Physically here. Mentally still at Rockville

@CSustins Thank you!!

These two images were taken by @astro_reid only minutes apart. The stark difference is the result of camera settings. In the first, a longer shutter speed let in much more light from Earth, while the shorter shutter speed in the second emphasizes our planet's nighttime glow.

I'm bawling!!!

To the moon!!

[MsGolightly ✨️ @TheMsGolightly]

Watching this in real time as a huge space nerd, filled my soul!!! Cried my eyes out.

Liftoff.

The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

[MsGolightly ✨️ @TheMsGolightly]

My view for the Artemis II launch.

With booze!

No stream tonight, obviously!

@ladydesiree Working in an antique store these past 2 years, there is a huge push back for physical media. We can't keep up. DVD, cassette and cd sales are getting on par with vinyl and vhs.

@uhmaayyze This is why when I came back from my break, I went to Twitch. As a community driven creator, it's been a vibe. I'm happier. My community is highly engaged. Kick lost that somewhere along the way.

[MsGolightly ✨️ @TheMsGolightly]

I asked my community when I decided to come back which platform they preferred as a viewer. It's Twitch by a landslide. Even w/ ads.

A few bucks an hour isn't enticing enough to stream or multistream on Kick right now for me. Chat has been far more engaging on Twitch by far.

[Uhmaayyze @uhmaayyze]

The experience as of lately with Kick.

I love the platform but what I feel about the platform is just results as of lately.

- No clear path to growth.

- No strong discovery tools

- Contracts favor top creators, not grinders

- Mid creators feel stuck or invisible

- Chat often dead unless you’re already big.

- raids, hype culture not the same as Twitch.

- Hard to feel alive as a viewer watching as a creator.

- Viewers don’t build habits they leave.

- Follow for Follow.

- Tab for Tab.

Twitch = community + emotes + culture.

YouTube = content + longevity.

TikTok = virality

Kick = ??? You get what I mean?

Right now it feels like a place where big streamers stream instead of a culture.

Yes, creators get paid which is a game changer for creators but Viewers don’t feel rewarded/engaged.

No strong loyalty systems.

No reason to stay vs just watch clips elsewhere.

It becomes transactional, not community driven.

All love at the end of the day but just opinions.

@Novacourt 👀

[MsGolightly ✨️ @TheMsGolightly]

I'm gonna fuck around and fire up a twitch stream tonight for the first time in 3 years. Ya know, to see how it feels...

[MsGolightly ✨️ @TheMsGolightly]

@LeashWiz It has! Crazy to think my last stream there was a birthday stream before the move to Kick.

[MsGolightly ✨️ @TheMsGolightly]

@Edit0rial I know 🥲
