It lands somewhere between a camgirl and a runescape GF.
Apparently it’s his hoe
Probably Gabe Newell
7 digit steam ID and only level 15. Clearly, my life took a wrong turn somewhere..
Sometimes, when I think I’m stupid af, I remember that people like this exist and I feel a little better.
Not the dumbest thing I've heard of huge amounts of money getting spent on it.
You hear about that dipshit who spent 44 billion buying one of the most popular social media sites in the world only to not use its name?
But he's a business genius… /s
RIP little blue bird, RIP
Nah, fuck that blue bird. Glad to see it's demise
I miss so much my community I had on Twitter
Now it’s gone. People left for a mix of substack, blue sky, and different mastodon instances. Some people just left entirely.
The bird site was great in the early days when it was a bunch of micro blogs. It was basically freely hosted short form RSS feeds. I could keep track of so many things so easily from all my devices.
When the focus changed to more of a "town square" rather than just "hey I/we did this thing and you should know about it in 255 characters or less!" that's when it became a mess.
Musk took a useful platform, failed to see it for what it is at its best, and elevated what made it its worst (gossip, rage baiting, berating, false information, and sensitizationalized content lacking nuance or substance). To be clear, that transition predates Musk and was driven more by users than Twitter the company, but Musk accelerated it (this is fundamentally visible in moves like monetizing the API which prevented Twitter ingesting and outputting various feeds for a large number of use cases).
9000 dollars for a gun in CS!? I spent that much for my entire steam library. Sounds utterly disgusting to me.
Isn't that not even a crazy amount for CS standards? Don't get me wrong, it's insane to me how people spend money on this. But i thought the most expensive items are in the 10s or 20 thousands.
My most expensive item in inventory was about 0.06 euros last time I checked.
Makes me really motivated to spend 15 minutes trying to figure out how to sell that stuff.
Nah. The most expensive item in csgo is a karambit blue gem. One person offered 1.5 mil dollars for it and the seller declined because it wasn't enough. It is speculated to be worth over 2 mil dollars.
Sounds like nft without blockchain.
Why?
Rarity. Even though its just pixels, it’s still rare.
Stop giving these people attention, simple as.
What's with the "the article does x" retelling, it gives me the biggest ick. What's wrong with just quoting a salient paragraph or two?
Smells like a AI generated summary to me.
It certainly is and I absolutely fucking hate it.
Do I even want to know what Discord Kitten is?
And to answer most people’s question, this is commonly referred to as being unwell. It the result of an untreated addiction, plain and simple.
If you need to ask, you do not want to know.
For anyone else curious, "Discord kitten" is apparently a (mostly sarcastic) slang term for "suger baby". I was really hoping for actual kittens, but alas.
I swear the discord kitten stuff was just a meme and some degenerates thought it was a good idea
Sugar daddies get sex out of it. That's just simping for an egirl!
I had heard that term before, but was hoping there was some other meaning revolving around something in their steam inventory
I will never understand why people would spend so much money to be on top of such a leaderboard. And to spend so much money to have a gun that is offensive in a game.
Because they've got enough money that it doesn't matter at all to them.
Yup. If I recall, this guy is some Saudi prince with more money than he knows what to do with. So some of it gets spent on stuff like this.
