Hello. I had an account on that other site that got permanently banned like a week after the buyout and have just been offline since basically. I also decided to do a total rebrand of all my websites and ditch the name I used on that site because stalkers got real bad.

And speaking of videos on games, damn it, this happened again.
My whole setup for these is just to hit the stream button, edit down the individual games via twitch's UI, and directly shuffle stuff over to youtube from there (because my computer can't really handle video editing) so I can't fix this

Pro Tip: When you're incredibly frustrated by politics but it's the middle of the night so you can't organize a march or blow up lawmakers' phones, it is more healthy to get off social media and watch a movie or play a game or otherwise just do something to try and improve your mood rather than stew

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.
