i use my 27 inch monitor as a shield while using my logitech joystick as a cudgel. if needed, i use my steam deck as a throwing weapon and short the battery of my Vape to use it as a fragmentation grenade.

THEY are your twitch chat. youve been streaming to 0 people just waiting for 1 measely viewer. finally you get raided. you try to be open, but your hiding your authenticity behind your monitor. you start to get nervous as more viewers stream in. not knowing what to do you turn to gimmicks and try playing kingdom come 2 with a joystick. the chat is hype training. but its not enough for you. you decide youll make a clip that you can make a short from as marketing for future streams. you pretend to get angry and throw your steamdeck across the room hitting your vape that explodes. the clip is epic, but a twitch mod gets jelly of your success and bans your account. the chat is dead, your career as a streamer is dead. but at least your not vaping anymore.
