1 month ago, I announced my indefinite hiatus. 5 days ago, my 4th streaming anniversary came and went. It's a strange feeling, but maybe it's for the best that I missed that important day. But! Here's a little celebration for the occasion! And within the next two weeks, another will follow!

Giant Fucking Skeleton is available now on the eShop for the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 Systems!

I cried watching One Piece today and I started watching Totally Not Mark's review of every arc of the manga up to where I last left off (which is Dressrosa)... I think a seedling might be starting to stir inside my soul again. Little by little.

It was... an experience.

I'm on @boggosix.bsky.social's stream playing Super Battle Golf. I'm likely not going to be saying much, but I thought I'd let y'all know! www.twitch.tv/boggosix

I've been thinking of quitting a lot. I don't WANT to, but there IS a fundamental problem at hand that I need to attend to. Some manner of hiatus is inevitable. If my work has meant something to you, please help me orient myself in the coming times by taking this survey. forms.gle/qXMzxqU3DjcT...

Heads-up: Sunday stream might be the last stream before I go on an indefinite hiatus.

It's been almost a year since our last mental health study stream. Let's pick "Factfulness" back up and learn that the world might not be as hopeless as it feels. youtube.com/live/8LBc-Dg... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

Study stream will be pushed to Saturday for sleepy brain reasons. Sorry! Hopefully brain will cooperate more tomorrow.

#InStarsAndTime is already an amazing story. Can't wait for nothing bad to happen to these lovable goofballs! Big hugs to our raiders @blehgopie.bsky.social, Destyen, @kinthenardoragon.bsky.social and @lolliedew.bsky.social and raidee @littlefaerii.bsky.social! (Isabeau was my favorite to voice!)

Introspective Art was an experience as ever. To give shape to what we struggle with, and confront it. Where would we be now if we didn't fight like this? Big hugs to our raider @rayrabenstein.bsky.social and our raidee @kinthenardoragon.bsky.social! The subject was "the shape of my depression."

Let's experience the beautiful "In Stars and Time" and perhaps refind our passion for voice-acting in the process youtube.com/live/0qJkHef... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

My tummy hort but... Let's try our best to fill this week with beautiful and meaningful things. I'll start playing the beautiful "In Stars and Time" (with voice-acting and all), and we'll try to finally return to mental health study streams with Hans Roslin's "Factfulness". (TIME CHANGE ON SUNDAY)

@teiyuvt.bsky.social :3

It's been a week. How has it treated you? What have you done with it? Are you up for a round of Introspective Art? youtube.com/live/PMPUViY... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

Finally, catching up with IA last Sunday. It was the day when I ultimately decided to take a small break. It's good to keep moving, but you have to make sure every once in a while if you're actually facing the right direction. Big hugs to our raidee @accidantey.bsky.social!

Catching up more! Drawing a new thumbs up emote was a struggle. But we did it, and what is art if not struggling? (... many things, actually.) No raids this time, but big hugs to our raidee @halcyonframe.bsky.social! PS: I think I was really on to something in this clip.

Catching up! 7 days ago, Animal Well kicked my ass one last time for 7 hours straight! It was painful, but I don't want it to be over.. Big hugs to our raiders @blehgopie.bsky.social and @averagegoatman.bsky.social (two goats!). We sent the love to @thegourdie.bsky.social! (Minor spoiler warning!)

I hate microblogging sites like this btw, how the heck does anyone express a thought with these character restrictions Bah! Bah I say! … might be time to finally use that tumblr account.

I mean heck, look at DBZA. It starts out as this ridiculous edgy parody where everyone is an idiot asshole, but when it came to adapting that scene in the gif? Not a shred of irony, but a genuine cover of the insert song instead. An exceedingly “uncool” song oozing with sincerity and pensiveness.

It just occurred to me that the reason why Dragon Ball Z caught on so hard was because it was about not just men being powerful, but men being powerful while screaming and even crying. That’s where all the Linkin Park AMVs come from: It was teen boys’ first role model for expressing their emotions.

see? here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

Very happy with my piece for art therapy today. The subject was “space between.” (Check the alt text for a description and some of the thoughts that went into it!)

This week's a little different. I'm on a sort of 7 day break to try and get some of my stuff in order. And also you're invited! I invite you to join me in using this week to DO THING! One thing! Find one thing to do to improve your life! Then tell me all about your accomplishments on Sunday!

The tech behind this knows if the tab is asleep. In *theory* (and from some VERY quick testing myself) people can avoid this issue by adding twitch to this the "always keep these sites active" setting in Chromium browsers.

PSA for all twitch lurkers: You can stop these scummy ads from happening by disabling the page visibility API. Here's the extension i use for it :3 Chrome-Based browsers: chromewebstore.google.com/detail/disab... Firefox: addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefo... #twitch

Things have been difficult lately for many of us, hasn't it? Maybe it's time to take a break and breathe. (Introspective Art time.) youtube.com/live/fohyxcz... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

WE GOT TWITCH PARTNER!! Thank you so much everyone for your support during the partner push!! I can't tell you how much it means to me 🥹 🧡 I'm excited to use this checkmark in the name of science (only in ways approved by the ethics committee I swear)

Gonna be drawing a thumbs up and maybe some other stuff! We'll see where life takes us! It's a mystery...! youtube.com/live/7RHS96p... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

I've got a bunch of new leads on where to go next in Animal Well. Will we be able to find a satisfying conclusion to the mysteries of the deep? youtube.com/live/qzxzKbr... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

It's that time of the year again! Some places have already changed to summer time and others haven't, so make sure you don't get mixed up! (I'm still the same!) The Discord server is a great place to stay on top of current schedules btw. And within the next 2 hours we'll watch Beastars there, too!

That stream was more healing than I could ever have expected... Thank you to my raiders @justcalibrating.bsky.social and neil_amblom127, all those who shared the going live post and all of you who made me feel heard. (And shoutouts to our raidee @relyable.bsky.social!) The subject was "What am I?"

Low-energy surprise stream, Slaying 2 Spires! 🔪 www.twitch.tv/oozeyoozebou...

This might be a rough one, but if we don't learn to talk about our feelings at some point, then... well that's not good, is it? Introspective Art time. youtube.com/live/3PIwcM6... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

ANIMAL WELL is a great game that was produced specifically to torment me. (Big hugs to our raiders pikkozoikum, @acissye.bsky.social, @eviecakes.bsky.social, @harutorecorder.bsky.social and @ninfy.gremgang.com! We sent the love to @f3tzi.bsky.social!) (Mild spoiler warning!)

Oh... so this is why they put the kangaroo on the box art... o_o Big hugs to our raiders @blehgopie.bsky.social, BEAST_666x, @melancholy.vtubers.social, mrdylangray and glmdgrielson! We sent the love to @kolibrivt.bsky.social! (Mild spoiler warning for ANIMAL WELL!)

Okay so this game kicked my butt a bit last time, but we'll find our way out of this Animal Well yet! youtube.com/live/VnMRqOu... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

8 days ago we played Sheepo! (All of it!) It's cool to see the start of that Kyle Thompson charm without the polish of his later games! Big hugs to our raiders @blehgopie.bsky.social, @ponponthedreambun.bsky.social and @mawiapocalypse.bsky.social! We sent the love to @hesper.positivt.space!

11 days ago we painted on the subject of "internalized thoughts!" It's one of the more high-concept subjects we've had, and some fascinating thoughts have come from it! I feel like I grew from this one. Big hugs again to @napsinner.bsky.social! We sent the love to @sagikiihori.bsky.social!

Well well well, it's Animal Well. I have no idea what to expect! Let's go! youtube.com/live/aDQO4Ai... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

I'M ALIVE... arguably! I really wanted to draw some emotes, but my brain is struggling so much I'm worried about it. So we're back to more Metroidvanias! I know like nothing about Animal Well except that it's supposed to be extremely good and interesting, so! Let's go!

I just watched Drifting Home, and, my god. I cried so much I was basically a raisin by the end. I should have come off antidepressants so much earlier. The emotions I hadn't fully felt all these years are starting to rush in.

i slept for like 4.5 hours after the stream and then i had guests over all next day help

I'M ALIVE! Big hugs to all our guests, all who joined the canvas, our raiders @techierob.bsky.social, @ylfasmoll.com, @azenzeph.bsky.social, @subaphoenix.bsky.social, @fenryka.bsky.social, @kinthenardoragon.bsky.social and GearTwister_, and raidee @naeniaselanyx.bsky.social! and everyone else aaaa

I overslept a little, and we've had a "casualty", but. That's life. We keep moving. It's happening. We're celebrating life! youtube.com/live/vpBi2W5... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

LESS THAN TWO DAYS TILL BIRTHDAY STREAM! Look at all these goobers! I can't even put them all in one post! So you know what, I won't! Check the replies on this post to learn more about all these beautiful people and get the deets on our timetable!

I'm still not quite there but you know what, heck it. Time for Sheepo! Let's beat this whole game, right here, right now! youtube.com/live/KSNgTeq... www.twitch.tv/teiyuthegoatvt

🌱BIRTHDAY WEEK🐐 Only two streams because I'll be busy preparing for two days of partying, but it'll be two big ones! We're finally doing the whole game of Sheepo on Wednesday! And then, birthday stream on Saturday! With lots of guests, and a Magma canvas! More details to come soon!
