Jim Sterling / James "Stephanie" Sterling / James Stanton/Sexton & in memoriam TotalBiscuit (John Bain) - One Gaming Lolcow Thread

It'd be like living in the late '90s and believing the Beanie Baby craze is the end of civilization as we know it, rather than just a dumb speculative bubble that you can ignore if you think it's a bad idea. Hell, at least crypto has theoretical justification for its valuation.

Is there a psychopathology that describes someone who considers every trivial thing he doesn't like as an imminent worldwide calamity? Because whatever that's called, Jim has it in spades.


What about the current implementations is so bad? I don't know enough about the various currencies to understand what they're all doing wrong.
Well, just for starters, the fact that it requires an arms race of computing power thanks to several side effects of how most of these work to incentivize participation in keeping the network up and uncompromised. There's also the idea of how incredibly easy it is to lose or have currency stolen with no recourse if you're entirely in the system. "Just don't fall for a scam" isn't good enough. Protection of some kind needs to be built in on some level and to my knowledge nobody's done that. A lot of the people who make fun of it all have those high on the list.
 
So is Jim still re-packaging /v/'s hot takes after they've cooled down or has he abandoned that for BreadTube? I never understood how Yahtzee could play Atlas to a website full of shitty media reviewers like MovieBob and Jim Sterling. Was the Escapist a ranch for lolcows? Is the Irish guy who made videogame music a troon now? I know the White Korra comic writers are loonies.

I never understood how Jim had an audience. MovieBob was a very poor man's Cinemasscre with his shit takes, but Jim is just a boring anglo. His shtick was never fucking funny and he just prattled on in front of a green screen while wearing a Kane cosplay. Did people think that he was Yahtzee doing a bit?

He went back to talking about video games for a few videos then went back to politics. He honestly doesn't seem to know what he wants, he's just winging it while occasionally making salty comments in his videos when people tell him to stop giving his basic bitch political takes no one cares about.

He always just was reiterating what everyone in the room had already said 10 minutes ago and agreed upon, but that room was /v/. I remember /v/ threads where one person would sing Jim's praises and I'm still 99% sure that was Jim trying to get viewers. I think now he's trying to use twitter to get his takes and twitter is just deranged. Did Jim admit to being molested, yet? I had him pegged for a fag the minute I heard his accent and cadence.

Well, one thing about Jim is he got into the game pretty early. His first Jimquisition was in 2010, I forget when I started watching him but he was different back then. He did not have the anger he has now and he while he always had an immature sense of humor it did not get in the way of the video.

This is apparently his first Jimquisition

I started watching him when he was on the Escapist. Notice the lack of anger and he stayed on point. The production value is lower here, and yet at the same time it is much better than the nu-Jimquisition.
 
They have to say NFTs/cryptocurrencies are destroying the planet. Because otherwise you can say stuff like "if you don't like NFTs, then just don't participate in them? Why do you care what other people do if it doesn't hurt you?"

Everyone agrees that violence is bad and should be banned, barring self-defense (though some are rethinking this post-Rittenhouse), so their goal is to stretch everything into literal violence. NFTs require energy, all forms of energy usage destroy the planet (since there's no form of energy production that exists, that they support, that creates enough cost-free energy to supply the world), destroying the planet is violence against everyone on it. Therefore, participating in NFTs is violence and needs to be banned.

Same reason anything they don't like (including supporting trans rights in an insufficient manner) can be "transphobic" and transphobia is literal violence genociding troons. Or how the rule of law is "white supremacy" upheld by violence. Or capitalism is. Or whatever else they want and want NOW. It's all the same shit to this cult. It's like they read (not really, reading is fascist) Repressive Tolerance once and have formed an entire ideology based on implementing it. (Marcuse was serious, it's not Swiftian. Also, I'm not saying Marcuse invented this or is to blame, just that he wrote the most direct case for the principle.)
Some NFT are clearly pyramid schemes. I saw an ad for one and it was going on about how much money you can make selling characters and in the end "To start playing you have to purchase characters that cost at least 1000 USD, but after that you can resell them to the new players!"
 
Oh he doesn't look like a wahman, huh? What do you say to this?

Taking poison is one way to slim down, I suppose

Jimbo's going to UK to do more wrestling and to see his ...husband?


Polycule with his podcast cohosts confirmed:


Turns out his "husband" is Phoenix, that blue haired thing he first showed back in September who's Podquisition's Twitch mod

Now excuse me I'll go vomit
 
Am I the only person who's started reflexively turning away from his screen in revulsion every time I see pictures of Jim?
I wish. Whenever I see him I can't tear my eyes away from the cosmic horror; it's like staring into infinity.
In before feds jail him for CP and/or other disgusting shit. I'm going to guess a year or 2 from now.
I doubt it, but only because I suspect Jim is another Kevin Gibes type who talks a big degenerate game but actually has zero sex drive irl.

Since he has a major case of arrested development like all troons, I'm operating on the same principle we all did in high school: The more a guy talks about all the wild kinky sex he's having, the odds of him being a kissless turbovirgin approaches 1.

You forgot the corollary to that principle, though: as the odds of him being a kissless turbovirgin approach 1, the odds of him having extremely degenerate and/or illegal porn on his hard drive also approach 1.

So the only question here is what illegal thing Jim is into. I'm not actually too sure about pedophilia, since I think he's made statements about being more into MILFs than skinny characters over the years. But his association with open furries and his fetishistic interest in sex toys do point towards some dog dick in his future.
