Shoutout to the one youtube member on my channel that still pays every month despite the fact that I haven't uploaded a longform video since June.
You're a real one. I promise I'll make more content soon.

A stream schedule for the week of 2/23-3/1, styled after a punk show poster. Text to the side reads "12 HOUR SLEEP" Monday, 7:00 PM EST - Pokemon: Too Many Types 2 Wednesday, 7:00 PM EST - Art Time Friday OR Saturday, 7:00 PM EST - Hades II

I'm back on the grind because MY 4 YEAR STREAMAVERSARY IS NEXT WEEK! After I recover from this 12 hour sleep, at least...

Things are a tiny bit up in the air this week, but I'll keep y'all in the loop! Giving my all into making 3/4 an event worth being part of!

Hey guys, watch this!

I got to see my childhood best friend perform drag today, and it's so healing to see how happy he is these days.
Shoutout to trans drag performers, y'all rule.

My doctor just told me she's surprised I can still get out of bed given my blood test results and,,, hahahaha,,,

Call your house rep and tell them to support HB 2540 which will increase the amount disabled people can save from $2k to $10k and remove the marriage penalty where you lose your only source of income if you get married regardless of how little they make. Switchboard: (202) 224-3121

I'm going to get the merch store up and running again, even if I have to get a PO box out of town and ship things myself. I have a plan - an ambitious plan, but a plan nonetheless.
I'm really nervous, but even more excited. Stay tuned, folks!

The thought of an elementary schooler being so heavily exposed to ChatGPT that they trust it as an authority over Actual Legitimate Sources deeply scares me, and I worry for the consequences this will have on the mental health of younger folk and on our collective knowledge

Today I overheard a child say "ChatGPT it" instead of "Google it" and genuine fear was struck into me

Sorry for the short stream, folks!
All the technical difficulties soured by mood a bit, and I'm still feeling the fatigue of moshing so hard last night. I appreciate the hell out y'all.
Take care of yourselves, I'll be back on Saturday with a functional charger and more energy!

It took me a second to remember that Umamusume existed and I was about to respond rambling about all of the horse girl games I grew up on in the late 2000's

For the first time in my life, someplace feels like home 💚

A stream schedule for the week of 2/16-2/22, styled after a punk show poster. Text to the side reads "TAKING IT EASY" Monday, 7:00 PM EST - Shinies For Good Wednesday, 7:00 PM EST - Art Time Saturday, 7:00 PM EST - Hades II

Extremely delayed stream schedule, apologies folks!

I'll be taking it easy this week while I focus on getting things in order for my upcoming streamaversary - mark your calendars for March 4th - but I appreciate y'all and everything you do to the ends of the earth.

Be there or GET BIT!

I'll be back to my regular shenanigans soon. To those who came for the event, don't worry - punk, politics, and praxis are at the core of everything I do. And the Shinies For Good team has plenty of plans for the future, so stay tuned!
In the meantime - keep on loving. Keep on fighting. And hold on.

We won't change the world with charity alone, but as ICE continues to illegally arrest, detain, and kill immigrants every day, efforts like this are one part of the work of resisting fascism.
And in a time when I've doubted my ability to make a concrete difference, thank you for proving me wrong.

The response to this event has been mindblowing, and I genuinely could not be more proud. But I also want to express my thanks to every other creator and community who contributed to this effort, not just the ones listed here.

With the @shiniesforgood.bsky.social #ICEOut community fundraiser come to a close, I want to thank everyone for the love and support this past week. Together, we raised a total of $8,238.67 for the American Immigration Council, with $2,840.67 coming from our very own Ashen!

We have just under six hours left on our first drive, and we're under $2k away from our second goal of $8,192 raised for @immcouncil.org! Let's rally together to break that barrier and fund #ICEOut that much more!

Pitch in if you can! tilt.fyi/2HUfblT91q

The battle against age verification requirements and digital censorship is about more than just Discord. Bills like KOSA and the SCREEN still threaten to strip our privacy here in the US.

A free, private, and accessible Internet is still possible. But only if we fight for it.

Don't give up.

In the face of fascism, standing by our communities is key. Protect your neighbors. Tell your friends you love them. Organize, and have each other's backs.
They can't kill us all.
