• “RULE 2: Do not donate any money to b**by streamers, TikTok dancers, E-girls, etc. This is one of the purest forms of simping, you are submitting and surrendering your financial power for a fleeting moment of lust, you could use this money that you spent precious time for, on something that will prove to be wholesome, and last long.”
