Whenever a game creates a protagonist female character men start whining. Women have been playing games with male protagonists for years and can embrace and connect with them but men can't do the same for women. They make it clear in every way that they don't see women as humans
I just received ART OF HORIZON ZERO DAWN HC : Davies, Paul: https://t.co/8wD4XASjGf: Books from littlezee via Throne. Thank you! https://t.co/6xfpeVmE03 #Wishlist#Throne
thinking about how in barbie land where everything is perfect for women, men still aren't suffering. they aren't in servitude, they aren't being objectified or harassed. they are just not the main characters. but in a world run by and for men, women are NEVER safe. that's the difference between feminists and misogynists. women just want to be left alone, while men don't see us as humans.
Twitch is actually breaking my heart and idk what else to do for help. So I’m asking social media to do their thing here. Not for me, but for my community and for the memory of my friend.
‼️LONG POST‼️
In November, I did a full month subathon for my 5 year Partnerversary. During that subathon we SMASHED our all time highest sub count, raising it from 5200 to 6600+. During said subathon, one of my best friends (and moderators), @TenuousLight, personally gifted 900+ subs to ensure we got as many new emote slots as we could before the subs started dropping off.
Also happening at that same time, Twitch’s BIG issue of displaying incorrect sub counts in their dashboards. This also went on for WEEKS and it started happening a few days after I started my subathon. Due to knowing the sub counts were showing as incorrect, but the API still pulling the correct sub counts, I started downloading the sub count CSV files every time we crossed a new threshold for a new emote. I knew I would need records of reaching these goals if the automated emote unlocking system didn’t unlock an emote even if we passed the threshold.
Of course, my subathon ended and the sub counts were still broken. My 6600 sub point emote slot remained locked because their system was inaccurate, showing nearly 90 less subs than I actually had. I filed a support ticket with Partner @TwitchSupport and was met with AI responses about all kinds of stuff, and it never answered my questions. This went on for weeks.
January 4th, my community and I learned that Tenuous passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on NYE. We’ve been devastated by this news and grieving for two straight months now. What makes it even worse is knowing his last huge support to me is not being acknowledged by Twitch. So I started filing for support help again.
I was met with more AI responses and bullshit. Telling me how to get Plus Program (which I have) and how to use Twitch Alerts for more emote slots (already do). I started just all caps screaming in the replies. Crying and losing sleep over this shitstorm of a situation. Then 2 days ago, a human finally replies?!
They proceed to tell me that not only can they NOT manually unlock emotes because the system is “fully automated” but that even if they could, they don’t have the data from that far back (and they used the wrong date and said April when it was November??) or it would take too many resources to find - implying that me and my issue are not worth their time.
I explain that I have the CSV files from all my sub goals that month. They reply saying they cannot even use them. They tell me their own files that they provide to us are useless to their own engineering team. Which I find incredibly hard to believe.
So I then ask FIRMLY, why they can’t escalate this and do anything to help me? Tenuous literally had given over 4k subs in my channel alone, all he did was support streamers and give their platform money. They don’t care, they just tell me they can’t help me anymore and close my case.
I’m so sick of this shit. I shouldn’t have had to fight for weeks to talk to a REAL PERSON as a Twitch Partner, and then they basically tell me that me and my dead best friend’s money are not worth their time. Like, is this really how we wanna treat the people keeping the platform afloat?
Absolutely egregious.
DO FUCKING BETTER @Twitch
A woman I know was followed home at night.
She didn’t run. She didn’t yell. She laughed at his jokes. Complimented his shoes. Pretended she was flattered by the attention. She gave him her number just to make it home alive. Blocked it the second her door locked behind her. Men call this “leading someone on.” Women call it survival. Men will never fully grasp the calculations women make in real time just to stay alive.
league is adding voice chat and men are really acting confused about why women don't want it
like we haven't been playing valorant, overwatch, and CS for years
like we don't already know exactly what's going to happen
the second you speak it's one of three things:
"oh shit a girl, add me after"
"oh shit a girl, gg go next"
or just straight up harassment
there's no other option
men act like we're being dramatic but we've lived this in every game with voice
we know the script
we know how it goes
and the funniest part is men swearing "just mute them"
we've been muting OUR entire existence in YOUR games
we play better when you don't know we're here
because the second you know
suddenly every mistake is because we're a girl
every loss is our fault
every play we make gets questioned
even when we're carrying
even when we're higher rank
even when we're just better
it doesn't matter
because even when we play at a man's best, we need to play 10x better than that for it to mean something
we spoke in voice so now we're a "boosted egirl"
men really think voice chat will improve communication
meanwhile women have been communicating fine with pings for 15 years
we learned the entire ping system
we learned to type fast between plays
we learned to shotcall without ever speaking
because we had to
and now men want us to just "give voice a try"
like we haven't already tried in every other game
like we don't already know
that the second we speak half the lobby focuses more on our voice than the game
either trying to impress us
or trying to run us off the platform
there's no in between
so yeah we're not excited about voice chat
not because we're shy
because we're tired
tired of proving we deserve to be here
tired of the "damn you're good for a girl"
tired of getting friend requests after one good game
tired of callouts turning into flirting
we just want to play the game
but men can't let that happen
they have to make it about us being women
every single time
so we'll keep voice off
we'll keep pinging
we'll keep carrying silently
and men will keep wondering why women don't use voice
while being exactly the reason we don't
study the luumi way
Funny how most restaurants are full of male chefs, but at home it's magically a woman's duty. Basically, when it's an unpaid job, it's 'for women.' When it's profitable, suddenly it's a 'man's passion.'
I absolutely hate hate HATE pads adverts. Periods aren't jolly or boss babe moments. They're exhausting, insufferable and excruciatingly painful. We should be getting work day offs not adverts.
“How to k*ll a woman without leaving a trace” was googled 163 million times in 2025.
But it’s okay let’s talk about alimony and the male loneliness epidemic.
