      he streamed today just a short one since he’s streaming basketball on someone elses account tn, I thought the same thing lol

      he talked about it and basically said it sucks and shat on the bad faith of the people and orgs pushing it, but said he’d abide by it and people in his chat using zionist as an insult were probably going to be logged and banned later by twitch

        That means we’re about to get 9/11 part deux

        Every time Hasan takes his shitty little vacations something crazy happened

        He was live for the Trump shooting

        Coincidence? Who can say
