>>80501098>Saying she isn't ghosting us during these streaming periods is technically true, but it's disingenuous because no one is referring to those periods.No. It's not "technically" true - it is true in the real sense of the word. The fact that you're apparently not referring to those periods is what's disingenuous, because that means you're completely ignoring the very thing that you would need to measure to determine whether there's an improvement in Gura's ghosting or not.
>But it doesn't surprise me you'd frame it this way in order to claim the ghosting is improving.I'm sorry for "framing" it truthfully?
>Here's the thing. From my perspective, it isn't improving, because I remember when she didn't used to do this for more than 3 days at a time.So do I. But that's a rather dishonest point of comparison, now isn't it?
If we say that a plane is "accelerating" midflight, we aren't comparing its change in velocity to where it was at the moment it *took off* - we're comparing it to where it was in the previous instant in time, immediately before the change occurred. This is what gives us an idea of whether it's actually speeding up or slowing down, turning to the left or the right or tilting up or down, etc. etc. You can compare the *averages* over particular periods, but that doesn't necessarily give you an accurate picture of the direction the change is moving and where we can expect it to be in the future.
>Is her ghosting better than the end of last year? I suppose, considering she's only ghosted us for two one-month periods and one two-month period.Well, no, iirc. YouTube is giving me grief and not letting me log in to double check and I never had Shitter, but I'm pretty sure those are the periods separating her streams, not her *ghosting* periods. If we count tweets, the twitter space, streams on other channels like the Myth MC one-block collab, event appearances like the fes and the Dodger's game and other forms of communication, which by definition would constitute breaks in her ghosting, the picture changes.
>But it isn't better than last year as a whole.>And it's significantly worse than 2022.>Ans it's even worse than that for 2021.That's not the point that she's improving from. She's improving from where she was in 2023. See above.
>That's like saying someone's life is improved after he gets a brain tumor removed and goes through chemo. Sure, he might go out of remission now and then and need to go back on chemo, but at least that tumor is gone! See? Aren't you happier than you used to be before you got cancer?This analogy is garbage, anon. A better analogy would be that I'm pointing out that someone is *recovering* from an intense round of chemotherapy that brought them to the brink of death, or some other debilitating illness or treatment regimen. They might have worse days than others, but *compared to their lowest point,* they're making gradual, if slow and unstable, progress on the road back to normality.
>That's your argument and it's asinine.That is not, in fact, my argument, and no my argument is not asinine.
