#MIKUEXPO2024 SYD was absolutely unforgettable!! 🩵✨ Vocaloids aren’t just digital pop stars – they’re the perfect example of how media, technology, and fan culture merge to redefine entertainment and virtual artistry.

Research-related yappery aside, tonight was pure healing for my inner child. 🥺💗

Is the government about to accidentally ban kids under 16 from games? I wrote a piece with @darthtayrah.bsky.social on why they shouldn't.

(they also shouldn't ban social media!)
Online games should not be included in Australia’s social media ban – they are critical for kids’ social lives
Australia is set to ban kids under 16 from social media. Depending on the definition, online games with social features could be in the firing line – which would be detrimental.
