Anti's and trolls arent interested in arguments, only just making life uncomfortable for anyone else so you can't even debate with them. During streams your best solution is just blocking and ignoring them and not engaging at risk of making an already awkward situation worse and often giving them attention only fuels them to continue with future attacks. It feels like a frustrating uphill battle where you can only play the silent pacifist and not give into any compromising anger while watching shit hit the fan catastrophically.

In her position, many people would find it hard to remain 'professional', yet that's what the world expects of her. Just... imagine how it feels to have people draw art of your character getting railed by your friend, just because people don't like your friend, and by extension you for being friends with them, because they said one negative thing about the restaurant you currently work at. Of course, the 'professional' thing to do would just remain silent, but keeping that facade up 100% of the time? That's inhuman... There's bound to be some slip ups...

Thanks for making this clip. I like her music and all (didn’t discover her till her restaurant job and even then wasn’t an avid follower of either gig) but her approach to all this really makes me respect her.

Looking back, I appreciate the progression to a more happy/upbeat tone of more recent streams

Thanks a lot for posting those clips, her smile is really bright!

"I deserve it... for the asshole that I was" crazy heavy wisdom, no wonder she's killing it

"I'll be happy when I'm Successful" So that's the reason for that line

I've been a fan since finding you via Fake Type's Princess (as the artist and then finding you did music too) and it's always good to be reminded that the people whose works you find you resonate with aren't just putting it out because of the success it brings, but because they are people just like you and want to express themselves and figure out what their happiness is. The fact that we get our own little slice of happiness from it is just an extra bonus.

I have a lot of respect for this woman in general, and she's an extreme inspiration to me, so any decision she makes I can almost guarantee I'll support and be happy with. And I am sorry to say to her that I sometimes can be one of those people who see content creators talk about their issues and wonder how they could feel this way when they got everything I could ever wish for, and sometimes think I wish I could be them... but I know especially with her case here, and others in the same situation as her, I can tell the stress is real and the emotions. I was kinda like the her in the past, but once again her words are making me think a bit differently about that. I only want her to know that I really really respect her. There's so much more I want to say but It be too much.

So many good things to hear from this video.

Not a content creator but this is so relatable. I've had a... bad experience with a community and it shattered me. Still recovering

Thanks for giving us a short version of the stream. Honestly I hope I can share a drink with person One day.

Shiiiiiid that was so well put out and clear but still complex as you hell since this is the reflection of a feeling a whole lotta ppl go through and dont truly grasp the meanin of Feels good having reference point out there telling us shid is real

3:50 I fucking love "You're an Ace, kid!" It legit helped me out of a tough time.

This is pretty touching to watch, and is a great insight to how life is, that even if you find success financially it won't solve everything. It still rings true no matter where we go.

i love the ep so much because despite me not being on her level of content creation and all that stuff i feel all of what she says so much and i see how im not the only one feeling shit about what people do and say to me so many people dont like me and so many people hate her too but shes able to let her feelings out about it in such an artistic way and i really praise her for that honestly i miss when my youtube channel and twitter account ect were just echo chambers of myself, but success has things that make me happy as well so its hard to decide on what you really wanted

This is enlightening, bless DD 🙏

as someone that wanted to watch only a portion of this before going to sleep, i ended up watching the whole video. Its so interesting and entertaining just listening to this. It's so good.

Very glad this was on bandcamp,gonna listen to these teaks a lot.

Thanks for this!

"Everyone's happiness looks different" is a really good take

I cried watching this. More ups for u DD!!!

Woman be spitting facts. I like how she doesn't hesitate to berate her past self and gotten introspective on how much has changed from before to recent times. =w=)

To me it's not necessarily berating your past self that's impressive. I think anyone who has been alive for long enough can agree that it's not that hard to cringe at how stupid you used to be. What's remarkable is how easily she admits it to an audience of hundreds of strangers. I'd say it's ultimately beneficial to do so, as it provides an interesting insight into how the personal problems of others can affect even big public figures.

I really love how she express with the gestures and all, is like movie character.

2 years later i'm glad she is where she is rn. Having new friends and kouhais at her "restaurant" job seems to put her in a better place mentally. Especially with all the buzz sorrounding the "restaurant" industry rn

Its called being humbled. I admire your honesty to yourself. Major respect with that.

Love to see honest people like her, Hope she will gain a great success on the major contract in her restaurant job

Truth! Once you aren't scrambling to survive you can actually assess yourself, maybe even start looking for fulfilment.

"i look outside my window and i think 'wow its a beautiful day outside'" now that, my friend, is one of the signs that you're one step closer to your own form of happiness. when you don't feel as much stress, when you don't feel the load on your back, when you see the view outside with such clarity, when you finally able to appreciate your life. i'm still searching for that moment where i can finally look outside my window and say "such a beautiful day" with all my heart. aside from my ramblings, challenges of life are there and GG for Karen to properly address hers.

"As a friend of mine once said... Everyone's success looks different." That hit very deep. Very very deep knowing where I've heard that before...

Man, what have I jump down into? I love this.

DD really is such a nice person. It's great that shes able to vent about shit and be an honest human being and to see that her fans are actually being respectful.

I’m a teacher and sometimes middle schoolers and their constant sass make me want to slam my head against the wall, and I only have to deal with a couple assholes a day for an hour. Yeah it’s my job and they’re just kids so I can compartmentalize it, but I’d be lying if I said the disrespect doesn’t get frustrating. I couldn’t imagine getting targeted harassment from thousands of people of the same maturity level every minute of every day. Even if they’re just tweets and KZread comments from people who don’t matter and even if it’s just a job, it sounds like hell and is one of the reasons I never want to be famous. On the Internet or otherwise

Sure, meeting your goals will solve the basic human troubles, but from that point new troubles come, and there's nothing else than gratitude that can get you out of putting yourself down because you still have troubles.

You know Karen is a track producer when the heaphones she uses are the MDR 7506.

@@zad_rasera Pretty much those headphones are some of the most if not the most common headphones that professional musicians use while recording, because they are mad for monitoring and they are equalized flat, so nothing is going to be lower or higher in the mix based on equalization, so if like if you think that the bass is high when listening in those headphones, the that means that it literally is high, so maybe there are right now better headphones for that purpose, bur these are like 150 USD and are not that far from the better options that could be thousands of dollars, well those headphones were priced at thousands of dollars in the past because they were the best from 1991, but they have become cheap as the years pass and they are still a top tier headphone.

There are many not-so-expensive flat response headphones musicians use too... AKG has quite a few of them as well. She's in Japan, getting and using a Sony is just natural. But hey... Not all people who make music uses that. (IMO... that Sony is still quite base heavy. A bit too much for a studio monitor... I don't own one, I was just looking at the response curve I googled. I use an AKG and a Shure )

I am happy that she has an outlet where she can vent and show her creative side at the same time. I think it is important in general to have a place where she can be herself.

Shut Up, Get Happy is honestly one of my fav albums ever, and while I love Dice, this isn't normally the genre I'm listening to

Is this the start of the Demondice Clips Industrial Complex? Let's go!!

“Your friends is the treasure you made for you” - DDK

this is why end of a life is so powerful also i can relate a bit Stop the pity party, listen You don't get to be dismayed You don't get to be emotional Feel blessed you got it made These the best of years of life Because you chose to make a trade

The treasure is the friends we make along the way

I love how she never changed her personality with her other-self. She just doing what she loves.

Her talking about her new friends hits me right in the heart ♥

currently making an original anime video and I absolutely feel what she felt even I'm not any where close to being successful but tbh when you get so much stress and felt bad from like how others thinks about what you do and relative asking when will you get a real job. Even tho I know I walk into this with everything prepared in terms of financially (I saved up for this project) and emotionally(or so I thought), even if this project of mine end in a failure I can walk out relatively safe (as I have no responsibility ie. debt and stuff like that and living with my parents helps a lot) and can start over. I still feel like a piece of shit everyday. sry for typing this much here I hope this didn't make your day bad. But all I want to say is even I'm gonna feel like a shit everyday, even if when I have to face all those social anxiety when talking about work with friends or parents, being able to write an original story and slowly drawing each frames day by day, inches by inches am I closer to completing the animation. All I want to do is to write a story and let everyone to watch it. I may walk away with nothing at the end, but I get to make anime, I get to tell my own story which is the treasure that I treasure the most and the only thing that I am working towards up to this point. What she said at the end of the video just makes me in tears and decide to write this down. I was a bit down recently but yeah, am very lit right now

My respect for Dice, she's so wholesome in everything

It took me a great many years to come to terms with the idea that happiness is transitory, not an achievable state of being. As much as I wish it were otherwise, no matter how well you ever do for yourself, there will always be something to make you unhappy. That seems to be what she's getting at here and I see how it's easy to see someone with something we don't have and think, "Really? What have you got to complain about?". I've caught myself in that same line of thinking plenty of times because well, I'm only human.

Emotion Alchemy. Turning negative to positive! Love to see it!

Damn, that stream was a whole therapy session I loved it

Many people can't handle it when someone else does well at something. I'm reminded of that today.

Some of her "restaurant" job customers can be absolutely fucking psychotic, like Jesus Christ...

Idol schizos being idol schizos, nothing new

I recommend listening to Your An Ace Kid and Fake Ass Gold immediately after. It's a perfect combo of tracks

I've been watching her stuff at Applebitches since Sept 2020 when they debuted that it got so impregnated into my brain that now its so weird to listen to her voice as DDK, it's so weird but I actually love it a lot, I really appreciate her.

Holy shit. So much rage. 100% understandable and ok she wants to talk about it, though. I'm glad she is doing what she needs to feel better

1:43 This sass is sooooo gooooooood wtffff I LOVEEE IT!

It’s strange how people talk about success. We have this expectation that we know what its going to be like when we’re there, that we become different people somehow… Yet, that’s impossible right? Having goals may be motivating but we need to agree that achieving them does not guarantee happiness, that reaching those goals wont be transformative. I feel like coming to terms with that can be destructive at times…
