alternatively, if we're feeling more especially actual-litetary, the place is a metaphorical AND literal "hope spot" :p

thanks. keep up the good work.

i now retreat back to the jozone layer.

@danshive.bsky.social you didn't ask, and normally i wouldn't be so bold as to abruptly up and answer either, but remark about alliteration got me thinking.

"the hope zone," for assonance instead. (also sounds like a video game or sci-fi thing, which feels more her personal vibe than the old ways)

OK,I did have ONE last image prepared. "Just in case"... staying just a bit ahead of the engagement, unlike what happened to the early tiers when I was caught off guard.

You can have it, as a big ol' THANK YOU SO MUCH for supporting me in this goofy endeavor. I'll make sure to try again sometime~<3

(and REMEMBER, I'll still be WATCHING YOU... and this thread... probably not respectfully, either... so... just beware my random flights of fanciful nonsense and all that.

you've been warned! don't trust a single thing I do! or don't do! or say! or don't say! ever! ;3)

That's it! We got a lot further than I imagined! I'm super proud of all the social media outlets for showing me that even my most deliberately restrained expectations deserve to be upset in the best possible ways now and again.

I had a lot of fun!

...even if twit-x lost its marbles the other day.

All was not lost! The slightly-harder-to-tabulate YouTube counts went up and saved our streak!

Well, that was fun and festive, but I really don't know if we can manage to pad our counts much fur--

W-Wait... there's been a typo in the goals list this whole time? Th-That means... we... umm...!

We made it through stage 3! Only time will tell if we can reach further than that so the Queen can spread even more festive cheer!

I'll be sure to check all the platforms for some extra engagement scores to see if we'll make more merriment going forward! ;3

My fingers might be slow, but someone festive has clearly lit a fire under them, as we begin to heat up... and catch up to the promised rewards already earned.

Somehow, it turns out that I'm slower at drawing than people are at clicking. (Shocking!) Whoever you all are. ;3

I've got two whole tiers to catch up on before we're fully up to date, it seems.

So far, more engagement from here than twitter, threads, OR youtube, interestingly!

Also super questionably decided to get video evidence of my foolishness wrapped up into all this. Fun with popcorn, I'm sure? ;3

So, as with the last time I posted in--HOW LONG AGO?!

...yep, still have no idea how to social media. Responsibly or otherwise.

Therefore, what's the WORST that could happen if I go and (ab)use social media even MORE irresponsibly?! ;3

The important thing is that I'm having fun...? ("important")

[Giveaway] To celebrate the Nintendo Switch 2 launch, we're doing our biggest social media giveaway in our 17+ year history. Repost and follow for a chance to win a console bundle with Mario Kart World. Ends June 1, 2025, open worldwide.

i apparently have no idea how to social media properly.

... ... ...

so anyway, happy late holiday of your choosing! :P

Maybe. I'm more thinking about the stuff I would want to post and how I want to do it.

Maybe my art stuff... gonna rethink how I do stream and upload posts, I think.

And then just generally trying a different thing from how I treated the old platform, since it wasn't a great experience overall...

...this came way more true than I was prepared for.

Image attachments override the previously automatically-detected YouTube embed. Neat! (Science!) ((Bad touch!))

First "real" post on this platform! Let's set a good tone! Make a good impression! Um... what've I been up to most recently?

... ... ...

...n... nothin' much... just... thinkin' 'bout... fighting games?

(testing complex embed situations and trying to break the platform?)

I do indeed. Um. Have. Lots... of... uh... ... ..."reference material"... huh?

...should probably start migrating most of whatever I use that dead bird with the x'ed out eyes over here, I suppose.

Feels immensely more pleasant to just. See post. Read. Interact. (If I ever did THAT.) Not feel sick.

i didn't lose it, she lost it! i FOUND it.

i'm keeping this.

we get along "fine"... but you try being "roommates" with a petulant child thousands of years too young to-- wait, what are you writing with MY thumbs?! sorry you're stuck hitching a free ride on my life, grandm-- we just need a shared problem to focus on-- like MY social media?!
