I started getting into YT in 2012 for hair dye tutorials, which grew into watching Lolita and other weeb channels, then I got into jvloggers and now I even watch normie lifestyle channels. I'll share a bunch of faves.

For anyone wanting to up their online privacy I recommend Naomi Brockwell TV.

And at the risk of sounding like an autistic boomer woman, this guy gives a decent run down PowerPoint style on online privacy and secure and what’s going on for noobs like me. It’s less soy face though if that matters to you

I’m particular with these tech channels coz I hate the way tech bros talk so if anyone has more I would like to check it out

My little sister used to love these things but I always thought they looked nasty. I remember the ps2 game being really weird with this make up system that let you turn the girls into horrible clowns. That and awful roller skating controls.

When I was a kid me (asian) and my asian friends used to draw ourselves blonde with blue eyes. Think it's better now though because they have different races/body sizes of Barbies.

Anonymous 38134

I will always love the classic Barbie collection, Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper and Barbie in the Nutcracker were the most beautiful and enchanting toys I ever owned.. I still regret giving them up because now I see barbie collectors would give an arm to own either one of those.
I personally think there is nothing wrong with Barbie being conventionally beautiful, Barbie was never supposed to be realistic in the first place I think.
I don't like the current dolls and they ruined the appeal of the ethereal looking dolls.
I also loved the monster high and Ever after high dolls and there is not much difference I think.

When I was a kid, I didn't like them because they're girly. I also avoided anything pink and glittery. Girly things were always being made fun of or shamed by my brother and father and I didn't want to be seen with something so embarassing.
There are reasons to not like super slim long mega-consumerist women in permanent make-up plastic dolls produced in sweatshops and all that, but when I see them, I feel a kind of resentment for my immediate family for robbing me of that simple joy regardless… It was probably for the best with barbie specifically tbf, but I wish my family had had more woke reasoning than "woman bad".
…but thinking of it, I wasn't that much of a fan of barbie for other (albeit perhaps adjacenty) reasons too. The ads were always about her going shopping, dressing up and doing her hair and it was just more boring than everything Playmobil and Lego was doing.
If I were to buy dolls for a child now, I'd probably go for smaller dolls that fit in a doll house. Barbies are a bit too big for regular doll houses and too hard, small and adult-looking to hug like baby dolls and plushs. They look like you have to prop them up if you put them in a doll house and don't want them to topple over.

Anonymous 38234

As a fat little brunette girl playing with these and bratz not once did I feel like I needed to look like her. Classical feminine “I’m imagining I look like her”.
I’m not fat now but it didn’t inspire me to get surgery. I think having the dolls + toxic family and friends does it.

Anyone watching Squid Game?

Anonymous 38109

I wish Season 3 ended in a way that tied up more loose ends, like the relationship between In-ho and Jun-ho, after all it was meant to be the conclusion to the story
I like the American recruiter they added, it leaves you contemplating the exterior of the world and hopefully the American adaptation expands on it even if it Gi-hun is dead

The a person in the apartment complex who has been watching it daily for the past couple months, is that you Nona?

Not a lot of character development, I wasn’t wrenched over the characters that ended up dying. So much empty pauses and stares that could have been filled in with more background story, seemed lazy in end.

What exactly is pornographic about this game?

Anonymous 37789

>>37788
TCOAL? It's not overtly pornographic however there are salacious themes in it in regards to the main characters, who are, yes, blood-related siblings. Their relationship is, however, abusive and extremely toxic. The characters both recognize this fact as do their parents. That being said this is far from the only element of the game that is horrible, it is a psychological horror game after all. There is elements of murder, the occult, demonic summoning. Background elements that server as set dressing are that of a corporation inventing the idea of a virus or plague to lock people inside apartment room, eventually kill them, and use them as food. The aforementioned siblings parents sold their children to one of these apartment harvesting operations. There's a lot of stuff going on other than the incest, however that is a main factor in it especially now since the developer has listened to the fandom and is making it that more of a focus it seems. What I played of it I thought it was okay, definitely stomach churning at times which was the intent.

Cousin marriage is. A brother and sister would still get their heads lopped off in Saudi Arabia, hanged from a crane in modern Iran, and face either some form of execution or extensive prison time in any country based on Islamic Law for having sex with each other. Of course, how much even this strict prohibition is adhered to behind closed doors in these countries is an open question, but nonetheless…

Sociologically, cousin incest and sibling incest are very different phenomena. Cousin marriages are historically common even if there is variance in their frequency depending on time and place. They are very frequent among clannish cultures as different family branches marrying amongst each other strengthens extended kinship ties, and there is a strong inherent distrust of anyone outside the clan. Sibling marriages were rare, happening most often in the context of dynastic practices exclusive to royalty or nobility. Which is why the few known occasions when they happened as a general practice across all social strata are remarkable from an anthropological perspective. But the most well documented of those occasions, that being the aforementioned Ptolemaic and early Roman Egypt, doesn't offer any significant clues suggesting that the widespread brother-sister marriages there were driven by the same social forces that motivate cousin marriages elsewhere.

So it's important to distinguish between the two for accuracy's sake. Biologically very similar as then it's a simple difference of degree, but socially quite distinct.

I dunno, that one made me angry. Yeah, his socially captive lesbian mother was emotionally distant and scary to him. She was still the one tending to him when he was sick, and keeping an eye on what he was doing. But he didn't form a complex over his father rarely being home and GIVING HIM FUCKING CANCER. Seriously, the last few pages of the book were him acting like he escaped her terribleness and he'd never be like her, like some sort of victory that was supposed to be cathartic to us.

His little epilogue shows that his father got remarried real quick to a more palatable woman and he just shrugs it off with "well mom was complicated due to her preferences probably but this new one is real nice." Spoiled little shit.

how do i find friends in general thru these apps?

I tried using the cord but every server Id join, it was like everyone already knew each other and felt closed off (id ask an interesting convo starter question related to the server but be be ignored)
then if I tried DMing random people, they either ignore me or think im some scammer. like wtf.

i hate being an autist and genuinely always finding all this confusing. i know how to have a convo and all that, but trying to find the right people + the right environment feels impossible? it just all feels clique-y. how do these people find each other in the first place.

when I do find someone, i ALWAYS get treated as the therapist friend / filler "everyone else is offline so ill talk to u" friend. feels bad man.

You need an excuse to approach people, so joining a group actually doing/learning something makes it easier. You have reason to talk to people and to know them, then it can turn into something else.
