[sheila--e]

it was a small passing comment in the story but when its mentioned Sheila saw her dog get beaten to death when she was a kid and it made her feel like humankind was just like that (+ her sister's murder afterwards cementing that worldview)... augh.

Hey, I remember a while back you posted about how JJs entire business strategy with loona was sabotaging them, and I do remember hearing somewhere that he sabotaged them on purpose... Do you remember where he said that? It just seems especially relevant what with these teasers coming out

JJ has never on paper talked about wanting to specifically keep LOONA underground - it was a common belief that orbits held that turned into "it came out of jaden's mouth directly" and people just assumed he said it somewhere amidst the hundreds of blogposts hes made. So that was espoused as fact, and then the JJ dicksuckers said it was a complete lie made up by orbits to make him look bad because there was no direct quote. But thats a whole other thing. Originally, the idea was that JJ intentionally restricted their promotion because the promotions were so small, and there was one blog post that *alluded* to him liking the notion of a mystery group;

"I was going to make a mystery filled girl group. In the age of information excess. In age of knowing too much too easily and information overflowing, I realised I wanted to make the greatest group that couldn't be known." <- this was back in 2012, arguably about lovelyz but vague enough to be about his general attitude to girl groups. To be honest it doesn't fit in well with the work he did with Lovelyz but does fit way more with LOONA & his ambitions of making unknowable lore, so shrug.

If you want to be famous on the internet, you need to develop "mystery" for yourself.

That doesn't mean to make shit up, that means, tell a story about yourself that leaves people wanting to hear more about yourself, not just the story, but you.

When someone says or does, or has a reaction towards something in a distinct way, people want more of it, and that is mystery. Wanting something new that you don't know what even is.

Honestly think it's why British people took off seemingly the most easily in early youtube.

It's not just about "wanting more" or just making good content. You gotta have something that makes people wonder what will happen.

Bringus Studios just does a buncha shit and I'm all for it everytime, what do you got today? A prisoner laptop that got recalled? Gonna put Steam on it? hell yeah let's go.

Lockpick Lawyer, he builds up the product and takes it down in seconds and tells you how afterwards. Literally perfect mystery.

Comic dubs come with the mystery of the voice, the editing, and if they spent 5 minutes or 5 days on it.

Let's Plays are little portals into people's lives. It's why most of them suck.

It's why Streaming took off too. Instant mystery.

It's all mysteries. It's not about stories. It's not about faking anything. It's about making people curious. That's it. Make them think about you every other while and they'll come back when you're way better than they last saw you, and they'll start tuning in more.

man the fnaf movie was insane like that shit has me standing in the shower like this

[hauntedtotem]

sometimes I wish it was 2021 again so I can see J's reaction to me being in (literally any fandom she wasn't in) and (liking literally any character that didn't look like her)

You know what, joining that Discord show club was a great idea, like half of my favourite PKC folks are there. And is there anything more wholesome than someone going '1!! hey, I remember that dog!! she's adorable, I'm glad she's doing well!' about a little pixel friend they made for you years ago?

[elegyofthemoon]

ah the intimacy of knowing each other's stories and trusting each other deeply that you know what would make the other happy

yes I've been lying in bed for three hours, listening to the same song on repeat, and yes I have written *checks* 14,000 words of the most stupid, embarrassing shit ever over the last two days, and yes I can actively feel my brain melting in my head, but I'm definitely totally fine.
