Happy October! We're officially in the last quarter of the year and I can't believe how quickly 2024 has gone by. I'm truly so grateful for all of the successes I've had this year and I'm eager for more opportunities.
If you'd like to work with me, I'd love to connect 🌾🤍
the starbucks ceo has directly donated to Israel and this company is constantly union-busting, completely disregarding the needs and wants of their employees.
on top of that, their coffee is ASS. support your local coffee shops who make better coffee <3
also just need to say if you support
@acnhsulky
and their build of a real crime done by a man that preyed on queer black and brown men don’t interact with me ever :)
i’ve never been a huge stardew fan but it’s incredibly disappointing to see trans people (some of whom i’m mutuals with) be targeted and harassed for one simple ask: the ability to choose pronouns in the game. not only has
@ConcernedApe
refused to acknowledge it (1/?)
being in community with folks, especially marginalized folks, means contributing to mutual aid consistently and regularly. there is so much suffering and distress we could relive for others if we took mutual aid more seriously as a whole
i am SO EXCITED to finally reveal my new pngtuber!! she’s everything i dreamed of and more. shami is truly so talented and professional and i’m so honored to have had my pngtuber made by her 🥹 can’t wait to share her on stream with y’all soon 🌷🌿
this is beyond wanting a change to pronouns and gendered dialogue in this game. trans people are being bullied, harassed and doxxed bc they feel emboldened by this developer’s silence and complacency. don’t let those not in community with us feel like we’re being “too aggressive”
Stardew Valley 1.6.6 is now available for PC. It's mostly bug fixes and translation changes. Full patch notes can be found here:
Console and mobile ports are still in progress, thank you again for your continued patience!
some of these “cozy” streamers are still way too quiet about the various human rights violations happening around the world. you are not a safe space if you can’t advocate for those in need
since there isn't any alt text on these and the alt text is too long to add here, i added all of this information to a google document for easy access and readability 🇵🇸🤍
whenever i feel like i'm not doing enough regarding my streams and creating content, something happens that reminds me i'm doing the best i can 🥹
i'm eternally grateful to say i'm now a member of the

i’m unbelievably honored to say that i’m now a part of
@DisabledCCC
🥹 my disability is fairly new to me and i’ve def struggled with feeling like i have the right to take up space among other disabled folks. thank you to Chichi and his lovely stream team for this opportunity 🤍
i stopped supporting them during 2020 after their reaction to employees supporting BLM and i will continue to take my business elsewhere when i order coffee
while there are many streamers who have decided to stop streaming sdv, i realize there are some that may continue to for whatever reason. if you’re one of these people, please make sure you’re advocating for the trans community at all times. here are some resources 🤍
fellow streamers, I made you a range of resources for use during your Stardew streams if you'd like ⤵
The QR Code leads to the Change dot Org Petition to add gender neutral pronouns into Stardew Valley 🖤
i’m extremely disappointed by the way some of the people called leaders in the Latine twitch community have handled important conversations about colorism, racism and antiblackness. due to this, i have made the decision to leave the Twitch Latin Guild 🤍
but now real harm is being inflicted upon fans of his game. and it’s absolutely his obligation to take a stand against this. his silence speaks volumes but to let this violence continue would be beyond any repair or forgiveness for a lot of people who have supported him
if you belong to any marginalized community i urge you to begin the work to unlearn respectability politics. there are people that will be against us, will not listen or learn, or care about us no matter how polite and patient we are. real change requires passion and anger
if this is a game you continue to stream and you consider yourself an ally to the trans community, please ensure that you’re amplifying their voices and not just ignoring the issues for the sake of your cozy game
i sincerely hope the discussion being led by disabled folks regarding the mass amount of people that didn’t mask at twitchcon is taken seriously by those of us who consider ourselves to be allies. you are not an ally if you don’t prioritize the safety of those most vulnerable
two “independence” days being celebrated this week when these countries were quite literally built on the suffering and deaths of the most vulnerable communities in Canada and the US. support your indigenous and black communities always but especially on these days
WE'VE GOT BRIMOTES!!! by the incredibly talented
@kellyfleur_
💐🤍 i'm so in love with every single one of these and can't wait to see y'all to use them on my channel :')
many people who call themselves allies or advocates don’t consider mutual aid as part of their practice, even though mutual aid is one of the few direct ways you can advocate for and be an ally to marginalized folks
i’m not going to share that valorant clip that’s going around as it contains some very triggering content. but it’s so exhausting to exist as a woman in a space like gaming, a space where we deserve a place but one where cishet men feel they can keep degrading and demeaning us
the conversation needs to stay centered on the violence people are facing and the need to address it, NOT the feelings of
@ConcernedApe
or whether it’s still okay to play his game
as a black latina (who still very much faces a lot of privilege in this space i belong to) it’s been super disappointing to see dismissal as a response to attempts to have important conversations surrounding things that black and indigenous latines disproportionately experience
once again
@ConcernedApe
’s silence is enabling bigots who don’t even play his game to run around the internet harassing people who actually like his game and care about its progress. at this point i’m inclined to believe he’s okay with transphobes being in his community 🤷🏽♀️
it’s amazing (ridiculous) how someone can do everything imaginable to avoid taking any kind of accountability for the harm they’ve caused to others. my heart goes out to every single person who was taken advantage of and hurt by Jupie.
no YOU made a scuffed graphic in 5 minutes for your newest announcement!
i'm soooooo excited to announce that i'm now a member of

#GeauxCeauxnes
good morning!! i’m so proud of everyone who’s spoken up about the issues of colorism, antiblackness and anti-indigenous sentiment that’s been occurring in the Twitch Latine space and brought it to the guild leadership 🫶🏼
i hope the future of ALL unity guilds is one where those who are most often ignored and silenced are actually allowed to ask for change. there are still power imbalances among marginalized communities and it doesn't seem like some of y'all get that
introducing my newest pngtuber by
@sa_shimiii
inspired by florabelle from afk journey!!!
this is the fourth time i've worked with shami and i can't recommend her enough. i'm so happy with this and can't wait to debut her on stream 🤍
Happy September 🐻🍂 I finally updated my media kit! While I will be traveling later this month for Twitchcon, I'm looking to connect with companies that will be attending or are hoping to work with newer streamers. I'm also open to opportunities for Latine Heritage Month! 🇲🇽
telling black and indigenous Latines (who face discrimination and violence in the Latine community due to not being “pure”) that WE are the ones saying this to a mixed white Latina is certainly a choice
so based on sahar’s and my experiences this week, along with the experiences of those sharing how a word that’s a synonym for scary has harmed them, it’s so fucking clear that too many of y’all are NOT advocates or safe spaces. i’m so frustrated and disappointed
it’s the last day of Black History Month so here’s another reminder to support and advocate for your Black friends and peers, Black creatives in and outside of your online spaces, and Black people as a whole throughout the entire year ‼️
one million daily covid infections and y’all still won’t mask to protect those most vulnerable (disabled, elderly, immunocompromised) and yourselves. and this number is severely underreported bc not enough people are testing
everyone say hello to my new pngtuber by the always incredible shami!! i made a minimal notion board for a garden magical girl and she just made my vision come alive 🥹 can’t wait to show her off on stream this weekend 🌿🤍
happy juneteenth y'all!
some actions you can take today include learning the history of juneteenth, donating to mutual aid funds and black orgs, supporting black businesses, and/or supporting your favorite black latinx creator 🤭
@BeniArts
regardless of your intentions, please be mindful of the symbols you use for witchy/Halloween aesthetics as it only furthers negative rhetoric about these religions
will be taking a little stream/content hiatus. my mental health is on a huge decline rn and i can barely even manage to work my normal job. i have one commitment to keep later this month but that's it for now.
thank you to anyone who has checked up on me so far <3
In more positive news, I have been graciously invited to be a Crowd Control Partner! I'm so excited to see how this transforms my streams. Thank you to
@monistreams
and the Twitch Latin Guild for this opportunity 🤍
i have some super exciting news!! i joined
@pineconestreams
this year and it's been the loveliest experience. and yesterday i was offered the role of DEI lead!!
i'm so honored to have been considered and i'm so looking forward to seeing how i can make an impact for our team 🤍
good morning! here’s a reminder that our community leaders owe US (their members) transparency and accountability, not the other way around. rather than any kind of acknowledgment or clarity regarding our concerns of the way the Latin Guild leaders have handled things (1)
conversations about oppression and violence need to be led by those it most affects and it’s not an attack on any individual to call that out and ask for better advocacy
September is Suicide Prevention Month. Being diagnosed with premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), I regularly deal with suicidal ideation at varying levels. I’m extremely grateful to still be here with the people I care about, but it can still be so hard when it’s at its worst.
idk why white people think they have the right to say people are too sensitive when it comes to racial things like what the fuck would you know about that 😭
it’s very odd timing that some our other guild leaders who have been quiet about this situation are retweeting Daniela’s posts when this was never about her and on top of that she has a slur in her username but what do EYE know
i also want to say that it's beyond disappointing to see creators of color paint everyone who brought up any critique towards Beni as aggressors, even going so far as to say we're a "lynch mob". stop. tone. policing.
Happy Trans Day of Visibility!
today we honor, acknowledge and celebrate the triumphs and achievements made for our trans community, while looking within ourselves to find ways to better support and advocate for our trans friends and peers 🤍
i urge everyone to be mindful of using the “cats and dogs” comments from last night’s debate as humor. this stems from antiblack and xenophobic sentiment towards Haitians and it is incredibly harmful to keep perpetuating this, even as a joke.
if you missed my announcement on stream today...
i'm so excited to announce that i've been chosen as a
@LAGShowcase
co-streamer!! please join me this Saturday to check out games that are being made in LATAM by Latine devs.
y'all know where to find me ➡️ twitch / margabrita 🤍
beyond excited to announce that I’ll be joining this lovely group of streamers on the Together for Pride shelf for an entire year!! your favorite queer Black Latina might be on the front page over the next year 🥺 feeling incredibly blessed :,)
They make us laugh til we cry, help us style our wigs, and dole out the hottest of takes, but most of all LGBTQIA+ streamers build authentic and welcoming communities.
Join us in celebrating
#Pride
all year long by tuning in to the featured streamers on the homepage.
happy monday!! i’m back from my lil socials break and will be returning to stream tonight at 6 PM Pacific with my BHM reading stream. during my break i also got some exciting news! i’m now part of the
@Twitch
Black guild and i’m truly so honored :,) this year is really mine 🥹🤍
my thoughts are with every single person in the path of Hurricane Milton and still dealing with the damage from Hurricane Helene. climate crisis is terrifying and disproportionately affects poor marginalized communities (mostly of BIPOC). i’ll try to share resources i see 🤍
thank you for 700 followers here!! if you’re new here, my name is bri and i’m a queer, disabled Black Latina from California 🫶🏼 i hope to make some new connections with you all 🤍
i'm collabing with a team of Black streamers in a BHM reader's raid train! our goal is to highlight Black authors, streamers, poets, and other creatives. please join me TOMORROW, February 26, at 6 PM Pacific to read Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin 😊 hope to see y'all there 🤍
also if you know a streamer who relies heavily on streaming and content creation for income that’s participating in today’s strike please consider donating to them in whatever formats they have made available! these are the times where mutual aid can be vital 🤍
i said this on stream but i also wanna say it here. i stand in full support of anyone speaking up about the last few days at tomorrow’s Latin Guild Town Hall. while i left due to feeling unsafe, please know that you have me in your corner and am only a dm away 🤍

@margabritaa

my name is bri (she/they) and i’m a queer black latina from california who loves cozy games just as much as rpgs and adventure games. if you don’t see me yapping on stream or social media, i’m probably napping instead
my twitchcon preferences!!
🌿 i will be masked and will not be removing my mask for pictures
🌿 i’m a BIG hugger and will do my best to ask before hugging hehe
🌿 i’m quite extroverted and i’m sure it can be overwhelming for some people lmao so pls feel free to tell me to chill
my twitchcon preferences!
✨ i won’t be interacting w/ people without a mask
✨ ask before a hug, im a huge hugger so ill probably say yes but please ask
✨ use they/them pronouns
✨ i easily get overstimulated so please don’t comment on being quiet
✨ ill be with my girlfriend
aomame (ah-oh-mah-meh), japanese for green peas (青豆)
after owning this game since its launch, i’ve finally finished an island 🥹 inspired by my favorite murakami book, aomame is an autumnal rural/slightly coastal japanese village. enjoy your visit!

i’m never going to claim i’m the perfect person or ally/advocate. mistakes happen of course. but one thing i’ve learned is that the inability to take accountability for your mistakes not only hinders your own growth but harms those around you
sign the petition for Pronoun Options for Trans and Non-Binary Players in Stardew Valley! i’m not a stardew player but i care about inclusivity in gaming and supporting the trans and nonbinary community 🤍
happy wednesday!! this month has already been so wonderful. i’m excited to announce that i’ve been accepted to my first stream team and unity guild!! ya girl is now part of The Great Elders and the Twitch Latin Guild 🇲🇽🥹 i’m beyond humbled and honored 🤍
good morning! feeling much better after some rest and time offline :3
i will give one last acknowledgment about the situation with Beni: people make mistakes and should absolutely be given room to be held accountable and grow. but we can’t give that space if-
throughout all of this, the only thing that bothers me is that i've received a very harmful response and that i'm being blocked by white people and BIPOC alike that feel that i was "attacking" someone when quite literally nothing i said was an attack :D
we did it 🥹 we hit 900 followers on twitch yesterday! thank you to everyone who’s followed and supported over the last 9 months.
the road to 1k starts now 🤍
started out pride month with an incredible charity event and reaching 1K followers on twitch 🥹 i am so grateful for everyone who’s been here like i just have no words for how i’m feeling rn
i have some super exciting news!! i've been invited to co-stream the next Wholesome Direct 🥹 i've been watching since the very first one and it's surreal to be on the other end.
join me on Saturday, June 8 at 9 am PT / 12 pm ET while we take a look at some upcoming cozy games!
