she's actually donated quite a bit to glaad and the tennessee equality project and campaigned against marsha blackburn, specifically highlighting her anti lgbtq record.

So are they secretly inventing a gay-ray?

Seems like something magats could believe.

Sees video length, closes tab.

Why do video essays need to be so long these days :(

Because I need something to listen to while working

Because people partaking in the creation of this kind of videos, which is to say so called "video essays" do not posess the ability to syntethize their thoughts enough and need artificial padding to lenghten the video and thus give an allure of an thought-provoking essay.

Also "video game essays" are overrated and will over interpret a single mechanic over an hour.

Josh Strife Hayes manages to analyze several mechanics of a game, its context and 100% it in less than an hour.

Or maybe, god forbid, there's actually a lot to say on the subject

But go off, this clearly touches a nerve for you

There's a lot to say, but most of them tend to pad a little on top of that. Not padding as in completely useless sentences (usually), rather, overly long sentences phrased to sound more profound.

Naw, pretty sure video games are a very simple topic which can be discussed in a TikTok
