    Hey everyone! I'm going to be trying a few different things with this channel to see if it helps us in the algorithm. One of these things is to release certain series in their entirety instead of episodically. This means that content will be less posted frequently, but there will be the same amount of it either way. As segments from the series are edited, I'll be pulling short clips from them to use as Quik Bitz videos like the "*effort noises*" one posted recently. This should be a good way to ensure that content is still posted with some frequency while you're waiting to see each entire series. Let me know if you like this idea in the comments, and be sure to like/subscribe/etc. Thank you!

      Posting the full videos and then small bits of the best clips (as you seem to have been doing) looks like a good way to go. Big fan of the new thumbnails.
      I always thought YMS Gaming would've been better for a channel name though.

    So their power is being able to recall specific memories. But their memories are conflicting, and some are just completely wrong. So their power is just regular ass memory. Is that the twist? There’s nothing special about them in any way.

    I didn’t think it needed to be explained to this game that the “misremembered” trope only works when the real event was MORE traumatic. Like why didn’t they make the real memory that the mother tried to shoot her kids, but the two remembered her getting murdered by someone else and they’re trying to solve it from the beginning. At least that’s literally anything, and makes a slight amount of sense.

    DontNod should really stop trying to make stories centered around powers, because they don't really do a good job of it.
    - LiS1: Max has time powers that conveniently don't work when they'd be the most useful, and gains random new additions to her power, like not moving in time despite doing so the first time or travelling through pictures
    - LiS2: Add in telekinetic abilities that don't do anything to enhance the core gameplay like Max's time powers do, and give it to a character you're not controlling and thus don't have direct access to
    - Tell Me Why: Memory powers, except they can have conflicting memories and remember things so wrong it's almost hilarious. Also they can talk to each other in their mind?

    I just realized, since the twins can conjure up different memories, their power isn't really remembering things. It's more the power of conjuring up their imagination, like their imagination of what happened previously. So Tyler could be like "Yo Alyson check it out, I'm a wolf boy and you're a fox girl isn't it neat?" and conjure up a "memory" their fursonas and Alyson would be forced to see everything. How neat.

The book was called something like "Accepting Your Transgender Child" and after finding it they 100% said "She's still finding new ways to piss us off" like what? In what world should they be mad at that? She literally wanted to be accepting

      yes, you can destroy your body before puberty. plenty of stories of people doing that. it's pretty fucked up since there's a high percentage of people who really do later regret transitioning and for some, it really is "just a phase" but i'm sure doing it before their body started naturally changing in the other direction can only make things easier from a process standpoint. of course, at that point it's up to the parents to allow it and have anything done. for example, the mom who wanted to transition her 6 year old. the story where the dad had no say whatsoever and you can easily argue the kid didn't really make the decision for himself because he was fucking 6 and never chose to act like or be called a girl when with his father.

If you change your mind you just stop talking it and your body just continues doing it's thing, no negative affects. Most trans people don't even get bottom surgery cause it's not good enough yet and it's too expensive. You'll usually see trans people get top surgery, which is something that can be reversed too, so what's your point...
