So did you know that I have a Throne wishlist? While I haven't had many people buy from it, that's likely because i haven't pushed it much. So here is my link if you are curious:

I won’t be able to make it this year (I start a new job today), but this is an amazing list for those going to twitch con!
TwitchCon PSA (a thread)! TC is a very fun event, but it does have some issues because of the possible parasocial problems that come with the streaming territory. Please keep the following points in mind! (This is more geared towards "viewers" but also fellow streamers.)

Sorry I haven't streamed for a bit. It's been way too hot here in Portland and my studio has yet to cool down properly (no AC in the room). I got a new fan with a thermastat and it is currently 81 degrees in the space. Streaming makes everything even hotter... so yeah. Hope to see you all soon!

When Michael Jordan felt boxed in by his success in basketball he tried baseball. When Gary Brooks became synonymous with country he created Chris Gaines. And when JK Rowling created the most successful kids books of all time she reinvented herself as a petty, weirdo transphobia influencer.

Ever wonder if the quality of cables makes a difference? Well I go into it all in my latest YouTube video: youtu.be/cn5TlDQGCQ8
Do Quality XLR Cables Even Matter?

I asked @creativeminds.bsky.social in 2024 about prices for a 5 song EP. My #twitch community funded half and my mom half. I've learned so much in this year of working with them. HUMIDITY. 8/15/25. distrokid.com/hyperfollow/... #music #indiemusic #lgbtqia #singersongwriter #newmusic #queermusic

I feel really bad for the kids of this generation. They won't know about the wonders of Winamp.

They'll never know how much it whips the llama's ass!

Supposedly conservatives are saying superman is woke like it's a bad thing because it's [looks at notes] pro immigrant 🤦‍♀️.

What's next? Wolfenstein is woke because you kill Nazis? Seriously wtf is wrong with people. They don't know history or why things are the way they are.

I took a video of a local trans band near me last week. posted it to YouTube. The dislike count is significant (5 dislikes vs 8 likes) and I already deleted one transphobic comment.

So if you could watch this video, give it a like, and share it around that would rule! also the band is awesome!

One idea I've been toying with for the last 20 years is a record label like company that is a co-op with the artists signed to it and the workers. All money would be profit shared across everyone involved.

I'm kind of shocked that this still doesn't exist.

A lot of people talk about exposure bucks, or not to take deals based JUST on exposure. Well I disagree. Exposure can do a lot when it's enough people. I'd look at how large the opportunity is and think of it as $3.5 per 1k people that will be exposed by the opportunity.

Lions are the unofficial animal of June!

Why? Oh because they form Prides.

I don’t really like talking about it but I ended stream abruptly today. I had a bit of a panic attack while eating dinner, so instead of coming back I just ended stream.

It’s important to talk about these things. I’m feeling better now and hope I can sleep well tonight. See y’all again soon!
