🧬New video!🧬

Pokémon X and Y were for the most part more of the same, but still had some strange ambitions under the surface. What happens to these odd games when you try to take them seriously? And what is Pokémon, as a whole, capable of? Link ⬇️

1. fuck

2. you have to live. organize locally. i've finally been doing some of that this year and it's so doable.

3. done with this platform for good. probably irredeemable already, certainly moreso coming up.

it was inevitably naive of me to believe my cohort would be the ones to enact the necessary change. wow, how common we turned out to be. the necessary change is still possible, but it will take more.

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

in 2016, at age 18, i genuinely believed that things would be okay because my generation had it straight and it was only a matter a time til we had control. that is now repudiated. time will not be enough. it will demand work and fury.

no matter what happens, may this election be the death nail in the self-congratulatory “gen z will change the world” shit. gen z white men vote like every other generation of white men, and in some cases are further to the right

Democrats invited this man to Washington, defended him as he committed war crimes, and voted to send him even more weapons despite the electoral risks — and this is his response

You're not gonna die. Because tomorrow you will be alive. And you will make a pledge to get stronger every day. And you will keep that pledge. You will bleed through honor and discipline. And you will become so strong that they may never threaten you. You are going to do this.

that's me

Our newest video is out now. It's about antinatalism, reproductive justice, and the nature of suffering. I think it's the best thing we've ever made.

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

@jeremystewart9 thank you! but I actually have a new video coming out in about a week! in the conclusion i was talking about how i probably wont make any *pokemon* videos for a while, but I have plenty of other new vids to make dont worry :)

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

i think i just wrote a video thats actually less than 40 minutes long. everyone please clap i needed this.

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

@LiamTriforce Whoa! that could be incredibly useful for me, thank you so much for sharing

[roseeee ❤️‍🔥 @roramdin]

i love art so much. i love music and movies and photos and games and sculptures and paintings and it all gives meaning to life. thank you.

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

creating a linkedin feels like admitting i'll one day die

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

@wizawhat ah, interesting. did you also change the title?

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

Heads up for non-huge youtubers! Yunning youtube's new built-in A/B testing on videos that dont get a ton of viewers will have a ton of noise and may yield a wholly inaccurate result. The three thumbnails below are completely identical

[Skyehoppers @skyehoppers]

@Lostfutures1 It still might be! With smaller sample size you might just need to run the test a few times to trust the result. Which does suck, but it's probably better than the previous way of desperately trying to parse graphs that dont actually give you the most useful data
