Twitch helpfully describing me every time I stream: a live unstable British crumpet

*tap tap tap* Is this thing on? Does it even work any more? Let's see, because I'm back! With a totally unplanned 6-year affiliate anniversary stream 🥳🎉

Finally, we can confirm that @filmotter.bsky.social is NOT a giant and is actually a goo goo gaga bitch baby on a totally normal sized chair
Otter lying down and flailing on the seat of a huge wooden chair with orange seat, legs and arms and a plain light wooden back with the text “Yerba Buena Gardens”

Today’s very sensible stream plan: me, knowing nothing about pikmin, guiding a blindfolded Otter through the game… This will be chaos 😆
www.twitch.tv/filmotter2
Me sitting in Otter’s chair with a plush blue pikmin on my shoulder. Behind me, Otter is waving his arms to find his way as his eyes are covered with a blindfold decorated with wide pikmin eyes and a blue pikmin sprout with a green leaf on top

Otter: Let’s go to the zoo!
Me: Aww, we got engaged there 🥰
Otter: Yes, but this time there’s horror and murder and Zoochosis, UwU
Me: Help 👀
Otter: And we’re making it have extra chaos 🎉

I may not have my luggage, but I’ve had a haircut so I can look pretty 😆

Me wearing a white tank top and holding a hand up to present the logo on it: two M&Ms-like characters, one red and one blue, but these are "S&Ms", both wearing leather harnesses. The red "S" holds a whip and the blue "M" wears a leather hat. The two plush Chair Monkeys peep out from the back of the chair behind my head

Finally, some proper British summer weather!
A screenshot of the weather app showing the current temperature 15C (feels like 10C) and a 10-day forecast showing rain for every day with low temperatures ranging from 9-12C and highs of 15-17C (for the Muricans: 10C is 50F, 16C is about 61F)

Hollow there! Ready to Silk Snog? (finally unsicky and alive!)

Last night I felt like I was finally almost recovered from the nasty virus that has kept me laid up in bed this week. I slept for 12 hours... and woke up full of cold 🤧 Can my poor immune system get a break from viruses? Or at least make the next one a macrovirus so I can go all Action Janeway on it
Captain Janeway, in a purple tank top and with a knife in one hand, faces off against a macrovirus - a roughly tetrahedral brown creature with a tendril emerging from each of the points of its pyramid body and a spike pointing down from its base - in a corridor on Voyager in the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Macrocosm"
