[Strain Show @StrainShow]

@TeamYouTube @YouTubeCreators I’m asking for a real human review of my deleted channel, Strain Show.

After 9 years and over 400k subscribers, my channel was removed after a strike that was flagged at the 0:01 timestamp of a long video, before I even said anything.
I did not even have time to appeal that specific strike before the entire channel was deleted.

I appealed the termination through the standard process, but that appeal was rejected almost instantly.

Strain Show was built around education, science, history, safety, policy, and legal industry coverage. I do not believe the channel violated the rules it was accused of breaking.

Channel: https://t.co/RyB2rU9yIh
0:01 strike: https://t.co/pKzKii88bK

I’m not asking for special treatment. I’m asking for a careful human review.

If my videos ever helped you, taught you something, or made cannabis less confusing, please repost this and ask YouTube to take another look.

@amato_mike I dunno, Auston Matthews' first big night on the job was kinda memorable.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@PatientMental3 @BraggingRtsSpts @FriedgeHNIC THIS MUCH media covering the Leafs & fans are still confused about what can happen.

If the Leafs get a top 10 pick in 2027? TML gets to decide if they will protect the top 10 pick from Philly (BOS gets it) or not (Philly gets it).

Yes. The Leafs could effectively TRADE it.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@BraggingRtsSpts @FriedgeHNIC No, this has never happened before in pro sports - and it is unlikely AF to happen next year now, too.

But it *could* happen. Nobody thought last year at this time the Leafs would not make the playoffs this year, let alone pick #1OA next month.

But it *can* happen.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@BraggingRtsSpts @FriedgeHNIC If the Leafs don't make playoffs & choose in top 10 in 2027? The Leafs GET TO DECIDE which of Boston or Philly gets the pick.

Yes, if TML wins the #1 overall pick next year. The Leafs get to decide who gets it.

Yes, they can accept trades from BOS or PHI for that #1OA pick.

@The_Acumen I saw a tweet of yours posted earlier today on FB, below.

"Your NEIGHBOURS are going to commit"?

WTF ?

Canada has NEVER attacked America. Ever. The British last did in 1815.

You'd know that if the history you claim to put such stock in was something you bothered to read.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@TMLGLG That's how the refs saw it. Predestined double minor, for "reasons".

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@josephdzita A save would have been nice on that one.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@ezwelchman @KPapetti Yes it would. He has been AWFUL.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@KPapetti If this does not turn around in the next two weeks? Berube is going to be looking for work.

This team is BAD.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

It was the 3rd goal. That killed the entire team, from the coach on down. #Leafs #LeafsForever

I expect Morgan Rielly, NTC or no, is going to feel the heat, too.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@VivaLaStool @spittinchiclets @barstoolsports @BizNasty2point0 @BizNasty2point0 Takes it on the chin again for rooting along with the largest fanbase in hockey.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

. @jonassiegel @mirtle What I care about most -- above any other issue -- is for a clear, wholly transparent, and fulsome discussion about Auston Matthews and his health during the season.

They owe us that.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

Sportsnet with their "Leaf Hating Stats" in the score bug -- just to make #Leafs haters happy, is fucking insulting to your fans. #Leafsforver.

Fuck you #sportsnet

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@FultonReed6 Helley's problem between the ears in the playoffs might be set off and exacerbated by the errors of others and just puck luck ...

But that doesn't mean that the mental struggle for him here isn't real.

I think it's all too VERY fucking real at this point.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@DarrenMetselaar The problem at this time of year is between his ears. That doesn't make it less of a hurdle - or less real.

This isn't merely happenstance and bad luck. There's LOTS of that, too, but ...

then there is gnawing doubt.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

#GoJetsGo This is the thing with that team and this goalie. He is a Vezina Standing Stone in the regular season, but the playoff pressure catches his head in treacherous mental loops.

I don't know how you fix it. Maybe you can't. Just Hope it works itself out?

Pretty much.

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@chroniclehockey @EASPORTSNHL Then the Canes in 5, only to SWEPT in 4 by the Leafs?!!

It's #Leafs hockey porn, but I'd pay everything to watch it!

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@EASPORTSNHL I'm old enough my "soul" is relevant, but I'd grant a mortgage over it for this masturbatory fantasy to come true IRL. *sigh*

[Steel_Wind @Steel_WindR]

@justleafism Laughton was clearly the wrong move. Carlo is okay.

Neither matter a damn with Matthews playing like he is.

When your best player isn't your best player -- and never has been all year?

Curtains.
