Did you know race horses share the same birthday?

NOTICE: Please Read. Thank you.

Community Update

I’m addressing what happened in chat today and setting boundaries going forward.

During today’s Youtube vertical stream, someone posted an inappropriate message written phonetically in a deceptive way. I read part of it aloud before realizing what they were attempting to do. The intent was to trick me into repeating something harmful without it being written clearly. I immediately shut the stream down and banned the user involved. Unfortunately, the damage was already done.

Separately, I was false-flagged on TikTok 10+ times for “unoriginal content.” Those reports were not related to the chat incident, but they clearly show how unsafe the platform has become for vtubers on the app. I have concerns it could have damaged my channel, so I will no longer be streaming there. It's gotten so hostile and volatile since the Streamer Awards last year.

As a result:
TikTok streaming now poses an ongoing risk to my channel.,
Holiday and bank-holiday streams attract a high number of minors, which has repeatedly led to inappropriate behavior.,

Effective immediately:
I will no longer stream on TikTok.,
I will not stream during bank holidays or major holiday periods.,
Moderation will be stricter, and bans will be immediate for inappropriate behavior.,

These changes are not up for debate. They exist to protect my community and I.

If you are here in good faith, thank you for understanding and respecting these boundaries.
