My lovely friend Fatal is hosting a Call to Arms Charity event this Sunday! It would be great if you could help share this around and spread the word. I'll be joining for the REPO section of this event! I'm super excited!

Join me, Chaos, and Flames as we navigate the new update and try to get all the cosmetics! @chaosmafiosavt.bsky.social @flamesofgrace.bsky.social Streaming here (and on their accounts): www.twitch.tv/voidstarrvt

I keep struggling with the decision- stream or not? I've been feeling sick and frustrated by decisions with my medical insurance (still being dicked around), and back and forth about meds costs and whatnot. I should stream, the passive income helps, but I'm not my best. Not being at my best and <c>

Today at 6pm EST, I'm going to be opening up about stuff that happened in 2025, a sorta plan for the future, and working on some simple art things for my day job. I think I'm finally ready to address most of it. I just wanna be honest about why I shut down and pulled away.

The 22nd was my birthday, and I'm very grateful to have all the friends I do that helped make it special and wonderful. Things have been pretty rough lately, but I'm grateful to know so many wonderful and caring people that make up for the bad eggs in life.

WIP piece I've been focusing on today. Slowly getting over being sick, trying to transfer all projects to CSP to get them finished, Slowly working through my project list between medical stuff and getting the house in order. 💪

For Halloween, I did some drawings of my fem and masc forms in outfits I "borrowed" from friends. I have a couple more to work on as energy/time allows, but I was happy with how these turned out. Fem Void in Flames of Grace's usual attire, and Masc Void in my dear friend Vivi's former outfit.

Same! As a space themed Vtuber, I've used that emoji since the beginning of my streaming "career" back in 2022. I like to sparkle. AI can't have it.

The last couple weeks have been isolating. HVAC still dead (hopefully being replaced tomorrow🤞), storms, 97F heat plus humidity, toxic housemate making it so I can't have conversations outside my office, the heat causing me to need to keep my PC off and avoid my office- stay upstairs in AC -

Yeah... can't give a lot of answers atm due to exhaustion and still needing to talk to my doctors, but I'm going back on medical hiatus earlier than planned and I don't know when it'll be done. Today was a LOT. x.com/VoidStarrvtu...

My little void jellyfish I drew last year. Digital art practice in Clip Studio using base brushes.

Been having some vision issues with the new meds, but wanted to try some sketch practice for the first time in a few months. Pencil on paper. He is my muse, my confidant, my guiding light. I'm thankful every day for finding Lystliss. 💙

I've been trying my best, but I don't want my content to become negative and constantly be me fighting a low energy state to be entertaining. So... I'll see you all around in whatever capacity I can give for the time being.

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️ toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf

Today is one of those days where it feels like being punished for doing everything right (medically), and it doesn't get any easier. Today has been difficult. It's allowed to be difficult. Life is difficult, as is dealing with medical issues. I give myself permission to rest and try again later.

I am grateful to those who showed up, asked questions, showed support, and are just generally awesome. Thank you for being my beautiful stars. ✨💙 We sent everyone over to watch/play Minecraft with Sol when we were done. I hope you all have a restful rest of your timezone!

In about 30min, I'll be live! Come join me and learn a little, chat a little. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey- whether on stream or behind the scenes. It means the world to me! ✨ twitch.tv/voidstarrofficial

Tonight at 8pm EST, I'll be starting my "Into the Void" series! Tonight's episode will be the catalyst for what I've been working towards organizing and using streaming to do: use my experiences to help others going through similar and shedding light on chronic illness. 💙✨

Today I got a diagnosis of NCS- Neurocardiogenic Reflex Syncope. Basically, my heart rate and blood pressure bottom out to the point my heart can stop and it causes me to black out. I have a name for one of the primary issues I've had for YEARS that so many ignored as made up or me overexaggerating!

Life update: Several more medical appts to go. Slowly ruling out some things, getting confirmation on others. Still dealing with house issues and toxic housemate(s) (stealing from me again and thinking I haven't noticed, leaking pipes, HVAC still broken, etc). I'm still alive but very drained.

We're entering into chaos tonight with @chaosmafiosavt.bsky.social and @flamesofgrace.bsky.social How far will we get? Who dies first? Who has to clear the maps on their own because the rest of us were goobers? We'll find out! Aiming to start around 7pm EST

One of my favorite skebs I did on sticker paper of me and a friend as a little Christmas gift. (I was still learning how I wanted to draw myself with the wispy space hair XD) Colored pencils and outline pen on sticker paper

A vent comic I did last year about a small few of the symptoms I experience with my chronic conditions. Maybe others can relate. Part 1:

Explain your lore but poorly: Gluttonous space entity disowned by family and shot across the universe to crash land on Earth only to discover sugar and cute things, proceeds to develop an addiction, and sometimes makes friends along the way who encourage said addiction.

I don't see a lot of people discussing the fatigue and burnout with seeking a diagnosis (or new diagnosis) and how incredibly overwhelming it can be with all the back-to-back appointments and constant barrage of tests. Be kind to yourselves and take breaks as needed. I'll be doing the same ✨💙

I have survived my work event and am still recovering from lung issues with Covid (not contagious, thankfully). Going to enjoy relaxing as much as I can around the new round of doctor visits the next few weeks and try to get back to streaming as able. I've missed everyone! ✨🎉

I am no longer feverish or contagious. Still having breathing issues. I won't be streaming for another week or two. Big work event next weekend and still need time to recover my voice. For now, I'm gonna enjoy the rain and eat all the cough drops! lol

"if I just work hard enough, eventually I'll make it" No. cause if you don't make it that means you didn't work hard enough. And that isn't fair to your efforts. there are so many factors outside of your hands. So much success is luck, and failure is not always your fault. cut yourself some slack.

Housemate brought Covid home... refuses to get tested or quarantine. So now I have it. 102°F fever, severe vertigo, severe joint pain, etc. and I have my big beginning-of-the-year work event in 2 weeks. Nothing is fully finished. Help... T_T

Get in goobers! We're gonna play more Roki 😊 twitch.tv/voidstarrofficial

I have been informed today is "Pie" day and it is a human tradition to acquire pie of some variety to consume. Behold my spoils! (I was hungry, I already ate some)

We 100% completed Behind the Frame! Lovely game! I really enjoyed it. We started Roki, and that was a LOT of fun (got too into it and did a WAY longer stream than intended). Looking forward to picking it back up next solo stream. Finally, my friend SolHeliosOne also raided over! Goodnight stars!✨

We didn't do the DLC, stars! So wrapping this up today and playing a couple other new-to-me games. Hope to see you there! twitch.tv/voidstarrofficial

I am feeling incredibly sick today (chronic stuff flaring up) and kindly request your cutest photos. I was a good space bean and still got work done despite feeling awful. Please and thank you.

When the brain had a million different ideas going at once, but the body desires to potato for the day...

My partner, @lystliss.bsky.social is live and back to arting live for everyone! www.twitch.tv/lystliss

Playing a new cozy game if interested: www.twitch.tv/voidstarroff...

Saw my doctor today. Data backs up stuff I've been saying for a while. So now, I get to be put on a heart monitor and then we'll go from there. One step closer to another diagnosis and maybe not blacking out at random anymore (or at least not as often as it has been)! 🎉

Today's grind is listening to early to mid 2000's hits and grinding out some admin, display design, and product packaging design work for my day job. I have been awake since 5am. I wish I could have coffee lol

To the small handful of people who let me ramble on and on for hours upon hours about my day job/small business and the things that I'm excited about- Thank you. It means the world that you care enough to take an interest and sometimes help motivate me on difficult days. 💙✨

When people claim they love you- friend, family, romantic partner, etc.- then treat you like you're a burden or the problem when you're already feeling awful for being chronically ill and needing help? That's not actually love. Love isn't treating someone poorly for things out of their control.

Woke up at a decent time today, had to get some house chores/cleaning done. Tried to get some work for the day job done, but can't seem to stay awake at all. Looks like it's gonna be a self-care day for rest and listening to what the body needs.

I've been enjoying playing with the newest emote prototype- hugs. Made one for Lys and for myself. 😀 No hate to the OG design, but I like adding a bit of a personal touch where I can. ✨

1/2 I have friends who love me, who are willing to help me fight my inner demons and show me how much I mean to them- friends that want to see me smile and wish all the best things for me. Friends who stop by to wish me well even when overbooked, who make time to spend a whole day with me.

Thank you so much to these lovely people for sharing their communities with me for my birthday! And thank you to my lovely community and all the new members for spending your time with me! It was a lovely and joyous day. 🥰 I hope you all get rest, hydrate, and have a wonderful time zone! ✨💙

Happy birthday to me~! ✨💙 Omnomnomnom!

Success! I have dark cocoa Void cupcakes for my birthday tomorrow! (It has eyes bc the void stares back, get it? XD)
