What kind of content can I expect?
Single-Player Video Games with a bit of Just Chatting. I focus on Retro games on Fridays, and Surreal/Trippy/Aesthetic indie games on Tuesdays.
What's the vibe like?
I'm mostly calm when it comes to games. I can react strongly if I fail miserably but I don't get gamer mad. I try to be comfy and friendly, but I am excitable too. I tend to get more excitable and impulsive when tired, so the energy levels will vary. I swear sometimes and can drop the occasional edgy joke. I'm not flirty or lewd, but like I might make a 'deez nuts' joke or about that level of raunchiness.

Why no affiliate?
Twitch ads are poorly implemented. I don't want them on my stream. I also don't think that the revenue split between streamers and Twitch is fair. I have no problem with people who choose to become affiliates on Twitch. I weighed up the pros and cons for me personally and the cons won.
But how to support???
I am stoked that people tune in, even for a short time or to lurk. That is supporting me by juicing my brain with dopamine. I also welcome recommendations for games, anime, and other cool things you think I might like. Another way to support me is to mention me to a friend who is looking for new streamers to watch, but only if you think they might enjoy my vibe or content. Please be polite about this, only do it if someone asks for a recommendation.
Merch?
Merch is coming eventually! I am working on balancing quality, value, and the ethical aspects to make sure it's good value for your money.
Hobby? Business? Saying 'hobby' but would secretly business if things went well?
I am 100% a hobby streamer. I have life plans which are not compatible full-time streaming. I realise that business-minded streamers need to manage their time carefully, and that networking with hobby streamers might not always be in line with their goals. I am happy to network, be friendly with, and shitpost in the chat of business-minded streamers. I'm not going to be salty about other people having goals and ambitions, but I do not share said goals and ambitions. Please be mindful of this when trying to network with me - I don't want to waste anyone's time, and I would hate to think that I've made a friend when the other person thinks they're making a business contact.
Where's the music from?
Thanks! I use a variety of DMCA-safe music. Music is not included in the VODs, with limited exceptions. Music will always be credited on screen. A list of music sources is available here.
Do I need to abide by Vtuber Chat Etiquette?
No. I use a Vtuber avatar, but I am not part of mainstream vtuber culture. You can free talk in chat, talk about other streamers and vtubers, mention that you stream and talk about streaming (don't be shameless, no barefaced promo please), vent (within reason, I am happy to listen to a bit of venting but I can't meaningfully address trauma or serious life issues), make requests, ask questions about streaming or vtubing, shitpost, @ each other, and so on. Just keep things in line with chat rules and Twitch TOS. If you cross a line I will tell you, gently, because boundaries are different between people and I don't expect you to guess. However, please read the room and don't take my trash aesthetic and sense of humour as license to go fully feral. If you persistently act like a jerk after being asked to stop it we're going to have a problem.
Wait, what's Vtuber Chat Etiquette?
There's a general code of conduct that chatters are expected to abide by within vtuber culture. If you go on to interact with mainstream vtubers I recommend learning about it. Please don't assume that the kind of interactions I am ok with are ok with other vtubers.
How are you anime?
I'm a vtuber. I control a 3d avatar with my voice, face, and movements. There are lots of ways to become a vtuber. I'm a 3D Vroid vtuber. I made my avatar in Vroid Studio and edited it in Blender and Unity. I control the avatar with a free program called VSeeFace via a webcam, an Android phone for expression recognition via Meowface Tracker, and an IR hand tracker (LeapMotion). Everything except the webcam, tracker, phone and some of the texture assets was free.
WHY are you anime?
Because it's FUN
