Don't be mean. I promise to do my best to judge that fairly.

i have a friend who was doing a twitch fundraiser, right? it was a fundraiser for a good cause. i DO fundraisers for a living. So i pop on, say hi, she doesn't recognize me, i drop in 50 bucks because fundraiser and i could afford to tighten the belt that month. like, this is a normal donation in the charity world. She Did Not Tell Me that she was eating a slice of lemon for every dollar that was donated. Oh My Gods i have never felt so guilty for doing a fundraiser i tried to stop her. I had no idea this was a huge donation for twitch.
honestly, i still feel kinda guilty and it's been years.
Paying your friend to eat 50 lemon slices in a row is a fantastic story at least. That's hilarious.
accidentally paying your friend to eat 50 lemon slices in a row.
five whole lemons.
i really wish she'd told me. the lemons on my lemon tree are sweet, not sour. why did she use her own lemons
If she used sweet lemons, the whores would steal them
i have had exactly zero whores try to steal my lemons...
i am dressed pretty slutty.
am... am i the whore?
am… am i the whore?
Yes however we all enjoy your lemons 😉
here eat 50 slices
No wait, you're doing it backwards. Whores are the financially responsible ones, they accept money, not give it.
nothing could possibly go wrong eating 50 slices of lemon and then straight to bed how does that meme go
So what was the plan if there was a $1,000 donation?
Honestly? I think they spent the money in their heads (she was also in the group she was fundraising for) before they ate the lemons in their heads
Clip it?
This was years ago and i have spent like a total of five hours watching twitch(they were all that stream to see if anyone else would make my mistake. She explained the rules better when people logged in)
Twitch streamers, YouTubers, only fans, unrelated but scalpers probably belong here as well.
Scalpers aren’t really living off the hospitality of others, they’re taking advantage of illiquidity to create arbitrage and fuck over regular people.

Roman society is immensely grim sounding
Roman society is pretty much the basis for the western world. The Romans are largely the reason for the rampant patriarchy we have today among other things, for instance.
At least their patriarchy came with gay sex ☹️
Hey, the Greeks deserve some mentioning as well.
Until the Christians ruined it :(
Our modern state is built on its foundations and they've been fucking us ever since.
I totally agree - didn't they invent the word?
But yeah, reading about the patriarchal structure in Roman society was like...
Because there's a clear cut path from what they set up back then to where we are today. Thanks, Romans.

But not this one thing, which I see a lot.
That's a fun read, thanks!

Thought it was kick streamers.
There's still examples of people being paid to live in peoples' homes as sex servants and whatnot, let's not act like this kind of thing just evolves out of existance. I think I even remember a reddit post of someone talking about how a married couple paid for their tuition in exchange for being a plaything for them while at college.
There are stories in British tabloids every few months about how young women in university are paying for their education by being available at the whim of wealthy sugar daddies.

my body looks weird. lots of scar tissue. i was a regular model at the art school and they loved me because i'm so fucking lumpy. my mother would be so ashamed to learn i had to take my clothes off for money to get through school, because i also had a full time and part time job and loans and that still wasn't enough to survive. she's a prude though, this was art. that one is a secret between my wife and i (who funny enough did it at one of those mormon schools, so she got to wear a swimsuit)
You guys are getting paid??
YouTuber since 2006, here: I have not received a single cent. They demonetized me (along with millions others when they changed their rules) shortly before I hit the $100 payout threshold and then kept the money.
