And I'm live! Join me and whichever pet graces the camera for more #CivilizationVII! I am not sure if this game understands how stubborn I am to beat all the leaders.... Come be silly in chat so I don't ALWAYS talk to myself... twitch.tv/theoperageek

My parent's puppy Isla would like to let you know: 1) I am not the only singer in the family and 2) she would like to sing you the song of her people, "Variations On A Theme of My Squeaky Toy". @weratedogs.com, what is your opinion on this distinguished performance? #GreatDane

Hey, you. Yeah, you, the one reading this. I just hummed a song for you. You've got Bardic Inspiration. You can use that extra d12 for anything you need to conquer today. Do the thing. Start that project. Punch the sun. #OperaGeek #DnD #BardLife

And I'm live with my attempt at world domination via Xerxes! Sometimes I think Firaxis has it out for me with some of these starting seeds, but at LEAST I haven't had a settler killed by a volcano on turn 1 in #CivilizationVII..... Come join me! twitch.tv/theoperageek

In 12:30PM, join me as we meander back into our attempt at Xerxes (King of Kings). The game randomly gave me an archipelago map. I do not do well on an archipelago map. Still, on the final turn heading into exploration! Hope to see you in chat. twitch.tv/theoperageek

And I'm live with the second and third age of my Xerxes run in #CivilizationVII! I'm notoriously bad at military geard civs, so this could just be a comedy of errors. But you shall be entertained! Come join us in chat! twitch.tv/theoperageek

At noon, join me as we dive back into #CivilizationVII with the exploration age of Xerxes! Hopefully everything will be perfect and I will win with no problems. Like I ALWAYS do. /s See you then! Twitch.tv/theoperageek

And I'm live with the final age of my playthru as Machiavelli in #CivilizationVII! To the SHOCK of everyone, I got distracted and forgot to set up my camera. But don't worry - should they choose to grace us, the pet camera is fully working. Come join us! twitch.tv/theoperageek

In one hour, join me for the final age of our (randomly picked!) game as Machiavelli in #CivilizationVII! I'm sure I'll remember what my strategy was. ....won't I? Eep. twitch.tv/theoperageek

And I'm live! Come join me for a random pick of leader as I dive back into #CivilizationVII! I WILL beat them all, even if @FiraxisGames keeps adding them I VOW THIS anyway, come join me so I'm not talking to myself? twitch.tv/theoperageek

In 30 minutes! Join me (and any possible animal companions) as we dive back into #CivilizationVII! No, I don't know what Civ I'll be playing. I may just....RANDOM IT UNTIL I GET ONE I HAVEN'T DONE See you soon! twitch.tv/theoperageek

MULTI-PART STORYTIME: BEHOLD, AND ATTENTION, FOR I WILL NOW CREATE A DRAMATIC REENACTMENT OF YESTERDAY'S VISIT WITH THE ORTHOPEDIC SURGEON (same who did my left hip replacement in 2022): 1/4

Surprise! Decided to let the new video go live a day early. In my first episode back, I show how I created this piece for my Daggerheart games. I really hope y'all like this build! #ttrpg #Daggerheart #MattMercersAdequateStick youtu.be/INQchUSFPdA

Ghost jobs listings should be illegal. It's fraud. Full stop.

Back at my orthopedic surgeon to get a feel as to how much more decrepit my body has become These radiology bloomers they get you to wear are definitely.....something

Mansplaining in Icelandic is hrútskýring. This is a play on útskýring, which means explanation, while hrútur is a ram 🐑

The awkwardly hilarious moment I realized I was the same shade as the walls.... ...actually, I think I'm even paler. 🤣

Hey @theoperageek.com Have all the fun this weekend making the loudest of mouth noises.

...welp. 😳

*whispers* aw yiss

It has been a long time since I could say I was the sole singer at a gala concert (myself, a harpist, and pianist), but to get a notice that this weekend at The Sembrich Gala is sold out is...happy soprano feels. I shall make so many loud noises with my face! #OperaGeek #SopranoLife

*whisper* oh no #ADHD goblin brain had a wild new idea for sorting music so I can 'know what you have and make it easy' NO ONE WAS AROUND TO STOP ME AND NOW

Behold! My finished build for Saga: Blade of the Threadweaver! This piece is also a measurement tool for #Daggerheart combat. The video for this goes live for supporters next week, then will be up on YouTube September 5th!

And I am live finishing up my run as Genghis Khan in #CivilizationVII! I cannot promise kittens or doggo, but hey, we shall see. See you in chat! twitch.tv/theoperageek

At 12PM EST, join me for the final age of our Genghis Khan run in. #CivilizationVII! As I'm going into final prep mode for the concert on the 30, this will be the last stream till Sept. See you in chat! Twitch.tv/TheOperaGeek

My brother did not want to conga. My brother did not want to get picked to come onstage. So of course, I picked him to come onstage, as any good sister would.

The moment when you realize that your mom has pictures on her FB of you dressed for daily performance AND Halloween events...when you worked for Seaworld. @_@ Srsly I was probably the whitest girl singing gloria estefan this world has ever seen

So far, no dice. Seems Wi-Fi is working (but not reliable for OBS game streaming), but the broadband is toast atm. Only update I'm getting is 'this is usually resolved within 16 hours'. Argh.

Hedgehogs! Today's stream will start a tad earlier than usual so I can finish conquering the world before my rehearsal this afternoon. So come join me at 11:30AM EST for some more #CivilizationVII! twitch.tv/theoperageek

And I'm live, continuing in the Exploration Age with Genghis Khan! Come join me for my inevitable demise, but AMUSINGLY. twitch.tv/theoperageek

In about 20 minutes, join me (and whichever pet decides to be on camera) as we finish up playing Genghis Khan in #CivilizationVII! We were actually doing well as we headed into the Exploration Age, but...I probably just jinxed it. See you in chat! www.twitch.tv/theoperageek

And I'm live in an attempt to conquer the known world as Genghis Khan in #CivilizationVII! Listen, I never said I was GOOD at the new Civ. I just said I love PLAYING it. You get what you get.😅 See you in chat! twitch.tv/theoperageek

A few people reached out, so let me please say I'm ok. I didn't mean to alarm! In June/July we've had PJ being let go from his long time job; then my dear friend passing so suddenly; and finally, last Saturday, my car transmission giving out on the parkway. when it rains it pours?

It was a not great weekend on top of a not great two months so today I shall become Genghis Khan for (totally not my third restart) and try to conquer the known world in #CivilizationVII around 1PM! Let us go forth and conquer with my kitten at my side twicth.tv/theoperageek

INCOMING MESSAGE! Some of you probably guessed this, but here's the announcement vid for ya anyway! I'll see y'all this Autumn with new maker videos on YouTube. youtu.be/-KMTT2Yw3II?...

Alright, here's what Saige did to me. If you're a PoC you are not safe around her. The last THREE YEARS have been heartbreaking and soul-crushing, and I'm SO glad to finally be able to speak out publicly. I'm still at SDCC, so I may add more later: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/rcfsd...

And I'm live, doubling up on new #CivilizationVII content by trying my hand at both new leader Genghis Khan and civ Assyria! Come join me to see if I receive assistance from my Khajiit counselor or if she will just ignore me (As usual) See you in chat! twitch.tv/theoperageek

In (about) half an hour, join me as we take a little vacation from #OblivionRemastered and pop over to see some of the new #CivilizationVII updates! I'm sure they will only make me play better. ....right? Twitch.tv/theoperageek

What truly amazes me is the amount of people who suddenly pull the 'i've always been on your side' bullshit with someone as soon as it is convenient for them. The problem with that is that we all heard the silence that preceded your sudden 'friendship' and 'support'.

Spoke with Surena, checked in, and I’m only going to say a few things. (Even if she did say I can let the chopper sing) The only reason I’m saying anything is because while everyone wants to step away “until they have all the facts”, that didn’t stop many people from spreading the lies via texts.

And I'm live! Esme is still in her post-surgical onesie and feeling feisty about it, so I'm SURE this will go SUPER well with her on camera. Come join me in #Oblivion! twitch.tv/theoperageek

In about half an hour, join me as we continue climbing the latest #Oblivion tower! I'm sure it will be fine. I've never had a problem in combat. Its fine. twitch.tv/theoperageek

I AM VERY SMOL AND YOU CAN IMAGINE THE STRESS I AM UNDER SINCE MY HUMANS APPARENTLY CANT UNDERSTAND BASIC BORKS DO BETTER @theoperageek.com (Narrator: Scotty was, in fact, walked five minutes after this video was taken) #BeamMeUpScotty #RescueDogs

“Gods don't like people not doing much work. People who aren't busy all the time might start to think.” ― Terry Pratchett, Small Gods #Discworld (I personally believe 'gods' is interchangeable with 'governments' here.)

hauled ALL my tools to the office i'm in today to cut a cord drop, only to find my drill is dead and I don't have the charger and I spiked three cans of seltzer with a drill bit and they went spraying everywhere so i'm sure you can see the kind of day i'm having i see you all laughing at me, rude

And I'm live continuing on in my #Oblivion journey! I think we ended on me joining the thieves guild..... Come join me! twitch.tv/theoperageek

This is why I always cheat in those games to give me infinite carry weight. If they didn't want me to pick up 472 brooms they shouldn't have put them all over the place.
