to be fair i'm still young and i have my license, but driving gives me such terrible anxiety that i feel like death whenever i'm forced to, and thus don't drive often

Face your fears, live your dreams. I live in a city where everyone just moved from China and India and it's terrifying to drive but you just do it and stop being a millennial pussy.

I mean, I got in a horrible four car accident here and I still drive over it every day. Just do it:

you know how much some of these streamers make? they're like 20 and i doubt they care where their money is going to come from in 5 years when it's rolling in now

the companies making these games are the same way, and already know they have a limited time frame, so they're trying to make as much money as they can before it collapses

i know people who have spent literally thousands of dollars on league of legends, a free game; a non-free game, meanwhile, earns its company a single upfront amount per purchase and nothing after that unless they can merchandise

ya my bro in law works at twitch, check out some of these stats

dont get me wrong i know theres money to be made in games and streaming, but it's not as the "talent", at least not on a risk adjusted basis especially when you take into account 10 years of playing video games in your PJs at home would make you radioactive even to Walmart

I mean, PewdiePie bought some sort of tropical paradise house just with the ad revenue he gets off his lovely let's plays. There's definately at least some money to be made, it is just extremely inconsistent and not viable long-term

Thisssss. My boomer bosses think I'm some kind of magical computer elf, which rules and is job security. I know plenty of people in my own generation who are like absolutely terrified of approaching technology outside of the marketed user scenario, though. I know a guy who does twitch streaming professionally, and depends on his mostly after-market PC to do his work. If his computer breaks down, though, he is like a lost child. He needs help with basic tasks like replacing the RAM cards or installing a new hard drive, and isn't really interested in learning how to do it himself. Tons of people my age use me as a tech support drone for issues that have me literally saying out loud, "Let me google that for you."

Anyway, the short version is that our generation has just as many people that are afraid of technology and have no intellectual curiosity as the previous one, it's just funnier because we are all glorious future people with smartphones and 24/7 social media.

I am certain you are hosed in the head, and the doctor will uncover all that poo poo.
