being mad at authority because he got banished from rome (he was fucking augustus' daughter) is well establishedhe also pulled the "posideon raped medusa" story out of his ass, in older versions medusa was born a monster and has 2 monster sistersthis on is really funny because you have modern feminists trying to reconcile "muh girlboss athena" with "punishes a rape victim" (they landed on "oh she did it so she would never be raped again")
>>137398027>"heinleinnn did you just write your self insert character getting sexually assaulted by your sex cult and frame it like it was a good thing???"gets a chuckle out of me every time
>>137442173Who wouldn’t accept making whoopie with a hot hippie chick?
>>137404214I think I've read a broad enough cross section to say that Heinlein is:1. a lolbertarian of the worst type2. weirdly fixated on incest, pedophilia, sexual corporal punishment3. not as smart as he thinks he is4. believes that if you don't beat your kids society will collapse
>>137442118There's a reality that some people don't feel so strongly about sex as most of humanity and could go their entire lives without it with no issue.
>>137442255Read >>137421748 please.
>>137441053Current arc is moving very slowly. Also have a lot of focus on Dainix who i don't care about
>>137442012I can drop some more Red Lore. Her ehole start is because she didn't like "Much ado about nothing" she was at a family diner when someone ask "so how's school what are you studying?" And she replied by saying it sucks because she's it's about X but Y and Z characters are much more interesting. Surprisingly as she eent on most of her family was laughing by the end of her rant. After she went up to her room and wrote most of it down which would be her first video.
>>137436765Yo I'm loving the comicShe sure fucking loves her tropes, but uses them well and the worldbuilding is autismal just the way I love it
>>137441927>not long after he got hit with a false allegationoof, i don't know nothing about no youtuber people drama, but if there's one thing i DO know is that if 4chan calls an allegation false then assume it's true and assume it's fuckin bad
>>137425306The problem is that so many people today are either unable to or unwilling to put themselves in the context of the time these people lived in. They just want to lord over the past with their modern sensibilities while being ever more detached from the time in which they actually happened and lived so they don't have the context of the actual environment on how the person in question was raised. If they had been raised in these times they would be just as bad if not worse than the people they claim to be better than. It's using history as a means of moral grandstanding.
>>137442348>Author writes a thing for a story>This is an actual basis of his personal beliefs and not just a tool or plot for his book. When did people become like this?
>>137401778Fan fucking tastic!
>>137442735I mean, there are plenty of times in Heinlein's writing where all the story just stops, and some character just starts lecturing on political theory. It's hard not to think that isn't just Heinlein regurgitating his beliefs. At the same time, it's also pretty clear that the societies depicted in his works aren't actually what he thinks are idea, but basically are just what >>137421748 said.

>>137442696This. Being a man of the zeitgeist I always say that if I was born on another era I would have been a good nazi. Not SS-tier mind you, more like proficient in my desk job at the party quarters.
>>137442244Never stick it in crazy anon, no matter how good the pice is always steep. Now imagine reading about a gaggle of crazies pressing on a guy to pork them in order to achieve enlightment but it's written like the guy is in the wrong for not wanting to put his dick inside a wasp's nest.
>>137444565I mean, I think there is a fair and valid point to remembering the context of the times, however, I also think that it can be used to excuse those who commit morally awful actions. Like, Nathan Bedford Forrest is a massive piece of shit and I don't think he of all people should get a free pass because it was a different time.
>>137442562eh sort of? basically people were flaming carson because he was dating a 17 year old... when he was 19 so it's one of those cases where the facts were true it was just a retarded thing to be mad at him over

>>137428094Hi Red
>>137442562Than you really don't know shit. When 4chan calls an allegation false then it really is false but people still make fun of the person accused because it's funny or because they don't like them in the first place. When 4chan believes in an allegation it's either because they don't like that person in the first place or because they don't think it's a big deal like an adult man having consensual sex with an adult woman and then ghosting her and she feels like she needs to takes this issue to the internet
>>137439038What myth and what headcanon
>>137398027The video actually made me buy the book. 10/10. Would adapt
>>137399471they seem very polite.
>>137406041I would love to see a wojak version of him
>>137407514I can promise you that these people are boring as fuck 24/7 irl and are only like this when making scripted videos. You think you could have in-depth conversations for hours with them about these wacky topics but if you ever tried they'd give you monosyllable responses and scroll twitter on their phone. They're only talkative when they get to sperg out on their own terms, and if you try chiming into the conversation they'll get pissy that you're interrupting their sperg deluge.
This entire thread just makes Jaiden sound like a kinda annoying cunt. She doesn't even sound like a bad person, just someone you're better off not associating with outside of being acquaintances.
>>137448779Parasocial relationships be like that. No one here interacts directly with her, and you can bet your ass many people in this thread are anti-social.
>>137441381I gotta wonder that too
What’s she up to these days?
>>137425313what?
>>137425313Use layman’s terms
I miss when Bannerguy was developing that STA eroge, Project SSt or somethingI know for a fact that they had a good writer for the Red route, but the project was cancelled and that script is now lost to time
>>137442154I'm well aware of Ovid's hate of authority and the Medusa stuff. Medusa might actually have extremely old roots, I've seen suggestions that the gorgons could possibly be based on Humbaba, who Gilgamesh slewI'm saying that with Arachne, Red got all up on blaming Ovid for Athena's sudden vanity, but Athena being vain (and acting cruel because of it) is very much an established thing that well predates Ovid.As for the Arachne myth, Ovid's version is the oldest extant version we have.
>>137451104>TIME FOR SOME CORRECTION
How well would she do in fishtank.live?
>>137451140What the hell is that?
>>137451104The objectively better version of this bit
>>137404143That definitely went heavy into “I don’t like it, can’t personally get why others do, so liking it Is bad wrong AND DON’T YOU DEAR SUGGEST OTHERWISE!!”
>>137444866It's not about excusing it, it's about putting things into proper perspective and perhaps even understand the series of events that lead to these things happening. It's easy to look at WW2 and go NAZI BAD but there was A LOT of shit that happened to make them that way and until we start examining the root causes of history instead using to moral grand stand we're not gonna make anything better. You can't just say someone did something bad while ignoring why they did it.
>>137417942Together: Red Oni Blue Oni
>>137439219Seconded for curiosity
>>137444866I think the bigger issue is with cases like Christopher Columbus or the founding fathers, where people are so enamored with them not being perfect that their reputations have swung around to the point where people outright demonize them.
>>137451104Athena having a misshapen pancake butt is really amusing and arousing to me.
>>137439705>It's a "she actually read the book which is way different and way better than what pop culture led me to believe" episodeHyde & Frankenstein opened my eyes to the beauty of lit.
>>137451104I can't decide which of these would the worst idea to tap. I mean, for sure Artemis if she was there, but among these three?
>>137452491Deduce which has the best qualities
Does anyone have more Red nsfw rule 34 stuff?
>>137452660I’d rather just have normal drawfags here desu
>>137452628Hera obviously grants the best boons but Zeus is a fucking hypocrite and would probably turn you into a pillar of salt.
>>137452353I mean, Columbus can be criticized that even as a Colonial Governor he had reportedly put down a revolt and paraded the dismembered bodies throughout the city? Exaggeration? Maybe, but even exaggerated accounts have some truthfulness behind them.
>>137451610However I do think a lot of people use the times as an excuse. And yeah, I’m going to argue moral grandstanding does something. When we further scorn these monstrous actions and beliefs, most sane people would consider it social suicide to even believe in something as morally abhorrent as Nazism.
Reminder that all relevant historical figures existed in a time where an amount of people disagreed with their beliefs, and must therefore have actively chose to never learn any better>nooo he owned slaves but it was fine because olden timesThere were always people against slavery
>>137453008I mean if a king went "let's abolish serfdom" he'd just be replaced, or his policies revoked upon death. Manby such cases throughout history. Slavery was crazy lucrative for all parties involved, nobody REALLY wanted to abolish it any more than we want to abolish teh stock market.
>>137452491Hera,there's a 50/50 chance she'd kill you herself because she's the goddess of fidelity and marriage. So you're a bad reminder of the infidelity she just did. If not Zeus will be pretty fucking mad when he finds out. And Zeus doesn't play with his tortures.Athena is probably the safest since she's not married or anything. All you have to be worried about is the wraith of the two goddesses you just besmirched and maybe an envious Hephaestus. But there's no one aiming for you on simple principal of cucking them. Aphrodite meanwhile has two, and Hera has the King of the Cosmos.Athena is safest, also I unironically had a bit of a crush on her when I was younger. I was a weird teenager.
>>137453262Hephaestus knew who he married, he should chill out with the envy. He's the envy of every other guy. God I wish Artemis was up for grabs, took until the modern age for writers to even start exploring the option. Surely she doesn't turn every guy into a deer to get devoured by his own dogs because that's just mental illness.
>>137453008>There were always people against slaveryYeah but it was seen as a nessesary evil like taxes and the police. no one thought being a slaver trader was an honorable job. I remember even reading in "Debt, the first 5000 years" that even slaves just accepted the institution hook line and sinker cause there was a notion of honor (the person who enslaved you didn't kill you, you kind of deserved it, you would do the same if the roles were swapped..etc) until some converted to some protestant version Christianity and realized " Wait, if we are all equals in the eyes of the lord, why is this allowed?!". It took a global superpower colonizing 25% of the world and then pointing a gun boat at the others who weren't their subjects for slavery finally be abolished (Dejure. There are technically more slaves today then in any point in the past and prisoners are technically slaves)
>>137453389The police is a fairly new invention, scotland yard is only like 200 years old. Before that everyone nearby were expected to intervene which is why you see people gang up and dogpile on suspected criminals in some countries still. In classical Rome you could go report them to a preator or something. Also nobles and the clergy never paid taxes. There's no necessary evil sadly, we made it all up for various conveniences.
>>137453297It's a matter of pride, anon, it's bad enough everyone knew he was a cuck he didn't want them thinking he was an oblivious one especially when it's just a mortal. Also he didn't really choose Aphrodite from what I recall, it was just Zeus being like "here's the best piece of ass I can legally give you"Also you could probably get away with seeing her naked if you joined her cult because that'd mean you were honorbound to be as chaste as her. Thus making your gaze completely pure....right anon?
>>137453529I mean the only way she'd know otherwise is if she spied on me between 8-9 PM and if she's chaste she wouldn't do that... Right, anon?
>>137453558Why would you be awake? You should be resting for tommorow's hunt. We rise at the crack of dawn. You can't just reverse uno this anon, she's legitimately chaste, and not trying to catch you jerking off. Keep your oath or get ready to play with some dogs.
>>137405507I love that Peter's chin actually looks like a pair of testicles, just like that one joke.

>>137455968NO
>>137452491Hera is likely the worst choice.>HeraGoddess of Fidelity is not likely to be happy about cheating, but might have some mercy thanks to also being the protector of men. Zeus would put you through eternal torment like Ixion though, so bad, bad idea. Though it is unclear if Zeus actually punished him for trying to seduce Hera, the tale makes it seem just as likely that his punishment was for bragging about cuckolding Zeus openly. So maybe Zeus would be fine with it if you never told a soul?>AthenaDepending on the story you read sort of Zeus favorite child(sometimes that is Hercules instead), but he would not necessarily actually intercede(Athena has tried to usurp him once at least).The fact that she is sworn (I think?) to chastity makes it very unlikable anything would happen regardless, unless you could somehow force a greek war goddess. If we assume she was willing, possibly the safest choice.>AfroditeHas had human lovers, and some of them turn out alright. Easily the best choice.
>>137453176Slave revolts were a thing since antiquity, many places prefer not having slaves than dealing with that shit.
>>137451104In this situation you just pull and Io and run as fast as you can don’t look back just go.
>>137442244Me, hippies aren’t sexy they’re gross.
This thread
>>137456258The smart thing to do is to pick Aphrodite, and explain to the other goddesses that you didn't pick Hera because you would never dream of violating her marriage with Zeus and tell Athena that you respect her vow of chastity. Aphrodite thinks you picked her because she is the most beautiful, but the other goddesses think you didn't pick them ONLY because of their existing vows.If you can swing that, your odds of being cursed by the other goddesses for your choice drop tremendously.
>>137435051Believe it or not Lovecraft didn't simply drop dead the instant he finished writing the stories that she read for the video.He was as a matter of fact a human being with multiple facets to his life who lived for decades after that point and changed his opinions over time.Would it be fair to just label Red as "that chick who said black people are gorillas"?
>>137442255>4. believes that if you don't beat your kids society will collapseThat part is objectively true though
>>137443009Try a find just one work of sci fi or fantasy that doesn't blatantly contain the author's fetishes.Just one
>>137403080BasedNeither is 'Aro'
>>137457927Nah, beating your kids is bad for them and societyLook at who still beats their kids nowadays. Blacks, Mexicans and White Trash
>>137459008>Look at who still beats their kids nowadays.Look at who doesn'tDo you think any of the shit that permeates modern society would have ever happened if these people got smacked as kids?
>>137459470Angry Karens in Starbucks or cartel violence HMMMMM tough choice
>>137459470Bullying should be allowed, but discipline can be maintained in ways that don't lead to your kids chomping out
>>137459564Cartel violence can only exist because the cartel is kept flush with money from the drug trade, which is financed by white people that never got hit as kids because limp wristed faggots like you convinced their parents not to.Hit the kids you hit the cartels in the wallet simple as.
>>137451104Is this an edit or an alternate thing she did
>>137459570This. Kids will push their limits as much as possible and as adults you have to instill punishment. Firm but not excessive.
>>137406041based
>>137459789Edit
>>137399109>having FEMALE characters dieftfy
>>137451104How would you write a mythological style dating sim ?Like setting Love interests Bad and good endings Etc.
>>137460595Base it off of the best dating sims out there and also mix it strategy games based in ancient history.
>>137460595Gods seem very fickle so I'm thinking something like the Lova Hina GBA game, where you're VERY likely to just straight up die if you do or say the wrong thing. Basaically you have to balance your relationship with all the GOds based on their preferences.>Athena was revered for her wisdom and unmatched intelligence>"Did you know that a woman's womb can actually move around her body? I thought that was pretty interesting haha.">>137459470There have been no studies showing any benefits of beating your kids. But there have been multiple studies showing how badly it affects their development. It's not really up for debate, is it?
>>137460595I would have it be a mix of historical and mythological and set it in a sort of condensed version of the area i.e. Disneys Hercules where it a days travel from Sparta to Athens. I would also make it so that to win the heart of your preferred mortal/deity you would have to actually know shit about them and say things that appeal. Like if you want Athena talk about strategy and pick intelligent or clever dialogue. The ending would be based on how much time spent and how you interacted with them. Like if you fuck up with Apollo you get turned into a plant. Or if you succeed with Artemis you get a tomboy hunter gf but also the sweet hunting skills. And lastly I would have it so you can pick from a pool of starting professions (historian, poet, soldier, sculptor, helot, etc) and which ever one you choose effects your base stats.
>>137453262For an ace who draws very simple looking people, her drawings have a lot of sexual energy. I'd totally fuck that doodle.
>>137461694I think you're just very horny, anon.
Red going "akschually Artemis isn't a lesbian she's demiromantic asexual" really reminded me of how many words people have made up for "person who sometimes isn't horny"
>>137403448>NetflixVaniaBesides a sorta mediocre finale, NetflixVania was fucking excellent what are you talking about.
>>137395883Took a course in mythology last semester. The professor had never taught the subject before, and this stupid fucking faggot would always email him her videos to play during class. I really started to hate this stupid beast, had never seen her before then. Surprised to see her here desu
>>137461879They're committed to their labels, besides Artemis strikes me more as "I don't like sex and love because that's energy that could be spent on the hunt. And I don't fuck with anyone who doesn't think the same exact way"
>>137461977I hate it so much! I can only hope the Mario movie finally, FINALLY convinces people that faithful adaptations sell.>>137461694I fel the same but I may just have a thing for girls who can draw cute shit.
>>137400284The rampant incest. To clarify, I don't mean "lots of incest" I mean "literally like 5 or 6 generations straight of nothing but sibling/parent fucking". The Ptolemy family tree is more like a family pretzel. They were basically the real life Targaryens except they didn't limit themselves to just brother/sister. They had pretty much every combo possible.
>>137410659My man they literally had an elite military group specifically made of homos, who's big reputation was that being homos made them fight better. Also all the pedastry going around. Ancient Greece wasn't full of rainbow waving homosexuals, and they probably wouldn't get along with the modern LGBT movement or agree with their views, but they absolutely had a good amount of man-on-man lovin going on even when you set aside the modern trend of seeing literally any form of close male bonding or camaraderie as gay behavior.
>>137462900>Whenever a man was slain, his lover would fly into a rage and fight like as menI'm not gay but that's beautiful
>>137463010*2 men
>>137460595Here is what you do: a greek myth dating sim where you are wooing various mortal/demigod mythological figures (Medea, Helen, Circe, Medusa, Arachne... Tiresias? etc) but the big gimmick is that all of those figures of myth are backed by GODS. If you just try to woo the girl, but don't curry favor with the gods that claim dominion over them, you are going to be in for a bad time. Some girls only have a single patron deity, others might have multiple and you need to be in good standing with them all to avoid getting fucked over. There may be one or two of the gods that you can secret unlock as romance options as well, but thats the extreme hardmode option. Most of the time you just want them to give you the thumbs up so you can make your move on your girl of choice without getting cursed for doing so. Likewise, having other gods in low favor can fuck you over as they ruin things for you purely out of spite, so you need to balance the favor of the gods carefully. And all of this is an extra layer on top of the usual dating sim stuff for the girl you actually are going after.
>>137463218I like this
>>137463218Different anonAdding in to this. Sometimes you get questions with 4 possible answer. There's a 1 in 4 chance an answer will end with Zues changes to X thing and fucks your girl.
>>137463845I like to think the plot is you can only bang Zeus' daughters because every other female in the setting has already been raped by Zeus.
>>137460595The big issue with the Greek pantheon specifically in the setting of a dating sim is that 2 of the main goddess everyone knows, Artemis and Athena, are eternal virgins. Though I guess the MC could be a massive chad and nullify the blessings.Also IDK maybe make all the male gods female.
>>137453262>Athena is safest, also I unironically had a bit of a crush on her when I was younger. I was a weird teenager.Yeah I can see whyBlonde, grey eyed, the smart/wise kid, daddy's girl, volcel, cool accessoriesHas that "Student Council President with glasses" energy
>>137464755She's a cruel smartass, she was always my least favorite. I do find it interesting that the strongly misogynistic Athenian society credits her with inventing their legal system which they were so proud of. I guess they only considered mortal women to be useless.
>>137464800Student council presidents are also cruel petty smartasses if they're not protagonists
>>137464951Possibly, I can't really think of any. I don't watch anime like that.
>>137457898No, because one mention of an presumed allegory in a single video =/= multiple key factors in multiple stories that all relate back to the same idea/belief. Again, she's not demonizing lovecraft nor people who enjoy his mythos, she just disagrees with his social views. Why are you acting like its an attack in (you) in particular?
>>137464800>>137464755I usually read her as more the stoic and wise with the right amount of softness type, same with Guanyin after I read MonkeyShe's Athens patron deity. Like naturally misogyny on a societal levels can't be "WE HATE WOMEN THE END!" because firstly you need women even the most patriarchal of societies and the Greeks very much had a concept of love and romance. The fact goddesses exist rather than just Gods and the moral holes they cum into to get more Gods means a certain amount of recognition. So it's not THAT weird that Athens could respect Athena, especially since she's literally a woman bore from THE man. She's the perfect NOT LIKE OTHER GIRLS, she can be all the good parts of women.Also wasn't the first court case Prince murders his stepmother and his defense is "the bitch deserved it!"?
>>137465775>wasn't the first court case Prince murders his stepmother and his defense is "the bitch deserved it!"?As I recall it was more along the lines of "she murdered my father and thus it is my duty to avenge him" the sticking point being that while he did have a duty to pursue vengeance for his father, murdering family is still a huge no-no, even if you're murdering family to avenge your murdered family. So he was caught between two ironclad cultural taboos, and couldn't follow one without breaking the other.
>>137406101it is a buzzword.
>>137465775She's basically the anime waifu of athenians.
>>137466276No doubt. My favorite buzzword was "2 Scoops" because I can't tell what it's about. Like, 2 scoops as in big news? Or is it evoking the feeling of when you get 2 nice big scoops of ice cream? Both are applicable and that's why buzzwords add very little to any discourse.
>>137461272>Or if you succeed with Artemis you get a tomboy hunter gfYou know if you go down the Artemis path you'd probably end up as a femboy twink to fit in with the rest of Artemis' hunters.
>>137466585It's making fun of when Trump getting two scoops of ice cream at some bullshit White House thing was a news line for a few days.>>137466700Artemis liked her some manly men, it's just said manly man also liked manly men apparently.....and her brother murdered him.
>>137466700One wonders what Artemis stories didn't get passed down. Probably lots of degenerate fetishes, going by what's on the internet and that us humans are basically the same as back then.
>>137443003Here's the thing, it's really not. The reason he keeps going back to the "male authority figure gives a lecture about the driving philosophy of this story" well is because Heinlein, by his own admission, isn't good at character writing. He likes worldbuilding and exposition and he'll take the shortest, easiest route to turn that stuff into an actual story.
>>137466982Like Isaac Asimov.
>>137466940Honestly I wouldn't be suprised if there were alot of stories where male characters who were such chads that they slept with both Artemis and Athena and took their V cards but they never got written down due to their debatibly sacrilegious undertones and the fact that it's impossible for every wank fic protagonist to take their virginity.
>checked out the deletedNobody told me this bitch was a pittyqueen.
>>137467070Plus the romans were prudish and most works survive through them. Red's videos has made me realize just how much the sources color these tales, like the idea of accuracy seems to not have existed back then. Stories were just rewritten to better suit the culture they were presented to. At this point, if anything about norse mythology isn't written on a runestone, i don't believe it.
>>137467168Yeah, honestly the thing that I enjoy the most about her mythology videos is how much they highlight that the idea that there was ever a 'definitive' version of any myth is just a pipe dream, every story was a moving target and gods and monsters you take for granted being a certain way had a hundred different versions before and after the one that you remember. Stuff like the previous version of the greek pantheon where Saturn was the head god, or Aphrodite being literally just Ishtar in greekface, or the mystery cults. Or Loki maybe being something that the Norse people didn't add to their legends until after contact with the christians.
>>137467105What happened?
I like this woman.
I will never understand why people act like they're personally insulted or threatened when somebody says they're an ace. Like they MUST be lying or something because someone doesn't feel the same way they do, it's weird.
>>137405737someone put it through the voice ai thing
>>137457927Beating your kids will make them like watching baby monkey torture videos in their 40s.
>>137451409I didn't much get the last part of your statement, but her whole point is that she doesn't get the appeal. Which is a good point. I don't get it either. Even in 40K, which is supposed to be the origin of grimdark, I only find reason to care about the setting or characters when they stray from grimdark.
>>137467541You don't feel anything touching your genitals? Get the fuck out of here. The definition of asexual is, experiencing no sexual feelings or desires. Is touching your genitals not a sexual feeling? Could've fooled me.
>>137467105What?
>>137459008yeah guess who's taking over the country?
>>137467541If you get horny you're not ace, it's that simple.
Do aces jack it?
>>137467684Human beings can have fucked up brains that are sexually attracted to kitchen tiles or feces but not having sexual attraction is somehow too unbelievable for you.
Strange to see a Red/OSP thread hit bump limit
>>137467830Of course. Everybody does. Maybe they don't do it as much as some percieved masturbation standard that's probably made-up but don't insult my fucking intelligence.
>>137467840Yes, unless there is a physical affliction that prevents sensation in your genitals you should have sensation in your genitals.
>>137467684>>137467901That's got nothing to do with it. Getting a hard on is partly purely mechanical, when you're younger you can be walking through an empty trail and get a boney. It's getting aroused as a result of seeing particular things that is sexual attraction. A gay guy won't feel anything towards a woman, a straight guy won't feel anything from a man, an asexual doesn't get anything from either.
>>137467828What if you don't?
>>137467947I've been clear and concise. Do you feel anything touching your genitals? What does it feel like?
never ask an 'asexual' chick her body count
>>137468052So you're saying I have a chance with her?
>>137453389>prisoners are technically slavesOnly if you use them as a labor force. Which the US does
>>137467974If you don't get horny then you are ace.There's no middle ground, you are either ace or you're not.
>>137467830I do.
>Red posting is so powerful that a beat the limit post score of 500Redchad I kneel
>>137467168Don't forget that the whole concept of "canon" was invented by early Christian scholars.
