If you're a creator who:
-Takes long break periods
-Creates very slowly
-Has another full time job or engagement
-Struggles with productivity
-Is inconsistent
I'm sorry to tell you...
YOU'RE STILL A VALID CREATOR BECAUSE CREATING IS TIED TO PASSION, NOT PRODUCTIVITY 💜
150 MORE WHERE DO YOU PEOPLE KEEP COMING FROM
WHAT THE FUCK
I hope offline for a week and suddenly there's a hundred more of you?!?!
Uh, hi I guess? I start my first full time job Monday so we'll see how well this VTuber thing works out?
So a large coffee is great for uploading four fanfic chapters (AO3/Patreon) back to back, but the aftermath is starting & I am seeing through concrete walls.
Semi related, do you bluesky folks like MHA reader insert fanfic (All Might ship)/Baldur's Gate fanfic (Gale ship)? Should I link them?
I actually got a job offer. I kept applying just to appease The Overlord but I am waiting on onboarding emails right now.
On the one hand, thank fuck.
On the other hand? This makes the whole VTuber thing. A little harder.
Pre-cooking my mushrooms before adding them to my ramen may have been one of my better ideas lately
Turns out 2014 was boring as shit (in comparison to these days and the years surrounding it) for news and YouTube.
Tumblr stole all the action with... yknow...
Dashcon.
Pros of using screenshots of old news articles/video clips to expand on my backstory: less I have to animate for my debut video
Cons: I have to look at news articles
Quick note: voice mod isn't good.
No seriously, that's the note. A lot of the modulations are bad and can literally cause us migraines with long exposure. Being sound sensitive is awesome.
WHAT TO DO?
Well, let me give you a free option that might actually be fun for you.

Hello fellow #artists . We all agree this is a scam, right? #supportartists please be careful of these "people"
There is no way that this is exhaustive, but version 1 is complete nonetheless! A starter pack devoted to collecting Bluesky's Gender-nonconforming vtubers!
As before, feel free to let me know if you'd like to be added or removed from this list. ^^

Thank you so much! 😊
What a great list! Agender here, tack me on please!
PANEL 1: a crying pigeon sits to the right. another pigeon stands to the left, asking "what's wrong?" the sad pigeon says "i'm sad" PANEL 2: the left pigeon asks "how come?" and the sad pigeon replies "i dunno. i just am." PANEL 3: the left pigeon says "well, you could do yoga or have a smoothie or go for a run or..." PANEL 4: zoom-in on the sad pigeon. their eyes are red and they think "i know they mean well, but i don't want a solution...i just wanna be sad!!"

Disclaimer, I know we're all here to be friends and support each other so what I'm about to say is MOSTLY (partially) a joke, SOOO...
I've got 40 followers before I've even debuted, am I winning son?

Like, I've always been baffled by people using Nintendo music in their works. I don't care what Nintendo says is fair use with their music, I wouldn't trust them within ten feet of me.
Massive respect is owed to people who make copyright/royalty free music for folks to use in their projects. You're going to be the backbone of the internet as we know it when corpos get even more stingy about us of their audio.
To my ~39 followers that started following me after I started posting here regularly-- welcome! Here's my silly little intro video that also doubles as a "Comms Open" post.
Cakewalk! It's made by Bandlab and is free to use. I can't remember what a subscription nets you, but the free version should give access to everything you need.
I owe my life and my never-existent firstborn to the random downtown Starbucks patron who gave me the passcode to the bathroom
Tell artists you like their work. It’s how they stay filled with life-giving art mucous.
It's called jetpacking, yeah? That's what my friend and I call it at least 😂
I actually find it really easy to boycott things like Disney, McDonalds, Apple, Adobe, etc. There's better media, better food, better technology, & it's not hard to find.
And for those saying it's hard for financial reasons-- nearly every alternative I know of/use is cheaper. So no, that ain't it.
As content creators/influencers/streamers/what have you, I think you should always have fun with whatever you're making. Enjoy and learn and be creative. Everything that you do is always a success and never a failure as long as you have fun, and you learn from it. It's never truly ever a failure
A screenshot of the video editing program Davinci Resolve. The preview window contains an illustrated still of Dylawa, a monster-like VTuber. The lower portion of the screenshot contains several video and audio tracks.
VTuber Debut halfway-ish done! It looks like more, but there will be additional, more smoothly animated content after the voiceover (first audio track) ends (and, tbh, that may be the most time-consuming portion of this thing)

I really want all of us to succeed, even if we all have different goals
Some want to be big names so they can create content full time.
Others want to make a niche haven for those with their same particular interests.
Many just want their hard work recognized.
These are all valid destinations

Drawing of a kiwi-shaped bird with dark blue feathers, light blue beak and legs, and white starry markings. It's holding a flower in its beak. The background is dark blue, full of stars.
