Co-purchased this Habibi with @spandya108 and @ayzwah! They were nice enough to let me be the one to use it for my profile pic :) Amazing work @MarkTheHabibi (and @ttdkwta for everything you do for the community)!

Did people treat me differently after I sold @Twitch? Absolutely. Here's what $970,000,000 taught me about life, fake friends, and making new ones:

Companies like Turing.com are the answer to idiotic immigration policies around the world. You do not need to come to USA, just work remotely. #Turing #TuringBoundarylessEvent
