Hololive is a group of female virtual youtubers, that being youtubers that stream with what are basically anime avatars. In the case of hololive they work for a company, and do so under the hololive brand. Some virtual youtubers started as a kind of tech demo for the facial tracking systems of the companies behind them. However it's now mostly just another type of youtuber not significantly different from others. I've watched some stuff, but I could probably tell you more, if I cared to know it. I mean I think the idea of people doing tech demos becoming semi-professional entertainers is kind of an interesting thing, but not so interesting to have bothered to read the Wikipedia article about it. So like, go do that if you're interested.

Why are zoomers so afraid of what other people think about them? Unless you hate yourself there is no reason to hide yourself. Dude at my job reads manga on the office pc and nobody would dare make fun of him, because he's confident. That he looks like a male model might also help.

Literally stop caring. If people would rather ostracize you because of a niche interest that they can't invest 2 minutes in, then they're not worth your time. People like that will, by simple association, try to fix you even though you aren't broken. Ask yourself, why do you like the hobby? Is it any despicable reason? Or is it just natural for someone with your experiences to like it? How many other people like it? What does it say about them? Is that even relevant as long as they and you are having fun?

Last bit of advice: people can only make you feel like a weirdo if you let them. Turn it around on them instead. Ask them why they dont know about the newest entertainment sensation from Japan. Refuse to elaborate (if they ask loaded questions). Don't stutter. You know what you and your oshi are worth.

This is a really good way to handle the situation, thank you for the advice anon. In general, making the other person feel awkward (not in a "wtf is this autist screeching about, I should have never said anything" way) is a great way to dismiss your awkwardness surrounding a hobby you're insecure about.

So a while ago I went to the doctors and after 8 weeks of counselling and lots of blood tests they decided the never ending sadness in me was due to a mega vitamin D deficiency. I also got a bonus calcium and iron shortage too which was a real treat. Despite being a big girl who can swallow even the most bitter pills, they gave me effervescent vitamin D and calcium combined which was rancid. Now I HATE fizzy drinks and all squash except Ribena so I was not impressed at all. Over the next two months I got most of my ‘special drinks’ down me and unsurprisingly felt a lot better.

The iron supplements they prescribed at the same time were out of stock at most pharmacy’s so I could only get them today and it reminded me I had some effervescent tablets left. I decided to see what would happen if I ate one and after licking it and confirming it tasted like sweeties I swallowed it whole. THIS IS WHERE THE FUCKERY STARTED.

It got stuck as soon as I swallowed it and was right at the top of my throat fizzing menacingly. I wasn’t sure if I could breathe to start with and was panicking that I was going to be the recipient of a well deserved Darwin Award. (I feel like I should point out, without sounding like a dick, that I’m usually at least a bit intelligent but all logic failed me today) So this is getting painful, it’s a huge tablet that takes several minutes to dissolve in water usually and my throat is feeling quite sore already. I’ve got my partner stood next to me and I’m fully expecting him to have to give me the Heimlich maneuver. I know I have at least another five minutes of pain plus gas is starting to build up and I’m getting lemony, stinging burps too.

For the first time in my life I stick my fingers down my throat and make myself sick. It takes three lots of watery sick before the chunks of sizzling hell finally come out and I feel like I can breathe properly again.

In my former friend group one guy linked some VTuber stuff and we talked about it in discord group chat. Others didn't really care but occasionally joined in the convo by asking questions.

Then there was one guy (that is probably a tranny with extreme mental illness)) that got extremely mad about that stuff when ever it brought up and made everyone else hate it and made everyone just be mean to me when ever I talked about it again.

Dunno, mental illness, being a loser and hating literally everything? Extreme depression, poverty etc.

Also he grew to dislike me after I expressed my disapproval if he were a tranny. He was a bi crossdresser and when he came out I told him that its okay but I won't support if he'd become a tranny. Too fucking much. He already started showing pictures of him crossdressing as if it was normal to show that shit.

At first he was okay with it. Overtime though he started crossdress when hanging out with us, even going as far as having girls clothes under a jacket in public and I warned that this seems like a slippery slope to taking hormones and repeated my words that what I would do in that situation. He told me to fuck off, had a fight about it and never recovered the friendship even though I did try. Our friendship become extremely bipolar after that, sometimes he hated me and sometimes he didn't.

Turns out that if a guy calls you a tranny for years, he is probably projecting hard. That is what happened with him.
