The troon's on his forum have their own private food stamps setup and this is the demo he catering to? I think there has got to be more of an element of trying to appease crazy pussy like Logan and Mandy to this patreon death spiral than I originally thought. It's one thing to post woke shit on you fb to wet goonette's panties. It's something else to do it to the point where you're losing thousands of dollars a year over it.
I know lowtax is lazy as shit and appeasing troon's is the easiest way to keep the forum's squeakiest wheel quiet, but it's hitting his bank account hard. His patreon has been on a steady decline since the crying in March, however; the typical end/beginning of the month drop has been about $2-300 with another $300ish coming throughout the rest of the month. The end of December drop plummeted $1,200 thanks to his shenanigans and we still have to see how the rest of the month goes. The patreon has lost double the amount of money in a week compared to what it's been losing monthly since it blew up. The fact that lowtax isn't screeching about this makes me think that he's still getting substantial income from the site/forum somehow or some other source like his mother. The motherfucker is paying a divorce lawyer on top of whatever tax and medical shit is still around, not to mention booze and pills.
A year or so back during one of his abloo-bloo-boo visits to the forums to e-beg, he let slip that the forums bring in about 3x their operating budget. Now tbf that's trusting the word of pillhead, but seems reasonable.
Back in 2014 or so, SA's banner ads alone were pulling 20-30K a year, but that with someone reasonably competent & not an ambien junkie running advertiser relations; SA's ad guy had ideas about how to increase that number, but Lowtax was opposed to
anything that required work or effort on his part increasing the presence of ads on his forums and seemed happy with the then current revenue.
I kinda feel like Kiwifarms missed the chance to have a whole dedicated forum to SA's idiocy. Lord knows there's been enough material since 2010 or so.
There is tons of hilarious e-drama on SA, but so much of it really gay and requires an understanding and appreciation of SA culture.
Plus the last thing you want to do is increase SA's cultural relevance.
I just googled it and thats the one that came up for me. Apparently there is more than one lol
There's ton of "Jooce" stories, all of them some variation of "Help I tried phenazepam for the first time 2 weeks ago. Those two weeks are now a complete blackout. I've lost my job, I'm being evicted, there is a warrant out my arrest, and my parents won't answer my calls, I don't remember anything!"
But my favorite goon drug story is still the guy who tries Angel's Trumpet, a plant that produces universally bad trips, chewing-off-your-own-tongue bad. and just decides he's going to do some - while he's watching his kids, with no dosing guidance.
