So she's close to the wall and wants to bail with the money she has and using this as an excuse than admit it.

Twitch has been my home for a decade...

No kidding.

A decade is like dog years to cookie cutter e-thots.

Not a bad business strategy, honestly, especially for somebody who simps for socialism...

And by "manosphere, red pill bullshit", she means a lack of simps who will give her free money and leverage with the company.

Why is every one of your comments couched in this pathetic self-congratulatory language? You offer up the exact same opinions as countless others in these spaces, but you always act like you personally discovered some grand epiphany or “totally called it” before anyone else. You’re literally a decade late to the party and acting like you started the whole thing. It’s insufferable. Just speak like a normal fucking person.

Weird how she throws out those words, but 90% of her money was made because of keyboard simps who want to see her naked.

I don't even understand how people can listen to the big podcasts. What is so compelling about rich guys bullshitting about their life for 3 hours?

The only podcast worth listening to is the Boyscast because Ryan Long is funny and it isn't too terribly long.

Also the one with Mike Ikenelli where he just talks about how to be better at fishing.

Traditional radio shows are also decent. It's just like listening to the radio with the show playing at the time of your chosing instead of live.
Also the hosts are usually way more professional and have guests that are actually knowledgeable. And they're also not incredible long, cause they're limited by programming.
Only downside is when they get to the "listeners can call in and ask questions/say shit" part of a show. I often cringe at those people.

Safe for work ASMR, straight from the blessed mouth of Pokimommy to your earholes. How else can she keep her tier 3 simps in line and paying 24/7?

Get it right. The target market of titty-streamers is twelve year old boys with their parents credit card.

The only thing twitch offers is access to a (formerly) untapped market of young males without any kind of age verification.

If Pokamane was actually doing porn or OnlyFools, she would not get any traction.

Just do a simple thought experiment and swap the genders: 28 year old gym bros flirt with twelve year old girls by the hundreds. They would be in police custody before the end of the day.

Don't undersell how disgustingly predatory this whole sordid business model is.

Twitch thots does more to damage the image of girls that game and cause more sexism/misogyny than any sexy video game characters.

Dont know who the hell is simping and paying millions to these hoe's that treat their viewers like dog shit. Must be cucks.

When people insult gamer girls in games, they dont invision the gamer girl as honoka or 2b, they invision the girl to be some cunt like pokimane or amouranth.

It's less about the quality, and more about the quantity. The memes can be shit, but if the message behind them is no one can stand your bullshit, the message hits home regardless.

fuck you Pokimane this is so fucking fake.

More banger quotes from the article:

"[Twitch's] priority is making money," she said. "My priority is making a cool, safe environment and community for many, many, many people. I think there are a lot of problems that minorities on Twitch still face and that I wish they could do more about.

And after shitting on them for being capitalist pigs, bigots, fascists, misogynists, etc, Twitch official can't help but simp.

Indeed, she admitted she would still be on Twitch "sometimes" and still had a lot of love for the company. Twitch even responded to her social media announcement: "You'll always have a home on Twitch, Poki".

Sounds like Pokimane had an exclusive streaming deal with Twitch that just expired and didn't get renewed.

So she has to do the whole "It's not me, it's you" to save face.

There's really no actual news here. She's not leaving Twitch, just not streaming there exclusively anymore as per the terms of her old contract.

Sounds like people were becoming more aware of her shtick as a parasocial softcore "totally not porn" personality and were advising men against it with her as the example.

Never forget that this thot was literally paid by Disney to appear on cable television. The girl most famous for her fart and feet compilations on the internet.

That's exactly why she was invited. Some producer in Disney has a brap fetish.
