Sadly we did not meet our goal, before the STAFF #charity event ended. I will keep the tiltify campaign open, & redeeming punishments from donos, til Nov 30 in the hopes of getting through the remaining Fiery 5 beans!

(I don't want to just toss them, but they're too damn hot to enjoy casually🥵)

And with that today's stream, & the STAFF Event, has come to an end. Shadows Over Cyberspace was pretty fun, I think I'll come back to finish Aza's story soon~

We raided over to @lolotovcocktail.bsky.social and @aridreamgoat.bsky.social enjoying some Darktide, to enjoy alongside some pizza dinner✨

Barring a massive influx of donos, this looks like the final day of the STAFF event- but the campaign will keep going until the end of November!

So for today... let us focus on Shadow Over Cyberspace, and more specifically, helping Azathoth as best we can & go out with a BANG💖💫

Day 5 for the #GATESTAFF #charity event- today is The Shadow Over Cyberspace, starting in an hour @ 3pm CST💖💫

It's eve of 1999; one month between us, and the Y2K bug ruining all computers. Can we barter with Azathoth before the end, get a say in our new Ruler? Better to try than assume we can't.

The last boat struck by the U.S. military in the Caribbean Sea was Colombian with Colombian citizens inside, Colombian President Gustavo Petro said on Wednesday.

Not surprisingly, this means the pentagon has been lying about the intelligence they use for these attacks. It seems they are just targeting boats.

There's a word for blowing people up without giving them a semblance of due process, and it's "murder."

Link is seen twirling and looking very happy in Zelda's dress.
Zelda comes in and says "Hey link I'm back" she continues in and says "So how was your da-" Zelda drops her purse and notices that Link is wearing her dress and is shocked. Link looks incredibly embarrassed and a bit nervous.

Link now in a new outfit and makeup is getting teary eyed with a smile as Zelda says "You should have just told me that you wanted to look pretty! This suits you much better! You look gorgeous!"
Zelda looks happily at Link while holding a makeup brush.

Stream over- me and my new Undying Wife have escaped the Narrator, at the cost of my stummy being upset from SO many spicy beans🥵

We raided @doomvega.art for some chill Tomodachi life- he's looking to start streaming more, and I heartily recommend him if you want chill, cozy vibes~

Day 4 begins... our main obstacle will be our own sense of self control, our goal is full bodily autonomy. Will 5 hours be enough to reach it, I wonder?

Day 3 for the #GATESTAFF #charity event- today is Slay the Princess: the Pristine Cut, starting at 3pm CST💖💫

It will be a fight for control, for self-determination, in a world saying 'it's too late', 'there's no other way'- there's always another way, for those willing to work for it! ✨

I... didn't think someone would take me up on this, but a dono is a dono 🥵

I'll be streaming #GATESTAFF day 4 in about 2 hours, so you can catch this punishment (and more!) then, while I go buy some more milk now~

STOP GATEKEEPING PROTEST

the same people screaming “do something!” also screaming “not like that!”

Y’all are shooting yourselves in the foot.

Someone in my mentions is upset because these people haven’t suffered the worst at ICE’s hands and therefore they shouldn’t be praised for being out on the streets?

Yeah, no. To push back on these people we need everyone — especially those with relative privilege — to get up and get involved.

Flip-flopping between That's Not My Neighbor & Munchkin, with a common theme of no-knock raids; a fear that no citizen should have, and yet is becoming far too common for the most vulnerable of us...
