First YouTube video in over 3 years is releasing tonight.

I still look at this Play Button every day above my desk and feel immense gratitude for you all deciding to join me in my goofy adventures.

Here's to the future! 🖤

On January 5th, an upstanding individual in my community was indefinitely suspended without warning or recourse for Harassment Via Username.

The horrendous handle in question? Barackobamallammadingdong. A name that he has used for nearly a decade.

Despite filing a support ticket and having the patience of a mossy stone, @TwitchSupport has completely ghosted his appeal process. They said he should log in with a temporary password to change his name; that did not work. They then said he should file a suspension appeal and then he could change his name; that also did not work. Then they simply stopped responding to his requests for assistance in making this right.

He had an 8 year sub streak to my channel. That is now gone because of the lack of punctuality of @Twitch and @TwitchSupport and their non-existent desire to make things right for a user who has never been actioned on Twitch before and incurred the wrath of the automated moderation system, and then found no mercy from any human willing to review his case.

I don't need to list the sorts of content you can find on Twitch by scrolling for a few moments. I don't need to list the controversies that other streamers have willfully walked into just to get a 7 day ban. How is this ok? How is this consistent? How is this just?

Mr. Ding Dong deserves to be unbanned and have all of his streaks restored to the handful of channels he supported.

Really hoping someone from the C-Suite can swoop down with a cape and right this wrong *cough* @djclancy999 *cough*

@composeralex_ Nearly went with Sibelius for my collegiate audition piece but decided on Saint Saens instead. If you want another banger, here's my fav performance of that piece 🎻

@Blurbstv Glad to hear everything is ok! Health is everything.

Spent my college fund in 2009 on 3 newly developed (at the time) surgeries to fix the wiring inside my heart. Life > college. Ended up at roughly 50k after my parents fought with insurance for a year. It is a dreadful system.

@Jacksepticeye Hey Sean, have had CTS in my left hand for 5 years now. Rice bucket workouts have been an indispensable tool for keeping flare-ups at bay.

Keep good shoulder posture while using the bucket. Pair it with a physical therapist for maximum improvement.

Hope this helps. GLHF gamer!

Spent New Year's Eve making a tier list of all the games I played in 2023 and I can't help but feel, once again, overwhelming gratitude for each of you that allow me to do this as a job.

Here's to 2024! ❤️🖤❤️

[BLacKHaLLoW @blackhallow]

Merry Christmas, friends! 🎄

I hope each of you find jubilation & purpose today, and spend time with those you hold dearest, even for only a moment.

Love to ALL! ❤️💚❤️

Last year, I decided to make a VODs channel as a Christmas surprise for the community.

I set a goal of 1,000 subscribers by the end of 2023.

Between this and my recap, I'm feeling very proud of what I accomplished this year, and humbled by the fact none of it would be possible without my community.

Thank you all so very much ❤️

[BLacKHaLLoW @blackhallow]

2023 ✅

Square up, 2024 💪

Feeling rather grateful today for such an obscenely generous & benevolent community.

Thank you all so very much ❤️

[BLacKHaLLoW @blackhallow]

@Blurbstv DUUUUUDE!!! Congratulations Blurbs! So damn happy for you!

happy bidet to me 🎉

Finished my second playthrough of Red Dead Redemption 2 last night.

I've got nearly 600 hours in story mode now. That game is nothing short of a masterpiece, and @rclark98's performance as Arthur is impeccable.

Thanks to everyone that came out and watched me play cowboy again for the week. RDR2 is very special to me and my community on Twitch. I can't wait until I find a reason to saddle up again. 🤠
