Fucking
@Twitch
man. You cannot allow people to broadcast themselves beating their wives in front of their children on your service, regardless of any particulars (she started it, etc) involved. The cunt has to go. Permanently. Back to Burget King, bro. You fucked it up.
MrDeadMoth, who you might best know from beating a woman during a livestream on Twitch, has now been unbanned on the streaming service. He is advertising a stream later today.
Incidentally, NOT putting some gross-arse pop-up bullshit on my show to remind fucking jellyfish that they have a free sub to spend, all the while pretending it's for their benefit and not so I make more fucking money, is, seriously, the easiest choice I've ever had to make.
All Twitch streamers should have this extension on their channel. Remind your viewers while they’re in your chat about their free sub!
Seriously. Easy choice.
So an old friend, hearing of my PS5 plight, just swung by to give me his one. He said he really only wants to play Cyberpunk so he doesn't need it right now and watching Xander open at his birthday party will be worth waiting for mine to show up and replace it.
We're saved.
PAX was great as usual, met plenty of awesome folks and old friends and made a few new ones but it was meeting this guy right here with my boy that made for a memory I won't soon forget. Thanks, Spidey. He was a little star-struck but that hug meant everything to this little guy.
Merry Christmas. Happy Holidays. Happy Solstice. They're all just fucking synonyms for "hey, have a nice end of December doing whatever the fuck it is you do this time of year."
As if I'm supposed to vet every cunt I speak to before I wish them a seasonal greeting. Insanity.
My wife got a bunch of my friends and family together to surprise me for my Birthday today. Because of my schedule, that meant getting everyone over before 9AM, which wasn't easy on anyone but made the gesture all the sweeter. No B'day show today, but we'll do something tomorrow.
No, fuck you and your dumb fuck little anime profile picture in your dumb fuck little face you whiny little cunt. Here's how it works - I tweet my thoughts to my followers; if you don't like what you're reading, keep scrolling, but keep that dumb fuck mouth closed and don't @ me.
It's just past midnight down here, and I've just smashed a glass of milk, eaten my cookie and loaded the tree with a shiny stack of prezzies. Time for this Santa to try get some sleep. Merry Christmas to you, see ya on the other side.
Upgraded the studio with a new sound system and an electric desk. Took a bit more wrangling than I'd hoped but I've got it mostly in working order again, so expect a return to regularly unscheduled broadcasts within the next couple of days. Missed ya, seeya soon. <3
I joke about it, but the reality is pretty clear now. If the goal is to have ads removed from your channel - or to limit which are shown - as it is for many, then the strategy is to make your channel unfriendly to advertising without violating the ToS. Let the games begin.
Spanish porn star Nacho Vidal, who likes to advertise his aromatic candles shaped like male genitalia on Twitter, has been arrested on manslaughter charges following a man's death during a mystic ritual in which he inhaled psychedelic toad venom
@AFP
Looks like I just got auto-DMCA'd by
@SquareEnix
. Apparently, they're allowed to tell retailers to sell it, I'm allowed to go to a store and buy it, and without any official communication they're allowed to have my Twitch channel suspended for streaming it. Nice dudes.
Yesterday I was informed that Twitch has Indefinitely Suspended Advertising on my channel
Twitch didn't reach out in any way whatsoever. I had to initiate the conversation after noticing, without any prior warning, all the ads revenue had disappeared from my Channel Analytics
More than 80 hours playing Sekiro so far; I haven't solved every mystery, beaten every boss, or finished the game even once... and still, 20 minutes after I put it down for the day, it's all I can think about.
What a fucking masterpiece. I'm completely overwhelmed.
See, it's dumb shit like this that makes me fear what it means to so brazenly refer to broadcasters and creators as influencers. This dude can't even make room for the possibility that, starting out, the correct path might just be create something you love and take pride in it.
The sunset outside my place right now is unreal. The fucking rain coming down in the distance and the birds going apeshit in the background... fucking 👌.
November 19, 2007. Incidentally, the first photo of my wife and I uploaded to Facebook. I think we were seeing Infected Mushroom that night, can't remember anymore. That entire era of parties blended together long ago. Pay no attention to the pupil dilation.
The odds we would find a place with both of our favourite characters from our favourite game series’ right out the front… hahaha, just incredible.
And don’t get me fucking started on the inside…
I was wary of the new Witcher adaptation on Netflix, afraid that it would pander to the less critical crowd in order to avoid doing the heavy lifting need to satiate long-time fans of the stories.
Three episodes in and I love it. Faithful, yet fresh and so beautifully shot.
Indeed, not only will 'Blacksmith' continue to help you shill for Amazon on the day-to-day, but now for game publishers at large during E3, by using your hype-charged reactions to sell uneducated, uninformed purchases on upcoming games before they're reviewed. Go get 'em, tiger!

Just saw Joker! Fucking powerful. I definitely got the show I expected going in, but I was pleasantly surprised by how raw it really was to see it. Joaquin Phoenix's performance was somehow horrifying and heartwarming in equal measure, often at the same time. Enraptured me.

Congratulations to
@WetForJesus
for being in last place in a Sekiro race for 14 fucking hours, before swooping in to take the win.
One of a kind cunt right there.
I've been dickin' around with a new cam for the vinyl setup and it's got me rethinking my entire fucking show's visual presentation. I don't know what direction exactly but here's one take I like. Any thoughts?
Another long drive ahead of me tomorrow: we're heading down to sign papers that will soon become the purchase of our first house. Exciting fucking times.
It does mean I'll be gone another couple of days, and I'll miss you all dearly, but I promise it'll be worth the wait. ;)
Just watched a giant fucking hornet kill a giant fucking spider and drag it across my yard. This is a new level of horror, even for an Australian. Would've snapped pics but it dropped its prey and came after us. Next time, maybe.
Oh God please don't let there be a next time...
Son: “Can you grab the Switch for me Dad?”
Me: “How about I grab you a good book too?”
Son: “No thanks I hate books. I hate books they make me learn and I can’t play games.”
This wasn’t the plan.
For the first time in 10+ years on the platform I had my Twitter account suspended, because I told some dude who pitied me for the way I behave, to keep his pity to himself and called him a cunt. I broke none of the specified ToS criteria listed, and was reprimanded and punished.
Someone fuckwit at Twitch made a brash, hasty decision motivated by bitterness and spite that had unforeseen consequences resulting in lot of kids watching a lot of porn.
Nice fucking job cockhead.
So, out of fucking nowhere, one of my all-time favourite music creators made a song especially for me. It's a fuckin' banger, too. Love you,
@VHSGlitch
, so fucking much. This is just way too fucking cool. <3
That's a wrap! Cunts4Koalas is finished and I'm off for the rest of the year. The last month has been fucking packed and I'm lookin' forward to a couple of weeks out and about with family.
Have a great Christmas season, and I'll see you in Jan for our return to Dark Souls 2. <3
I still believe that our role is to entertain the people watching us, not advertise to them. I’d rather watch someone slaying A game they love and are passionate about, over “the” game of generating an income. Hustle if you have to, sure, but don’t pretend it’s good content.
I freakin’ love seeing people posting

content. It’s inspiring seeing my creator friends slaying the game 👑
Support those posts, videos and streams when you see them and your favourite creator might be able to invest that income into producing even BETTER content.
Hit a few snags today but I think I've got Project Studio + Mini Cinema V1.0 finished! Gonna tidy it off and relax for the evening with a loud fucking movie; Dark Souls III at the 'regular time' tomorrow!
Roughly 4k raised already thanks to a whole lot of generous fucking cunts; thanks to everyone who joined today, we'll be back on tomorrow for another day of Halo: Reach on CUNTS4KOALAS!
Here's a cheeky bonus snap from the calendar shoot because you're all so fucking rad.
I love the idea that you can leave Twitch for a huge payout to join a new competitor, take another huge payout when said competitor collapses, come back to Twitch with millions more than you had when you left, and they’ll still pay to advertise you over anyone else. 😂
“Don’t go overboard,” I thought to myself. “It’s been 20 years since you DM’d a campaign. Just get a couple of things and ease back into it. You can always get more later.”
Yeah. Sure.
With
@Twitter
planning to remove public likes and RTs soon, it makes me wonder what a
@Twitch
might look like without viewer numbers displayed.
Like, just for a week, I'd love to see how navigation changes when directories are filtered by anything other than number of viewers.
Skipping today's show, sorry. Can't get in the mood. Quit the vape and haven't had a ciggie for almost a week; going strong but feelin' a bit on edge haha.
New studio is prepped and ready. Tomorrow we start moving the big stuff, then we jigsaw the fucker together. If all goes well this will be a studio + mini cinema to remember!
Twitch adds a category for hot tubs before they add one for video game development. I know it’s beating a dead horse at this point but fuck you really couldn’t make this shit up.
It's been three months since we submitted this to
@Twitch
UserVoice. It's the top voted request in Categories by more than double and the 3rd highest request of all time. Twitch has completely ignored it.
God damn...
You've got such a good eye for those melancholic moments; I saw your drawing of MAN the other day and it captured a similar expression. Absolutely stunning mate, thank you. I'll be keeping this one forever.
