The power one person can hold in a small town is why we need exceptional journalism, and this is /exceptional/ journalism.

A story of cowardice and bravery and greed and fucked up systems.

Your Christmas presents this year from me is a large donation to propublica.

As a newcomer to your community, you've already become one of my favorite streamers. Your content and personality are really entertaining and funny, and I look forward to what you've got planned for the rest of this year and the next!

I'm writing this here to hold myself accountable. With next year coming up I want to make sure I give my content my all. I think I have good ideas and make fun content. It truly is my dream to be able to do this fulltime and I am tired of being scared of failure. I'm not letting it stop me anymore.

On the other hand, trying to talk sense into people who hate me for existing gets old pretty fast. Especially when the voices who radicalized them in the first place ARE using insults to successfully build their following. The whole "reaching across the aisle" thing hasn't really panned out so far.

That's our brand of American culture. Worst case scenario (seems to be our scenario): religions/cults-of-personality tell people they are generally "good", that absolve us of understanding the difference between right and wrong; and we shirk the work of actually DOING good.
