Uh, coffee stain must need money or why do we have to watch commercials lately? One follower less. Oh, search you go. Uh, but even if we, I wish we could turn them off. Problem is pushing it into everybody whether you are affiliate or partner or free. We cannot do anything about it. Yeah, these streams are not monetized. Neither is YouTube. Uh, which also, by the way, sorry I&#39;m cutting you in there again. I&#39;m cutting you in. You&#39;re good. We we should have said when you said monetize, I realized that, we forgot to mention last week just offhand that, people people have been saying on Reddit lately that, how do we give them more money? How do you support them and people are answering just buy merch like buy Dave&#39;s merch? We don&#39;t actually get a single dime of that either. We only partner with Dave because we think the stuff he makes is hella cool. So, the stuff on lizardog.com with exclamation mark merch or the stuff in the big box, the Kickstarter, which is hopefully launching very soon with Exclam Box. All of that is just, you know, because we again like what he does and we think it&#39;s cool to see the game come to life this way. We don&#39;t actually earn a dime that way either. So, sorry if you try to support us that way. We&#39;re not getting that money. There.
