@sighyam hk Chinese here, mainland Chinese are literally dogs with no morals, all this building and development it just out of insecurity for their shit culture
English

China haters are so funny because they refuse to praise China for things that China does objectively better than all their countries. Imagine sitting there being like “not that impressive it’s just a bunch of skyscrapers with neon lights, massive scale urban planning, energy infrastructure to support hundreds of millions of people, nationwide high-speed rail, dense supply chains, port logistics, modern digital payment ecosystems and entire megacities built in decades” just dimwits 💀

At some point orgs need to stand behind their players instead of fake outrage people on twitter. If you had literally any backbone, this nonsense would end pretty fast. This shit only happens because you bend over backwards to please people who aren't even being genuine in the first place.

Today, one of our Overwatch players used an anti-Black racial slur in the chat during a scrim. To the Black players, fans, and members of our community this affected: I'm sorry. I want to be unequivocal in condemning the language he used. There is no place for it in our game, in

@flexinja At least you're taking accountability and have no shame in admitting your own faults, its too common for people to always blame or take it out on everyone except themselves and expect things to magically get better.
If anything you'll turn it around with that mindset.

i’m 13k in credit card debt, owe a friend 7k, and super behind on taxes
when i first blew up in Valorant over 5 years ago, i went all in with no back up plan and now life is kicking my ass
i set myself up for success, establishing my name making pretty decent money
but now i’m struggling due to lack of passion to create content, figuring out how to rejoin society, and feeling so far behind that i often don’t feel human
in Valorant terms it’s like blowing a 12-0 lead and then losing in overtime, shit was going smooth and then we fucked up big
the hardest lesson i’ve learned about being a streamer/content creator, you have to stay super consistent. take time off and you’ll destroy your numbers
before Valorant: i created content as a hobby while working at FedEx with no idea what i wanted to do with my life
during the height of my success, i never had a good grasp of what money means since i don’t come from money or how to manage it
i was also a very inexperienced 24 year old, never touched alcohol/weed, and was nervous navigating the airport for the first time having never been on a flight
then one weekend, i decided that i was doing well in life with my newfound hype online so i took my first flight and fell in love with the feeling of drinking/smoking
as you can imagine, i spiraled out of control. lost my consistency when it came to streaming and creating content. overall my mood was destroyed slowly
along with getting drunk and high a ton, i fell into the ubereats death trap where i didn’t cook any of my meals for 3 years or so which is disgusting to say
but hey, you only spawn once on this rock and not everyone is brought up to have all the right answers
i’m happy to say i cook 99% of my meals now and eat super clean/boring now as my priority revolves around gym progress
i’m 30 now and still have no idea what i’m doing with my life, but i’m sure if i remain positive i will eventually figure something that makes me excited to wake up
having zero passion for Valorant being known as a Valorant creator kills me inside. i’m the least happiest version of myself trying to grind the same content for 5 years in a row. and it really reflects my mood on stream. this is also a really shitty part about streaming is putting yourself in a box fulfilling one niche
—
my biggest advice if you jumping into the streamer / content creation life, if you find your niche and you’re gaining hype please hold on to it and ride with it and don’t try living above your means ($$)
but my BEST advice (something that i didn’t do) is to have a backup plan that will give you stability if things don’t work out — i never had one and still don’t yet
a third piece of advice never hurts: burn out really fucking sucks. so if you find any success online doing one thing, try to add some variety eventually so you don’t put yourself in a one-niche box
unless you absolutely love what you do online and can visualize how passionate you will be after years down the line
—
going broke after being financially well off has been one of my greatest lessons i’ll ever get to experience — i really know the value of money now when it comes to paying bills, grocery shopping, and living a more inexpensive lifestyle
so the next time i’m up in life, i’ll be more prepared to spend properly and invest
you can use this post to make fun of me, but i want to be transparent because people just assume you’re well off if you have a decent sized following — nah, not if you’re dumb as fuck like me 😂
hope this post can help someone in the future not make the same mistakes i did
much love y’all, i got some work to do 🫡

@yumestarion using a preferred/nickname is very common in actual adult jobs

Yeah the trans community is basically on constant fire because of these people. 10 years ago if someone was trans it was no one's business except their own, these days it's a trend by these porn addicted lonely males to openly display their fetish and if they get called out for it then they can hide behind the simple fact that they're "women".
It's insanely sinister when you think about it.
English

@PhantomLexOF @Discord_Lies Ugh that’s horrible how insidious those actions can be.
English

@CorpoScum @Discord_Lies They're not even gay, it's just a way to get closer to women. Kinda like this one streamer that uses his "transition" as a way to normalize his own fetish on women.

@CSLostArchive Firing at a slower rate to maintain accuracy now if you did that in CSGO bullets would fly to South Africa
English

Assuming you meant you can't out aim someone with good game sense, in the context of CSGO this is very much how it works.
The game revolves around rules and cooldowns for your weapon (inaccuracy), the low uptime on the sharp accuracy is the reason why 30+ year olds can still compete in the game.
If the accuracy window was changed to be more snappy as in, full accuracy the moment you touch the ground, full accuracy the moment you stopped your strafe. The game would be dominated by underage kids.
