Contra, you are a total international treasure!!! I discovered a reference to your work in Laura Bate's, Men who hate women, and it was the one spark of hope in that book, for breaking through all that hate-grooming. There should be hundreds like you ... I am your new devoted stan.

I love that you had a "nyaa" voice coach. I had such a horrible day yesterday for reasons, crying more than I have in a long time... watching your vid was a highlight of the day though and I gotta say I squee'd and melted and giggled every single time you nyaa'd (they were perfect). I'm not even a weeb ok I'm just Japanese!! Please be well! Love ya forever thank you Natalie! <3 <3

Hey Contra, I think you may be able to use some more support. And I support you. The sheer volume of work you've produced. The quality, the powerful rhetoric, could never be outweighed by a fucking tweet. There is so much you'd have to do wrong to disprove the fact that you're a great person. The evidence is overwhelming, that you are 100% legit, and your abusers (yes abusers) are not. I hope this can nudge the needle in a positive direction for you.

Found your videos 2 weeks ago and I'm seriously addicted. I hope you prioritize your mental health and don't pressure yourself too much &lt;3 Anyways, as a philosophy &amp; Buddhism nerd, I wanted to nerd a bit about Karma. I think the meaning of Karma in Buddhism is far from how that word is commonly understood nowadays. I think it has more to do with psychology and ethics than justice or divine law. Here's an excerpt by Joanna Macy on Karma: "...the Buddha emphasized the centrality of volition. It is what we choose that bears a recoil effect upon us - creating tendencies and dispositions, forming and perpetuating habits. Karma then is not deterministic, mechanical or inexorable, but can always be modified by present choice... Indeed, the very process of choice-making constitutes our changing, but continuous identity. We cannot escape the effects of our choices because that is what we are. These consequences are inescapable, not because there is a God that watches and tallies, but because our acts co-determine what we become" https://www.jstor.org/stable/40018242

Is Taxi Driver another movie that fuels this genre/ideology? On another note, what has been the success and failures of cities and countries with unarmed police forces?

Avery Griffin

Best summary of the Odyssey ever.

Great video! But I'm kind of sad to hear you so down on yourself, saying that you're "dissatisfied" with yourself. Your work is incredibly well-made, thoughtful, and obviously requires an enormous effort. I know the youtube wolves probably get hungry after X number of months and start demanding content, but please know that most of us realize how involved this is and totally support you in however long your next project takes &lt;3

ope, Tabby's gone feral after getting maced one too many times. Great video, Natalie. Sorry that your eyes had minds of their own, but it was fun to keep track of, at least...for me, not for you. Take care of yourself, etc., etc., things suck right now and also always.

This was Nyat what I was expecting.

How long does it take to get your name added to videos once you become a patron?

I'm not sure what you're talking about. She said she'd get back to me yesterday, but never did so I'm just trying to get thru cause I know she gets like 200 messages a day. No ill will here. As for Insta, I don't use Instagram.

I'm glad Cringe prepared me so that I had already deeply examined and dealt with my feelings on Catgirls and can now face them head on.

Still waiting for a reply :(
