See, I get clips of it from one of my buddies where he'll show me all of the reasons not to watch it (one of the more recent ones involving one of their trans people "breaking" a world record for a game at the event, even though it happened because they literally blacklisted all of the top-10 performers due to not liking them).
sadly yes, it was fun watching them break games.... anyone know where the banned players ended up, or for that matter if theres a competor thats like the old?
I can tell you he's not exaggerating about the "fae" thing. It was AGDQ 2022, so right when this was posted. Somebody linked me a screenshot of the panel at the time. It was Spikevegeta (unkempt nerd and speedrunning's top tranny enabler) and two vtubers. One was a furry, one was the neopronoun creature.
What pains me is that I know some of the OG speedrunners. There's this really cool guy I used to watch named Sinister1 - he was there during the old games of Twitch and he's autistically god tier at Mike Tyson's Punch Out. And regardless of the stereotypes now, he was decent looking, well adjusted, went to the gym, had a full time job, and was a cool guy.
Another guy I used to follow was a fighting game community guy - SRKFunkdoc - super nerdy, but that's about it. Retired to get his masters and now he's a scientist.
These guys probably had a touch of TISM, but they used their tism for entertainment.
Now look at the mess we have... all fucking mentally ill men suffering autogynephelia... blech.
Speedrunning can be interesting from a watching standpoint, simply to see peak efficiency and how to accomplish tasks in manners you'd never consider playing normally. (Which is why glitchless is the only real category, fight me homos)
Its unfortunate that in order to watch that, you need to be exposed to speedrunners themselves who are usually awful all around.
The kind of people who can obsessively play a game over and over again, multiple times a day, for months on end, are not going to be the most mentally sound people.
That's not exactly true. I own a Switch -- I don't play it a ton but I like it for traveling or on the rare day off I get to do basically nothing. But I like to think I'm pretty damn far from an NPC.
While I can appreciate the need to choose your battles and the futility of fighting a battle that's already lost, I don't think forever retreating is a sustainable response to this shit. At some point there is a need to hold and retake ground.
I'm a fan of Danimal Cannon (an actual talented chiptune/guitar dude; does solo stuff and also played with Armcannon and Metroid Metal). Saw he was doing an online concert with a few other artists. Put it on while I was working on something else to listen to the other artists/DJ and waiting for Danimal to start.
The DJ was apparently running a charity for some trans youth organization in Texas. Ugh.
First couple guys were alright, nothing special but listenable.
Third ... person comes on. Blurry camera. Manly looking 'chick'. Starts playing. Not awful. Starts singing. Holy shit, terrible off-key falsetto. Turn volume down to almost zero to wait for Danimal to start. Comments are all, "wow, this is so awesome! You're great!" Ugh.
Danimal starts playing. Has some sweet looking new gear as part of his setup. Plays a good show, as he always does. Ends with "fuck fascism and transphobes!"
God damn it.
Anon isn't wrong. This shit is inescapable if you're anywhere near autistic techies.
"This shit is inescapable if you're anywhere near autistic techies"
I have enough issues dealing with some of these 'tistic pronoun people and their supporters in my day job that I don't even go into certain communities online.
This is why my hobbies and interests that have online communities now are based in reality, the more traditional and conservative, the better.
Gaming and such is solely with family and friends. Don't care about most new media, since anything current that has been contaminated except for a few niches.
This is 100% fucking true. No matter which websites I visit, no matter what games I like, no matter who I talk to, these vile fucking creatures somehow sneak (((their))) way in.
Do you not consider /v/ or /vr/ to be sufficiently free of trannyposting? Even where it is a thing, at least users are well empowered to respond how they should. Generally meaning 42% memes.
/v/ can't string together 4 sentences without accusing each other of being trannies. Usually for disagreeing about if gameplay wasn't bad in a game, or if a story had a message they don't agree with regarding irrelevant morals.
Instead of actual trannies doing their shit, now you have people screaming at secret trannies and demanding they reveal they are doing shit.
Sounds like it is just "the insult word" then. The words change over time, if it isn't trannies it's something else that's invading and ruining their previously high quality forum. The forums functionally stay the same they always were though, quality and all. Buzzwords come and go and people pretend it used to be so much better back-in-the-day, when the same trite discussion rituals were being performed with nostalgic buzzwords.
It was "fag" when I was big into doubleplustwochan. That's just what it was, "you're a fag", "suck a dick you fag". And it feels to me like times were better when we were calling each other fags, even though it's all the same old shit and I'm not even there to soak in what makes it "worse" now. I'm sure it's there though, subjectively speaking, new buzzwords and all.
and thats how it should be the concept of hate speach laws need to die in an incinerator next to old blapshmy laws as they are one and the same both also inevitably lead to compelled speach.
Imagine there's a group of people who routinely shit themselves in public, constantly talk about shitting themselves in public, and insist that it's the best thing ever. And unless you are in 100% vocal support to these pants-sitters you'll get banned from social media, lose your job and be socially ostracized. Now compound this with the fact that everyone but the pants-shitters KNOWS it's disgusting, but won't say anything for fear of the former.
People talk about them because the mind struggles to comprehend how stupid, insane and sick the world has become.
The cool thing about the reactions to this sort of thing, the "This is white supremacy, you're just racist" stuff, is that it goes to show we all understand on some level that those things are reactions to aggression.
Hell, "reactionary" is even used as an insult, as if reaction automatically invalidates itself for being a reaction, like reactions should not exist except as party-curated content on video streaming websites.
"Reactionary" is what communist regimes like ours called the anti-communism, or more exactly counter-revolution. As in siły reakcji (reactionary forces). It's probably from Marx or whatever.
so a few years ago i came across this video going over bionicle lore and stuff
i watched it cause i liked the boncles when i was a lad but i didn't really pay much attention to the lore outside of the two online flash games in the original setting
was a pretty good video turns out bionicle had a decent amount of lore I wasn't aware of and the probably late teenage (do I say man or boy for someone in their late teens? they were male anyway) was quite good at the presentation
few months ago it turns up again and i watch it again and i then check to see what they had done recently
i click on a random video and it looks like they have ground out their hair and then they start talking in a very strange voice and mention about how they haven't put makeup on
ohshitwhathaveyoudonemydude.jpg
so fearing the worst and hoping they had only gone and joined a powermetal band I click on another video and am greeted by the insane visage of a madman in womans clothing with makeup plastered all over their face, for some reason the tip of their nose was black like i dunno trying to look like an animal? the eyes were just overdone it was obscene
well says I was going to watch more of this persons work i did like the boncle video but it would appear he is clinically insane and has gone and chopped his penis off
i think i had a point when i started writing this but tl;dr found a decent video on thing from childhood found video a few years later and it seems in that time the creator of the video went insane
Ive seen some things like this. Sometimes I watch the progression of their videos from sane to insane in an attempt to find out what made them go crazy. It's weird and sad seeing the descent step by step.
I'm going to disagree about the rent free thing not being real. Simply because I actually do spend time on 4chan (because I hate myself) and people will simply devolve into "TROON POZZED GARBAGE" on literally any topic ever. Anime girl with a slightly too sharp jaw? Immediately a tranny game. Game says something negative about a corporation? Tranny commie garbage.
Are people wrong to be paranoid of it? No, discord trannies are real and they do infest fucking everything. But some people are so plugged into that that they can't even have a normal conversation without jumping at their shadow.
They don't leave you alone, so when you by chance do still get some alone time don't ruin it by obsessing about this being some super diabolical plan of theirs to lure you into false confidence.
There's a bit more to this, if you're interested.
Not sure if OP cut it out or if he found the cropped version.
Fuckin savage. We need more of this.
"ersatz" is brutal
Time to start calling trannies that.
oh i like that one
Holy based.
I haven't watched an AGDQ for years. May as well be named Troons Play Games Quick.
See, I get clips of it from one of my buddies where he'll show me all of the reasons not to watch it (one of the more recent ones involving one of their trans people "breaking" a world record for a game at the event, even though it happened because they literally blacklisted all of the top-10 performers due to not liking them).
AGDQ has turned into a sterilized, corporate event.
Give it some more time and it'll kill itself just like they do too.
sadly yes, it was fun watching them break games.... anyone know where the banned players ended up, or for that matter if theres a competor thats like the old?

I'll never understand speedrunning and furthermore why these degenerates seem to flock to it.
Let me watch nerds exploit bugs to get to the end of games faster. Will the excitement never end?
Autism
Many speed runners are autistic Many troons are autistic
That’s the link.

As a nintendo fan it is sad to see that so many nintendo fandoms are breeding grounds for these people.
Of course they are, the target audience is children
Phew
Not all Nintendo fans are NPCs but all NPCs are Nintendo fans
That's not exactly true. I own a Switch -- I don't play it a ton but I like it for traveling or on the rare day off I get to do basically nothing. But I like to think I'm pretty damn far from an NPC.
Time to play other franchises my friend.

The Metroid subreddit is chock full of these retards.
Can't go one day without some comment bitching about how Samus has a nicer figure than them.
This is why persecution is sometimes morally good.
Evil should be hunted.
Islam is right about troons.
I dare one of you to post this on r/4chan - the moderators are based and allow them, but the admins come in and gas them.
I bet half of those replies were shitting on him for using Discord, lol.
The trans communities all have signs of being a cult. Complete with attacking ex-members with extreme prejudice.
GDQ has been a dumpster fire for many years.
Wonderful quote to describe guys who only watch eroge shit
