Mamadi Doumbouya for The New York Times Talk The Queen of Twitch Wonders What Turns Teenage Fans Into TrollsImane Anys has experienced a turbocharged version of the ostensibly good and indisputably awful that can come with being a star in the world of online content creators. Honestly, there are people in the streaming industry who don’t find misogyny deplorable, who don’t think it’s a big deal, who don’t think deepfaking should be punishable in any way. For me, it’s been invaluable to have fellow female streamers who know what I’ve gone through, who can validate my feelings. If I have a particular interest in pottery, let me showcase that instead of just focusing on gaming and streaming. Being able to connect with other people who are interested in the same things as you is so validating.

REUTERS/Sarah Meyssonnier TPX IMAGES OF THE DAYPARIS, Jan 26 (Reuters) - Imane Ayissi wove African textiles into his haute couture collection shown in Paris on Thursday, mixing raffia-lined garments in bright colours with dresses coated in sequins or airy silk fringes. "This is a window to show techniques of African artisans," said Ayissi. The Cameroon-born designer, who is based in Paris, is currently featured in the Victoria & Albert Museum exhibit "Africa Fashion" in London. Haute couture fashion week in Paris, which wound up on Thursday, features some of the most prestigious fashion houses, including Christian Dior (DIOR.PA) and Chanel.

Twitch on Tuesday announced a ban on streaming unlicensed gambling sites, including slots, roulette and dice websites, starting next month. More websites may be banned at a later date, Twitch said in a statement posted to Twitter. A number of creators have been pushing Twitch to do something about online gambling streams, citing potential dangers to younger users. Twitch had already prohibited users from sharing links or referral codes to sites that include slots, roulette or dice games. A spokesperson for Twitch said the company has no further comment beyond the statement posted to Twitter.
