I applied for Twitch partner on May 8th. NOT telling my community that I was even ABLE to apply, let alone that I had.. WAS SO HARD. Having to keep my mouth shut for literally 75 days was SOOO hard. Thankyou friends who knew and kept my secret, you made it a lot easier🧡
If you block someone on
@discord
you shouldn't be able to see each other's activity at all. I'm getting really tired of going to great lengths to ignore someone and having them continually disrespect my boundaries simply because they are able to.. because discord blocking sucks.
If you go into a channel, and their humour isn't your cup of tea, you don't need to give them shit. They don't need to cater to you. Just LEAVE. There are heaps of streamers out there and none of them are going to change for you, so find one that already fits your vibe.
I've said this before and I'll say it again. Support content creators because you love what they do, without an agenda for growth. Build real connections, not a ladder. And remember, we aren't all competition, we can INSPIRE one another.
This little dude and I have been on our own since he was 4. It isn't easy, but I wouldn't trade our life together for anything. Today my little baby is 17. I'm so proud of the man he's becoming 💜 We will be live celebrating his birthday at 12:30pm MST with
@TomNK21
and
@Glae_dw
There sure are a lot of people in the streaming space who "support" only as long as they don't feel like someone is doing better than them. I know it sounds crazy, but other streamers aren't your competition 🤷♀️
Woke up at 3am with an overwhelming sense of "check outside".. and there he was! Very hungry and skittish, probably seen some stuff, but he's home. Worst two nights ever 😭🧡
Legit. My son interrupted my stream in a plague doctor mask to bring me fresh warm gingerbread cookies that he started baking when I went live. Sneaky. and appreciated. What kind of kid is this?!
My entire Twitch journey has centered around this game, simply because I genuinely love it. This is something that's been a goal for a long time. Crossing my everythings
@KineticGame
sees my passion for it too.
This wonderful little baby boy of mine is officially graduated! I couldn't be more proud of the man he is becoming, and I'm so excited to see where this life takes him! GG
@ChromeWizardry
I love you more than anything 💜
Streaming is a dream come true for a lot of us. Goals are important. Seeing your hard work pay off is exciting and wonderful. But at the core of it all, you need to actually enjoy what you're doing. This isn't an easy or consistent ride. A solid base of "I love this" is huge.
One year ago I was celebrating hitting 2000 followers and waiting to hear back on my partner application. Now I'm so close to 6000 followers and we will be celebrating my first partnerversary next month! 🤯
I've decided to drop Thursdays from my schedule for the time being. I am spread too thin and starting to burn out. Trying to keep a balance so that my content doesn't suffer, but neither does my well-being. Hopefully I will be able to add another daytime stream in the future 💜
Coming into someone's stream, following, and asking to be followed back is not how you network.
Support content creators because you love what they do, you'll form connections and gain GENUINE support organically.
So
@SirenPM_
warned us that she's a stress packer. She literally stress packed for all of us. I cut my finger when we were out for coffee and this lady pulled a first aid kit out of her purse lolllll
I've been with my fiance for nine years. We haven't seen each other in person in almost three years. That ends one week from now and I. Cannot. Wait. 😭
I've canceled a few streams this month, all because there were other things I had to do. Today I'm canceling because I really need a day of doing nothing. JUST NOTHING. I need a nothing day. Sorry friends, today is my nothing day and there is no stream. I'll see you tomorrow!
No stream today. Attaching my discord blurb. My heart hurts for the people on Maui. I'm sure
@Glae_dw
is fine but I can't relax until I hear it from him.
This last year I discovered Phasmo, joined the best stream team, hit 2800 followers, averaging 100+ viewers, met the most amazing humans and built a BEAUTIFUL community of chaos and love. I'll be streaming 12 hours this coming Saturday starting at 10am MST to celebrate one year!
I keep seeing the most basic of twitch etiquette getting stommmped on. WHY. It's not hard. I've seen two raids spoiled tonight. DON'T SPOIL RAIDS. HOW HARD IS IT TO NOT SPOIL A RAID??!!! where am I? what is this?
This single mom thing is hard. It's been 14 years and it's still hard. My entire support system is long-distance and I exist in a whirlwind of anxiety. I need a break. Just a period of calm.
GOLD TROPHY ACQUIRED! I panicked. I screamed. A neighbour banged on all my doors thinking I was being attacked and almost called 911. Incoming sign for my door explaining the noise. Also me trying to not be so loud LOL. ALSO YAY @ having neighbours who CHECK ON PEOPLE 💜
I've hit a point in my life where the pyramid scheme moms have been replaced entirely by graphic artists wanting to sell their services.
I have 17 years of experience in ignoring your dm's.
Give a warm welcome to our newest Midnight Society member, the incredible

Hold onto your seats, because July is packed with thrilling surprises! Keep your eyes open—you won’t want to miss a thing! 👀🖤
Are people really complaining about lurkers on twitch? Is this really a thing? Twitter is a cesspool so sometimes I miss things, but if you're lurking my stream know that I appreciate you SO MUCH <3 Thankyou for taking the time to bring me up while you do whatever you need to do
I feel like I owe my community an apology for yesterday. I had something throw me off mid-stream that ruined my mood and made me completely scatterbrained. I had trouble focusing after that and forgot some pretty important things before we raided out. Sorry friends💜
Saturday is my birthday stream! Birthday stream! BIRTHDAY STREEEEAM! MY ACTUAL REAL ONE, YAAAAY! 12 HOURS OF ME MAKING WEIRD FACES AND YELLING! 42! THE ANSWER TO EVERYTHING! CAPSLOCK!
In 12 short hours I'll be on my way to the airport to pick up
@Glae_dw
LONG DISTANCE IS HARD. It has been almost a year since we last saw each other. I. Cannot. Wait. I CANNOT WAIT 🤩🤩🤩
It isn't much but it is mine. Packing this space is going to feel like the end of an era. I've worked hard on it and I love it. We have been renting this condo for eight years. This is my happy place. It'll be the last to get packed.
There is nothing I am more proud of in this world than my sweet kid. He is smart, funny, empathetic, witty, and kind. I am confident that I have raised someone who contributes to the goodness in this world, and that is such a huge win. My little itty bitty baby is all grown up 😭
I won't be live again until next Wednesday! Super nervous for the break, but the break is also needed. I'm spending this weekend with my beautiful friends
@damn_it_karen_
@evielution_ttv
and
@SirenPM_
in the rocky mountains. FOUR DAYS OF FRIENDSHIP AND RELAXING.
Someone came into my stream the other day and informed me that I need to spend time doing my hair and that wearing a headband is just so low effort. I guess I'm feeling a little sensitive lately because I'M STILL MAD ABOUT IT. I love headbands. They hide my grey and my bedhead🖕
After one week, this is where we are at. This team and community has beyond exceeded anything I could have hoped for.
@Glae_dw
has kept us posted on what
@RedCross
is doing on his island and I am just SO PROUD that we are a part of it. We are continuing until Sept. 3rd!
@mishacollins
I missed this and now I am big sad but also.. YOU ARE SO AWESOME. I can't think of any other celebrity ever who would do this. You made a lot of peoples day 💜💜💜
After 15 years of being an ECE.. next week is my last week. June's focus will be my content and this move. And we'll be transitioning into FULL TIME CONTENT CREATION EXCUSE ME? This is the best silver lining to a shit situation.. literally ever. Have some Meowfurion and Pippin🩷
There's been a lot the last couple weeks. Stress of a new boss and big changes at work, as well as personal stress and betrayal I know a lot of us have been feeling. I think it all dogpiled me yesterday. I just slept for 11 hours. Sorry I missed all the streams last night 🖤
TODAY I begin my first ever fundraiser. This is a cause that is close to my heart. Maui is where my person was born and raised and still lives. We have made so many beautiful memories there and my heart is shattered for the people who have lost so much. Let's help.
This past week, we hit the incredible milestone of 5000 followers. A year and a half ago I was barely starting this journey, and here we are. Partnered, 5000 followers, and part of the best scream team. Celebrating on Sunday the 5th with 12 HOURS of games! THANKYOU FOR EVERYTHING
It has been two months since my discord with almost a thousand people was deleted. Today I realized that we are now at 500 members in our new server! So thankful for this community 😭💜 What an amazing fresh start!
@Twitch
This is still a joke. No other platform takes the amount of money you do from its creators. We're talking about money GIVEN TO US BY OUR VIEWERS. And you think that the majority of us should continue to give you HALF?
My very first
@KickStreaming
stream was.. insane. My community followed me from Twitch like the amazing wonderful people they are. 30 minutes in, kick staff appeared, I was slapped on the front page, and instantly given my sub button. I don't even know what to say. Overwhelmed 💜
If you start out with "I haven't played it BUT" and then go on to give a horrible review of a game you haven't played and clearly don't know about, I lose respect. That goes for pretty much anything. How can you give an honest take on something you haven't bothered to experience?
It has been an insane week full of reminders of our mortality. Remember to take care of yourselves. Don't be afraid to ask for help before things get out of hand. And slow down.
Thankyou for coming to hang out today.
@Glae_dw
and I are so thankful for you all. The amazing
@M_NightSociety
are banding together in a team fundraiser kicking off Aug. 20th with
@ih8beingscrd
and his 3k celebration and continuing until the 31st with various team members. Love
I'm in a constant state of learning, but when I'm asked what I feel is important on this journey, it's simple and unchanging.
🪄Build real friendships.
🪄Support without an agenda
🪄Be genuine
🪄and do NOT be afraid to stand up for yourself and what you believe in
Today was SO fun. Except for the part where someone said the only redeeming thing about my stream is my smile (homie, that's not the compliment you thought it was lol)... because people were playing with woopie cushions and laughing. HERE'S YOUR PSA- WE THINK FARTS ARE FUNNY
Pro-tip, if you treat someone unfairly and they tell you they are done with it and to leave them alone... LEAVE THEM ALONE. Respect that boundary and LEAVE. THEM. ALONE. They don't owe you a damn thing. Don't make it WEIRD.
Thankyou everyone for all of the love and support yesterday. Again, I'm overwhelmed with this wonderful thing we've built together. I'm going to take today off to decompress, but I'll be around! I need to recover after screaming that it's not my birthday for 6 hours LOL
No stream tonight. I hate to cancel, but I'm under the weather and dead on my feet at work. Going to take tonight and tomorrow to rest up and I will be back with solo custom runs on Saturday at 1:30pm mst 💜 Sorry frands :(
Yesterday was insane. I hope you all know how incredibly overwhelmingly greatful I am. Whether you raided in, came to play, vibed in chat, you're all amazing and I cannot stress enough how much I love our community. Thankyou for making my birthday something I'll never forget❤️
