Jenna Marbles was one of the original big channel Youtubers. I remember being in middle school and quoting her constantly, and never having to explain the reference. Everyone knew who Jenna was.
Then, time passed as it does. And like most youtubers, her following shrunk overtime. People outgrew her or lost interest. I myself stopped watching her for years, except for the occasion “I wonder what Jenna’s doing” search.
But what did she decide to do? Was she gonna pander to her audience, or do challenge videos to keep her views up?
No.
She decided to do whatever she freaking wanted.
She literally follows whatever crazy, impulsive thoughts she has and doesn’t really care what we think.
One week she thought, “I wonder how many balloons it would take to float Marbles up in the air?” And she found out.
“I should cover my entire face with rhinestones” Yes please.
“I want to blend into my green screen” YES. ABSOLUTELY.
She does what she wants, and its entertaining as hell. I love being subscribed to Jenna cuz I literally have no idea what’s coming this Wednesday/Thursday, but I know she’s gonna be having a great time doing it.
Jenna Marbles is an icon. She’s what I aspire to be. We should all learn from her to follow our dreams, no matter how unusual they may seem.
Bonus: Here’s some screenshots from her as a green screen
I’m so glad someone finally said something about this. Jenna marbles is one of my favorite people to ever exist and I love her endlessly (and Julien and her dogs)
DO YOUR PART TO CHANGE THIS STATISTIC WHEN IT MATTERS IN NOVEMBER!
are u fucking kidding me hey kids following me please make sure yall are voting in this fuckin midterm jesus louisus (with all due respect, of course)
REMEMBER THAT THIS COULD BE LIFE OR DEATH
FUCKING VOTE
And if you can’t physically go vote, look into voting by mail! It’s never to early to register to vote and it’s never too early to find out about voting by mail!
Even if you think you’re registered, they’re illegally deregistering people. Make sure you’re registered. It’s super fucking easy. Just go to turbovote.org.
vote.org is also a great website to both register to vote and find out if you’re still registered. Quick and EZ.
If you don’t vote, you’ve forfeited your bitching privileges.
Make sure to REALLY look into “voting by mail,” as in almost all states call it an “absentee ballot” and some make it quite difficult to get one based on disability.
ETA: Also TurboVote can help you register, but doesn’t seem to have a way of checking if you are already registered, despite what’s reported here. Your state’s Secretary of State office should have a page where you can look up your registration. Here is the one for my state, Texas: https://teamrv-mvp.sos.texas.gov/MVP/mvp.do
(Also, people, please stop adding shit to this post you only kinda sorta know about or haven’t checked into, or else you’re not helping. This is important!)
Dude, people back in the day were savage with words. When Thérèsa Tallien got arrested and was about to be guillotined, she sent a message to her influential lover who wasn’t doing anything to save her. The message only read “Je meurs d’appartenir à un lâche”, which can be translated as “I’m dying because I belong to a coward” or as “I die in despair at having belonged to a coward like you”. I dont know if i properly convey the savagery of these words through the translation but anyway she SNAPPED. And like, the dude was so shook by her words that the next day he participated in the overthrowing of the chief of the Terror (which was the current regime that consisted of guillotining literally every aristocrats and people not complying to the new government) and she got released instead of guillotined lol
A sketch thing I did for practicing hand-holding and then I was like but what if it were VENOM and then I was going to redo it better later but it’s me so I don’t get around to things so here it is.
