Snoop Dogg's Muted Twitch Streams

Original story: Snoop Dogg's Twitch streams are somewhat of a fever dream. They never quite come together, though I suppose nobody expects the streams of a 49-year-old major stoner to be technologically flawless. But somehow, for some reason, the rapper has managed to completely mute himself and his game audio for the past six days—and appears to have no clue that he's done it. All of Snoop's last six streams have been dead silent, but that hasn't stopped between 5,000 and 48,000 people tuning in to watch him inaudibly play Madden while he has a few joints. People have tried to let him know that he's muted, but there's one small problem. Snoop's Twitch chat is emote-only, meaning that people who are trying to help him are having to cryptically convey the issue through a series of emojis, which somehow makes the entire thing even funnier.

The image shows an article describing Snoop Dogg streaming Madden on Twitch for six days with both his microphone and game audio muted. Viewers cannot type messages because the chat is emote-only, so they try to warn him using cryptic emoji combinations. The joke is that his technical problem continues unnoticed while thousands of people watch silently and struggle to communicate it.
