        Just now catching onto that? Well let me make your day by saving you money with Honey!

        (Don’t actually download Honey. It’s just a tracking service)

          Its a tracking service that steals money intended for someone else. If you want to support your favourite youtuber and click on their affiliate link for a product you want to buy, honey swaps out the affiliate identifier with its own and then “shares” a fraction of what they steal with you. Honey is fucking cancer.

      The idiocy never ceases to amaze me. Just when I think I’ve seen it all, they find a new and ridiculous way to exhibit it.

        It’s happening in Australia now as well

        Pauline Hanson raised 2.5 million dollars from a lot of really stupid Australians yesterday. Apparently it’s legit as well, though we’ll wait and see.
