Not gonna lie, I'm a huge fan of MMA, but my fandom is waning.

A few things which would make it more palatable:

THREAD
*More accountability from promotions*

Eg: UFC acknowledging they enjoy cronyism with a former member of a terrorist org, & stop making light of the fact they are happy to pump money behind domestic abusers.
*Better fighter's rights & pay*

Eg: Goes without saying, although fighters aren't blameless here. Lack of solidarity is contributing to the perpetual absence of both. Support the fight for a CBA. Support @ProjSpearhead.
@ProjSpearhead *Fighter safety over monetary gain*

Eg: Chuck Liddell fighting again is a travesty. Negligent stuff from CSAC. Sad to see a commission generally at the forefront of fighter safety being this irresponsible. Dismaying stuff. TBI & weight-cutting are huge issues.
@ProjSpearhead *Accountable journalism by large media*

Eg: More transparency, accountability & ethical reporting. Less transcribing podcasts. Stop clickbait. Stop PR schtick. & stop a certain 'award-winning *journalist*' being a sycophant & giving exposure & a platform to a habitual criminal.
@ProjSpearhead And it continues....

What were obstacles and traps when I started in astrophotography, or in general: "What should I pay attention to, when I begin in astrophotography?"
Well, first, a little advisory:
I really can tell what kind of problems you encounter when you begin because...
I'm still beginning 😬😬
So!
The first issue for me have been: I did not know my camera well and what it can do.
Almost any camera can do at least a nice astro landscape.
With the right settings, you could even capture the milky way with a high-end smartphone.

Okay, my notes on Weidman are a jumbled mess, but here's a short but sweet breakdown of Chris Weidman after watching his 7 fights in the post-Anderson Silva Era. #Weidman #UFC #UFC230 #mmatwitter (cont.)
Chris Weidman, first of all, has an amazing top game. It's active, and is equally a threat from both submissions and TKO. Most of his career he was very durable, and has quite good stamina. He is also a huge MW, only mirrored in size by Weidman. He would be an average LHW.
Given his past 7 fights: Lyoto had a good chance in rnds 4 and 5 to knock him out. I think if that same fight played out today, Lyoto would have knocked him out in rnd 4. His chin is not at all what it was. Next is the Vitor fight. Vitor flurried on him hard. Chris survived, and

People have been wanting info about my streaming setup, so here's a bit of information about it... It's nothing masterful, but I do what I can because I must. ;) (Somewhat long #thread) Obligatory stream link: twitch.tv/mattlewellyn #SupportSmallStreamers
First, my stream art. My art usually starts somehow based on a @streamlabs theme, even if only for inspiration or to make my custom CSS/JS a lot easier to wrangle. The text is usually done w/ custom browser sources. For more info on Streamlabs OBS visit streamlabs.com/slobs/d/103698…
For custom fonts, I override whatever font selection is made via custom CSS. I embed my fonts as base 64 in the CSS thanks to @FontSquirrel's webfont generator. Base 64 seems to perform the best for locally-hosted HTML files with inline CSS even. Probably because no caching.

How To Create (or Find) A Hot Product or Service and Make Millions Selling It

#Thread.
You want to make money with your proposed business?

Before you even think of an idea, there are things you must be mindful of.

1. Choose an industry or sector that you will enjoy, genuinely want to help in or wouldn't mind working in.
In order words, choose an industry that wouldn't make you want to put a gun in your mouth and blow your brains out.

An industry is just a collection of different pockets (markets) of people.
I was privileged to know the late Mr. Isaac Durojaiye, founder of DMT Mobile Toilets.

LIFE HAPPENS | “Sho, do you cook?”, my date asked. I replied jauntily, “I used to but not anymore. I now have access to a chef and can afford to order what I like eating.” #Thread #Life #Relationships
My date followed up by asking, “If your boyfriend asked you to cook for him, would you?” I grinned, as I realised my date was sadly playing from a script. I replied, “I don’t have a guy I like who’s asking me to cook, so I can’t say.”
I think my date thought I was being coy. But, I wasn’t. I was just being honest. A while ago, I decided to deal in reality and not hypotheticals. I have tried and failed to control life. All my effort got me was an anxiety problem and therapy.
