I discovered at Walmart today that Mr. Beast, that one big YouTube guy, is suddenly creating his own chocolate bar brand. It was really surreal to see it there.
...It was pretty good.
@GelbDraws
This man's only villain marker is his anger issues. He'd be mostly right and reasonable otherwise. Wishes in a system like this need to be vetted, or else someone will wish for something that harms some/everyone else eventually.
@TheStrxggler
I legitimately don't get why they're making pregnant superheroes. It seems like the most important thing a mother could do is rest herself and stay in good health (don't get beaten up) so that the baby could be safe. 🤨
@TheStrxggler
This is like calling women a girl boss and cheering them on for going to work on construction sites, oil rigs, or Alaskan crab boats while pregnant, instead of just taking maternity leave like a sane person.
@OrwellNGoode
This is just a smart way for them to avoid offering employees actual useful amenities, because they can turn around and claim they've already done enough with shit like this.
@SocialNomadRach
Climbing Mount Everest is so brutal that dehumanization is part of the "ritual" of it. It's fucked up, but these climbers accepted it even as they died. They can't be mourned properly since their remains are trapped up there.
@Jeffyboythought

@SyberSaltyy
This is also true in general. Strangers rarely go out of their way to murder other strangers. The first suspect in a case should always be friends, family, or partners. Has anyone even gone out of his way to murder a stranger for being trans yet?
@Merryweatherey
I think you're a bit too nervous, dude. This is the sort of baggage that comes from being a public figure, and most of these types of threats are full of hot air. You need to let this go and continue to engage positively with your real fans, or else haters will manipulate you.
My main problem with "comfort characters" is how they're more accurately used as "coping characters" by people that have such stunted emotional self-regulation that they have to imagine a fictional person giving them pep talks and hugs. It reeks of disordered attachment to media.
We should pirate them even more until this shovelware stops being $15, actually. Go buy Fantastic Danmaku Festival or Mystia's Izakaya instead of supporting creative bankruptcy.
Actually, I think it's a horrible idea to pirate the games of the guy who gave everyone the rights to the entire franchise that his works are based around, giving way to incredible fan creations, both free and monetized, fostering a genuinely incredible online community.
[Toby Fox x ZUN Collab]
The second collaboration between Toby Fox and ZUN has been announced!
Here's a message from Toby Fox and a brief preview of the second collaboration song...!

@GelbDraws
If he starts giving them all back, people might just become more unhappy if anything, knowing that they can't pursue their ambitions regardless. That would lead to mass depression. It's a grey area for certain.
@GrumpyCatterman
Most other women's hatred of catcalling has always confused me because I've never been catcalled in my life. Surely you ought to be at least a little happy to be conventionally attractive to others? 😅
>Makes a week of comics about fat people being loved as they are by attractive people
>Immediately after puts out a fake-out comic about a fat gamer being forever alone
My dude, if you're going to make the shallowest comics possible, could you at least stick to a message?
@AkGoingPIaces
Some AK stories missed for me, but when they hit, they were goddamn excellent. Sadly, I had to walk away from the game because the grind was simply too relentless for me after a while, especially with no quick auto system.
Thinking about Touhou's "decadence" as another infamous tweet recently put it, I wouldn't even bother pinning something like that to any singular Twitter user. Touhou's real representative of "decadence" is Lost Word, a TSA approved cash grab game that goes against doujin spirit.
@AllanEsme
This guy is really speedrunning the breakdown of JP/Western fandom communications. I'm starting to think it might be the worst "popular Touhou channel" of our side.
Cosplayer must have accidentally entered the number for the circus because a whole car of clowns showed up for these comments. I can't stand Genshin, but nice cosplay here with great poses!
Sorry to go dig up this slightly stale tweet now, but I can't help but marvel at the state of Touhou right now where even one of the biggest positive tanks on here couldn't manage a true ratio on what used to be considered a nuclear opinion on the series and its main boss man.
I'm ngl, these are way too gourmet to make at a tiny tailgate for TouhouFest. Maybe you should consider opening up a Chenburger restaurant location instead.
Did I mention that I'm extremely hungry and these look delicious????
Some early concepts of the Chen Burger was a Hawaiian BBQ burger with shredded cabbage and carrots in pineapple juice and a garlic aioli burger with caramelized onions. Ultimately I went with the easier option of a Kewpie mayo and sweet chili sauce combo with pickled red onions.
Actually, yeah, I accepted the dm.
We're having an ongoing conversation right now that is a lot less emotionally charged than what happened in our tweets. It turns out that Gensou and I have been falling into a long cascade of taking every other thing the person says as the worst
@FintheOrb
@GelbDraws
You can wish for something non-maliciously without any bad intentions that can still accidentally screw some other people over. However, I do like your points.
I don't totally understand this.
Is he not able to say no when the gacha companies roll up for his IP? Why do they continue being officially licensed if he hates them?
30:50
(Talking about Touhou Gacha games).
ZUN : Well, since I'm already pretty drunk I'll just say it. I don't like my creation being hijacked by smartphone games.
BeatMARIO : You were worried if it got too popular people would think Touhou = Cannonball, right?
ZUN : Yes. (cont.)
This is what Touhou going mainstream causes. It should have stayed a niche shmup series that gatekeeps all the casuals out who don't know the difference between a survival and a score run.
I disagree, but not strongly. Mainly, danmaku is such an integral part of Gensokyo that most fan content doesn't cover that most people still don't understand it or how it represents beauty in attacks. If more played them, it would be easier to discuss this oft dropped aspect.
If I have to, I'll die on this hill.
You can be a Touhou fan even if you consume content from a secondary source (ie. fangames, anime, music, etc). Putting them in the same category as tourists is stupid.
Goku is an awful "hero" protagonist. He literally puts his friends, family, and the entire world in danger with every fight. That man is more of a t*rrorist than Vegeta started out. Mans even went so far as to give Cell a senzu bean to beat his own son's ass.
Even through machine translation, read the threads a bit if you'd like to see local frustrations with ZUN and Touhou subculture. I already just learned that Touhou cosplayers are a big annoyance to shrines like the Moriya Shrine in Japan for bothering the real worshipers.
@aggressive2hu
@Nmlgc
For me, 2hu was always just a tiny piece in the overall Japanese PC scene. There's always greener pastures.
Sidenote: The series has "anti-threads" on 5ch, so if you want to see a negative Japanese perspective on 2hu, keep an eye on them:
Touhou fans are probably going to hate visit my profile today, so check out my new fish, give him a heart, and drop your angry name suggestions in the comments! 🙂
@baalbuddy
She's an extremely obnoxious boss in the Touhou game designed to be difficult and annoying enough to need a checkpoint system.
Oh yeah, I play the games sometimes.
LRG respects all personal opinions, however we remain committed to supporting an inclusive culture. Upon investigating a situation, an employee was terminated. Our goal as a company is to continue to foster a positive and safe environment for everyone.
It's amazing that people seriously believe that children have the mental capacity to decide for themselves whether they should be taking artificial hormone mixes during essential physical growth periods in their lives.
@luxintrus
> Touhou is dying
> Why Touhou content is awful now
> How ZUN became lazy (drunk)
> How Touhou is slowly killing itself
Something agressive2hu account would team up with more Minecraft haters to make YouTube about it

@SyberSaltyy
Why do you say "obviously" like I would go around following furries of all people?
Anyway, iirc, that one got into a long fight with ValidLs, which, even if there's a decent reason for doing so, will automatically put a target on one's back from gimmick account defense squads.
@PmorkenX
They're funny, even when it's meant to be horny. I'd recognize Asutora's art anywhere, though. His weird anon/Remilia pairing can be surprisingly wholesome.
@NazrinRat
He's totally a normal individual and not a terminally online person that blocks people he's never spoken to before.
Dude loves sitting in a glass house lmao holy shit
Whenever I say that personally disliking ZUN is treated as bring on par with the worst people on Earth, this is the genre of subtweet I keep getting that I mean. Bonus
@NodeYakumo
feature for putting everything into great context.
We have more details on the Touhou x Yomiuriland collaboration. As expected, it's mostly targeted at children. The collab will have 5 rides slightly redecorated to be more Touhou themed as well as the addition of Touhou themed foods. More info to be revealed at a later date.
Is there an actual demand for these annoying ass cringe ironic VNs, or do these people dump their time, effort, and money just to virtue signal their plebbit game at a loss? I really doubt the weebs are buying these.
We're making an ANTI-DATING SIM game where you AVOID cute girls trying to date you!
"I Just Want to be Single!!" is based on 2000s anime and manga and has an Aro/Ace Non-Binary protagonist called Aya.
Coming soon on Steam!
@artwomp
These girls are not beautiful in a standard way that would attract men (probably the metric the company judged you by), but they're pretty kickass for gunslingers. A real shame they were rejected. Soldiers aren't supposed to be eye candy.
Is it just me, or do Touhous just simply not get threatening abilities anymore? I can't imagine them properly as dangerous gods and youkai when the current peak of final bosses right now is stuff like "manipulating item ownership" or "manipulating nothingness."
"Character X has always been like that!"
"No he doesn't"
"Yes he is" *shows evidence from recent retcon*
"No, he doesn't" *shows evidence from the YEARS of history*
"Nuh uh" *shows more evidence from recent retcon*
Touhou 19 and its consequences have brought us here. I was basically treated as absolutely insane for years until that game dropped. The picture has totally shifted now that we have to include what happened to that game and how unimaginably scuffed it continues to be.
