Thanksgiving

We had thanksgiving today. My grandparents came over, my sister and her fiance and their kids came over, and I ate like an ENTIRE cheese ball.
Gotta flex on the haters by putting even MORE jalapenos on my jalapeno cheese ball cracker.
Man, little kids crack me up. They're amusing to no end. Just listening to the ridiculous stuff they say.
One of the girls tells me, "She beats me up!" The other girl goes "She bites me!" and the first girl goes, "I'm a vampire!" as if that explains it.
My sisters fiance also pours ketchup on mac and cheese. That should be a crime. That's the worst thing I've ever seen.
My grandpa also gave me a bunch of wheat pennies; I'm not sure where he got all of them, but, if you don't know what a wheat penny is, they were these pennies manufactured from like, 1909 to the 1950's. They're kind of rare compared to normal pennies, and I think they're cool looking, so I look for them in change when I have the chance.
My grandpa knew about this, and brought a TON of them over.


Anyways, I don't know where I'm going with this, we had thanksgiving, I had an ok time, got some wheat pennies and got hugged by little kids and my heart grew three sizes like the grinch.

Youtube to terminate "Non-Commercially Viable Channels"

So, on top of all the COPPA bullshit, youtube has also apparently announced that starting December 10th, they will be terminating non-commercially viable channels.
This means, you can NOT avoid the COPPA laws involving gathering data through ads, because if you DON'T monetize your videos, youtube will terminate your channel because you aren't making them money.
Welcome to capitalism.
Seriously, this is just fucking ridiculous at this point.
"If theres kids in your audience and you dont take away all features of your channel, we're fining you thousands of dollars!"
so you go, okay, well, I don't really want any money. Can't I just not monetize my channel?
and youtube goes, "No! If you're not making us money, fuck off!" and they delete everything you have that isn't commercially viable for them.
what the fucking hell? who's idea was this?
