lol they found my post, we get it you hate women. Twitter isn't even dignifying them with alerting me they commented. If you really think threatening R*pe is funny banter you need some new comedy in your life.
Hearing this shit makes me sick to the stomach. This isn’t banter, this isn’t funny. When women say they choose the bear this is why, when they carry keys between their fingers this is why, when they have a gf ready to call this why. This is gross

It’s 2023 so it's time to update or make your very first media kit. So here is a thread about media kits and everything you need to know!
What is a media kit? It’s a visual resume used as an introduction to who you are as a creator and what can provide.

Just remember if you think streaming is hard it’s because it is. You are doing a live show for multiple hours where you’re the star, technically support, writers, directors, sound design, graphic designer, social media advertiser. All while probably having a job or schooling

Thank you everyone who has checked in on me. I’m doing fine although being introduced as the “person who bitches” by the CEO wasn’t on my bingo card.
I understand some may not have liked how direct I was with my questions and that’s fine.

Streamer tip 2. Female streamers don’t have it easier. If they have more viewers and a larger community I’m sorry to tell you they are just more entertaining than you. Don’t complain. Look and see what you can learn from them.

I've been getting the same question a lot recently. Will I be playing/streaming the new Hogwarts game?
No, I won't be.
JKR's impact has real-world effects on marginalised people and I don't want to promote the works of someone doing what she is.

Just a hot reminder, that if you didn't get a creator pass for PAX, this was just the first round of acceptance emails. ALSO not getting a pass doesn't mean you aren't a great creator, please remember that you make cool stuff and your worth isnt defined by these types of things💜

Hey

I found this VHS from the '90s. Is there any chance yall still sell the Atomic Purple Stream Deck? Idk, maybe on Amazon Prime Day? (July 16-17th)
I heard they're a limited edition, so I guess people will have to pick one up quickly.

Thoughts after yesterday's stream with Dan.
If the intention is to globalize Twitch's offerings, there needs to be more inclusion and consideration for streamers outside of NA i.e. unity guilds, twitch rivals, etc.

Don’t come to these safe spaces and be an idiot. Events and cons are special to the people who attend them and they should feel safe.
Just because you are making content doesn’t entitle you shit. If your content is going up and harassing attendees. Leave and don’t come back
People who come to our festival with the intent to disrupt, harass, or create negative experiences, are not welcome.
Incidents that we are/were aware of from the weekend have been dealt with, and those individuals will never be welcome at any of our events now or in the future.

If you didn’t get a creator pass it’s ok to be upset but it’s not ok to belittle the people that did get one. They pick from a range of creator of all shapes and sizes, and there are only so many they can give out.
You gain nothing by bringing people down.

If a streamer is doing something different from their normal content and you aren’t down with it. It’s ok to just not watch. I guarantee the streamer will think more highly of you than if you complain in chat.

You don’t have to agree with 100% of everything but please don’t try and invalidate my concerns. I don’t have all the information so I can’t solve Twitch’s issues, that’s on them to fix. What I can do is highlight areas they need to work on.

Todays pride stream was meant to be on the front page of twitch anz, not sure what happened on the backend but that didn’t happen, to say I’m disappointed is in understatement.
