Never mind
Stream is cancelled
I think this is the final sign that streaming just isn't something I get to do with enough consistency to be worth it
Due to my job, I lack sufficient time to prep in advance, & my personal life doesn't allow me time to stream on weekends anymore
Today at 7 pm EST, I'm playing Gran Turismo 7 on the Purple & Red sites
If enough people come by, I'll create a stream lobby to play with viewers
I want to do more playing with viewers, as used to be a mainstay of my streams.
So, I need your support to make that a reality again

@UmariTomoe That's just the internet
If it isn't painfully obvious/dumbed down to the extent that its no longer a joke, somebody WILL take it in bad faith & attack you for it.
Same applies to opinions, conclusive statements, etc.
Social media is where comedy, nuance, & intellect go to die
@LadyKnightLynk Of course they're valid
My only problem is when someone treats feelings as MORE valid than facts
But to be able to realize when oneself has become emotionally-charged & take a step back shows emotional maturity.
If more people were like you, the internet would be a nicer place
@LadyKnightLynk I'd call that 'sensitive but sensible'
Having the self-awareness to take a step back, analyze, & cool down before addressing an issue is commendable & an increasingly rare ability among people in generalπ
Many just get offended & are unwilling/unable to see past their feelings
@rebeca828ss@mikuryne Agreed
I was a vtuber for nearly 4 years &, since I'm a man who refused to do NSFW, BFE, or fujo-bait & lacked the connections & resources to do anything truly unique with the medium, there's no way I'd ever be "accepted" within the scene
So I cut my losses & became faceless
@LadyKnightLynk I've known women with similar backgrounds.
Tend to be the most pleasant women to be friends with.
Its sad how many women don't/refuse to understand that if you're simply nice, upfront about your boundaries, & NOT oversensitive, most men will respect them.
@nekaishi Facts
I tried for 4 years without a high-quality avatar, major connections, or the resources to take advantage of the medium. Plus additional debuff for my refusal to do NSFW, BFE, or fujo-bait
My solution was to go voice-only.
I'm still small, but being male isn't a big factor
@Its_Annahere Sadly, that's a rare trait among artists who draw anime-styled characters. Especially vtuber-related artists.
So, because of the sheer amount who don't/won't draw male characters, that question becomes mandatory.
@LilacIllust@eatingthedog@RimaEvenstar That's just what being a man is like, in general
Acknowledged & wanted when we're useful or profitable.
Otherwise ignored or derided
Demonstrated by how Holostars is treated by Cover & most Hololive talents, & how the audience majority hate or are disinterested in male vtubers
@ma_fe79 It really makes F1 look less like the 'pinnacle of motorsport', compared to classes where hard racing is the norm and less often penalized.
Like Indycar, NASCAR, Supercars, Touring Cars, MX-5 Cup, etc.
I'm trying to gather info, in order to help determine how I'll proceed in my weekly streams.
I'd appreciate as many votes as possible.

@Joseph117662730 @TypicalGamer@Fortnite Never heard of him, but I see.
He would look very generic as a character skin, though.
I think a skin is only valuable if the design is unique, & agency vtubers are unique by design.
They hire professional character designers & artists to craft their appearances, after all.
@GamerKittyEupho@grok You've made this about a lot more than it needs to be &, because you're demonstrating yourself to be highly unreasonable, I'm just going to block & move on with my life.
If nothing else, this exchange gives me even deeper appreciation of my wife for being so different than this
@GamerKittyEupho@grok Negative generalizations of women are ALSO something I condemn to equal measure.
If I were to follow your example, I would use my own personal experiences & observations to negatively generalize all women. But I don't & won't because its morally wrong to do so.
@GamerKittyEupho Everyone should be careful out there
And I understand needing to be cautious of the opposite sex because innocent men are most at risk of conviction for crimes they didn't commit if the accuser us a woman, even without evidence
Also, a man explaning something is cause for fear?
