Go watch my rant videos blah

You see the title. I've been trying to stay on my video grindset. I'm not that good at it, BUT go watch the videos that I have posted onto my YouTube channel, ICHIGO MONOCHROME. Nya rawr.

The videos are kind of rant rambles about fandom craziness, or whatever. I don't know, I was just going off the top of my head. 

In that first video with the Fairly Odd Parents thumbnail, I was just stunned at the audacity of the stalker mindset. The pure delusion that comes with being so obsessed with a child cartoon character, that it wills you to repeatedly DM and then email the voice actress your unhinged love manifesto. Not a confession towards the actress mind you, an angry message declaring your LOVE FOR THE CHILD CHARACTER, and your offense at her insinuation that said character could love another cartoon her own age.

The other two (1) (2) was true, from the heart, dissatisfaction with the state of horror media commentary. Specifically when it comes to the sloppy, immature way people talk about amateur projects. 

It's so annoying seeing these shitty copy-paste thumbnails on shitty copy-paste videos just dogging on a highschoolers art project. Whether it's a webseries, a video game mod, a fangame, whatever, there is simply no reason to be going AVGN mode in your hobby critique video. Especially not when it's so painfully obvious by the cracking, theater kid voice work, that it was made by a KID.

Like, we get it. one-hit Slenderman monsters aren't original. They aren't fun to play against because there isn't any learning curve. The monster designs are boring. 

BUT... These. Are. Not. Professional. 

This isn't triple A $90 gaming. This is a zero dollar Minecraft mod that doesn't even take 10 minutes of your life. By forcing yourself to make a mountain out of a mole hill for content, you forced yourself to suffer for who knows how much longer just to collect footage. Forced yourself to sit there thinking about it, writing about it, editing a thumbnail for it. And for what? To scrape content off the back of a nerdy child? As stupid as it sounds, it's the dumb things that get under teenagers skin. Mfers will tear them down, call them cringe, say their creation is the dumbest shit they've ever played, all for the chance of a mediocre algorithm bump.

And then it doesn't even work because they're posting low quality content in an oversaturated genre with an exchangeable video thumbnail.

Let the damn kids make their stupid nextbots and fnaf clones. This is the practice run. Let them play.

Rant over. Nya.

I'VE BEEN GONE FOR SO LONG AHHHHHHHHH!!!1

AHHHHHHHH!!! WHAT THE FAAAAHHHHHHHH–––––––!!!

    Okay, okay, okay. So I've been gone. It's fine. We're fine. It's not like I was on my ass doing nothing the whole time. I was bouncing between a bunch of different projects during my absence. Like uhhhhhh, some writing, some social stuffs, ermmmm, I drawed some, and did some 3d modeling, and you know... things.

    Okay jokes aside, I have been uploading to my YouTube channel. It's mostly just me talking/ranting about some things, but I do have some variety content planned for the future.

Here's the video I made criticizing Crunchyroll for how they run their shitty streaming service. Money grubbing POSs. 

    Making videos isn't as hard as it used to be for me, because I used to get so burnt out trying to figure out what the hell I'm doing. Talking isn't as hard for me anymore either. It comes a lot more naturally now, and I'm better at articulating my self. My voice doesn't get as hoarse after recording as it used to. It's a little difficult still, but I'm getting a lot better! I've even hit 200 subs!!!@! We're so back baby!!!!!!

All that is good, but I should really start going back and making posts for the stuff I was up to during the gap. Ehhhhhh but I'm still tired most of the time though... Why me???
    And I've been thinking about posting to other video sites to cross promote my content in more places. One of them being SpectraVideo on PeerTube, but I need preapproval to make an account there (to prevent spam). If I knew enough Japanese to subtitle my videos in Japanese, I could try posting to NicoNicoDouga, but I'm nowhere near that level yet...

New Video: Gen Z stare

I finally uploaded to my YouTube channel. I'm trying out a minimal editing approach because I lowkey hate editing my vids. Go watch it!!!

But yeah, like I was saying in the video, people in 2025 are just ridiculously rude. Idk if was the pandemic preventing these types of people from getting hit in the mouth for acting this way in public, or what, but the Regina George wannabe bullshit needs to gtfo. 

Way too many people think that, because they can be their own one-man paparazzi on the internet, that they can terrorize the general populace with their diva complex. Like, you're not a celebrity, you're a sociopath, borderline delusional, and completely insane.

I mentioned that case with the lady who shot her manager, because she thought she was "out of pocket", because the manager sent her home twice in 2 days. 

Like you really can't tolerate rejection THAT BAD, that you KILLED somebody? Over a job? At McDonald's?

Was the clown fuckin you? was the Ronald Mc D good? Cuz there ain't no fuckin way that you stab some lady MULTIPLE TIMES over some mid ass McDonald's pay. Go apply for Burger King. And come to find out, she finna get hit with a premeditated murder charge because she FILMED HERSELF CRASHING OUT ON TIKTOK. Making threats!

Another (way less insane) example, some years back this Starbucks barista on TikTok made this dumb post talking about "Get ready with me to make this man his milk shake at 7am." with the nastiest attitude ever. JUST PUT THE FRIES IN THE BAG, BECKY! GET OFF THE CROSS! She really posted that shit like people would agree with her. Everybody in the comments was flaming her. Stay in your lane, and run bro his Mocha-Frappe-Fucking-Whatever, with his 3 shots of heart attack juice, 7.25$ Regina George. 

The cognitive dissonance of people with a grandiose sense of self, and cog in the machine lives, needs to be studied.

I'm fashionable sometimes...

If you don't know, (which you don't because I haven't posted about it yet) I do a lot of puttering around with Philly J-Fashion. So I can occasionally be seen being cool and fashionable when I'm not sitting in my cave. 

Which is super fun and cool, but I often forget to post about it. Which technically isn't necessary, but I'm trying to run a blog so wtf.

Anyway, here are some of my outfits from when I was out with them. ദ്ദി

I made a post and a crusty video about the first convention I went to, and forgot to post anything decent about it here.

Philly J-Fashion held a panel there, so instead of attempting to cosplay, I put together (heavily planned) this cult party, visual kei and ouji inspired coordinate. Idk why, but I was randomly super into cult party kei at the time. Although I still do find it really cute and underrated so I think I'll keep slowly collecting more cult party type stuff.

New cosplay stuff came in!

AAAA my uwabaki arrived!!! I also picked out a hat to go with it.

8/13/24 Catch up log~!

Yesterday was my friends birthday. We planned on going to Dave & Busters, but our group was too big and we didn't have enough chaperones to ratio out the under 21s apparently. (¬_¬) Idk if the policy on the website wasn't updated or this location has specific rules, but it was really annoying having plans diverted. Luckily we weren't too far from the harbor park area so it was still chill.

Thoughts on my first couple live streams.

  HIIIIIIII! Sorry I haven't written here in a little while. I've been busy working on my yt channel trying to learn how to stream.

This last saturday I went live on my youtube ICHIGOちゃんねる and it was actually way simpler than I thought it would be. Hosting the stream wasn't even that bad. Going live from my phone helped streamline the whole process, although streamlabs is fairly limited. 

My set up was pretty busted. I was literally live from my basement with the tv in the back, but I think it suited the weird, older internet type vibe, haha.

Anyway, I had fun chatting with my friends, so I'll probably go live again Saturday.
