Apparently Yugo was graduated due to unacceptable behavior. Due to the fact they didn't say terminated, willing to bet it wasn't something he could get fired for but they mutually decided to call it quits.

Yugo Asuma just got nuked apparently. Sounds like Yugo and any color had some form of disagreement and he's just... poof. No graduation stream or anything. Just a tweet about graduation and that's it.

Nice! Glad he's finally back, doubt I'll be able to catch that live though, unfortunately.

NijiEN D&D with Aia as DM, Rosemi, Maria, Nina, and Ren as players. Ren has promised to not kill his teammates.

During the Pokemon SV stream rush, I gotta say, outside the Tempus Soul Link stream, this is probably the second most entertaining one I've run across(in english, anyway): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOAUOZA1-r0

Newer VTuber, def worth checking out though. Ikea shark stream by her is also worth checking.

A discord I go to has a guy who has been relatively reliable with leaks in regards to vtuber drama stuff(but still, take it with a grain of salt), is saying Vesper got suspended because he ghosted management on the JP end and someone took offense, because he(Vesper) just assumed the EN management would handle it for him.

So I doubt this will be anything serious, probably just trying to remind him it's a business and not just hanging out with the boys kinda atmosphere if true. Sucks they're messing up the Pokemon Soul Link and D&D run for it though, probably the most fun streams I've seen in a long while.

Vesper suspended it looks like.

Honestly the only Pokemon streams I'll probably be watching are Enna's streams, mostly because she's basically new to the series, and her reactions are... Interesting. Even though it is BDSP.

Airi from Phase Connect is playing Tactics Ogre for those interested:

Off Collab apex. Magni is currently controlling the mouse, Vesper is controlling the keyboard.

Also, a bit late, but: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjLL-vW2niE

Enna probably giving the realest apology for an internet personality I've ever heard, honestly, at the beginning of this--prob have to check the VOD at this point. She didn't write anything or even think about it and did pretty well.

Pomu's carving a pumpkin and it's giving me anxiety tbh. She's already almost skinned her hand trying to make a Pacman pumpkin like four times.

Edit: Joined late, it's actually supposed to be the nijisanji logo.

Starts at about 3hr14min if the timestamp doesn't work.

Saw the backlash coming from a mile away even though it felt obvious to me she was talking about certain activities he does as opposed to race. Idk though, just more vtuber drama I guess.

I tuned in late to her Mass Effect stream and decided to watch the full thing from the beginning later. Not sure if I'll keep up with the whole video series, but I do enjoy watching vtubers play games I've played in the past and giving their own insights. I'd be overjoyed to watch a vtuber play Deus Ex.

Smaller VTuber, but I watch her when I can due to the fact she plays a lot of classics: https://www.youtube.com/c/Onolumi/featured

I believe the original Deus Ex is on her list at some point in the future.

So, it sounds like Mikeneko is blaming Delutaya for telling the gossip youtuber the rumors that started her downfall, i think?

Judging by what just happened I feel like yeah, it's Ame lol

It's time for the collab:
Pomu PoV:

Didn't think to post it here, but this VOD is totally worth watching. It's wrapping up with one more experiment.

Roomie-chan ran in and forced Enna to make a failed volcano, gave her a tote filled with black liquid, and... the entire volcano bit was a hilarious mess.

the more we hear about micheal cat the more I wonder how it is she didn't implode earlier.

I kinda feel like it probably shaved years off her managers life, most likely.

kirbymuncher posted...

those two are the drama gift that keeps on giving

They really really are. Basically the vtuber version of a soap opera.

Apologies for the double post, but apparently Mikeneko/Nazuna is suing Delutaya over some form of gossip/perceived slander? Dunno the whole thing but some VTuber news source will likely cover it soon(if they haven't already).

Just caught wind of it via a friend on Discord.

Edit: It's making the rounds. Delutaya's being accused of slandering Mikeneko, contacted her to apologize directly and find out what she said to fix it, and Mikeneko hit her with the "I'm not talking to you without a lawyer present." and "I don't need to show you proof."

Kiara and Pomu wanted to collab for the longest time, but HoloEn-NijiEn collabs didn't start until Regis and Alban got theirs scheduled for whatever reason.

Regis talked about it, said he and Alban just basically told them(staff) "We're both friends, so why no collab?"

I feel like the Stars staff is much easier to work with, and it just opened the door entirely.

Reminds me of the endless amount of Sakura visual novels Winged Cloud develops. Idk why Hololive plays these games so much. I guess it's super easy to get perms for them.

I always figured that was the case, making them a good "in between games" game.

Damn, am I glad that's finally happening. Honestly, I kinda didn't expect Hololive EN and NijiEN to Collab anytime soon, was ready to just take the win with HoloID and HoloStars EN.

Almost forgot to put it up, but Regis and Alban's collab going on right now.

Date isn't nailed down yet, but looks like Selen will be having an Apex Collab with Ollie and Zeta soon.

So it's finally happening, albeit with Holostars and NijiEN.

Alban and Regis play Terraria together at 6pm EDT on the 15th.

Delutaya's having a guerilla karaoke(possibly here, YouTube is being difficult about disabling superchats apparently.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97qOu9DtLPM

Rosemi's playing RE7 for the first time

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qlig9NLAokg

Uruka's playing Trombone champ. Should be a pretty damn good time.

This man just suckered people in and got them to believe super toxic shit.

First time I heard of him, don't remember the content, but it started with some kinda nice general "self help" style stuff and then got real weird real fast. Friend of mine showed it to me.

Luckily was able to convince him this guy is one of those self help con men.

I think Liver is closer to the japanese terminology for "streamer" iirc, one of those "gets weird in translation" deals. Could just be BS I picked up somewhere though, just remember hearing it semi-frequently in an old discord I hung out in.

And... eventually the world's largest economy, let's be real, it's coming.

Debatable if the past couple years have shown anything. Eventually maybe, but eventually could be a long time, but for now they seem fully content to keep that shotgun aimed at their foot.

Sad that Pomu and Rosemi won't be on it not(unless I missed them on another program, super tired).

I pay 0 attention to the genshintwt space until shit like this happens. I didn't know that it got to the point where they were doxxing him. What a gross overreaction by these people.

Especially since they even targeted other VTubers(try to avoid drama, don't know who. I think from the tone it was other Luxiem members), but the main focus was definitely Mysta. It's kinda ridiculous.

Not really a fan of his, but holy damn antis went hard on Mysta over some drama about mispronouncing a genshin character name(Tighnari as Thigh Gap, clearly a joke).

So far they've plastered his personal Twitter all over along with his real face, managed to post his and several other streamers real life locations, and go absolutely bonkers with hate.

Damn when did CE get so plebeian? Seems like just a year or two ago most people here accepted the science that PC is the best

Honestly, there haven't been many things in the way of genuine graphical improvements, it's all just gimmicky shit. As a result, horsepower through games with a PC can be done with cheap hardware that's basically equivalent to the consoles.

Due to the success of the Switch it wouldn't surprise me if Switch 2 slots itself right as the low end and gets a lot more third party support.

It doesn't make sense to restrict games to high end machines anymore. That's going to include the PS5 and Xbox Series X. Even Valve is going to push the Steam Deck too.

People are getting to be more mobile again, as things loosen up restrictions wise. I can definitely see the future of gaming in handheld/home hybrids.

Basically right now since Microsoft is going hard for PC, for this gen it's basically: Low end is XSS, Mid-range is PS5's/XSX, High end is PC.

The upside of PC is both price and performance can be tweaked to meet what you want for it.

There's really very little difference in any of it this gen, and the few exclusives there are are... either old games or not really noteworthy thus far.

Same for a lot of these kinds of things. People are willing to die on a hill for a cause when it's just shouting at people, but the moment a tough decision faces them in the real world they fold like paper.

Trump is anti going to prison. He'll go whatever way he thinks helps his chances.

Even if it's the same old, there's something to enjoy in life. Confirm.

Probably not. I'm not exactly anti social but letting anyone I don't know sleep in my house would fuck me up anxiety wise

Some people fully expect their job to be "enjoyable" and that is just not possible for every job so I don't think it has to be a standard at all.

Honestly, it should be tolerable but working on a field you actually love is a disaster waiting to happen.

I used to love building PCs, jumped in to it during COVID to make side cash (and see how mining rigs were made) and now I feel like I'd rather face check a desk than crack open a PC

Honestly it's more beneficial to companies to have quiet quitters than actual ones. You're very likely doing more to help them than yourself.

Well then there's also the rationale behind it. When DOES someone get to say that and have it actually mean something and when is it just some punk trying any way he can to avoid being blamed (or even simply having to feel bad) for his own actions?

As someone who grew up in a terrible situation, I can honestly say... Crime is a fucking attractive option when you see only darkness on all sides of you. It's a quick route to either pulling yourself out of it(theoretically), ending up in prison which is whatever--at least it's a roof and meals, or getting dead which... Is how you'd probably end up anyway.

Only reason I didn't is because I had two decent people in my life I didn't want to disappoint.

Simple fact is, just asking that question of when is... The only true answer is that it's up to you. Everyone is gonna have their own bias and judgments, but the simple fact is it's hard to understand how someone got in to that situation. No one is going to change your mind about how you feel about people like this, so it's easier just to accept the difference in opinions.

The level of corruption and terrible work of the US police force is beyond belief

I would love to say it's corruption or terrible work ethic, but in this case I would say it's just proof we hire the literal dumbest fucking people we can as cops.

Solid_Sonic posted...

But not learning a sense of empathy or compassion enough not to harm others to make up for your societal shortcomings?

Like I can get saying that's society's fault but it's still inexcusable. At the end of the day we all share what is at least assumed to be a CIVIL society where there are rules and expectations. Just because your circumstances were unfortunate doesn't mean you get to barge into a restaurant, throw the cash register on the floor, and then try to steal someone's purse without even a hint of shame.

I'm not saying it justifies it, just that it isn't a wrong statement.

Quiet quitting is just wallowing in self pity tbh. People would rather force themselves to suffer and justify it than move on or power through, literally choosing the hardest way possible.
