Because Whignats are #canceled in 2019

"In this video, Dave Rubin and I focus on four issues:

(1) our departure from Patreon (as of Jan 15, 2019);
**(2) plans to create an alternative creator-funding platform, with multiple payment options, and with protection for free speech foremost and center as a guiding principle;**
(3) the exceptional danger posed by the increasing willingness of payment processors such as MasterCard, Visa and PayPal to monitor, judge and regulate the spending habits of their customers;
(4) the pressure being applied to such companies by organizations designed precisely for that purpose (such as “Change the Terms (https://www.changetheterms.org/), aimed at the elimination of what they regard as “hate speech” online and everywhere else). "

2019-01-01 23:29:00 UTC  

2019 could be the year free speech fights back.

I wish them the best, but the pessimist in me doubts that we'll see a fix that doesn't involve legislation.

2019-01-01 23:34:51 UTC  

Indeed, but this could keep the 1st Amendment in the conversation long enough for the right people to hear.

2019-01-01 23:35:22 UTC  

win win

@Hakujin - CA France my dude

2019-01-01 23:36:01 UTC  

I plan to take her to see Paris

2019-01-01 23:43:18 UTC  

New Murdoch Murdoch!

2019-01-02 00:04:34 UTC  

hows everyone doing tonight ?

2019-01-02 00:06:43 UTC  

Re: Patrick's new year's suggestions ... I am getting married in a few months 😃 the closer the date gets, the more I realize I'm kind of intimidated about whether I can do a good job at it... Wondered if any married people have advice.

2019-01-02 00:07:03 UTC  

After seeing the tweets about NYE TV shows last night and the disgusting stuff they did, I'm really glad I no longer watch any television nor allow my kids to do so. Absolutely gross conversations and totally inappropriate.

2019-01-02 00:08:44 UTC  

@apronandlace It's like a title, if you already treat him right, and he treats you right before getting married, then you guys should be fine*

2019-01-02 00:08:52 UTC  

I'm a girl

2019-01-02 00:09:30 UTC  

thanks for the reassurance!

2019-01-02 00:09:30 UTC  

good recovery @The Eternal Anglo 😂

2019-01-02 00:10:22 UTC  

@apronandlace Marriage is a life long learning experience. Look at the relationship as iron sharpens iron. Make one another better and challenge each other to greatness. You’ll be fine 😃

2019-01-02 00:12:43 UTC  

@apronandlace we do have a #relationships channel in the skills server

2019-01-02 00:12:59 UTC  

@ThisIsChris thanks!

2019-01-02 00:13:02 UTC  

@apronandlace My mistake, congratulations by the way!

I personally recommend premarital counseling regardless, as it always is good to already know helpful preventives and things to do before they happen. How to deal with certain situations, etc.

2019-01-02 00:14:26 UTC  

Over all though it is fantastic, and you two should be grand @apronandlace 💪 👍

2019-01-02 00:15:19 UTC  

Yes for Catholics at least it's required to do a premarital prep course before they'll marry you

2019-01-02 00:16:24 UTC  

Is there a financial planning/tax advice section in the skills server? I’m working on my wife and I’s budget for 2019 and work as a CPA, would be happy to offer some tax planning help, can probably save some folks some money in taxes

2019-01-02 00:16:33 UTC  

The one I took was surprisingly long, once a week for about 4 months plus a fieldtrip

2019-01-02 00:16:41 UTC  

@Rick Flair yes there is

2019-01-02 00:16:45 UTC  

tax planning would be awesome

2019-01-02 00:17:23 UTC  

check #noncrypto-finance

2019-01-02 00:17:47 UTC  

4-6 mos is typical

2019-01-02 00:17:51 UTC  
2019-01-02 00:18:09 UTC  

@Rick Flair do you take clients from out of state?

2019-01-02 00:19:25 UTC  

I don’t make a living in financial planning, I work in oil and gas, but I do have a bit of knowledge based on my background and my own planning, would be happy to give out some basic things I do for minimizing taxes and cashflow management

2019-01-02 00:20:36 UTC  

@Papa Pizzagate I'm glad to hear that. Yeah 4 months is what I remember from a few years ago, could be longer. Basically like a college semester.

2019-01-02 00:21:44 UTC  

Thanks Chris, I don’t see that server on my list, do I need to reach out to anyone specifically?

2019-01-02 00:22:05 UTC  

@Rick Flair me, I'll DM you

2019-01-02 00:24:36 UTC  

Done.
If any IE-ers are reading this later and are looking for an invite just DM me whenever. Unless I'm sleeping I usually respond within a few minutes.

2019-01-02 00:26:20 UTC  

<#401064276967817216> has a big list of all our servers for anyone who wants to cross reference what they have

thought this was a nice quote from a review of Jim Goad's Whiteness: The Original Sin: "As I'€™ve said many times but will keep saying until it seeps into everyone’s impossibly thick skulls, the most powerful political weapon is guilt. It can disable entire populations without a single shot being fired. Apparently those who are constantly injecting the collective white unconscious with guilt serum are deathly afraid of what white people could accomplish if they were to toss their “€œinvisible knapsacks”€ of imaginary guilt into the nearest river." https://www.takimag.com/article/whiteness_the_original_sin_jim_goad/2/
