Hey friends, there's not going to be a stream today. I had a pretty severe allergic reaction last night and am still recovering. I'm so sorry y'all - I hate having to cancel. At the very least, I'll try to get this week's streaming schedule posted later today.
#Vtubers: I know Vgen exists, but it's super overwhelming. Sometime down the road, I'd like to commission an artist to create a Vtube Studio asset that would allow my model to hold 3 cats in my arms. Does anyone have any recommendations for artists I should look up?
My biggest advice to any starting vtuber or streamer..
Do it for the love of the game. If you are having fun, people will see it and support will come eventually ❤️
I want to give a shoutout to @nukaknights for producing the best/most useful Fallout 76 website in existence. I probably visit your site daily. Thank you for all that you do!
@NyxyFirefly I'm so sorry you're going through all of that - that's so much stress at one time. I hope your kitty feels better. Sending you good vibes 🫂
Guesswhatguesswhatguesswhat!! I got my Twitch Affiliate email today! I never expected the support I've received since I started streaming last Monday. Thank you all so much! You've made this woodland critter very happy!
@BedeeliaVT If my mental health is truly bad, I'll cancel the stream, and I'm very open with my community about what's going on (usually through Discord where strangers won't be lurking). If it's a day where I'm kinda down but not totally, I'll push through at least an hour of streaming.
I got my first bullying comment today 🤣. Some of the best advice I got before starting to stream was to have a zero-tolerance policy on trolls and bullies. How do y'all handle unsavory commenters?
Hey friends. I'm so sorry, but I won't be able to stream tonight. My baby girl kitty has bronchitis and is going to be ok with medication, but she still doesn't fill good and I want to be close to her to monitor her. Thank you so much for understanding.
@BlaineThePainTV I thing it's great to befriend other content creators! Sure, not everyone is going to vibe, but it's a great way to share experiences and knowledge!
Never forget the first time you went live.
Never forget your first follower
Never forget your first tip/dono.
Never forget your first fanart.
Never forget why you started Vtubing.
@FreyaNyamira Not good with things like editing, but I've spent almost six weeks setting things up for my premier tomorrow. Some people might be doing the same and learning skills like video editing prior to going live
I wish there were more hours in the day. Two of my favorite hobbies are reading and gaming, but it always feels like one of them has to take a back seat. I wanna do both!
i mean this in the kindest way possible— i’m begging vtubers to gain a crumb of financial literacy.
😭
please use a business bank account.
please put your savings and money you put aside for taxes and your extra business reinvestment money into high yield savings accounts.
put aside money for taxes.
give yourself a monthly budget.
you will not survive the kind of rollercoaster that is your income as a content creator if you’re not helping yourself. it’s literally the only way i’ve been able to continue this job for six years despite being very small and going through MANY big emergencies without having to beg for donos every single month some years.
for the love of christ save for and open a retirement account (i don’t care how old you are, start right now.)
