Yeah but Blue Apron has sponsored the last 3 Rocket podcasts (as found out by @Kiras left nipple) that Wu is part of. It's a bit of a roundabout thing, but I'm pretty sure all the podcasts are Wu's creations.

https://www.relay.fm/rocket/70
https://www.relay.fm/rocket/71
https://www.relay.fm/rocket/72

That's three weeks that Blue Apron has sponsored the podcast and about the same time that Wu has been obviously and aggressively shilling for them.

The link on the pages is a sponsored link too.

It all adds up...

Counter-point: he married Flynt. There are other better-looking (or even just passing) trans out there, he cucked himself to one that's ugly, annoying, and an utter failure at anything she tried all at once.

I always felt that WU hoped that a large company like ubisoft would pick up the rev 60 ip and develop it, with WU being a consultant/ creative genius..

except we live in a world of reality, and cutting your wang off , pretending to be a fem gamerz gurlz and lens flare the living shit out of anything that moves probably isnt worth investing in...

Not to mention that Rev 60 itself is terrible. It could have came from any other respected designer and it would still be shit on by AAA companies.
 
Gosh, you'd think Brianna, who has tons of experience with journalism, would give a disclosure that Blue Apron sponsors her any time she shills them on Twitter. She must've forgotten. Anyone care to remind her?

Not sure if it came up, but they seem to have an affiliate program for social influencers:

Re: Blue Apron shilling, Wu is not a bad candidate for this kind of shilling at all. At its core it's a numbers game and Wu does in all likelihood have numbers even if those numbers are misleading.

50k-ish followers is a non-trivial amount of people (though nothing compared to the giants of the professional whinging industry) and given the only hard metric I'm seeing for applying is "100k visits a month" he can probably just show them that his twitter analytics for "impressions" are well over 100k a month and be home free. Getting that kind of viewership is trivial with a fraction of that many followers because it's just "views of your tweets" so far as I can determine based on looking over the shoulder of people I know who take twitter seriously. He's got tons of zombies but probably a bunch of those are still giving "impressions" even if there's no interaction with Wu proper.

Having Wu as an affiliate is probably a trivial strain on their bottom line* (a few boxes of food which don't cost much to put together, and $15 USD for every sub Wu sends their way however that is determined), so even small, probably even fractional, percentage conversion rate makes it worth it in theory with followers in the 5 digits and "impressions" probably in the millions. Also of note is that the "$15 for every sub we get through you" perk seems like it's specifically designed to try to ensure that lackluster affiliates with lots of views but little conversion don't become financial boat-anchors around their proverbial necks, so the fact that Wu gets very little meaningful interaction is probably less of an issue to them that one might think.

As for his reputation...as was already mentioned, plausible deniability makes it all okay in the event of an epithet laden public chimpout that ends up on the front page of buzzfeed. One could get burned if Wu then decided to release emails or something like that after one denied being affiliated with Wu, but that probably would just mean that Wu would be blackballed for a very long time by any other such affiliate programs.

Yes, but there must also be another deal. Wu is neither referring in her Tweets to Blue Apron via referrer-ID nor is she pointing out that they are the sponsor of one of the podcasts she is appearing in. Which means that she isn't generating a single subscription from her tweets.
