Tried checking my own settings for this, and I don't seem to have it. However, my audio device is also listed as RealTek, since I downloaded that driver directly to install when I built this computer.
Though, dunno if that'll work with Bluetooth/Wireless devices. Could be worth a try?
Screenshot from my Windows System Sounds, showing only Realtek(R) Audio as the only Speaker device on my system. Screenshot from my Windows Sound Settings, specifically the Properties for the Realtek(R) Audio "device" I have connected to my system. Which is actually just the Audio Driver I downloaded and installed from Realtek. Showing that the Audio Enhancements doesn't exist for me.

If there was ever any doubt...
Though, I guess I do fall slightly into something close/similar to genderfluid at times, cause I do have my 'Fem' personality. Even though I just feel more Them/They/Him over merely He/They when in that way. 🤔

Take the test here: www.idrlabs.com/7-identities...
My answers to the Seven Identities Test, in a graphic format. This reads with the following results: Top line: Cisgender 13%, Gender Fluid 43%, Non-Binary 46%, and Transgender 100% Bottom Line: Genderqueer 53%, Intersex 56%, and Agender 70% At the bottom it says: "Your identity is primarily transgender (100%)."

For the moment though, I wish to share the only piece of my new avatars I've been able to get comm'd so far (Had others planned, but finances took a bit of a dive on me😭)

This was made by Stamlex on Vgen (vgen.co/stamlex) where I was given constant updates on the progress. 🥰 He's worth the comm!
This is a commissioned piece of my upcoming new avatar(s) for streaming. A Duality of myself as my Masculine (he/they) self, and Feminine (they/them/he) self. The characters are both dark skinned (as a nod to my family's indigeneous background), with the masc having dark purple-to-black hair with a bright blue streak on the right side (slightly hidden in this image). His clothing is a net crop top and long sleeved jacket with open shoulders and electronic wiring throughout it, more visable in the bottom half where it goes from black to blue. He wears a pair of asymmetrical black and neon-striped pants, where the right leg is shorts-length, and then turns to netting. Covered by a pair of ropes on the upper thigh and a galaxy-themed leg warmer. He is also wearing a pair of high heeled boots, and various belts crossing at different directions over his lower torso. Fem's clothing is mostly hidden (as her back's to the audience), showing only a similar long-sleeved, no shoulder, black coat with blue tint at the bottom and wiring motif throughout. And a pair of high-heeled leather boots. They have bright blue hair with a dark purple streak on both sides just behind their ears. Both forms have eyes that look like they're cybernetic in nature, one blue and one green. The background is a neon-coloured flame with a galaxy-like backdrop, and a blue/purple cybernetic lightning loosely wrapping around the characters.

The Discord is also full of helpful people. And most of the time, if I get stuck on something, someone else has too. So I've been able to find the info there. 🤔

The hardest part, imo, was figuring out the graphs. One I'm proud of figuring out was a redeem to 'chill' my avatar with ice cubes. 🥶🧊
An image of a graph node from the Vnyan Software, where it will throw ice cubes at my avatar (with matching sound of them pinging off me), then turn me blue for a time. It uses the nodes: Channel Points, Parameter Filter, Set Parameter (x2), Start Timer, Throw Item, Timer and Effect: Color Grading to achieve this.

What's been up with me and art lately?

TL:DR - Tablet issues, and needing to wait on holiday/birthday money to potentially fix it.

More full explanation in image (and re-written in alt text)
A post I wrote on my person Discord so that I could say more in a single post that reads: I've had so many ideas to draw lately, but the issues with my tablet make it difficult to keep the creativity flowing. For those curious; 1) My tablet's pens stopped working off the cord. So I gotta keep them plugged in to work. And one of the two have stopped working completely. 2) The screen is now not registering touches in a few places. And while I can move the image around to get to those places, it's frustrating. 3) The connection may have been slightly damaged, so if the cord moves, the whole screen goes fuzzy and takes a while to clear. (In Bold) Ok, so pick up a new tablet, they're cheap, right? Typically, yes. But I've become so accustomed to working on a tablet MONITOR, that going back to a regular tablet will be a learning process. (In bold) Why not ask for help getting a new one? This... may be a bit complicated to explain, but I'll try. I don't repost mutual aid stuff for the same reason that I won't ask for help anymore; namely, I seem to bring out the most vile people when I ask for help for myself or others. And sometimes, those vile people go after those I ask for help for too. So it's better for all if I just... don't. I should get some money from my father and grandmother sometime in the next couple of months. And hopefully my name change will go through in the next month or so, which then means I can open up my Vgen (And just struggle with the current issues to do stuff) So... it's mostly just dealing until then. Still just frustrating to have ideas, and not be able to do anything with them. :(

You do what you can; remove the person, make it clear your thoughts don't align with them, and try to continue on.
Which it seems you've begun here. It'll be continuing on that may be difficult, depending on how close they were to you. But, I believe in ya.

Was going to share this from someone else, but realized it was missing the alt text. So wrote that up to share.

I'm bouncing between 9, 10 and 11 most days lately when it comes to both streaming and artwork. Which is... not fun. -.-
I thought I was getting better, but some days I wonder... am I?
An image of 12 rainbow coloured flames, each denoting a different stage of burnout. The overall image has lots of text, which reads (top to bottom, left to right) The 12 Stages of Burnout [Starts with a dark blue flame] Stage 1 - You feel there is a strong need to prove yourself. [A slightly lighter blue flame] Stage 2 - You keep working harder and harder to achieve this. [A teal flame] Stage 3 - You begin to neglect your own needs more. [A dark green-brown flame] Stage 4 - You are conflicted and blame others or the situation. [A deep green flame] Stage 5 - You change your values to focus on work more. [A light green flame] Stage 6 - You deny the problems that arise due to work stress. [A pale yellow-green flame] Stage 7 - You withdraw from social life and your family as well. [A dark yellow flame] Stage 8 - Your behaviour changes which upsets your loved ones. [A bright yellow flame] Stage 9 - Depersonalization happens, you do not feel like yourself. [An orangish-yellow flame] Stage 10 - You feel empty and numb, substance abuse can occur. [A bright orange flame] Stage 11 - You feel depressed, lost and completely exhausted. [A bright red flame] Stage 12 - You mentally and physically collapse. Full burnout.

From another Social Vampire, you're not alone. ❤️
And it seems to take such a long time to find the people who DO listen to you saying this.

Here's hoping you find the people who can remember to invite you, even if it's just now and then, to lessen the feelings.

For now, I offer penguin to cuddle.

An interesting quiz some are doing recently, called the Kink-Friendly BDSM Test.
IMO, My result makes a lot of sense for myself as an Aegosexual. 😂😈

If you'd like to try it, it can be found here: spankpls.com/bdsm-test
An image of a quiz result for a Kink-Type quiz. It contains the following: You are... (A picture of comedy and tragedy masks in yellow and red) The Roleplayer 83.3% match You are a storyteller, a shapeshifter. Whether scripting or stepping into a persona, you find freedom in make-believe. Roleplay explores hidden desires, forbidden fantasies, or playful scenarios. BDSM is a theater where every role lets you escape, experiment and connect in ways reality might not allow. The mask reveals as much as it conceals. (The next is written inside of a box) Likely preferences Romance & Affection, Degradation, Praise, Objectification, Feminization

I'm very obviously not someone who does or shares a lot of sexual things. (There's the occassional, but for the most part, just not my thing) HOWEVER, I fully support consentual, adult-based sexual content, entertainment, and work.
As long as it passes the Harkness Test, you're good in my books. 🥰
An image of a "test" called the Harkness Test, based on the character Jack Harkness from the Doctor Who and Torchwood series, whom was known to be a massive flirt with practically anything and everything adult. The writing on it is as follows: So you want to fuck a fictional creature? Give it the Harkness test first! []Does it have Human Intelligence (or "greater")? []Can it talk or otherwise communicate with language*? []Is it of sexual maturity for its species? If the answer to all three is "yes" then you can fuck it! It's a nonhuman creature with sentience and all you need to have consentual sex with. If you answered "no" to one or more, watch out! That's beastiality or possibly pedophilia! Don't fuck it! Here's an illustrated guide: (This now denotes two images of a serpent-esque creature.) On the left it shows a red X with the serpent-esque creature baring its teeth and the following dialogue: Are you an adult? HISS! Do you want to fuck? GRONK! Below it reads: DO NOT FUCK THIS On the right, it shows a green checkmark, the serpent-esque creature blushing and the following dialogue: Are you an adult? Certainly. Do you want to fuck? Of course-! Below it reads: It's OK to fuck this! At the bottom of the image is the asterix'd explanation of the previous part about communicating with language, as follows: *Body language is a dangerous road. As always, err on the side of caution. Only rely on body language if both parties have attempted communication through different means and failed due to language barriers and other special situations.

Friend: "Hey, so, what's taking so long for you to get back to streaming?" 👀

Me: "My OCPD demands perfection and classically animating an overlay takes a while to do?" 🤣

F: "... What do you mean classically animating an overlay?" 🤔

Me: 🙃

PSA: You can just like things and it can be seen.

I say this because I keep seeing people saying that Reskeeting is the ONLY way to see what others post.
I had to unfollow this Feed to grab this screenshot to show that that is not true. We have a way to see what people are just liking too!
A screencap of the Feed Option on Bluesky that is called "Popular with Friends", a feed created by Bluesky itself. It reads: A mix of popular content from accounts you follow and content that your follows like. The last section is underlined and pointed at with the word "this" to point out that you can just Like someone's post and it can be seen by others.

Still got a number of things to get finished, but feel like sharing this teaser of my upcoming avatar(s?).
Even as either version, I remain He/They, for those curious. ❤️

(Hope the alt text explains well, cause I know it was a lot to describe without giving everything away in a teaser 😅)
A teaser image of my upcoming avatar look (with AU version). Black is used to obscure parts of the picture, and the rest is shadowed but shows hints of Masc and Fem presenting people. They are medium-dark skinned, wearing clothing in black with teal-blue and violet circut-like lines. Net mesh cover the Masc's chest and right leg, and up to the mid thigh of the Fem's legs. Both are wearing black boots with a heel, though the Fem's show a heart token hanging off. With hints of dark purple hair on the Masc and bright blue on the Fem. Along the left side is writing saying Soon in fancy script, with a cartoon expression face winking, and holding up fingers in a 'peace' sign above the initials MA. The background is a gradient of blue to purple, with random stars shining.

Was looking through some older drives, and ended up coming across photos I took of some of those Felt Poster's you could colour in.
I never used the markers they included. Preferring to use my Crayola Crayons, Pencils and Markers to create; well, these.
And I'm chuckling at how I always incl. a 🌈
Photograph of a Felt Poster for children to colour, depicting a Magic User casting a large spell while holding a smokey orb. I coloured this when I was around 20yrs old, using Crayola Markers, Crayons and Pencils. A picture of a Felt Poster made for children to colour, depicting a Dragon looming down over cliffs and breathing fire. Unfinished colouring, but what is there was coloured around age 20 with Crayola Markers, Crayons and Pencils.

QRP with your flags!

^-^
Panromantic Flag, which is bars of Bright Blue, Green, Orange and Red (leaning towards Pink) from top to bottom. Aegosexual Flag - Uses the Asexual colours of Black, Grey, White and Purple from top to bottom with an inverted triangle of the colours going the opposite way. For those who don't know; Aegosexual is those who experience a disconnect between themselves and the subject of their arousal. Most commonly (but not always) linked with Fictosexual. Was originally known as Autochorissexual, but due to it being connected to Paraphilia (attraction to social taboos), many have moved away from that terminology in favour of Aego. TransMasculine Flag with stripes of White, Light Blue, Blue, and Dark Blue/Black from top to bottom.

Took me a moment to find it, but I recalled having a photo of one of hers.
Just for a visual on how they turned out doing this. ^-^

It's pretty straightforward, specially if you download the application to use. The default settings tend to be fine to use, but they give options for higher protections if desired. Just takes longer to render is all.
(Warning, though: if you go higher on the Intensity, then you may see things)

Take the fictional characters quiz and post the first four you know
openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac...

Q from James Bond scored as my highest. So that's who I'm showing in the first photo. (Though, Bond is on my list too 😅)

There were others I knew before some of these, but I don't like them.🙃
A picture of James Bond (Pierce Brosnan) and Q (Desmond Llewelyn) from the James Bond movie series, during a scene where Q is showing James some new gadgets. An image of Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne) from the Matrix movies. Wearing his signiture trench coat, dark glasses, and holding both a gun and sword.

The Might & Magic series will always hold a special place in my heart (Fond memories w/my mother)
And recently, I decided to replay MMX. I was absolutely amused by the name the game gave me for my Mercenary.
She is absolutely thrilled to be travelling with her party whom accept her unconditionally 🥰
Screenshot of my character from Ubisoft (Formerly 3DO)'s Might & Magic X: Legacy. Showing what the game gave me as a 'male' Human Mercenary, that got the name Laura. We accept her choices. Always :)
