The Amazing Digital Circus - Western Isekai that probably will become Hazbin Hotel killer

Well, yeah, but it's been done. What if everything that's happening occurs in a Boltzmann brain? What if the characters appeared ex nihilo due to some fluctuation in their current state, fully formed, never having lived on Earth? What if the show is not set in a computer after all, but the whole place, including the characters, was formed through overwhelmingly unlikely quantum fluctuations? What if that's the case, but the circus, the computer/CGI aesthetics, Earth, and the entire real universe are a shared hallucination, and the characters are in some other environment [0]? What if the computer/CGI/web show aesthetics/trappings are a distraction and it's actually set in a non-normative rationalist web fiction? What if it's in the imagination of a chronically ill child in a hospital? What if it's set in a prediction branch of a badly-programmed ASI system attempting to acausally bargain with non-existent entities[1], inadvertently creating and killing trillions of human-like entities [2]? It's probably not worth speculating about, I don't see much of an indication this is well thought through by the creators of the show.
This is kojima-levels of plot insanity.
I came up with an even more stupid idea. Recursion. The Amazing Digital Circus is set inside a future Ancestor Simulation (see Bostrom, Yudkowsy, etc.), created by a superintelligence, based on the hit 2020s web series The Amazing Digital Circus.
This one is dumb enough that normies will understand it and be blown away by it, the same kind of people who think they are smart for understanding sherlock.
Nights into Dreams as a kid. Zero surprise when I learned her design was inspired by it.
I knew it, thought about classic 90's harley quinn from batman TAS but that one is more realistic and less cartoony, unlike nights.

More of a ripoff when you look at the successor game

This is the brainrot gen alpha watches en masse. This man has some questionable ethics if he's targeting kids with this shit.

When I initially saw The Amazing Digital Circus I had to check that it wasn't just a Balan Wonderworld TV show.

Just wait until someone who is actually smart has a crack at it. Our @Drain Todger used to be a My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (initialisms MLP, FIM), and Gwern worked on both MLP genetics and Harry Potter genetics. You would hope someone with hundreds of IQ-related papers linked from his website would have an IQ higher than mine (105-ish, based on posting quality? Can't even blame ADHD) Even one of our wholesome cows Peter Locke could probably do good work.

Fuck I think my optimism about old-school fandom has just been insta-falsified
Even aside from the content farm sludge, half the fans of this show want to fuck the clown girl and the other half want to fuck the purple rabbit man. This was never going to be a wholesome fandom.

Between this and the toilet meme the "alphas" (who came up with that cringe name?) are already looking like a bunch of barely functional autists.

Anyway, if I was that goose tranny I would take this idiot to court, this series might be "as good as it gets" for him and to let your brand get destroyed by opportunist ytube whores like that guy is going to be the biggest mistake in his life, besides transitioning of course.

The hand-wringing over Skibidi Toilet is pathetic, especially when it's coming from people in their twenties. As if we didn't watch similar crap when we were their age:

Presumably Glitch Productions owns the copyright to TADC, so it's out of their hands.

I remember stupid shit that went viral in my day like AYBABTU, genX sharing that cringy dancing baby in the 90s, and zoomers doing that retarded fortnite dance, but the toilet thing its way too autistic, way over the top. Only a generation of deep fried brains raised by tablets full of non-stop sensory overload given to them by irresponsable idiots from my generation could get so obsessed with a meme about heads in toilets that they start making hour-long lore videos about the war between the toilets and those tv man or whatever.

And I don't subscribe to the "every new generation is worse than the previous one" mainly because I still consider boomers to be worse than all the generations that came after them.

See, I couldn't disagree more. I actually think it's awesome that kids are still watching Gmod SFM stuff, and to me it shows they haven't changed all that much in a decade (i.e the exact opposite of what everyone is claiming). When I saw it I immediately recognized it as something I could've watched in the late 2000s.

I also think there's something nice about something just some random guy made becoming a cultural phenomenon. This isn't Disney or Warner Brothers dictating culture from the top-down, it's something more genuine. For that reason alone I can't fault it.
 
Dude... 90% of the fandom is comprised of literal children.
Depends on what parts of the Internet you're lurking on and what you consider the "fandom", I guess. I doubt the iPad babies watching whatever the autoplay shows them are the ones posting porn on /co/
 
As a massive prude who was tired of the Helluva boss language (because profanity don't =funny), im satisfied with this show growing popular and reminding zoomy zooms that you can make indie media without a sex joke every few seconds.

Making pom incapable of profanity genuinely seemed funny(?) now that its going toe to toe with Helluva who can't keep its mouth shut

(,I'll put smiling friends up there too for coming from indie people /zach/chris hellbenders/who didn't use bottom barrel humor)

The creator is a lolcow
Aside from having his fetishes out there, Goose hasn’t said or done anything cow-worthy, unless you think him being a tranny counts. He really doesn’t give a shit what people say about TADC or do with the characters and just asks that the fandom behave itself (which it already isn’t). Guy doesn’t even care if he gets misgendered.
 
Made me chuckle a few times and is adorable in a way. Nothing to obsess over. Footnote worthy as long as the creator doesn't start injecting tranny shit into it. At the moment not sure who is this even for.
