I played Democracy 4 for the first time today.

Had to leave after 3 terms, although my party did win 88% of the vote in the next election. (Didn’t plan ahead far enough to eliminate term limits entirely). No more trade unions or freedom of the press unfortunately and America is a functional one party state with a 36% reduction in democratic protections, but crime is down 65% (41% considering only violent crime) thanks to the massive increase in the police, we have perfect gender equality, working free healthcare, a clean environment, a Mars program, and average lifespans are up 64%.

Oh yeah, and there’s been a 20% reduction in religiosity. YMMV on that, but religious people and trade unionists didn’t support me enough so they had to go.

Attention bananapeels contain nicotine you don't want to get hooked, imagine how much a much a mountain of a guy might smoke in such a scenario, might be enough to have an effect on the global atmosphere.

I was honestly cracking up at this AI-generated Starbucks commercial.

Today I learned that there is One (1) single mention of Bay12 Forums in Encyclopedia Dramatica.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It kinda goes hard at the bay forumites of 2010 below this. I just think this is interesting.

I now also know what Space Station 13 is.

Oh shit i remember SS13.

I always died early.

I imagine the ERP senses was all GirlinHat's senses. She had a pretty good nose for that sort of nonsense.

So some Youtube beatboxer spent 50k on an animation of himself getting sexually assaulted by a Hazbin Hotel character. Dude's getting lit up by the internet.

And he thinks us trans people are degenerates?

I've now heard that story in at least 4 different places. At this point I think it's fair to say some guy spent 50k on a innovative marketing campaign and wildly succeeded.

Archive link to the AMV. Current mud rakers did some investigating and the most likely story so far is:

1. Dude is a fairly successful beatboxing DJ who ran his own fairly successful animated youtube series. Fans were accustomed to wide intervals between new episodes since animations take a long time to make, but there was one particularly large gap that caused his momentum to drop. That 6 month gap was probably working on the hazbin AMV

2. Declining viewcount, declining ad revenue, plus cost of hazbin amv production probably what lead to speculation he bankrupted himself in the process

3. He ended up stuck with a high production fanfic that he couldn't publish on his main channel, and had no idea what to do to try and recoup money with it. This could be an elaborate attempt at generating publicity to revive a dead channel but if so, it's high risk. More likely, the guy just really wanted an animated fanfic of his OC being seduced by a Hazbin OC

4. At some point it got leaked through his discord, spread onto twitter where someone sent it to Vivziepop, creator of Hazbin Hotel whose reaction was just a picture of "[nervous laughing...] what the fuck" and then it almost immediately went viral

*EDIT
Should be worth noting the release date of the actual show is within days, but it seems like whoever leaked the video had been holding onto it for up to 3 years before deciding to leak it before the show premiere. So this would lend credence to the idea it's just the chaotic actions of a troll

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
So he spent at least $47,000 on it in 2021 but then never published it. But it was intended to be published at some point. If true, the total cost could be much higher

Also on the whole "it's just a publicity stunt" theory you wouldn't get away with commercialising this kind of copyright infringement versus Amazon and the guy who did it did ad work for Disney so if he was thinking rationally, he probably would not be thinking "it is a wise idea to generate a publicity stunt with my oc & hazbin hotel." He was probably just thinking "I want to have sex with hazbin hotel"
