Do streamers just not have anything going on inside their skulls?

all that goes through their head is about making content

This isn't a streamer thing specifically, that just makes it visible, including the thought process. This is just carbrain. Why do you think so many people run red lights?
- Cars are inherently dangerous.
  You're right in that this is framed in a way that puts the responsibility on the individual (not defending her and saying what she did was fine) rather than the poorly designed method of transportation.

  I know you're not defending her but whose else would it be? This isn't somebody making a mistake because none of us are infallible and being forced to drive cars, this is a clearly stated, willfull action.
- People routinely run stop lights and cruise right through stop signs in California, almost to the point where they're just mere suggestions for maybe slowing down a bit unless you have to stop for cross traffic.
  
  I've been in neighborhoods in California that have zero signage at 4 way intersections where any where else I'd expect them to be 4 way stops. or at the very least 2 way stops.
  It's wild to me that it's just kept a free for all.
  
  yup they call this a California stop

Imagine filming yourself breaking the law.
Imagine filming yourself breaking the law that's not even cool like Palestine Action breaking into drone factories to smash drones used by the Zionist entity to kill Palestinians but something like running a red which just makes you look like a complete dipshit.

Who watches this shit? Why is our culture like this?
- Alienation and atomization leads to people seeking out parasocial relationships.
  
  alienation and atomization sound like dope ass scifi things until you figure out what they are
- I still can't understand why people watch "reality" TV. I can go out in public and hear dumb people say dumb shit without having to watch advertisements
  
  They trashiness is the appeal. People can watch it and assure themselves of how much of a better person they are than the people on the show
  I realized this when I found out the main viewer demographics for these shows aren’t the type of people depicted, lower class and uneducated. It’s actually middle class, college educated people who make up the disproportionate bulk of the viewership.
  The entertainment is predicated on a classist schadenfreude. The guilty pleasure isn't "I enjoy trashy stuff" it's "I am better than this trash".
- It's tolerable (depending on the streamer) when it's just 10-30 second Tik Tok highlights, maybe even a 20 min Youtube vlog......but hours long streams? Goddamn what a waste of time

Carbrain shit. Every driver is entitled to totally unobstructed roads to and from their destination at zero cost to themselves.

Streaming while driving is bad enough.
- fucking mythbusters showed quite clearly in an idiot-digestible way that trying to drive and talk at the same time is a bad fucking idea, unless you either dont care how you drive or dont really care what you're saying. how. how. you're in a 2ton piece of steel hurtling down the scenery, jesus christ.
  
  unless you either dont care how you drive
  Hey bud, you seated? I have some bad news.
  how. how. you're in a 2ton piece of steel hurtling down the scenery, jesus christ.
  It's never the drivers fault to people with carbrain. It is this line of thinking, for everything, at all times. . It's not my fault for driving straight at the child sized, massive concrete divider, it's the concrete dividers fault for being there. Also the bicycles, despite there being no bicycle infrastructure present

I have driven in cities with such poorly timed lights that it almost encourages you to run a red, but to do it so cavalierly and streaming yourself doing it is just so dangerous and stupid.
- Maybe the red lights where she is are just so poorly timed that she is encouraged to run a red?
  
  It's possible. If you're going to run a red, do it safely and not on camera.

Unexpected mini struggle session about running red lights being praxis
- Very expected struggle session if you've ever been in contact with carbrained people
  
  they have no limits. they won't be happy until the entire world is a paved over freeway with no rules
- Muh flow of traffic! If everyone is driving dangerously then I'm in danger if I don't!
  Fucking Fury Road logic
  
  And yet I'm the one everyone looks at funny for huffing spray paint while I drive
- Only if you're doing it in a bike

Every time I see someone drive through a red light I honestly hope they meet an ugly fate by a similarly shitty driver before a random pedestrian gets turned into paste. And I don't mean like a short yellow light, of course. Some folks just hate following the most basic of rules when using a vehicle that should be treated more as a privilege than a requirement.

Semi-serious question, do they actually test people anymore to get a license?
- Yeah but that doesn't mean much. In high school I knew a kid who failed his written portion of the driving test the first time. When I asked him how he said he got really hung up on one question. The question was "what do you do when you drive by the exit you needed to take on the freeway." This is multiple choice and he chose "pull into the shoulder to back up down the freeway to get back to the exit".
  He didn't understand why that was the wrong answer and was sure the test was wrong. So he figured he'd just answer the way the test wanted to next time even though he knows he'd just back up down the shoulder. And that's exactly what he did a few weeks later, apparently, because he proudly showed off his license after finally getting it.
  So he's still out there driving around as far as I know. I definitely didn't keep in contact with him for hopefully obvious reasons so maybe he drove off a bridge or something already idk
  
  I'd like to mention here Germany, where I live, has rather more stringend theoretical and practical driving exams and it also doesn't matter because the common consensus for most of the rules here is that you only have to know them for the theoretical test, follow them for the practical driving exam and then who cares there's basically 0 traffic enforcement, it's all a great big ploy against the average man and even if you do get caught the punishment is a pittance anyways. You can tell the judge you hallucinated the light being green and kill a child and not even lose your drivers license over that.
- Yes

Stream of unconsciousness?

She went to Yale, why do I know this
- Columbia, but yeah. Also I blame the pandemic for me injecting Twitch directly into my brain for a few years

why didn't this moron get hit by a bus going 60mph instead of Virginia Giuffre
- this person didn't have dirt on people in power

Getting turned into paste and then immortalized into a twitch emoji

Influencers in general, yes.

gets second twitch ban
I dont go on twitch so i dont k ow any better but are twitch bans temporary? Or did this person get something permanent overturned or smth?
- they have temporary and permanent bans, yeah. also it's only their word/tos that governs it, not some law so they can cave at any time.
  i think asmongold got like a week ban for him going full-fascist?
  
  Oh. So mostly jhst performative.
- Even when the ban is permanent, big streamers usually get unbanned in a few days at most.

I remember seeing this person on /publicfreakout/ or some other reddit video board. Her and her buddy streamed some performative charity to an IHOP waitress. Like, they just decided to randomly give this person 10k while live on stream and then this act somehow ended up being spread across the internet.
Seemed really transparent even if the deed was a good one. Like, they knew lame dudes would probably donate tons more money to them (for doing nothing) because of all the extra publicity. Left a bad impression.

ACAB means red lights too
- You jest but the issue of traffic policing does feel like something one would have to exempt from the general ACAB approach
  
  If done right I’d agree. obviously now it’s used as a tool to terrorize minorities, but I do wish we’d take traffic safety more seriously. Seeing people consistently speed down pedestrian heavy areas 20 over is insane.
  
  Where do cops actually do traffic enforcement in a working sense? Everywhere I'm aware of, excluding very locally contained oddities, they're either also all hugely carbrained and don't give a shit except for sitting at badly designed traffic spots to fish for tickets or traffic enforcement barring high speed chases and openly taunting them is primarily in the jurisdiction of some sort of boring unarmed municipal department and as such they see this as beneath them.

That's sooo extra

Pig people with pig culture doing their abnormal stunts as usual. Some day these moron streamers will literally live stream their death if there hasn't been one already.
