        If it grows infinitely, contact your doctor instantly!

        And also if you manage to do that, you should contact the Clay Mathematics Institute as well, you’re likely eligible for a free $1 Million.

    How do I apply for this job to determine who is an artist and who isn’t? I have years of experience. 🤵‍♂️

    People in this thread really pretending they have kids in order to get upset about implied nudity. It does not get more american does it? Some chick showing lots of boobie sure seems to be the same like a girl getting banged by big dick to many here.

    Also if you actually think that some nudity will wreck your kid but watching gta does not i am not sure why anyone bothers arguing with you.

        It’s funny to be when the moral compass types let their misogyny show so clearly. Like you’re not going to even try to hide that while trying to claim the moral high ground?

        Yes there are bad sexy streamers there are also good sexy streamers, but you can’t even imagine that a sexy girl could also be intelligent, funny, and entertaining. Compared to the dudebro react streamers and souless gameplay streams you normally have to wade through they’re a much higher class of entertainment, at least they’re making their own content and showing some personality.

    Just become a soft-core porn site at this point, Twitch.

    🤔 In away they did that already with the new rules.

      It’s hard to do that officially when a big chunk of users are minors. Neither Twitch nor the streamers of this content want to admit that they make money serving softcore porn to kids. Cause that’d be weird.

    The only thing that really bothers me is that the porn get shoved on the front page.

    I wanna open Twitch on my living room TV to watch SC2 and tiveux something is painting her tits on my screen already.

        Just stop watching shit using twitch streams like a 10yo because it’s trash software and always has been.

        FTFY

          It works fine for me, but I mostly watch one streamer who only streams on Twitch. My ad blocker blocks their stupid ads on stuff I periodically check out that I’m not subbed to (e.g. MP events hosted by someone else), so it’s generally a good experience.

          However, the front page is absolute cancer, and it’s why I don’t watch many other streams. I just want my steamer and related content, and a few random favorited streamers from other games I very occasionally watch. I feel a little bad about the ad blocker, but that’s because there’s no in-between AFAIK where I can sub to 1-2 channels and still get no ads on the very rare occasions I’ll watch something else (less than once/month).

            I do this with 1 streamer, too. I sub with prime though.

            Ive seen the odd stream of a related streamer but normally just catch vods on youtube for anyone related.

            Who is your one streamer out of interest?

    I’m surprised how much pearl clutching there is in this thread. This seems like a good thing. It’s all supposed to be clearly labeled, and if people want to watch streams with nudity, what’s wrong with that?

      The twitch boob meta always fascinated me. It’s literally trivial to not watch thirst streams if you don’t like thirst streams. But people on the internet get so fucking upset about it, and I assume at least 100% of them consume actual porn.
