As a reminder:
Vtubers are not your virtual fantasy girlfriend/boyfriend. You have no say over our love lives. Please keep the weird parasocial stuff to yourself.
If anything, our viewers hydrate us and watch as we slowly grow, so we're more like talking house plants.

I feel like the bear doesn't really know what he's doing but feels like he's helping and is trying his best, and that warms my heart.
@StephenKing
I would agree, Stephen, but for the fact that he would still be in the country. It's like feeling relief that a cockroach has disappeared from the kitchen and hidden itself in the basement. It's still lurking in the house somewhere.
@ML_Philosophy
The focus on greed, material gain, and competition. We survived as a species through cooperation, and somewhere along the way, we lost that, instead developing an insufferable rat race mentality. It’s no wonder we’re all stressed out and struggling to get by.
@ShigoDreadful
A relationship is never something to be owed. It happens naturally, with the full consent and desire of both parties involved. If the friend truly cares and values your friendship, they won’t press the matter.
@egoraptor
This reeks of one of those “everyone hated the change so we’re gonna backpedal and be like hahaha jk we were just testing out ideas” things that they seem so fond of doing.
Once, he was a slayer of gods - a force of apocalyptic destruction - until his eyes opened to the power of stories, and he received the Book of Worlds...
Now, he wanders the multiverse, seeking new stories, creating new worlds with ink and pen.
Come write a new tale with him...
@ML_Philosophy
How they treat the people who aren't useful to them.
Far too many people only help others if it also benefits themselves. True kindness and character means helping people with no expectation of reward - doing good for the sake of doing good.
@Mora_Kuma
Being held is one of the greatest feelings in the world, especially for someone whose life revolves around guiding, protecting, and safeguarding others. It’s nice to just lay down the proverbial sword and feel safe ;_;
@ML_Philosophy
It was one of the hardest things I ever did, but I didn't love them the same way, and couldn't see a future with them. I felt awful, for a long time afterward.
I have two more days with her.
It was a stroke.
I’ll take her on that walk I promised, around the yard she loves so much.
She gets all the chicken and belly rubs she wants.
I want “I love you, Harley” to be the last thing she remembers.
My heart is shattering.
@neilhimself
I've been saying it since I saw this thing - If an administrator ever tells me that I need an "opposing perspective" on the Holocaust, they're going to get the back of my hand opposing their face.
No one infects my students with mindless hate when I'm at the helm. No one.
Suggestion for schools:
Learn who your transgender students are, and put their real name on file rather than their given one.
That way, your substitutes don't look like assholes when they misgender them while reading unfamiliar names off an attendance sheet they've never seen.
Okay so, I've been fairly tight-lipped about this, but now that it's official and I've notified the fam about it, I can do so here, too...
I just got a major win.
I've been offered a fantastic new job, with benefits that will allow me to do a lot of things I couldn't before. 🧵
@ML_Philosophy
Peace is better than vengeance, introspection is better than comparison, kindness is better than pettiness, and meaningful conversation is better than shallow gossip.
A student got to the classroom before I did this morning, and accused me of being late.
I fired back with "A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."
The blank stare, full of loathing for my nerdiness, gave me such joy.
Got my first paycheck from the new job today…
I dropped it on my desk in shock, my jaw dropping similarly. Then I started laughing and crying at the same time.
My life is finally starting.
@moosukii
My mom once told me I should try being intimate with a girl in a graveyard, at least once in my life. I did not ask why she held this opinion, nor have we ever discussed the matter again ._.;;
Hecc it, something like this shouldn't wait.
Behold, my new "stream starting" screen! Lettering will be added later today.
Thank you so much to
@stas_li
for making this for me! You rock 💕

AAAAAAA THANK YOU, TRAVELERS 💜💜💜
It took over 2 years of blood, sweat, and comfy tears, but we finally hit 1k over on

!
I am so honored to have you all as part of our story, and I will absolutely do something special to celebrate this milestone!
@SurvivalR_VT
Normally, I do stay away from politics. This, however, is about basic human rights. It shouldn't be an issue for debate - It's just wrong, and should be called out as such. I'm so disappointed in my country right now.
Just a reminder:
“Exposure” doesn’t pay a content creator’s bills. It doesn’t put food on their table or get them new tools to advance their career.
To offer exposure as the only compensation is to take advantage of someone struggling to get by. It’s disgusting, and shameful.
Some streamers have abusive home lives.
Some are dealing with loss or other difficulties.
Some are harassed at work.
Some can’t walk down the street in safety.
So their channel is their safe place. To cross their boundaries and take that from them is vile.
Show respect.
All you new faces: It usually doesn't happen overnight, or even in the first year.
Love what you do, love the handful of folks who come to see you, and love the journey more than the destination. It'll make the results all the more satisfying ❤️

"Who am I? I've been known by many names, in many universes... but you can call me Kieran - your guide to the world of Nazorim and many others. Pleased to meet you, traveler."
At last, Kieran 3.0 is revealed!!!
Special thanks to

Just heard back in regard to the part-time gig...
I got it.
They're sending me a contract to review at the end of the week. If everything looks good, I'm officially on the payroll of a global education company.
@JesseCox
I’m lucky if I hit 10, and I’m proud of what I do. I paint models, read my writing, and provide a safe and comfortable space for my community. There’s nothing I’d rather be than a small candle in the darkness for them.
Some advice for new
#Vtubers
, from your wolf dad:
Be yourself.
When I started, I tried to be like the popular kids and do what everyone else did.
I hated who I was then.
When I focused on kindness and chased my passions, I finally found joy in what I do, numbers be damned 💜
@GamesIchika
Translation: "I have an unhealthy fixation fetishizing anime girls and it ruins my immersion when they act like real people, therefore I will pass judgment on them to avoid addressing my own issues."
@StephenKing
I would like to follow up by apologizing to any cockroaches out there who may have access to Twitter. It was not my intention to compare you to Trump, and I am deeply sorry by any offense that such an irresponsible statement has caused.
"W-Welcome home... oujosama..."
Thanks to the incomporable artistic skills of
@kyuzuki_89
, a fan favorite has achieved its ultimate form. Behold the majesty of Maid Kiekie, and know happiness.
Out of curiosity, I scanned some of the reposts from the person who galvanized so many of us into speaking out on this.
It’s mostly pics of anime girls, with occasional conspiracy theories, and transphobic/homophobic/misogynist/racist/incel BS.
Color me surprised.
Respect starts with you, and it starts by having it for yourself.
I'm a teacher. I see disrespect every day. Often in people who don't see the value in themselves, so that devaluing of the self spills over onto others.
Love yourself. Everything follows from there.
Pardon the slight deviation from my normal brand here...
Holy shit.
Thank you so much to all of the travelers who've reached out with birthday wishes... I wasn't looking forward to this one, but it turned out amazing in some unexpected ways 💜
Be good out there. I love you~
It's okay to start small. It's okay to stay small. Plateaus are normal, and at some point, you'll rise further. Gradual growth is healthy, and helps you prepare for the long-term.
You're doing great ❤️

Advice to fans... If you see flirtation directed at a Vtuber you like, coming from another Vtuber, check to see if they're friends before trying to insult the second one. My friends don't need a white knight. I respect them enough to know that they can protect themselves.
Never entered my DOB when I made this, so no balloons for me today :( Regardless, it's your wolf-sensei's birthday. Awoo.
My birthday wish? For no one to have their birthday start the way mine did today x_x
During an interview, the employer looked at my references and qualifications, and asked how the hell I hadn’t been scooped up yet.
It took every ounce of willpower not to cry, because I feel that way in my personal life, too, and don’t have an answer for either case 🥲
@JesseCox
At first, I hated him. Now I just feel bad. He doesn't seem to have any friends. Wait... *double checks the sh&t he's pulled* Okay, nevermind, still hate him.
Seriously though, if I were there, I'd have been laughing my ass off the whole time.
Pardon the slight break in my brand when I say this:
2023 was shit.
I was poor. I was sick. I was anxious and depressed. I got my heart broken. I was terrified for loved ones. I grieved. I was overlooked and forgotten by people I adored. I was stalked and harassed.
🧵
“They’re my other half” worries me. It implies you weren’t complete without them, which is a bad sign if something happens to the relationship.
Love isn’t about two halves making a whole. It’s 2 complete souls coming together, inspiring each other to become something greater.
@ML_Philosophy
It takes an incredible amount of self-discipline. And depending on the person, loneliness can set in very quickly, so it’s important to have a healthy routine and social outlet.
Want wholesome streamers to be more prominent? Lend them your support!
Clip them and interact with their social media. Help them get the exposure they need to reach a wider audience.
You don’t have to bash on creators who got popular with different kinds of content 💜
A word of advice to smaller Vtubers:
It's a long grind to get successful. 8 months in, I'm still light years from where I want to be. But you have to stay positive. It's okay to feel discouraged from time to time, but acting bitter becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. (1/2)
“These so-called victims are just clout chasing,” says the clout chasing shitstain trying to gain views by victim blaming in the wake of SA allegations.
They don’t even merit being named, for they deserve to be forgotten and fade into the obscurity their moral failure deserves.
Major depressive disorder sucks. It affects not only the mind, but the body as well.
If you know someone suffering from it, and they seem to be on the verge of improving… maybe don’t be sarcastic and cold, saying hurtful things to bring them down again.
It’s a bad time.
An interesting development, travelers... Y'know that interview I had last week?
I got the job.
Still working out the logistics, but it shouldn't affect streams *too* much. I may just shift them to slightly later, to give me time for paperwork and such. I'll keep you posted!
@KazumaVT
Young people are just jealous because they have to keep going all the way to the bathroom like peasants while we get to keep streaming in our Depends without the need for such a break.
Financially, I will be in great shape. I'll be able to take trips, fly friends in to see me, go to conventions, and afford all sorts of upgrades to my life and the channel over time.
It was a win I sorely needed, and it's been a decade in the making.
Last night's stream reminded me that I'm very much the third model. I need to not let that get to me, and focus on seeing these projects through.
I want to grow my community back, into something even bigger than it was, so we can do even more good for more people...
@ML_Philosophy
Yes and no. You can care for others regardless of how you feel about yourself, but if you lack any sort of self-love, it's very hard to receive affection, and it makes a healthy and long-lasting relationship extremely difficult.
@GennaBain
He hits the nail right on the head. Video games are such a waste of time. Like when I was suffering from depression and they provided an outlet for me. Or how I met amazing friends through a shared interest. Or drew inspiration for my novels from them. Such a waste.
One of the seniors just asked me to sign their yearbook…
1) I’m very emotional right now because I’m six years, this is the first time I’ve been asked to do so.
2) I legit almost signed it with my Vtuber name. My secret remains intact for now x_x
