Alex Pretti was murdered.

@Kweyyy I highly doubt that, the NBA (the league and the players) was very explicit in their support for the Black Lives Matter movement. I was expecting something like that again this time around

@GoncOak Most likely because of their agent, it is known that player can’t speak on political subject, and that the agency that represent them will try to shut them off to

Genuine question, why aren't NBA athletes protesting against ICE? We only got two coaches speaking out on what's going on recently, as far as I know Am I missing something or are they just silent?

@GrimyRannarr Definitely check out Adega Leonor on Jardim da Cordoaria. Pints used to cost 2€ or something cheap like that. Jardim do Morro is a popular sunset spot, but I have never been there

Any mutuals from Porto. Going there this weekend on a stag and need some recommendations for evening activities 🇵🇹🇵🇹

@MnmzzzCS @GrimyRannarr Yep, for three months!

@GrimyRannarr @GoncOak you lived in Porto, right?

Trans women belong in ESL Impact. The point of ESL Impact is to provide a place for competition to women where they won't be constantly challenged and criticized purely on the basis of their gender. The barriers to competition are not biological. They're societal and situational. The barrier is the fact that any young girl trying to play CS is going to encounter such a barrage of hate and misery simply for the sound of their voice that the vast majority will turn away from the game instead of enduring. The barrier is that in order to get a shot in a competitive team in ECL, Advanced, Main, really any level of serious competition a woman will need to go above and beyond what would be asked of their peers to overcome bias. These biases and barriers exist for trans women just the same as they do for cis women. Our scene is stronger and more vibrant the more representation and opportunity we have. Let's keep building on that.

@MnmzzzCS It's the one thing I won't really miss doing 😅 Thank you, Jeff! Enjoy your stay in Serbia

Covering NA CS is legitimately so hard when you're in Europe, big respect to @GoncOak and other previous D2 writers who have done it.

Had a long conversation with @RyanAtRBM late last year, about Dust2, money, work addiction, hostile readers and major retraction-worthy mistakes. Ryan was really very candid — which I appreciate.

@angelgun666 @RyanAtRBM @dust2us Rip

@GoncOak @RyanAtRBM @dust2us rip the goat

The recent news of @RyanAtRBM's layoff and Dust2.us' future project as a company-owned website came as a shock to me. As such, December will be my last month as a @dust2us writer.

@FranKCS_ @RyanAtRBM @dust2us @MnmzzzCS @ScoobsterCS @counterscottGO @DoktorWaldo Thank you, Frank! Crazy to think all this started with RBM

@MnmzzzCS @RyanAtRBM @dust2us Thank you for everything, Jeff! You helped me a lot, and getting to work with you in Cologne was an experience of a lifetime.

@GoncOak @RyanAtRBM @dust2us It's been fantastic working with over the past 2+ years and seeing you develop as a writer in English and in general. It really feels like an end of an era and I'm so happy we got to meet in Cologne last year. Good luck on your doctorate!

@ParksCasts @RyanAtRBM @dust2us Thank you, Scott! It was an honor meeting you and experiencing an event with you and the guys. I know Impact coverage is in good hands with all you have been doing

@GoncOak @RyanAtRBM @dust2us Good luck with the Doctorate! I'm super happy I got to meet you in Valencia last year! Appreciate all the coverage of Impact you've done, it won't be the same without you

Tomorrow will be my last day @dust2us Was a pleasure writing for the site, attending events, and running Dust2us' socials. Had an absolute blast with @RyanAtRBM, @MnmzzzCS, @GoncOak, @counterscottGO, and anyone and everyone else I worked with these past 2.5 years.

I have kind of let podcasting fall by the wayside in recent months due to work commitments and travel, but it's something I absolutely love doing and want to get back into. With my schedule opening up I am available if anyone needs a guest for podcasts in the coming months.

@RyanAtRBM Thank you for giving me the platform to do so. You were a great boss, colleague, friend, and person to hang around (online) everyday. Thank you for making me better, boss

Making sure we covered ESL Impact in NA was so important to me. Goncalo did it brilliantly and gave the scene was it deserved.

@DoktorWaldo @RyanAtRBM @dust2us @MnmzzzCS @ScoobsterCS @counterscottGO @ESLImpact Thank you, Waldo! It means a lot coming from you

@GoncOak @RyanAtRBM @dust2us @MnmzzzCS @ScoobsterCS @counterscottGO It’s been a privilege Gonc, your attention to and support of the @ESLImpact scene with your work was an incredible boost to the D2 site and the NA community. You’ll be an asset to any employer anywhere you go.

Ryan and Jeff are two of the best personalities in NACS and two of the most important people in my life, it's just sad to see them (and the rest of the team) getting screwed over by things out of their control. These people worked tirelessly every day and deserve much much better
