How Microsoft can run a monopolistic asset stripping M&A model at the same time as doing this. This is legit getting embarrassing. Greedy greedy greedy greedy greedy. Zero care for optics, and reeks of short term desperation long term fallout

As my generation ages, I’m sure we will see many more elderly female streamers in the friggin 2070’s or whatever but Shirley is so goated for being the blueprint for something that won’t be common for another 40-50 years. The internet is losing a real one!!! Respect on her name!!!
