I do not know where I received instruction for my daily check-in redemption. I hopped between youtube videos and streamer.bot’s official Discord to find help for everything I wanted to do, and the set-up is fairly simple.

It’s me! I’m back! And I’ve brought with me a crochet pattern 🥰 I love the Smollen in Destiny 2, and I made one a while back so that I could have one of my own. I decided that I wanted to share the love, so I started working on different versions of the pattern and finally figured out a pattern that I’m happy with. I’ve spent a few months working on it on and off, and finally decided this weekend that I was going to sit down and get it finished. I’ve spent 16 hours in the last few…

This year, I decided to attend PAX East. It’s always been something I was interested in, but I never considered actually going because I wasn’t sure what I would get out of the experience. This year, my circumstances changed and I decided that I would take a trip down to Boston and see what PAX had to offer me. Turns out, it had a lot. The Event I arrived in Boston on Wednesday, the day before it was set to open. I timed my arrival so that I would arrive close to 4PM, which is the check-in time for the…

I am a very nervous person. I’m good at masking and appearing otherwise, but I’m usually filled with a decent mix of apprehension, self doubt, anxiety, and fear. NETASPA was one of the first events I went to without a clear idea of what to expect, and it ended up better than I envisioned. When I go to any event, I research it heavily beforehand. I find maps and programs from previous years, I find people that have attended and read their experiences, and I try to make up a plan for how I’m going to handle the different aspects…

This year is the year of trying new things. I currently have a subscription for Owl Post, which delivers hand dyed yarn and matching stitch markers every month. While I was glancing around at different subscription services that didn’t cost $100 every 3 months, I happened upon Yarnable. Don’t get me wrong, Yarnable is as described. It is hand dyed yarn on your base of choice (I went with DK), and the subscription cost varies depending on what tier or extras you choose. I chose to go with their Deluxe Experience, which includes the original 100 gram colorway, an additional…

Honestly there isn’t anything that’s “already done” except for a little crocheted bag and some prep for Sundered Doctrine, Destiny 2’s new contest dungeon, but I wanted to make the title longer than just “What’s coming.” Technically not false advertising. Anyway! My year is looking to be full of fun activities and events, and I’m looking ahead today to remind myself of my personal goals and also to be mindful of my project load – I’m already looking at more projects than last year, projects that are much bigger than my usual scarves and hand warmers, and I need to…

Weird Sisters Wool Emporium is a fun site that I’ve been happy to buy from in the past – and I’m currently a subscriber of their Owl Post subscription box. The main Weird Sisters website is a glorious display of fandom and geekery. It has collections of pins and stickers and hand dyed yarn colorways inspired by some of our favorite universes growing up, as well as entirely new topics and graphics that the owners created themselves. I highly recommend taking a look at the website, and while you’re there, let’s pop in and see what’s going on with their…

I’ve been streaming a lot with VTube Studio and Streamerbot, and I’ve found that the combination of these two programs has infinitely improved my stream and life (lol). Being able to automate actions in VTube Studio with Streamerbot has made the stream as a whole better, and has made people in the community more active as they fight over hats and who can make the badger dance the hardest. I’m going to give a brief intro to setting up Streamerbot with VTube Studio so people can play with settings and come up with their own redemptions. Connecting Streamer.bot to VTube…

I made a Hareball shell! And I’m happy with it! I’m currently giving one away in a giveaway on Discord, and I’ll be putting up commissions for it on Ko-fi, but for people that want to make their own, I have a pattern available! Bear with me, I’ve not written any patterns before, so I hope it’s legible! And if you want a PDF download, I have one available on Ko-fi. Materials Pattern Pattern is done in the round. Repeat between * and * until end of round Body:Iris/Blue:Row 1: 8 single crochet (sc) into a Magic Ring (MR) (8)Change…

2024 was a pretty big year for me. After unknowingly suffering the sedative side effects of a medication I was on for three years, a medication change brought back my motivation and got me started on projects that I had left far behind and mostly forgotten. I started socializing again and met amazing friends, and then I started reaching out and rediscovering some of my passions. 2024 was the year of crochet I finished a lot of projects in 2024. A lot. I started getting back into it with simple bags and the goal of reaching 12 projects by the…
