💰 Grifter Conrad Aaron Collins / Diginée / Digibro / Digibrony / Otaku Gonzo Journalism & the Pro Crastinators Podcast - Pedophile, Two-Faced Weeaboo Ponyfag Youtube Analyst Who Wants to be a Loli + Drama, Friends & Enemies

[PurpleFoxx]

Looks like May is still trying to be Digibro? I thought in her video she said that she wasn't all that interested in anime and anime analysis but I welcome more spergy content from her

Hmm yeah looks like shes attempting to carry on with all of this. I honestly don't blame her, she must be pretty lost right now. She spent years and years as Digi's "assistant", learning little more than how to be a pretentious lazy youtuber. Her trying to be one on her own isn't the slightest bit surprising to me.
Either way, if she intends to really go forward with this, she needs to edit these videos better. Talking about anime without showing a single picture or clip has always urked me. I feel like she might actually find some success if she edits these videos to make them visually stimulating. By now she really should at the very least be knowledgeable on how to do this.

 

[Death Grips - Steroids]

47:00 - Digi and his cohost have a (((debate))) in which they both give each other advice on how to grow their channels. Digi's cohost gives him the non-comedic advice of "do what people liked before, like your Asterisk War or SAO long-form videos." Digi is disheartened that he got actual advice and says that he doesn't want to do that even though his audience has been asking it of him for the last 3 years. Digi's cohost may have duped Digi into creating another video series that is more reminiscent of his old videos.


1:04:20 Digi chastizes his cohost for editing the podcast. I don't really think he's joking here. I think Digi truly believes that if you can get away with it you should do as little work as humanly possible and that standards only matter to a very select group of people. He says that if the cohost didn't edit out breaths and other shit that "only 1 person in the comments would notice." Maybe that's true of his current audience.

Trying to grow while also making no effort or any attempt to improve is quite a bold move. Working pretty well, I'd say!

 

[Pierrot Lunaire]

Digi's format wasn't unique but his perspective often was. He seems completely disillusioned with anime now so his content has gone to shit.

Wasn't Digi's perspective always the same shit you see on /a/ all the time, though? I think that what made him stand out was that he was the only youtuber who had the balls to say the average /a/ opinion on camera, stuff like K-ON being a masterpiece or being pro loli.

I think what set him apart was his "verbosity" and yes, like you said, boldness of opinion. Although I would say, the way he tackled topics like design and animation wasn't that common. Discussions of story/characters often were common, but unless it was Akira or some big Miyazaki film, people generally often shied away from technical commentary, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg8S5A7jFX4

Of course this is very much in line with film analysis content "Every Frame a Painting" did on Youtube and Digi has even claimed multiple times that he was inspired by EFAP to look more into technical analysis. Although comparing Digi's scripts back then to know clearly shows his mental decline. Digi's current brain is just a rotten mush of tranny fantasies, drugs and hugboxing on twitter.

It's weird and unfortunate that Every Frame A Painting was great, but also one of the main points of reference for all the shitty "essay" channels that popped up, AND that now when someone says EFAP, it usually refers to the Long Man Bad show.

Mr Pinklett's reviews

Where?

9:18 - Apparently Digibro is doing "dabs" which he explains as doing wax. 3 times a day. On top of drinking a shit ton as well.

What does doing wax mean? You mean like waxing your hair? That would make sense for an M2F but I don't see the relationship with drinking.

"What are Marijuana Concentrates or THC Concentrates?
A marijuana concentrate is a highly potent THC concentrated mass that is most similar in appearance to either honey or butter, which is why it is referred to or known on the street as “honey oil” or “budder.”

What are the street names?
710 (the word “OIL” flipped and spelled backwards), wax, ear wax, honey oil, budder, butane hash oil, butane honey oil (BHO), shatter, dabs (dabbing), black glass, and errl.

How is it used?
It's used a few ways:

• Infusing marijuana concentrates in various food or drink products
• Smoking remains the most popular form of ingestion by use of water or oil pipes or heated in a glass bong.
• Electronic cigarettes (also known as e-cigarettes) or vaporizers. Many users of marijuana concentrates prefer the e-cigarette/vaporizer because it’s smokeless, odorless, and easy to hide or conceal. The user takes a small amount of marijuana concentrate, referred to as a “dab,” then heats the substance using the e-cigarette/vaporizer producing vapors that ensures an instant “high” effect upon the user. Using an e-cigarette/vaporizer to ingest marijuana concentrates is commonly referred to as “dabbing” or “vaping.”

What are the effects of using marijuana concentrates?

Marijuana concentrates have a much higher level of THC. The effects of using may be more severe, both psychologically and physically. "

Just wanted to pop in here and say that Digi singlehandedly scared me into wearing my retainer again. Thanks Digi!

 

[believe all women]

No, I don't think so. I think that's more of BestGuyEver's/Mother's Basement's thing. Digi stood out because he
1) attacked the "review-style" approach to anime discussion (the formulaic "characters are 7/10 soundtrack is 6/10 blah blah blah", a criticism which he deserved credit for), and
2) he was so outspoken about things he didn't like, and was willing to insult popular shows he didn't enjoy, even if he clearly didn't understand them (like watching the first few episodes of Attack on Titan, and criticizing it for being a predictable action show years after that, not understanding that the tonal shifts and subject matter shifts that the show goes through makes it what it is).

Speaking of K-On, I absolutely agree with the comment a few pages back that a fascination with cutesy moe shows seems to be a huge red flag for mental illness. When I watched the first season of K-On out of curiosity, I thought there were a few scenes that stood out, but I couldn't really wrap my head around sitting through another season of it. It just seemed like fluff. Even with fairly good characters, it was fluff. Compare that to something like Hibike! Euphonium, which comes from the same animation studio, has a similar background (high school music club), better characters, better visuals, more emotional substance, more maturity, more variety between episodes...I mean, in terms of everything that matters, H!E blows K-On out of the water. But K-On is the all-time classic, why? Mentally ill schizos like Conrad, as far as I can tell.

I don't think that's a very clear or accurate definition of a dab. Doing a dab is to take a large glob of that concentrate and smoke it through a bong all at once. A dab is generally equivalent to doing a large fraction of a vape cartridge all in one hit.

It's degenerate to do that on a regular basis, let alone three times a day. There's no way you can possibly do dabs all day and accomplish anything but blowing out your neurochemistry.

It's degenerate to do that on a regular basis, let alone three times a day. There's no way you can possibly do dabs all day and accomplish anything but blowing out your neurochemistry.

And to add to this, dabbing as the primary ingestion method of marijuana raises your tolerance extremely rapidly. There was a point in my life when I only had access to dabs, and instead of one normal sized glob on wax putting me on my ass for an hour, it took a relatively large hit to accomplish the same high for maybe a third of the length. Multiply that by multiple weeks, and you're looking at someone who's basically edging so much they lose all sensitivity. It takes more substance at a higher rate of use to achieve the same result, all of which becomes an increasing financial drain. To stop these effects, you need to cut out weed entirely—taking a tolerance break, essentially.

This is like moving from snorting oxycontin to shooting heroin (it's not really as bad as that, but it gives a sense of the scale involved). Do you just go back to snorting pills? No, you really can't if you still want to get that high. It's certainly a major downturn to take up dabs as your preferred method of getting high.

Also in some states wax with a certain level of THC concentration is a felony. At least in 2019, it was felonious in Virginia to possess concentrate with over 12% THC. Maybe that's changed recently, but it's something to keep in mind, as well. This is why you have to be extremely careful with wax, especially if you're driving with it across state lines. Drive into Utah or Texas with a gram of wax that's legal in California, and you could end up in prison for 6 years with a felony.

 

[6thRanger]

I think it would be hilarious if May truly starts doing good analysis and decent editing. Her becoming Digi's successor after the break up and capturing his audience would be surreal to see. All that while Digi takes sketchy HRT, his teeth fall out and he turns his mind into complete mush before his inevitable death at a young age would be, dare I say, kino.

I think what set him apart was his "verbosity" and yes, like you said, boldness of opinion. Although I would say, the way he tackled topics like design and animation wasn't that common. Discussions of story/characters often were common, but unless it was Akira or some big Miyazaki film, people generally often shied away from technical commentary, see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg8S5A7jFX4

Digi was also popular because he was willing to call other Anitubers out for their bullshit. He would no-joke shred these people and say what everyone had on their mind but was too afraid to say. His unkempt appearance with above average technical knowledge meeting this willingness to do aggressive callouts and spout non-mainstream opinions made him seem like part of a kind of Anituber counter-culture.

The scene is more diverse now, but when Digi was getting popular he really set himself apart and seemed to hold himself and others to a high set of standards regarding anime. He was as disgusting, aggressive and autistic as any honest and true anime fan "should" be. He was the ambassador for basement dwelling weebs on YouTube, in contrast to the cookie-cutter MAL tier Anitubers that were around.

Hibike is a drama while K-ON is a slice of life, they are entirely different things. I actually do think that K-ON deserves the hype but I didn't watch it because of the cute girls, I enjoy slice of life as a genre including the shows that aren't about cute girls like Natsume Yuujinchou, Tanaka-kun and even Hyouka (one of the few KyoAni slice of life shows that Digibro hates, also one of the few KyoAni slice of life shows with a male main character, what a coincidence).
K-ON does a lot of the things you expect from a good slice of life anime well, like conveying a specific mood instead of telling a complex story, focusing on the pleasure of the small things in life, conveying the passage of time and such. Every time I go back to scenes like this https://streamable.com/jfra I think "damn, that was a great show".

I honestly didn't mind watching her little seasonal impressions video that she released a few days ago, but maybe my expectations are low from watching Digibro's current offerings. You could tell she was actually excited/interested in doing the video which is more than you're gonna get in a Digibro video these days.

It would be quite ironic if May and Digi's brother both had better anime analysis channels than Conrad. Digi is content with making Hello Fresh cooking videos with another no-name "eceleb"

As for this thread, it'll just be a long wait until' he starts transitioning, next major shitstorm or creepy-ass tweets. I don't know how else I could word it, but Digi has literally become a shadow of his former self and is currently the epitome of a man child embodying all the worst the millennial generation is known for.

His current life is just uninteresting, disappointing and worst of all, sad.

Yeah, that's what's so baffling, few years ago, had he stuck to his guns, grinded out his youtube game by delivering organized content and laid off the drugs, he could have changed the scape of anime media, the same way fantano (his twitter escapades aside) changed music reviews. I was actually rooting for him, when he still gave a shit in 16/17. Now it's just like watching a sad clown act, where you no longer know if you should feel empathetic, point the finger and laugh or just shrug because there is no deliberate entertainment, just unintentional one.

 

[believe all women]

Hibike is a drama while K-ON is a slice of life, they are entirely different things.

I mean, whatever, in my opinion you could say that slice of life is a kind of drama sub-genre. If slice of life seeks to accomplish less than a normal drama, I think it would have to do what it does even better in order to still be worthwhile. There are probably plenty of shows that can be cute and comforting without the lack of focus K-On has (i.e. a bunch of girls just doing little antics to look cute for 30-120 seconds, then switching to something else, over and over).

I enjoy slice of life as a genre including the shows that aren't about cute girls like Natsume Yuujinchou, Tanaka-kun and even Hyouka (one of the few KyoAni slice of life shows that Digibro hates, also one of the few KyoAni slice of life shows with a male main character, what a coincidence).

Interesting comment about Hyouka (which is a show I don't know anything about). One of the things you discover when you research addiction is that eventually, every aspect of the personality gets "annexed" by the addiction to feed it. I think we could call Digi's fixation on becoming female an addiction (many personality disorders work in this way), accompanied by the likely addictions of weed (as we've seen over the past year or two) and porn (which seems to be standard for troons). The person becomes a sort of zombie, and loses their sense of self. To get back to his negative opinion on Hyouka, I now have to wonder how much of Digibro's opinions on anything exist outside his fantasy of becoming a loli. I've noticed that among trannies, simply being a woman or a man is seen as a hobby in itself, rather than a passive state that accompanies having a real life.

 

[Idekanymore]

It's almost perfect in some ways. Other than Youtube what presence will Digi have even had on the world? He literally didn't even work a job. He practically already doesn't exist at this point as it is, other than the miniscule financial burden he placed on the economy through his misuse of money. But even that will be dealt with swiftly by competent and cons

Dude I can't fucking wait. It's going to be hilarious! I'm really hoping this gets to Cosmo levels, only with Digi I bet it could get even wilder.

Do it Digi! Try to speedrun hormones like Cosmo did.

Also dabs definitely explains his current behaviour. Wax is seriously powerful stuff, that can't be understated, and 3 times a day is fucking crazy for Wax.

He's completely given up on life if he's doing that much Wax, because you absolutely can't function at all at that point.

If you've ever been around serious stoners, you know 3 dabs isnt that crazy. It's a lot but its the equivalent of like 3 joints.

 

[stupididiot]

one interesting thing to note is that a doctor wont prescribe you the hormones for HRT if you smoke cigarettes, as the two in combination lead to an increase likelihood of blood clots, strokes and heart attacks. nicotine also reduces your bodies ability to absorb estrogen especially when it's taken orally, so the feminizing effects are substantially lessened.

it was only a few days ago digi was posting selfies while smoking cigs, if they don't quit they could be putting their life in danger.

Quite frankly it elevates the risk no matter what you do. HRT even in women, which used to be prescribed to delay menopause, is known to cause serious side effects. Strokes, dementia, and blood clots are common in people who took it. Many endocrinologists flat-out won't give it to people anymore.
