Most social media stuff.

Omg did you hear X did Y?

I guess I'm just old but I don't follow most. Even with dogpiling PirateSoftware. Yes, he's wrong and probably lied. I just don't get the hype around it. I'm happy that the hype led to Stop Killing Games getting enough traction though, that was nice.

I've never heard that name in my life, and I'm petty sure I don't care one way or another. My daughter gets wrapped up in internet drama and I can't for the life of me understand why. I am not drawn to drama but were I, there is plenty to be found in my own life. It's all so performative and pointless — the good and the bad.

I've been watching countless PirateSoftware drama videos since it's the clown that keeps on giving. I never bothered with drama channels on YouTube, so I never realized how much of an industry these people made out of it now that I keep getting recommend them. It's sickening.
