More White VAs Need POC Side And Background Characters. I Understand Why They Don't Want To Make POC

At least my blades won't say mean things to me or hurt my feelings.

I still really don't get the refusal to have characters of color in ones lineup. It will never not look weird to me. Especially given that there ARE VAs with multi-racial casts (Mr. Laveau is a great example).

I feel like not wanting to be "offensive" is more of an excuse than anything else. Especially since the majority of the audios I've listened to, both narrative and one off, very rarely actually contain content that could be considered highly insensitive if the race of the character changed. Especially in fantasy worlds where the idea of race takes on new contexts.

It always reads to me like a creator (audio rp or otherwise) either is incapable of seeing POC as actual people, or has a weird inability to separate POC from our struggles. And while it IS important that we don't play into the idea of "not seeing color", and disregarding what is often very difficult and painful histories for many of us...

... Y'all do know we like, like, people shit, right? We have normal jobs, we eat food, probably go to the movies and on dates. Can and do exist in fantasy worlds. Like, I'm not saying don't do some research, like don't make a black character a monkey or a Jewish character a rat or some bs, lmao. But like, what exactly is stopping any of you, on some real shit 🤨.

Idk, it's just a weird look to me. Also, obviously, this is about creators who have characters depicted in some form of art.

How life feels when you learn your faves dislike Donald Trump

I don't want to go back on TikTok on account of their ridiculous dick-riding of Donald Trump when the stupid bastard isn't even president yet.

Like wtf is this shit lmao they are doing tricks on it and thanking him for all his hard work when his inauguration hasn't even happened like lmfao please shut the fuck up.

I know this isn't exactly abaut the VAs or asmr rp in general but seeing people use Gacha Life 2 to make their listener ocs/designs makes me feel so happy

Like I can't draw for shit so I use gacha for a lot of my designs but I always felt embarrassed abaut using it like it was childish or smth lol, but seeing so many people do it too and post their designs on Tumblr and seeing VAs react to them feels so validating you guys have no idea

So yeah keep up with the good work guys, your listener ocs are awesome and your designs are even more amazing!

When I tell you that I screamed during the ending of the latest video and was like "I'm going to jump off a bridge if this is what I think it is." I'm going to be on the edge of my seat till the next one comes out istg

Fantastic work to Scythe and all of the VAs who worked hard on the latest video! You guys never fail to amaze me any time there's a post in the villain series. Can't wait for all the new adventures you guys generously gift us this year!
