fucking Mother's Basement is so hopelessly brainrotted, it's almost sad

Lmfao. I challenge anyone to try and watch one of his videos and tell me they honestly understood most of what was said.

I've more or less given up on finding good content creators that cover games or anime. Which is unfortunate because that means the content I listen to while doing chores or something is extremely heavy, leftist stuff. And it's important to stay aware but goddam do constant reminders of hellworld wear you down.

I suppose he has that kind of brainrot too (though maybe I share it with him, since I get everything that's not a vintage anime reference), but I meant the kind of brainrot where what he is saying is very clear and what's more bewildering is why he saw fit to say it. The "Hottest Trash" videos are prime examples, where every fifth entry or so he starts talking about how hot children are.

I still listen to almost every video he puts out, but mostly because he's devolved into being a gourmand rather than an amateur analyst most of the time, and curation is helpful to me since I can't be bothered to keep up with everything myself.

Oh my lord. I think that's a step above brainrot

True. I used to follow a blog for this but since they died it's been hard to find a good source for a good summary of what's good.

So you are telling me there’s a niche for us to fill. Be the change you want to see in the world

There's a part of me that wishes I could, but it's not just a matter of making the effort to produce adequate videos, but also withstanding an eternal tide of weeb reaction, because much of what you'll get as a reward for offering due criticism. Then, even if you suffer for five years or longer through that shit and cultivate a sizable audience, there will be an even bigger torrent of reaction that might manifest into little campaigns against you. I've seen tiny artists and big critics alike get buried in that shit and it gives me anxiety second-hand.
