Where do you see that? I'm not seeing it on Twitter.
Lol, apparently it looks like she deleted it before I could archive it.
Here's the copy-pasted text I still have on my nitter page:

I’d also like to offer some transparency because this will be discussed on Matt’s solo show tomorrow; this is pretty much all I want to say about it, though.
After a spat resulting from my tardiness when I tore a ligament in my foot on Wednesday, Matt called me today and flatly issued me three terms:
In order to continue to appear with me in the future, I would have to take a pay cut from 50/50 to 60/40, to stay for the duration of reading superchats instead of putting my children to bed, and to increase my work and effort level on the show.
I have done considerably less work on the show than Matt. This has always been the case, as he retains the majority of creative control. However, the last few years, I have become bored with the news cycle and I think it has been obvious to the audience.
I suggested that I pick and populate half of the topics, split the proceeds 55/45 in his favor and we continue to work together. I was rejected and was told that his family’s livelihood cannot be gambled on me.
His ultimatum was completely fair. I do less work. But I resented being given an ultimatum and list of terms, as well as my offer being denied.
I am very sorry about this. So, I suppose, it is true that I quit, but not without impetus. It is also true that I did not want to do a final stream where we squabbled over the details of our parting.
Please understand that this was not because I don’t love the audience or think that I don’t owe you an explanation. I merely found the idea so uncomfortable that I didn’t want to do it.
No matter what is said about me on tomorrow’s stream, I am not going to respond so as not to drag this out further. I’ve also been asked to not speak in the chat again.
Once again, thank you for your years of support and I hope this has shed some light on what happened.
