on indefinite hiatus

i am going on indefinite hiatus. i have not been entirely honest about why i go on breaks from this blog

The reasons I didn't root for Gem that had nothing to do with misogyny :

Anytime Scott Smajor mentions flower husbands I just get annoyed now. Because he literally said in Empires season 1 that fh is dead and in the Imp and Skizz podcast he said he wanted to kill the fh shippers. But then he goes on to mention fh everytime he's with Jimmy???? Like it's not even flirting with your friend. It's him specifically mentioning fh, calling Jimmy his husband, giving him a poppy and the pufferish of peace.

I like that jimmy's evolving. I watch his roblox content (no I'm not a child just childish), and I love his dynamic with Katherine. I would like like more of that in the life series tbh, would be fun.

If the CCs don’t find a way to really mix up the life series in a way that matters (e.g. a rotating cast a la MCC), then I think it just needs to end already. It’s been almost the exact same set of people every time for over four years now, and it’s going to get stale sooner or later because the short, action-oriented format doesn’t lend itself too well to a mostly static cast (there’s a reason stuff like MCC frequently switches it up). I’m sure it already has gotten stale for some fans.

The longer the life series gets, the more I worry about continuity lockout. This isn’t as much of an issue for less lore-heavy smps, but previous events and alliances DO matter in later seasons (e.g. the Pearl-Scott-Cleo dynamic), and the further we go, the harder it’s going to be for new fans to get into the series. The life series is LONG, so even if you pick just one person’s pov to watch, it’ll take you hours to get through the whole thing. That’s not even mentioning how you practically have to watch multiple povs of every season to get a fuller picture of what’s going on around the server, or even what’s going on with one person (I’m mainly thinking of Gem here, but this goes for EVERYBODY to some extent)

I wonder if they would have been able to pull off going backwards in the seasons. Like starting with the most recent update and slowly going back to the previous versions and being more limited. I feel like that would have been a bit more interesting with trying to work with that. Honestly I got bored at about episode 5 :/

ngl I don't like any of the mlw ships. (besides Jizzie)

People complaining about Scott being villainized in rancher duo fics will always be hilarious to me.

Honestly, none of the Lifers are victims 100% or villains 100%. But they all have something that makes them scary.

i watch bigb as my main pov but likeeee what is that clicking sound. its not a problem in his roblox or non-life series videos. fr im trying too watch his pov and brooooo move your mic up or a get a new mouse why is it so loud??? does it just hate the life series??? the mouse is so loud MY GOD

What on earth am I meant to do with my Fridays now that I don’t have 10 different hour long videos to watch

not liking or not caring about the watcher lore isnt as uncommon as you might think it is (<- someone who really enjoys watcher lore and eyes & ears)

this isnt meant to be hate towards any of the ccs or their playstyles but .. watching cleos limited life and seeing them, scar, scott and martyn chase joel down to kill him when he hasnt really... done anything? just feels unfair. yes, things like skynet is also unfair, but a 4v1 like that is just disappointing

everyone that was rooting for a jimmy win instead of a gem win is really fucking misogynistic ngl

Reading the confessions in this blog is a wild ride to me, because the hate towards specific ccs makes no sense to me, you need to remind yourself that everyone in this series are friends, they've all had 7 seasons together, theyre all okay and chill with each other, so why cant the fans be like that too?? I didn't like Scott very much, but I never said anything bad about him, I didnt hate on his fans nor did I hate that he won Last Life, and yknow what my dislike towards Scott was stupid looking back on it. And I think more people need to realise they dont know these people, you're just watching them through a screen. Don't you watch the Life series to watch people kill each other? Aren't you excited about the various teamups? Aren't you just grateful there's another season of the Life Series at all?? All the winners deserve their wins, regardless of who it is or how they got it.
