Discord’s CEO is on twitter hinting about their apparent future involvement with NFTs/crypto.
In case you aren’t already aware, cryptocurrency is digital currency that sucks because it consumes an absurd amount of energy and computer parts, and NFTs are a way of creating false scarcity for digital items, which are bought and sold with crypto currency, and also suck. Here is an article about why that shit sucks. The article has additional information. Here is a twitter account that also documents NFT thefts & scams (NFTs are often stolen art sold without permission).
HERE IS WHAT YOU SHOULD DO ASAP:
1. CANCEL NITRO. Don’t wait around for them to reverse course or apologize. Cancel it now, choose “other” when it asks why you’re canceling and write in your answer. They need to see the financial backlash right now. You can always re-sub if they backpedal, but right now they need the impetus to do the backpedaling.
2. GO HERE to their feedback forum. make a thread and tell them you cancelled nitro and don’t want them involved with crypto garbage. contribute to other threads if you see one that piques your interest. EXTRA CREDIT: downvote this thread, boo them, downvote the crypto dingdongs in the comments.
3. If you have twitter, tweet at them. tweet at @discord and reply to Jason’s tweet with whatever dunking and booing you feel like.
4. PASS IT AROUND. Tell your friends with nitro. Tell your favorite group chats and servers. Encourage them to do the same.
This is one of those situations where we need massive and decisive backlash RIGHT NOW to nip it in the bud. Your input really does matter right now. Shouting down shit like this has gotten even companies like Patreon to reverse course on bad decisions. Even the stupidest tech bros do respond to enough screaming. So SCREAM. Remind them where their real money comes from, and scare them away from the planet-destroying fake money.

AND NOBODY COULD STOP HIM.
hi so @beabigshot’s idea of addisons being able to purr since they’re computery and computer fans purr has been in my head for weeks it’s just so good,,,
this is an au or something for if spamton didn’t turn into his glasses after the fight and the addisons took him back in and gave him a place to stay, he gets stressed and freaked out because he saw that he can’t survive without strings anymore so they have to calm him down sometimes, the purring definitely helps. poor spammy hasn’t felt the touch of a person since 1997
oh, you're invincible, you say? *easily vinces you*
Banner! Do you have any good recommendations for some small people. Very short people
"A booster seat?" The voice on the line snickers, clearly pleased by their own joke- much less so by the figure with them, as a bit of a fight breaks out from the speaker.
Many things seem to be tossed around. Something collides with something else- fragile, probably, guessing by the crash. There's quite a bit of bickering, before the line is picked up again.
"Sorry! So- so sorry, sorry," Banner gasps, forcing a stained smile from behind the phone. "That was a joke. A joke. If you're looking for down-sized apparel, I could introduce you to our infant's selection-"
There's a loud resounding crash, and a yelp from the speakers. Oh dear, The line is quickly cut.

I think some of you take the phrase “its not true friendship unless you bully each other” and take it as “oh so if I make fun of people then they will become my friend!!”
No. the phrase means that you trust each other and know each other well enough to tease one another while knowing exactly what the other person’s boundaries are.
This does not mean leaving unnecessarily rude comments/tags on random ppl’s posts thinking that it’s just friendly ribbing when you are not, in fact, friends with that person. And guess what?? Now that person is even less likely to be your friend.
