Even bad actors have a point in some discussions.

That’s splitting hairs. What percent of customers are aware of or able to use an alternative? Apple goes above and beyond to make you think the App Store is the only way (and frankly, the only legal way), even if this is not technically true. Just as users COULD get an Internet Explorer alternative on Windows, but…

“he paints his relative inexperience as a key motivation for why he’s running for Congress in North Carolina’s 11th district.”

His name is “Madison Cawthorn”....he was BORN as an Old White Guy

From the few articles I bothered to read, he’s the kind of guy who cheats on his wife multiple times and films children in a public restroom. It doesn’t sound like the persona and the man himself are all that different. 

It managed to be a surprise for people who don’t constantly update their news feed.  I for one was pleasantly surprised and happy for the PS4 players who were waiting for this.  Sorry if my happiness for them rains on your parade.

This should be the motto for adulthood: “Why did I do this thing? I knew I would hate it.”

Imagine creating an organization that celebrates conspicuous consumption and unearned wealth and then having either the extreme self-awareness, or the extreme lack thereof, to call your organization One Percent.

Grief hits you in the weirdest ways. I lost my father to COVID in early April. (He was already in ill health, and was recovering from an operation in the hospital when he caught it, and passed away a week later.) When I was growing up, the SNES was the first system we got, and I have very fond memories of playing DKC…

It’s always something like ‘Bradley “PizzaWalrus” Wickendorf,’ or ‘Christopher “Ultrafetish” Jenkins.’

My understanding is he really isn’t a Doctor of Disrespect. It was more of an honorary degree, like Mr. Phil.

The excuse always lobbed up from fans of these personalities are that it’s all a ‘schtick,’ and comedy. As if all these edge-lord streamers went to school for performance, spent years studying and working their craft. No, as we are seeing again and again, they’re just shitty people.

Your assumption is that those 20k viewers wouldn’t be watching something else on Twitch if it wasn’t for him.

Twitch HQ was ashamed when Marie Kondo visited.

Said it before, I’ll say it again.
