But...she's pretty good at pronouncing my name, though...
The timestamp to her talking about this on archivebro's VOD archive is here, at approximately 0:10:58 to 0:12:02.
Now that I've had some more time to think, I'd like to elaborate on my feelings here just a little more. The kind of mindset she seems to be falling into, that of feeling bad for laughing at certain things not deemed 'acceptable' and wanting to 'be better' or 'self-reflect', is a very slippery slope that eventually leads to accidentally becoming condescending / virtue-signaling to her audience. And considering the heavy association/audience overlap and inspiration she's funneled up to now from people specifically like Mister Metokur, whos' entire motto and modus operandi was to laugh at everything and everyone, no exceptions, that kind of thing is guaranteed to not go over well. Thankfully, as documented here, within 20 minutes of the stream kicking off she completely disregarded what she was saying and still had a great time doing pseudo lolcow deepdives on entertaining schizos, so it ended up essentially being moot lipservice and nothing came from it, but still - I hope and have faith that it wasn't some kind of dark omen of things to come. Being able and willing to laugh at everything on the Internet is a very important trait to have, and if she were to actually begin noticeably backtracking on an essential aspect of character like that in her content, especially at this point, it would be a recipe for people to begin perceiving betrayal and disappointment. Yes, this is big overthinking, but I feel it's important to be said anyways.Pippa said:
If Pippa ever sees this, I'd like to say to her that having an 'edgy' sense of humor is not a bad thing whatsoever, nor is having zero filter when it comes to what you find funny. Sense of humor has literally zero indication on whether or not you are a 'good person' or your 'maturity level', regardless of what Twitter or Reddit may try and guilt you into believing, & laughing at children and the mentally ill is perfectly fine - it's what Jim did constantly in his prime, with things like his Tumblrisms series being a prime example of this. Trying to alter this specific aspect of yourself in an attempt to fit an arbitrary definition of what defines a 'good person' is an unhealthy mindset to have. You may have flaws, and by all means you should continue attempting to self-improve, but finding 'taboo' things like mentally ill disabled retards funny is not one of them, nor should you try and force change this specific part of yourself if you truly do still find things funny deep down. Don't self-guilt over humor, and don't feel bad for laughing at things.
She's going Habermann on us.
I will not lie, that was unironically one of the first things that popped into my mind when I heard her say that - a lesser form of trolls' remorse. But I'm hesitating to really jump on that train unless she actually, God-forbid, starts going all in on disavowing jokes.
Pippa isn't Mister Metokur. She doesn't have to be him or be his successor or whatever, and I think she would reject that title even if all of his fans declared her to be so.
I think Pippa self-deprecates a lot, leading to her seeing herself in a bad light. Calling herself a bad person and literally exploding in tears and calling herself a fuckup that one time. I dont see it as betrayal to me, in the end if pippa just stops being interesting to her im dropping no hard feelings. What i see is that effort to try and correct herself to be "better" in detriment to herself and her health mental and physical. It doesnt take a genius to figure out shes clinically depressed.
I refuse to believe she'd go Habermann, I think she's just being paranoid and neurotic, but she'll forget about it eventually like she did five minutes into last night's stream.
