@nekaishi No. Didn’t you read the headline? This is literally “horrifying”

So, - Sykkuno was living with his girlfriend (who he struggled to actually break up with, even though the relationship was already dead) - He didn’t initially tell people who were highly interested in him and actively seeking him out - A ton of people wanted to sleep with him… and apparently wanted to move in after like two days of talking - He cheated on said girlfriend (who, from what Sykkuno himself said in the voice call, was basically a girlfriend in name only—we’ll probably learn more as this unfolds) - The accuser still wanted a relationship with him afterward but got cut out of his life - And then came the very coordinated effort to turn it into a full hit piece against him So… Sykkuno is a cheater and a player. He flirted with and got with consenting adults, but he was living with his kinda-sorta girlfriend and didn’t disclose it—which is nasty He’s an asshole, but calling him “dangerous” or a “predator” is straight-up defamatory. That word is heavily associated with pedophiles in everyone’s minds and feels like an intentional buzzword to sensationalize this and do maximum damage, rather than an actually honest take from the heart What seems to me should be the takeaway: the VTuber space needs to chill on being horny 24/7. We gotta stop ripping our clothes off within days for people we barely know… Streamers in general need to be more professional, and be way more skeptical of other content creators in general. When money and fame are involved, people (women included) are willing to accept or even participate in some wildly sketchy shit because it’s beneficial I’ve seen so much diabolical shit from women and men in this space over the past 5 years—all in the name of pride, greed, lust, envy, etc. It’s not even funny Tons of streamers do predatory shit. Some of it gets condemned, but the vast majority gets accepted, rewarded, and fiercely defended Also, big streamers almost NEVER lift up smaller ones—so when a massive creator comes at you, bells should be ringing immediately The VTuber space is an incredibly predatory place. Entire careers are built on inherently predatory dynamics for money and clout The problem here is that he cheated on a girlfriend he didn’t have the balls to break up with, and wasn’t completely honest with girls who were seriously interested in him about his situation. Motive seemed lustful in nature—which is something we see everywhere, ESPECIALLY in the VTuber scene, from a lot of women as well. Seems he wasn’t coming from a space of romantic interest. It was just lust from everyone all around He’s an asshole and a player—not a pedophile, not a rapist. He’s an ass and wrong for what he did, but he doesn’t seem to be the only one in the wrong. His girlfriend is the clear victim here, however TONS of streamers (women and men) are nasty and predatory. It should ALL be taken seriously, but it never ever is and likely never will be

@Qubism @ImOnL1fe @BreTweetz He’s not their boss. The women could benefit from him (he shouts them out on stream/co streams) but he has no power to make them lose their platform. Turns out 90% of the time “power imbalance” gets used it’s because gold diggers didn’t get the gold they wanted.

@ImOnL1fe @BreTweetz Yes it is the same in workplaces, why bosses could/should not date those that work for them. It is also the same way to think he is older so he have more power in that way also. And again he is a abuser to his gf so we know he dont mind controlling them

The whole Sykkuno situation is once again proving why you should not blindly believe all women

@vlht_17 @hayliekyu The power imbalance thing people throw around is bullshit 90% of the time anyways. Unless somebody is saying “if you don’t sleep with me you’re fired” it doesn’t apply. Like when a rich celebrity dates a random younger model. Did he truck her into it or is she a gold digger?

@hayliekyu Is he leveraging his status/wealth/looks? Yes But let's be ffr Im halfway through this bullshit doc and I don't see any implicit pressure or a person that feels they can't refuse or power imbalance, low key because of ppl like that no one cares about actual predators irl

So a streamer is considered a dangerous predator because he *checks notes* cheated on his gf and is a player. Have you ever seen what a dangerous predator does? Tired of y’all throwing serious labels around. I’d actually sue for that.

@Raioul_Troll @hayliekyu Stay safe because some dude wanted to play a Video game with you and not with your random friend? Lololol

@hayliekyu Like seriously...is this a fucking joke? How old are these fucking women?

@PenguinsPR “We can’t risk Tom Wilson injuring our players before playoffs. If he gets suspended today, they will play them tomorrow”

The following players will not play today and their statuses are considered day to day: - Sidney Crosby (lower-body) - Ben Kindel (upper-body) - Evgeni Malkin (upper-body) - Bryan Rust (lower-body) - Parker Wotherspoon (upper-body) - Erik Karlsson (lower-body) - Kris Letang (upper-body) Connor Dewar (lower-body) will not play today and is week to week.

@NHLPR @NHL_On_TNT @NHL @penguins @Capitals Very likely the last matchups these 2 have

A legendary rivalry hits triple digits this weekend. 100th all-time meeting: Saturday on ABC 101st all-time meeting: Sunday on @NHL_On_TNT, SN360

@MikeMonaco_ @penguins @Capitals Caps aren’t making the playoffs so I hope Tim Wilson doesn’t injure somebody because he’s butthurt.

Tomorrow on ABC ... for the 100th time, it's Sidney Crosby vs. Alex Ovechkin. @Penguins and @Capitals Incredible we've been able to witness this for 21 years. Can't wait.

@a51s1 @HeyLukOverThere @dyork55 Why is even attach the very clearly AI photo to this?

@HeyLukOverThere @dyork55 Ignore the ai photo

🚨 BREAKING 🚨 MH370 “Teleportation” Video Hoaxer Identified After nearly 12 years, the creator of the viral #MH370 “orb/teleportation” videos has been identified. Rowan Callahan, now 25, has come forward and said that he created both clips in 2014 as a middle schooler in Oregon while experimenting with basic VFX editing tools after school. “I was just messing around with Photoshop, Blender and AfterEffects and some early VFX stuff because I’d just gotten the Video Copilot JetStrike pack and wanted to see what I could make with it. You have to understand, the videos weren’t meant to be anything serious - just a plane and some effects.” According to Callahan, the videos were never intended to be tied to MH370. He says he shared short clips in an online gaming chat at the time, where two users later approached him asking for the files. “They offered to buy the videos. I didn’t think much of it - I was a kid, and kids aren’t exactly rolling in dough, so I was like ‘hell yeah, why not?’ And I ended up sending them over.” Those files would later surface online under the now-infamous “RegicideAnon” account, framed as “leaked” footage of MH370. Callahan says he didn’t realize how the clips were being used until much later. “I figured maybe they were using it for a project or indie game they were making or something. I didn’t think anyone would believe that videos that looked like those did could actually be real.” He also pointed out details that, in hindsight, should have been obvious red flags: •Static cloud layers that don’t move •Frozen ocean texture beneath the aircraft •A stock 777 model with a generic livery that doesn’t match Malaysia Airlines’ “Once they surfaced on YouTube and Reddit, I just assumed that people would immediately recognize them as fake.” Despite years of analysis and multiple independent debunks, the videos have continued circulating as “evidence” in conspiracy circles. Once confirmed, this will close one of the most persistent and pernicious internet hoaxes tied to the MH370 tragedy. More details to come soon.

@dyork55 This seems fake. lol. Not saying you’re faking it, but somebody is trying to take credit and it’s weird that they would lie to try to discredit it. (I don’t think the video is real but this story is suspicious)

I’m working to vet Rowan as best I can. He said he’ll provide me with the original source files, but until then, he was able to find this 🤩

@dyork55 @Deepneuron I’ve always doubted the video. BUT…. I also doubt this claim. The post reads like AI and the “photo” is clearly terrible AI. Why lie?

@TeamPokeColors This was like 2 years ago tho

@TeamPokeColors I got my squirtle for $4 and it bas no print lines. Super clean. Small comic shop that doesnt normally sell cards, had his kid decide to get rid of his cards and they were in the cabinet forever and they did a 75% off sale on most stuff in the store for Black Friday.

All 15 SV: 151 Illustration Rare cards will cost you about $750 to purchase on TCGplayer! 😱 So when people tell me that other sets have $2-$5 IRs, I’m all on board!

@Davidrios @tanialemon_ No. Zero excuse for this. They can claim “oh we are selling them as resealed for the opening experience” like some people on Facebook marketplace do but they know exactly who is buying them and what their reasoning is. The feign ignorance that people get them to sell and scam

@tanialemon_ That raises a serious question here. Is this acceptable in anyway?

Loose Pokémon packs are cooked 💀 now that factories can re-seal them at scale.

@KingJester98 LCSs that buy obviously scalped product are part of the problem.

Gotta love the scalper walking into the LGS to offload his hoard 🙃

@THEPOKEPLATEAU Honestly never liked that one lol

@PHicksUSMC See, I had people say that to me about the LO Giratina. Then I pulls it and my opinion didn’t change one bit.

Every single other Gengar card ever made has better artwork than this card.

@Rheaquaza It goes the other way as well, much more often. ESPECIALLY pre release “sales”

Another example of how market price does not match at all based on last sold. Someone tried to lower the market price with those 6 $1.10 sales lol 🤦‍♀️

NEVER FORGET 🐧🐧🐧

THE PENGUINS ARE PLAYOFFS BOUND‼️

How many Hundos do you own? 💯💯 #pokemongo
