I've been following him since the LiveJournal days. Back when he made things like Emo Assault Squadron (available on YouTube). He still does hearse work but hasn't put out anything big in some time.
Someone talking about Livejournal makes me tear up.
It's been a while
Was rereading mine recently (mirrored to Dreamwidth as LJ is Not Good anymore), it was rough.
There are a few things I wrote there that I want to archive but no idea when they were. I'm thinking I build a crawler to scrape the whole thing and then load it into a LLM to help me find the bits I'm looking for. Then I can delete the whole thing and stop letting Russia have my stuff
It's hard to get your entries off LJ, all I could do is mirror.
Can't use wget?
Idk it was some years ago I did it.
I also knew this dude back then. His entry to a Welch's jelly commercial contest (which involved a postapocalyptic car chase with a cannibal gang) was one of my favorite things on all of YouTube.
Edit: found the postapocalyptic jelly commercial and a bonus Nine Inch Nails parody about playing BINGO.
I THOUGHT he looked familiar...
