If someone is going through a mental health crisis, unqualified streamers assisting them seems like something that should be outright disallowed by Twitch.
As it said in the article, these people are not trained to handle these situations. Most of them are just people playing video games and chatting for…

Maybe everyone can’t be accountable for everyone else, all the time, because of some random proximity to an individual over a digital service.

But should streamers be doing this? They are usually not mental health professionals, and these situations can be dangerously precarious.

I’ve gotta agree, and I say this as someone living with depression. It’s kind of ludicrous to expect a videogame streaming service to provide any sort of actual mental help. Link people to the suicide hotline, maybe even their local crisis services if you want to go a little further, but in no way should companies be…

how about you just leave and pretend it’s gone? everybody wins. k thanks.

I don’t see how twitch could provide medical healthcare to random people in real time. Furthermore, it would open them up for legal liability.

protip: if you look closely you can tell the females have boobs too.

“no woman I know who’d go into combat would do so dressed in an impractical fashion”.

Oh, fuck off. The manga takes place in fucking Colorado, with a mostly white cast. Whitewashed my ass. Either you’ve never read it, and are talking out of your ass, or you didn’t pay attention, and are talking out of your ass.

That tweet about why they only stylized the girl and not the doctor is on point. Why is he only wearing a stupid lab coat instead of the cyber punk scientist outfit from the manga?

I dunno, I like them?

Hot marketing take: Netflix, maybe, just maybe, it might be seen as bad PR to slag your own product. Or your customers.

Twitter actually causes much social harm.

The “Her body, her choice” mantra doesn’t count when it goes against a far-left ideology which, in this case, is the lie that sleeping with gay men doesn’t drastically increase your chances of contracting HIV.

How is choosing whose penis you allow to enter your vagina bigoted or homophobic? Are we so politically correct now that we can’t decide for ourselves who we have sex with?

Its a very expensive, chronic medical condition. Its akin to giving someone cancer.

The gay porn side is not nearly as stringent with testing as many gay porn performers have whistle blown over the years. In condom shoots there’s a don’t ask don’t tell philosophy. And performers do show up with dated certificates and still shoot as long as the other party doesn’t ask. In bareback shoots it can go…

Well porn-sex usually means hours of rather mechanical sex. Women are likely to get micro-tears in their vaginas, which increases the risk of HIV-transmission

What’s bigoted about a women not wanting to have unprotected sex? She’s not anti-gay, she’s anti-STD. I thought a woman had a right to choose what happens to her body. I guess that only applies if she passes your ideological test.
