    Just gonna say it: Her videos aren't good. They have been getting steadily worse since she transitioned. Now they're just hours of (admittedly gorgeous) whining, usually about being cancelled on Twitter.

    I don't think I can stomach a single drop more from this particular slop trough.

        That's true, of course, and I didn't mean to imply that one was responsible for the other. I mean, I just started transitioning last week, and I only get more communist with every dose.

        I suppose I just consider it a useful, visible demarcation. I apologize if it came across as insensitive.

        It is interesting to think about how she's sort of changed the landscape as far as political content on YouTube goes. Her impact is undeniable - I doubt I'd be here if I hadn't consumed her early work, and I'm certainly not alone in that - but I do think she's well past her prime, unfortunately.

        I vaguely recall someone close to her, perhaps Theryn, commenting on her subreddit and mentioning she had grown disenchanted with politics, and that she was really into I wanna say makeup or fashion YT?

        This was a while back, so maybe that was just a passing flight of fancy. Still, I can't help but want her to move on to greener pastures.

        ...Even if only to put an end to her godawful takes and disperse her wretched fans.

          I'm pretty sure she said outright in one of her videos (from at least a year ago) that she'd rather be a makeup YouTuber (Gigi Gorgeous I think) but her audience doesn't want that so she doesn't. I don't remember the specifics it was a while ago

            Oh damn, I didn't realize she was that public about it. As is probably obvious, I haven't really sat through a full video of hers in a decent while. At any rate, I'm not shocked to hear it at all. Her interest and skill are apparent.

              I really wish she'd give up on the politics and just do lavish one women productions of Restoration-era theatre or something. I'd be happier. She'd be happier. Her fans would still watch.
