Road rage. And people get passionate in the fandoms, politics, religion, etc. So they may come into discussions defensively. Basically, the medium alters the message, and dont treat all mediums the same. An offhand comment to a friend isnt the same as a post online. We should recognize that. 5/5

It is as fascinating as it is frustrating. But I think it is a mistake to communicate here as you would in person or in an article/essay.
And while I understand the frustration, communication online is a multi lane highway without lines, rife for confusion, unforseen interpretation, and online 4/5

And the larger the audience, the more likely the alternate decoding becomes. It's why I dont usually post random thoughts here. Who knows how it will be interpreted?
There is a syntax of online posts that lead to certain interpretations. And that diverges from face to face or written syntax. 3/5

I see posts all the time about someone posting something, then talking about bad faith takes, quote tweets, etc. And yes, some are bad faith rage bait.
But also, some are just unintended interpretation of the post. That isnt necessarily bad faith. Sometimes it is just alternate decoding. 2/5

Recently I spoke to a professor/friend about how when we communicate, and he was explaining to me about how we encode our meaning in our communication and the audience decodes it. But due to differences in people, the meaning can have multiple interpretations.

This elucidated posts on this app. 1/5

Oct 24th, 10am, Frodo wakes up in Rivendell after getting stabbed at weathertop.

Its about that time in New Zealand.

Happy Many Meetings day

(I dont know if this is a thing)

This is an EXCELLENT video for any type of creator, or frankly, for anyone participating in fan communities.

It’s a deep dive that’s worth every minute.

Instagram's most annoying feature is ads that arent region specific.

Would you like to try Uygur food in New Jersey? How about this south Indian restaurant in Washington state?
Arabic specialty nuts in Illinois?

Im sad and hungry...

I really try not to even look at studio until the next day.

is that like a subscription streaming? The reason i like a subscription thing is the ability to listen to new music without paying extra.

I am very much not in the apple ecosystem.

So, what's the best music option outside of physical media?

Tidal?

I plan to do the physical media stuff, I just want a supplement.

We lose to everyone...

To be fair, I've had this washer for nearly a decade. Both it and the dryer were on their last legs.

Me this week: wow... we finally cleared off that credit card debt. Feels really good.

Washing machine: does it now? *immediately explodes*

🙄

It's a little awkward going around in public reading a book called "The Only Good Indians".

Like, it sounds ominous, and possibly racist, but it's a horror novel written by a indigenous author about indigenous characters...

But I still feel self conscious when I pull it out at my kids swim class.

image of birthday cake with text next to it. "Cheers to 5 years on youtube! Can you believe it's been half a decade? What an Achievement!

It is a little weird that i hit my 5 year youtube birthday. Sincere thank you to all those out there watching, sharing, and supporting. Honestly, i don't know if i would still be doing it without y'all's encouragement and support.

Is it just me or is youtube having some weird problems right now?

Filming is exhausting

Especially when you wake up at 6am, get kids ready for school. Work a full day. Take care of kids at night, get then to sleep, film for 2 hours. Wonder why you are still in act one of baldurs gate 3 after 2 years...

Dont do youtube kids,
The pay sucks and you're always tired

One of my biggest pet peeves is when media makes mention of someone being a "level 50 dungeon master" as if DMs has some leveling process. it's so lazy and plays to people's ignorance.

it's the same reason i don't watch legal dramas. "but the evidence is circumstantial!"

SO, THE F*&%, WHAT

weird note.

I don't see the option to hype videos on youtube.
is this just a me thing or is it sporadic?

Thermometer showing 98°f temperature.

Gotta love texas in october....🥵

this is more than just marching in full regalia to Broadview and praying outside of it

this is very deftly trapping ICE into the position of having to literally - LITERALLY, to them - turn Christ away from the door

any Catholic ICE officer was probably shook, I’m really not exaggerating

the monstrance doesn’t leave the church very often and is handled with incredible reverence and care. kid altar servers are NOT allowed to touch it, I vividly recall. usually only the priest carries it out and puts it back. if a priest is holding a monstrance he is saying Jesus is PHYSICALLY here

to Catholics, the monstrance is considered the literal presence of Christ. outside of Mass it’s often used for what’s called Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, which is anything from sitting in silence to a whole prayer service with readings and music, with the monstrance on the altar

if you’re not Catholic, let me real quick tell you about the breathtaking audacity of bringing the monstrance with him

a monstrance is a big bedazzled gold ornament with a round glass window in the middle where you put a consecrated wafer, usually the bigger ceremonial one and not the bite-size

found exactly the one use of “evil recoils in the presence of Christ” I am willing to sign off on, HOOOOOOOOLY SHIT

Father Larry did not come here to fuck around

Who's ready for my content shift to korean fusion cooking?

I mean, that is a good point...

So I have a food channel in my patreon discord and it is the most active of the channels. There's more discussion there than in my "tabletop gaming" channel...

You would think im a food youtuber...
