Norm Macdonald's classic Bob Dylan story in honor of Dylan's 81st birthday
I had always assumed this story was just a joke but in Conan's tribute podcast to Norm one of his friends mentioned the story under the assumption that Norm had never publicly talked about it
This is the most insane Twitter thread I have ever read. Legit insane.
The dude seriously went from bragging about getting kicked out of cheesecake factories for sexual harassment to disclosing that he traveled across the world to get rejected by Kevin Spacey in an effort to prove that his brother was lying about being molested.
I just discovered another Ben Dreyfuss thread and it's all starting to come together.
We now know that streamers like @Trainwreckstv and @adinross are getting paid over a MILLION dollars a month by gambling sites to promote gambling to their audiences (which are full of young kids).
This—rather than ASMR and hot tub streams—is what people should be outraged about
Gambling sites pay streamers so much bc they get huge returns on their investment. These huge returns come from viewers of the streamers, who often develop life-ruining addictions.
Thus, for the sake of its users, @TwitchSupport should ban all gambling content from its platform.
In these leaked dm's, we can see that @adinross is getting at *at least* $1.6 million a month.
That means his young audience is probably losing millions of dollars a month on the site he promotes, and are developing addictions that could last a lifetime.
