I think it's worth mentioning that in the early 2000's Dr. Martens has almost went tits up, moved all the production to China and the quality nosedived hard but they've kept the high prices, leading to the shoes becoming overpriced status symbols with no redeeming qualities that made it popular in the first place.Dr Martens seems like an interesting company - all I knew about them is that Bri'ish comedian Alexei Sayle once sang a song about them (tried to turn it into Joshcore, it was too anglo). They're a English company but founded by a German army doctor in 1947 who developed his patented boots during the war as the standard issue boots were not comfortable especially after he broke his ankle. Over 75 years of experience, history and name recognition for xirs to come in and crash it all to the ground.
The Odysneed app is less bad than it used to be, but it still blows. That being said, at least it doesn't force you to sign up for an account like Rumble does.I prefer the way Odysneed looks, but Rumble is so clearly winning the alt-youtube war. It's not even close.
There was a bit of a revival in the early-mid '90s among a couple of subcultures. I'll never forget when girls wore Docs with long floral dresses and big sunhats. If there's one '90s trend overdue for a comeback, it's that one.as for the significance of the Dr. Martens brand, it all boils down to the working class and various subcultures of 60's and 70's Britain. It was a good, affordable shoe so it was very popular. Back in the day it was mostly associated with skinheads
Indeed- In this regard I would emphasize the facts that:I’m surprised that Null doesn’t know more about Souf Effrika. There already was a Genocide of Whites there and Null’s favorite Brit Winston Churchill helped kill the Dutch Boer’s who originally settled the area. They literally were herded into camps by the British and left to die of starvation, disease, and proximity to British people.
There also was some natives in the Cape area, but they more or less were groups of Hunter-gatherers and they typically didn’t really clash with the Dutch because the area was pretty vast.. There was also some Nguni tribes (Zulu and Xhosa) on the Eastern side.
The British basically used tribesmen to kill of Boer Settlements before actually openly engaging in genocide.
Well played."I'm getting better at pronouncing words, chrat."
From what I've read prior to the British re-writing the history of the Dutch in South Africa. It basically just was the Dutch expanding in regions that basically were sparsely settled and typically getting into small skirmishes that pushed the San and Khoikoi out of some of their territory or just letting the Khoikoi keep graze land in exchange for cows and information.San (hunter gatherers) and Khoikoi (pastoralists, occasional vege farmers) had absolutely present in the area in which the Afrikaaners originally settled. It was no 'terra nullius' - these people had been there since time immemorial. The Dutch vanquished them easily because they had low levels of technology, social organization, and resistance to filthy foreign diseases.
Byuu didn't have Carlos Mencia's accent.That linux Vtuber was the worst shit, funny as fuck if it is byu and they literally became a vtuber to escape their past tho
Donation Alerts has shit the bed. It was the primary superchat in viewer use & what Null reads first, but they pay out in either Paypal or into russian bank accounts via rubles. Null's Paypal that was associated with Donation Alerts has been banned, and he is not russian/does not have a russian bank account/has concerns about opening a russian bank account due to war sanctions in ongoing conflicts, so the money in his Donation Alerts account is trapped in limbo(for now).I may have misheard but did you say on stream one of the ways to tip you was not working?
I may be misremembering the old Baited podcast days but didn't Keem kick Tommy out at some point. Why is Keem having this guy around again, pretty sure it was a big fallout at the time?Null is right about how sleazy Tommy C sounds. He’s got that sleazy grease ball, shady used car dealer type of Voice.
