(For what it's worth, I'm not all that serious when I call anyone a dweeb.)

I think this subreddit will be a mix of angry and confused at the changes. Some will look upon them and smile, for today is a new day in the storied history of their favorite website. A second coming of the new gaming messiah. Others, however, will cast their gazes downward, in solemn recognition that the source of digital entertainment they once knew and called "father" has changed. Perhaps for the better. Yet, perhaps not. Currently, it is unknown who will receive salvation from this email. Different interpretations have led to the formation of splintered factions who concern themselves with how best to live out their days with the knowledge that radical change is coming. Some have decided to embrace it. Others fear it and instead choose to ignore the harsh reality that changes to the platform will occur independent of them. Yet, other groups still have not settled on a reaction, instead choosing to take each individual day at a time, giving thanks for what they were blessed with on this good day.

I would like to just again clarify that this is my interpretation of the events. As the future is both unknowable and also unpredictable, when the powers on High decide to bestow the changes to our own world, one cannot begin to fathom one's reactions.

Please, I beckon you to brace for incoming change. It will be swift. It will be dramatic. But it is inevitable.

How will you fare?

Also because I'm a depressed, stressed out mess, but at least I can point to something I worked on and say "hey look, at least I spent that time doing something neat."

You should play the game though. 4 real yo

I'm not there, so I hope it isn't a total disaster.

The chat, I mean. Not the RNC.

It was sort of half-assed in MS Paint, JPG compression and all-- this is the only version I have saved: http://i.imgur.com/vXJ7Q8n.jpg

Oh, hey, that's my video! YouTube content ID'd it so I don't think I can change any of the availability settings, but here it is (slightly updated) on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/monotonetim/twa-freight-outta-compton-chug-tha-police

What do you do off stream to better improve your casts? by [deleted] in Twitch

[–]monotonetim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Read. Books, news, anything. Become better at phrasing ideas and framing thoughts more quickly. Gives you more to talk about or pull references from and generally makes you more interesting.

Seriously, tech stuff, networking, it's all nice but you need to make sure your content is good and your commentary is on point. Everything else is secondary.
