STREAMING FOR ACTBLUE, STARTING TONIGHT @ 8PM EST
Added 2020-06-07 20:39:22 +0000 UTCAND WE'RE LIVE! COME WATCH AND HANG OUT IF YOU'RE BORED.
Hey folks, as I mentioned in my last post, things are majorly blowing up in my country right now and it's been affecting me pretty deeply. I've felt paralyzed and helpless. Innocent lives are being stolen, people I know have been teargassed and brutalized while protesting peacefully, and this is all unfolding right in the middle of a pandemic.
I can't do much, but I can draw.
A number of you have already hung out on my Twitch channel while I streamed before-- in light of everything that's going on, I'm going to try and stream more frequently over the coming week(s?), and will be donating all tips received during the stream to bail funds and support for victims through ActBlue, which is allowing donations to be split evenly between multiple organizations across the U.S. (For anyone curious, you can read about the places they're channeling funds to here!)
The content streamed will be... literally anything I'm working on as long as it's safe for work/not kink-related (ie, no tickling/paw/bondage etc-- but any content that doesn't feature any of those things is fair game, so if you'd like ATG comics or even your SFW patron sketches to be streamed, let me know in the comments below!). And don't worry, there's plenty of tickle stuff coming up... I'll just be working on it when I'm not streaming!
You don't need to make a donation to join the stream, but that's what I'll be up to for a bit, and patrons are welcome to hop in and watch as always!
However, because the streams might be seeing a broader audience than usual, I'm laying down some rules just to make sure we're all on the same page. (It's all pretty common sense, don't worry!)
STREAMING RULES:
- No slurs, no bullying, no harassment. Don't be a jerk.
- Swear-words aren't blocked, but try not to curse excessively. If someone is uncomfortable with your language and asks you to stop, listen to them.
- Keep the space safe for all races, religions, sexualities, and gender identities. Discriminatory language and/or deliberate spamming/trolling is not tolerated. No racism, homophobia, transphobia, islamophobia, antisemitism, misogyny, etc.
- Keep it SFW. The audience in these streams will probably be coming from my regular art accounts more than from Dirtybird, so kinky discussion should be saved for elsewhere! This includes stuff that's technically SFW but still a kink. Don't talk about things that you wouldn't also be comfortable with teens or someone's nice aunt weighing in on.
- ***For everyone's general safety, avoid giving out or asking for personal identifying details. No doxxing.***
Again, thank you everyone for your patience while all this wild stuff is happening! Let's all hope that things start looking up soon. Stay safe and take care!

That's entirely valid-- it's exhausting to be bombarded with depressing news constantly, and sometimes the best thing you can do for yourself is disconnect and give your mind a break. I think Animal Crossing is all that's keeping me sane sometimes! Take care dude.
2020-06-08 07:22:13 +0000 UTCAgreed. I have my own views on the matter. That being said. What has happened and the crappy response from people in power has me saddened. I value the day where no matter our ideological differences we can all accept one another without beating each other down. I've kept myself somewhat secluded from social media thanks to strong opinions from both sides getting put of hand. I wish you the best. I've been gaming lately to take my mind off things

2020-06-07 23:24:43 +0000 UTCThank you Hake, I appreciate that a lot. I'm currently trying to figure out some streaming software that will let me have a Tip Jar directly on top of the stream, but if I don't get it working in time, I'll post my Ko-Fi once I go live and people can donate there if they want to!

2020-06-07 22:43:48 +0000 UTCHey there-- thank you, that means so much to me! It's been really discouraging not to be able to attend protests, but I know that's a boat that many of us are in and I know even small contributions can count for a lot. Stay safe and take care! <3
2020-06-07 22:43:07 +0000 UTCWon’t be able to make it to the stream but just wanted to say I’m a big fan of your work and so happy to see you using your platform to support bail funds! I’ve found standing in solidarity with protesters either monetarily or physically is the best way to lift spirits in these difficult times. Much love and stay safe.
