I told myself and prepared myself for first time denial. Much to my surprise, we got it first try. I am so unbelievably grateful for my community and for all of the love and support you all show me. Without you, this wouldn’t have been possible. Thank you 🥹 TWITCH PARTNER BABY!!
@AlmtyChcknPoo@girlfromthecave You know what’s fucking crazy is like… boatswains were made to spread positivity and create community but I would say 98% of the player base had no fucking idea what a boatswain was 😂 like if that doesn’t scream exclusivity and not working as intended…
@AlmtyChcknPoo@girlfromthecave I do hope Rare realizes it wasn’t a bad apple, but a bad orchard- that they planted. The abuse was committed by one, but the power to commit with, the setting to commit within, and the ability to continue to commit while be ignored were all due to contributions of Rare/CMs/swains
@AlmtyChcknPoo@girlfromthecave Then you mix that with a moat of inaccessibility, a group of people on the inside who have a friend who “is a Rare employee, they have power, don’t disrespect them,” and now they also feel like they too have some of that power, and boom: grounds for power to be abused are created
@AlmtyChcknPoo@girlfromthecave But on a serious note it was pretty defining (to me) of her belief of what her position meant. “I’m a Rare employee, I have power, don’t disrespect me.” She absolutely should have gotten flamed for that because it wasn’t just embarrassing, it was problematic.
@EdgarONealWX@MaxVelocityWX@WxFront With the current price of gas, it’s bananas that this many can even afford to chase in the first place; let alone contribute to the storm chaser-chasers, clogging dirt roads that were never meant to see this volume of vehicles 😬
Guess who is DONE WITH CHEMO!? Next stop, getting chopped in the body shop, surgery is only a month away 🥲 so anyways, …FUCK CANCER me and all my homies HATE that lame shit, learn to actually fight before you pick a bad bitch who will kick your ass, STOOPIT
I’ve been using a non-nicotine vape for almost a half a year now and I still want to pull my hair out every day with how badly I crave nicotine. Luckily I don’t have any hair to pull out but if I did
I cannot thank @Coppertailwolf , her community and @MrBadBit enough. In June I’ll undergo an 11hr surgery that will take me awhile to recover from- a Steam Deck ensures I’ll be able to recover from bed while still able to comfortably game. Thank you 🥹 I’ll stop crying soon 😭❤️
While I’m sad to see my SteamDeck go…
I’m so happy to be sending my SteamDeck to its very deserving new home!
Hoping @KellyShmo rests easy and plays some cozy games with it! 💙
Thank you to everyone who contributed to our lovely @KellyShmo comfort campaign! We have a steam deck for her!❤️❤️❤️ @MrBadBit reached out and gave us a great deal on one and he is shipping it tomorrow!
we will be picking up the campaign again in June for anything else she may need during her recovery.
I cannot thank yall enough for your generosity and I’m so excited we as a community are able to give her this! 🖤
🎮It’s not just about gaming, it’s a distraction from a tough reality, a way to connect with friends, and a sense of normalcy. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
I have a campaign live now and we are about halfway to our first goal to get @KellyShmo a steam deck! Kelly has stage 3 breast cancer and is undergoing treatment, chemo and a procedure in June. (THIS IS NOT FOR MEDICAL)-- Everything donated goes towards first getting her a @valvesoftware@OnDeck Steam Deck so she can play her comfort games during chemo, at home feeling sick after chemo, and post major surgery recovery in June.
🚨(If you saw my previous post about a very generous human getting her one himself from ebay- he ended up getting scammed. He was refunded and donated the money already to the campaign like the angel he is!)🚨
This is all fundraising by gamers, for a gamer going through hell and needing a distraction!
Anything raised after the steam deck can be ordered will go directly to Kelly for other comforts she may need (battery packs, games, a fluffy blanket if she wants it- anything that brings joy or comfort during this very difficult battle).
I will be posting regular updates, along with shouting out people who have contributed.

Does anyone have or know someone that has a Steam Deck that they either don't use or would be willing to donate?
As many of you know our @SeaOfThieves Sister, @KellyShmo is in her battle against cancer right now. (fuck cancer) and is in need of a mental escape, especially in the midst of her up coming surgery and recovery.
I'm planning to run a fundraising event soon, however the Steam Decks are sold out everywhere so finding one is the first step! so if you are looking to sell or donate yours please dm me. ❤️
Cancer sucks. Everyone deserves to have a break to distract from their reality when that reality is difficult to manage. Would love to see this community come together to provide something that brought us all together in the first place- gaming.
Kelly is a gem in this community and others. She's provided years of streaming and content creation to this community and is one of the sweetest, strongest, and genuine people I (and many others) know. Lets rally behind her 🫶
So someone in my building took my food delivery from Pink Ribbon Good. I thought about going door to door, but maybe they needed it more than me and I’m sure the karmic standing for stealing cancer food isn’t great 😂
Update: I’m bald as hell and Pig finally had surgery and is already doing so much better 🥹
Last shitty chemo infusion is Tuesday 🙌🏻 although tbf I’ll miss being a cue ball a little bit, my showers are considerably shorter without ass-length hair
