    Honestly don’t care about Elon’s PoE 2 account. Nor do I care much about Asmongold as a person, I only have a single important question:

    What’s with gaming streamers/youtubers trying to look like Jesus? GN Steve gets a pass, he’s Tech Jesus and everyone knows it. What’s up with Asmongold and that Penguinz guy though?

      By “look like Jesus” do you mean they are white guys with long hair and facial hair?

      I think you might underestimate how easy it is to grow your hair out and stop shaving and instantly become a Jesus look-alike. No effort needed.

      Also, these two dudes look extremely different from each other and obviously they look nothing like Jesus who was a 5 and 1/2 ft tall brown skinned Semite.

        By “look like Jesus” I do indeed mean the popular modern western depiction of Jesus, because as far as I know, there’s no conclusive proof of a historical Jesus existing, and if he did, he was obviously not a modern European-origin American man.

        As for the second point - idk, it might just be because I can’t grow a decent full beard, but after the first centimeter or 2 of facial hair, I just get told to shave because it’s not funny anymore. I also can’t imagine letting my hair grow for several years to get it as long as those guys. I thought one of the perks of being a man is that you get to be comfortable instead of spending years growing out your hair and shit lol

          I go from Three musketeer to wizard of the Court in about 1 month. Generally I just prefer not to cut my hair, but it will reach full length in about 1 year and then just stop growing any longer.

          These guys seem like they also chose this hairstyle because it’s just less work and you spend less time being uncomfortable.

          Constantly shaving all the time sucks.
