"Irish butter is the best butter in Europe"

Surely, dear leader was drunk.
"Irish butter is considered the best in Europe. "

Danish butter is widely considered the best in the world, you potato lover.
It's been a long while since I was adjacent to the online paleo/low-carbers, but they were all a bit overly obsessed with Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter. No idea what kind of mark up they must have been paying for it in the US. I'm guessing it's something to do with European cows being grass fed and less hormone riddled than those in the US, but I don't know why Irish butter in particular.

Hey Josh, I hate to make this post because it comes to my detriment as an occasional super chatter:
If, after increasing the super chat price, you see no change in the time you spend reading chats, you're undercharging.
I feel like I learned about this a decade ago in calculus with regards to minimization and maximization, but I don't think you have the market research necessary to calculate the optimal pricing for super chats. (maybe that doesn't matter. look into it. it's your time and income. It's either calculus or some economics principle)

Point is, there is a theoretical point at which, if you were to continue to raise prices, you would find that your revenue starts to plateau, but the amount of "product" you deliver (the time you spend reading chats) declines. My personal recommendation is determinate on what degree you can configure tips.mati.live. (did you make that, or are you using an API of some sort? i have no idea.) I've seen services that allow you to insert an optional URL for the streamer. That's one option you do to paywall videos.

Also, super chats currently are still not priced per character. My guess is that, if you start to charge more for slightly longer messages, you'll find people blowing their load on one slightly longer super chat, rather than sending an additional chat, to the benefit of a couple seconds of your time. (additional time saves from needing to read fewer names + dono amounts. give me HRT and send me to GDQ for that time save)

That said, you also run the risk of pissing off your supporters and looking greedy, so that's also a risk you need to contend with.
I believe I've heard that often times bands will actually undercharge market price for their tickets so as to not wallet-rape their fans, but this comes at the cost of scalpers and low revenue.

Personally, I don't actually mind the extended super chat segment. I love listening to the sound of autism. However, I believe that there is both a theoretical maximum duration your super chat segment can last, a theoretical maximum revenue it can earn, and a surprising compromise in the middle. I'll trust your judgement on whether to take any of this advice into account. The way I see it, the more MATI I get to hear, and the more tranny faggot seething because you have money, the better.
 
But still the other side is still arguing on men’s behalf politically so Destiny wouldn’t be “wrong” to say they want more control over women on behalf of men. It would just be slimy to say.
Yeah in economics they call it the "bootleggers and baptists" concept. Basically it's how two groups which have completely opposite views and aims can end up coming together over a point that happens to overlap because of their extreme positions.

This is why the debate’s context as a political or cultural dispute, rather than a dry academic talk about the nature of marriage in principle, is important to acknowledge. Because it frees us of the awful obligation to pretend these guys are impartial observers
But what I'm saying is that yes, it absolutely NEEDS context. (Though I don't know who said anything about impartial observers.) Ok, you found some dudes saying something. Going by one of the links you posted, I see 28k who viewed the video. I also see 1.3k upvotes on it. (sorry, i need to get the plugin that shows downvotes) So just off that video we could say that 4.6% of folks who saw it agree with it. Even if we assume that was 100% men who watched & upvoted... that's still a tiny minority.

So like if it's one dude, then you need to show a pattern that they are either inconsistent of their views or not. If you're wanting to make some larger point, then you've got to gather up that context. (like if youngsters still get divorced, and it's women initiative 75% of the divorce, well.... are men really the issue or is there yet more data to uncover?) Certainly I agree that they're not impartial observers, but given that Destiny also sleeps around on his wife (and she does him), he's hardly an impartial observer himself.

Sargon is a lolcow, but he's able to employ people that aren't. The Lotuseaters is one of the few right wing platforms that's been able to attract paying subscribers, they've commissioned actual journalists with name recognition to produce content, and they've even sent a guy to Afghanistan to produce videos.
Yeah I like Callum. He may have the warm exterior of human, but deep in his chest beats the cold mechanical heart of a robot. :D

Unlike Tim Pool or Steven Crowder there aren't a load of sycophants crawling up the owners arse, and generally speaking they produce decent content if it's a little dry. Also Sargon beat Akilah Hughes like a rented mule, to the point where she had to start a crowd funder to pay Sargon his money (he also helped make US copyright law). I can laugh at all the dumb shit Sargon has done, while admitting that lotuseaters is worth £5 a month.
Yeah I hope someday inflation is fixed in America so I can maybe afford 5 British pounds.

Just off the top of my head, I recall Crowder excusing husbands from adultery by way of it always being the wife's fault while he gave a lecture about wives not being allowed to deny their husbands sex outright at any given time, and Dick Masterson thinks men should be allowed to cheat because they're just going to do it anyway. I can only imagine how many more of those degenerates I can't think of at this moment. To be entirely fair though, I can't remember Masterson's opinions on marriage past that.
ETA: It's not really naming just a few exceptions out of millions when their entire life and livlihood revolves around paypigs who literally pay them money to spout shit they agree with. Also yeah, Gunt too.

That Crowder clip I'd have to see though I haven't kept up with him for years now. Was Dick Masterson much of a proponent of marriage? Dude's still unhitched himself, isn't he? I mean of the examples you've named, Crowder would be the strongest example because 1) he WAS married himself and 2) I would believe him encouraging marriage and 3) he actually has a substantial following by a measurable metric. I only know of Ralph from this MATI show (and Dick likewise) but do they have much of a following that even cracks above that 1% mark I was talking about? Because again you've got to keep in mind the scale. If I could convince 1% of 1% of the world to give me a $1 a month in the name of the most random, insane idea you can think of - I would make $800k a month. Yeah, that seems a lot, but on the total scale, we're a bunch of nobodies.

(Even if we limited to just America, if the country has 350 mil people, then convincing 1% of 1% of that would net me $35k a month - yeah it seems large, but it's barely a rounding error in the census data)

If it’s not too arrogant to say I think I’d do better than Destiny on this podcast.
You probably would but that is a low bar. ;)
 
Each Raising Cane's I've been to has boards up inside with pictures of the dog the company is named after, describing how he was the best boy to ever live. The cups have it on them too, I want to say. Their tendies have a unique coating that separates them from any others I've ever bought; very thin and crispy in stead of thick, grainy and crunchy. The breading is pretty special and so is the Cane's sauce. They're also the easiest to blot pretty much all of the grease off of with napkins.
The best hack for Raising Cane's is to tell them (or order in the app) no slaw, double up the toast. Their Texas Toast side is amazing, while the slaw is just a half step above most grocery store cole slaws. There is no charge for this substitution.
 
4 major companies control most of the meat packing (70-85%, depending on who you ask/how its counted), but they are not the only USDA inspected slaughter houses. All commercial beef has to go through a USDA inspected slaughter house, and you can't run a ranch and a slaughter house as the same company/on the same land. There are independent/local meat packers, but you have to play a game/jump through hoops to sell meat farm-to-table as the producer.
 
Was Dick Masterson much of a proponent of marriage? Dude's still unhitched himself, isn't he?
It's possible Dick has said otherwise in the time since but I believe his stance on cheating wasn't that men in general should cheat. It's that if a man wants to cheat he should either just do it or if he's not going to do it then don't waste the mental energy on contemplating it. I don't follow Dick so if he's said "Yeah men should just fuck around all they want" I wouldn't be surprised but this isn't the first time that I've heard that that's what he's said but I've never seen anyone substantiate it beyond that stance that I just mentioned

How would a rebrand help out of curiosity? Why not just get another new domain in the vain of kiwifarms but modified a bit, like a different extension or add a dash between kiwi and farms? I feel like the same things will happen if kiwifarms rebrands its a bit optimistic to think people wont notice and complain to the DNS providers just as much to get them to drop the new domain.
A rebrand with a new llc would make it harder to deplatform. There would be cloudflare services available again as well.

Destiny is scum but he clearly has a high iq and puts a lot of effort into these things and I hate hate hate right wingers underestimating their opponents.

In a sports movie I’m the disgraced coach an underdog team comes to rely on, and I was fired for being too rough for the suits who couldn’t handle my methods.

Or, since it’s June, this fruitcake

I noticed that Null was streaming when I first got into work. I woke up early for nothing. Anyway I’m already out of work and listening to the replay while driving. Good stream so far.
I lost it at the I Love Israel.com rebranding lmao

The USDA’s Approved Immediate Slaughter Facilities is a comprehensive listing of slaughter plants inspected and approved by USDA APHIS to receive the listed livestock from Canada or Mexico for “Direct to Slaughter” purposes.

I can check with the local butcher, but I think the key is the canuk or beaner cow.

There's also an interstate commerce clause bullshit: https://www.aphis.usda.gov/aphis/ou...epidemiology-animalhealth-ceah/btc/main/index
