    I will remember you for as long as I live and breath and scream into the void Jim. You keep releasing episodes that make me think "This is the culmination of everything that the Jimquisition has been talking about for years. The Jimquisition is comeplete". Then you released this one and I thought "HE DID IT AGAIN, HE FUCKING DID IT AGAIN!!!" Thank God for Jim Sterling. You are a fucking hero in my eyes, breaking the mold like a hammer to a landmine, showing me that everything is connected in a big web of bullshit, and demolishing the excuses behind every single sin.

    @Jim Sterling Now that I see you in that gas mask, I want to send a PSA. Those old Soviet gas masks (GP-5) are known to contain asbestos in their filters if they were made before or during the 80s. The amount is small and unlikely to harm you unless the filter irself is damaged, but still you may want to change it for a more modern 40mm filter if you haven't already, especially if you plan on using it often.
    As they are so cheap, it's common to see them at cons as part of cosplays. I always warn anyone I see wearing one, just in case.

What got me is that she'd been targeted on a channel of hers she uses purely to watch arctic monkey music videos and interviews and videos relating to vegan matters.

    I rewatched V for Vendetta the other day and it was amazing to see the dystopic fiction that, it turns out, didn't nearly go far enough. The big bombshell conspiracy revelation in that movie is that a government allowed a virus to go out of control and which caused the deaths of (only) 80,000 people. But by far the most sadly unrealistic part of that movie was the end where the vast majority of the oppressed civilian population stands together in defiance of their fascist regime. Seeing the events of my country unfold over the last weeks and months, a far more realistic scenario would have been if roughly half of that population stood against the other half, waving John Hurt flags and fully supporting the continuation of the fundamental theocracy that sees them as no more than expendable livestock.

    Hey Jim I thought I'd let you know that pogchamp actually does refer to pogs. Originally the reason he was called pogchamp was due to a video where him and the guy he made videos with were playing a game of pogs. I don't know the exact rules of the game but supposedly he ended up winning the game and thus that became his name.
    So when he made that Memeface it became the pogchamp memeface. So that name actually has nothing to do with poggers the meme.
    So in the end when you hear that name and think of pogs you are actually right according to the original history behind the name.
