It is tedious AF to have the enemy on the allied council.
It's an odd post, but I have to admit I had the same fascination. I remember finding out that she exists when the YT video I was listening to ended and, before I got my phone out of my pocket, it had auto played some girl introducing the story of a LARP theme park I had never heard of. An hour later I was heavily informed about the tale of Evermore despite giving no shits about theme parks.
I listened to a couple more of her essays on topics I have no inherent interest in, then took a closer look at her channel. I thought, I'll add her to my Patreon list for awhile, I've gotten several hours of entertainment. Queue the holy shit when I ran the numbers.
Sometimes people make good stuff, and then they are financially rewarded for that. Good for her.
Edit: English better.

It's perfectly reasonable for PC gamers who use the Steam platform, which provides copy protection, to be annoyed by having to sign onto services they otherwise would never use. There is no purpose to it aside from marketing and data collection.
Rancid cunts, the lot of them.
If the criteria for declaring a state military organization as terrorists, is abuses of international humanitarian convention and the rules of war, then the Revolutionary Guard can pop onto the list along with the IDF. And a bunch of others really. Calling groups and people terrorists is pretty popular these days, but the word actually has a legitimate use, which isn't to ratify Israeli acts of war against other sovereign nations. Even if, like Israel, those nations are run by shit heads.
Bonding over a love of bombing civilians I presume.
I think it's the "said no land Lord ever" bit. There's a lot of investment property owners with hundreds of units that can be shady AF. It's just tough to be the " I can handle this mortgage if I get a basement suite rented out and work really hard" and get lumped in.
I was gonna say, I'm a landlord and I work Monday to Friday... and I rely on your rent check.
The teeth in the background. Horror movie scene.
I've thought about this as I was someone who jumped onto Mastodon as soon as Twitter went dark side. I think the reason it never became a go-to for me like Lemmy has, is the fundamental difference in how I used Reddit and Twitter.
With Reddit, while I curated my feed by following subs, I was really looking for something to cover me when I was idle for a time, and wanted to scroll. I am not too choosy about what I want to see, just surprise me.
Twitter was strictly a service that I used to follow organizations and individuals. I never went to trending or anything like that. My follows were just accounts I gained interest in somewhere else. Mastodon failed because probably less than 10% of the accounts I followed even tried the service. There was nothing to see.
The problem is, he isn't fit. He's just less unfit. People are frustrated that instead of a normal, reasonable alternative, they have to pick the less ridiculous of two ridiculous options.
