SSSS & ARTD Board / Re: SSSS video essay
« Last post by wavewright62 on November 08, 2024, 12:53:01 AM »
Disqus has been down for me too.
The other day I found a Google Drive file in my history that someone had compiled & shared once.  It was 400-some-odd pages, and just Minna's comments.  I read through about 7, but those were from 2018.  It was actually kind of nice to remember the way those streams went, with innocuous discussions of food likes and dislikes, pet stories, bits of lore. 
She definitely had a plan back then to portray the story of Emil's family's catastrophe, and said she wasn't coming up to that anytime soon, so we'd just have to be patient.  *sigh*
Sol, I don't rember where I got permission for that, but I think it was a pinned post in the Discord server?

if you have any comments or VODs with her comments saved

Uhhh ... I've never been following her to any of her social media accounts, and didn't save any of the streaming videos she made (never watched most of them in the first place) ... she had a YouTube account, so chances are that you can still find the videos there. What I did do is the following: Back in the day, it was possible to clickclickclickclick through Disqus until you had a huge web page with all the comments ever made from a specific account. (Nowadays my browser seems to refuse displaying any Disqus content at all ... and note that that doesn't get you whatever comments she was replying to.) I've occasionally done that and saved the page as plaintext-only, so as to have a corpus in which to search keywords and learn the comic's pages where I'd need to go to find that comment again. The latest version I have on disk seems to be from 01-Jan-2021 ...

As far as her conversion is concerned, the main source of in-depth information would be her new website (hummingfluff.com), as she IIUC cut herself from social media at the same time (and understandably wasn't very forthcoming with details on the old sites after the first feedback she got there).

I want to try to make an in-depth analysis video essay about the fate of SSSS covering Minna's conversion and all other controversies. I am looking for proper sources, so if you have any comments or VODs with her comments saved I'd really appreciate if you could share that with me. Thanks in advance!

That page also raises the question whether there's still a general Gkika somewhere in that Klaustrophilic mess ...

I have more stories stored too, have been writing (well, wrangling) a couple of reports so that I have zero strength to type for fun, but the report willingly be finished soon!

It’s very relaxing to write creatively and balances the work, but recently I’ve been physically unable to do any extra on the computer. But we’ll get to it so watch this space! And thank you so much Mirasol for setting this up! Just thinking the stories is invigorating!

Mira, I’m glad you liked that edition of NFTSW! Always happy to disrupt your commute spark a new opportunity to break from the routine!
And your drawings are fantastic! I checked the link and that cave looks beautiful, and, as demck pointed, very, very uncomfortable!

I also love the scene with Sigrun and the team on that touristic spot :) Did they have time to reinvent the selfie after the rash?

Also love the eldritch forest! Emil has some experience on what can happen when you look up… and I think you did the “trees” with the exact level of ambiguity… Well done!

Thanks for the cake, JoB! I actually love the concept of the birthday cupcake. So simple, and yet it delivers the message! :)  <3

As for the stargate, I’m sure no one will try to make it work, so everyone will be safe, right? Right?

Back to Mira’s drawings, we get the nether portal… It’s pretty! And I like the boxy clouds too!
Since I never played Minecraft, a quick check on it was mandatory (to me), and I found…
https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Nether_portal
Which has a lot of things whose meaning I have no idea, and this little piece: “There is an infinitesimal chance of failure for the corresponding portal to generate in the Nether, leaving the player trapped until death or until another portal can be constructed, either in the Nether or by another player in the Overworld. “ Sounds like a lot of fun…  ;)

The Astral Plains are lovely! So many different things! The background (upper and lower part), the monster, the magical space cat that rides a broom :D
And thanks for providing the link! I really enjoyed it!

Now, I still have a few things set for this yoinktober… I’m sure my friends won’t complain if I keep posting for some days… next one will be tomorrow!

BTW, Jitter, yes, on the original of that last picture we have Daniel besides Samantha. I turned Daniel into Prof. Mickelson by changing Daniel’s blue uniform to brown, and then drawing the beard and the hat, and removing his glasses. To turn Samantha into Tuuri I made her less tall and changed the haircut. I'm glad you liked it! Maybe we get a bit more of Stargate soon... :)

"Destroyer?"
"No, just knocked her unconscious!"

31: Astral Plains (decided to only go with the first half of the prompt)

Happy Halloween!
And just like that, it´s the last entry again, huh? O_o What will I do with all that free time now? (Kidding, I actually have a LOT to do for college starting soon. So I´m glad the challenge starts and ends before that really goes into full swing... ^^')

Did any of you see/play that little Halloween-game Google had for the 31.? You are a wizard cat and fight ghosts in space. It´s very cute. The protagonist is such a creature. It inspired me and it matched the prompt, so I drew the second level.
Lower half is drawn with markers, upper half with watercolors.

And maybe only the most recent one will survive being taken out of the time stop?

Maybe a countdown timer? But I don't know whether any of them would say + anything. There might just be hordes of them that say 0.
