Mina Virtua 💾🐻 (Digi Desktop Buddy VStreamer) @minavirtua.bsky.social · Feb 28

Happy 3 Year Debutversary
✨
I can finally announce outside of Plumcord the rebrand design.
The new form I will be taking this spring is Mina Virtua.

Mina is a sentient virtual desktop buddy formed from Plum's uploaded soul.

I hope you join me on this journey.

#vtuber #vtuberdesign #vtuberreveal

A plus size bear girl with paper white skin wears frilly pyjamas consisting of a baby doll top and matching puffy shorts, both are lilac.
She wears loose pink ankle socks and lilac slippers with bear ears on them.
She has a tattoo on her right thigh consisting of lilac stars/sparkles with little doodle angel wings and a halo.
Her hair comes halfway down the neck and flips out with the sides at the front curling in over her cheeks. The colour is light pinkish toned purple that gradients into blue halfway down and she wears a moon and two stars as hair decorations on the left side of her hair. She has bear ears matching her hair colour with white inside with a star piercing in the left ear and a ball piercing on the right.
Her eyes are drooped and she has very prominent greyish lilac dark circles and eyebags. Her irises are the same darker powder blue as her hair and she has white glowing starbust corneas. Her face also has very prominent freckles (they're usually the same purple as her dark circles but they're only sketched here) and her lips are a muted lilac.
She's wearing an oversized sandy yellow cardigan with blue stripes cutting through the middle of the wrist cuffs and the bottom weave and there's a pair of white angel wings on the back. The sleeves go way past her arms and she's holding her hands up at her sides.

this is absolutely true and I also hate it so much and it's why I kinda pulled back a lot

Stole the pic from Yuna since she posted it to her Discord but this was it after 3-4 hours and it absolutely slapped hard and we got like a couple days worth of leftovers with it!!

Same slow cooker goulash now fully cooked

Y'all I found the perfect ADHD tiredness life hack for getting shit done at home after work

Don't change out of your work clothes because they're uncomfortable to nap in

I'm already low energy so once I put on my nightie while sitting on my bed, I am absolutely cooked for the next few hours lmaooo

Mina Virtua 💾🐻 (Digi Desktop Buddy VStreamer) @minavirtua.bsky.social · 15h

The prep was what I was too tired to do but I'm off work tomorrow so I have no excuse to try and cram enjoyment into my evening without doing a little extra

Mina Virtua 💾🐻 (Digi Desktop Buddy VStreamer) @minavirtua.bsky.social · 15h

Ingredients:

Potatoes, carrots, onion, green and red bell peppers, tomatoes, beef, two stock pots, a *metric fuck tonne* of paprika, tomato puree, red wine, garlic, mustard, brown sugar, worcestershire sauce

Five Nights At Freddy's? More like five nights of putting off making Hungarian goulash for the first time in the slow cooker until now

My flat is about to smell divine over the next 3-4 hours 😩👌

📖 Bytes of Game Ads 📺

60% ear, 100% hero: Klonoa. Flip-flapping those long, fluffy ears onto PlayStation 2 in 2001.

A magazine ad for Klonoa 2 for PS2, with an anthropology book motif, comparing elephants (40% ear and 100% memory), beagles (20% ears, 100% cute), and Klonoa.

Never click any sus links
If need be, there are sites where you can check the legitimacy of a link so please be careful and exercise a lot of caution

Mina Virtua 💾🐻 (Digi Desktop Buddy VStreamer) @minavirtua.bsky.social · 16h

First rule of the internet, even if it sounds very convincing, if you're getting messages saying your account got reported, your Steam account got taken down or someone wants you to play test their random game, please please PLEASE don't click it for the love of god
This is how people get hacked

If someone is contacting you in BlueSky DMs claiming to have reported your account or they ask to add you to Discord, IT'S A SCAM. Do not reply, block and move on.

Protect yourself and your account. Make sure passwords aren't the same across all of your accounts.

Two people in my social circle were hacked recently.

- Don't click links or download files from someone you don't know.
- Don't ever give out your account information. Website staff will never ask for those credentials.
- If you paid money to have your account released/checked, it was a scam.

This means if you're in the UK and haven't signed this yet, please do. At 100k signatures they have to discuss it again.

Literally the least you can do!!

UK Gouvernment: Payment Processors Can Ban NSFW Content
According to the UK treasury, payment processors are in the right and the gouvernment has no plans to step in. This puts it in direct contrast to what artists and the UK games industry have asked for.

Okay but the fact that every time I go to a hotel I'm always usually putting on cartoons lmao

Not sure if many know, but considering it is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, this might just feel fitting.

If you ever come across a website that does a CloudFlare security prompt, and it asks you to "copy" something - DON'T. This is an attempt to get you to run malware. It's becoming more common.

I remember years ago on TikTok when someone pointed out that the song Sober by Fidlar sounds EXACTLY like Onision having a meltdowns and I can't unhear it

I guess I wanna make sure people know that lurkers are VERY VALID. It's just... Not sustainable mentally to ONLY have lurkers.

Mina Virtua 💾🐻 (Digi Desktop Buddy VStreamer) @minavirtua.bsky.social · 20h

My chat has really died a lot, especially more so after my rebrand so even just an "I'm lurking but hi" is fine

I know I don't really play popular stuff but I wanna share the things I love with everyone and hope they're enjoying it at the very least

✨Sparky Summers✨ Your Carbuncle Vtuber💛 @sparkysummers.vtubers.social · 1d

Im going to say something controversial

Streaming to a silent chat is soul crushing

Say hi to your streamer when you can 💛

While lurkers are valid, please, please, PLEASE give a hi, hello, or something to support a streamer.

It is one of the more soul crushing things to see an empty chat. I feel this in a way I didn't expect.
