Alright you’re not interested in things like “truth” or “good-faith conversation”, peace out.

No. Vtubers use a digital puppet rather than their own face/image, often for physical appeal but also privacy or just as a gimmick to stand out. It’s a specific thing.

Even if that were true, and it’s not, there’s a ton of streamers that aren’t vtubers.

Guns feel good to shoot. See how easy it is to oversimplify?

Entertainer is not a legitimate profession?

The implied alternative, that we should be grateful for the violent racists in the hopes that they hire better people, is unacceptable.

Haha fuck off, they were shit and then people got rightfully mad at them. Bootlicker.

Sure, but they aren’t actually doing their job. They’re sleeping in their cars or working a second “security” job but double-billing the hours.

Seattle has some of the worst cops in the country and we have for a long time. You’re thinking of weird hipster art and cafe culture, which does exist in a few neighborhoods, but the primary powers are big business like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, and Boeing.

What being raised in a death cult that promises eternal suffering does to a motherfucker.

You’ve clearly never seen me ignore all my biological needs to play games for 14 straight hours.

Good thing there’s already more good games out than I could play if I lived another hundred years.

It’s often harder to make “unscented” stuff because it means that none of the ingredients can leave a noticeable odor. Customers expect “no scent” not “smells like baking soda and tallow but not added fragrances”.

Thats kind of the whole problem with robots as tools. They can be incredibly fast and precise but if something is just slightly out of expected alignment they tear themselves apart (or kill someone nearby).

Yeah she’s been selling as a hobby for like 25 years, she got started because typical commercial scents and dyes didn’t play nice with her skin. So she mostly uses natural pigments like clays and oxides and mica. It makes the more saturated colors hard to get (but the earthy stuff plays well in the Seattle market and her business is as big as she wants it to be, so not a lot of pressure to change beyond pure hobby fun).

Oh good, you’re in a different market so you aren’t competing with my mom :P

What do you use for colors? They’ve very vibrant and I know it’s hard to get those reds and blues without fading or staining.

There’s a context where that’s fine and there’s a context where that’s supporting the Democratic party which is unambiguously against the rules of the community. Read the sidebar, understand the rules and the culture before posting. Lurk more.

Or you could just not engage with communities whose rules you don’t want to follow.

Americans aren’t allowed to enjoy anything.

US postal (ZIP) code. “Beverly Hills, 90210” was a TV series in the 90s so it’s one that a lot of people are generally aware of. “Dawson’s Creek” is another 90’s TV show that used Paula Cole’s I Don’t Want to Wait for the theme song. 90108 is not a real ZIP code but “nine oh one oh eight” sounds like the song lyrics. We frequently say “oh” for zero in phone numbers and ZIP codes and that sort of thing. “Four oh niiine two three oh four” is the rest of the line of the song.

The whole thing is squarely aimed at US Millenials/Gen X.
