🙃INTRO THREAD
Greetings and salutations!

My name is Tethercat, but I also go by "gramps". I'm old as dust but young at heart.

I'm just a blue cat hanging upside-down by the rope tied to my tail.

I'm a Live2D Vtuber who streams 95% on YouTube, and over at Twitch on rare occasions.

(continued...)

Well, we made it to World 8-2 and I reached my personal best.
🍄🐢
I still suck though.

Super Mario Bros.

A great stream. 10/10 Would play again once my thumb heals.

Let's play Super Mario Bros.! Let's see if I can make it to World 8-2! I'm not very good at this game! Yay!

Heh. Thanks. No pity party here, just some realization is all.

I've already seen that tunnel, numerous times, more than I should've.

My goal is the long run now, and I'll sign up to be the first Futurama head-in-a-jar Vtuber when my time finally comes... lol.

Tether T. Katt (てざカと) 🙃 @tethercat.bsky.social · 11h

It dawns on me.

Just due to my age, alone.

...or...

Just due to my immunocompromised body, alone.

It dawns on me that I am statistically higher to perish at any given moment than the vast majority of other Vtubers.

...

Well, ain't that a happy thought... lol. 😆

Some of the greatest artwork ever made.

Oh hey everyone, Lampy is a really fun and chill #ENVtuber, so go visit some of those streams and you too might get a personalized coffee.

Lampy. Best barista ever.

Tonight's therapy session:

#TorontoBlueJays #Thanksgiving
#MentalHealth

ME: Hey the Jays beat the Yankees and people are losing their shit up here in Canada

I don't really follow sportsball too much.

Ticket prices and tribalism.

Соmе, соme elucidate your thoughts. ?

Wellllll since you're asking, mу fаmily are from Toronto and they're hardcoгe Jays fans. Every October growing up, I had to sit through Thanksgiving meals w here either the Jays were playing in the World Series tournament, or, I had to listen to my Torontonian family blather on about the Jays and why they weren't in the World Series tournament. I just wanted to enjoy my apple pie in piece but oh no, uncle Johnny was always mad at the umpire's call on third base what was that doofus thinking.

You don't seem quite certain.

? No, no I am incredibly quite certain, thank you.

I've always had a fondness for Billy Talent, but the first time I heard their song "Swallowed Up By The Ocean", I cried.

The second time I heard it, I got angry.

The third time, I wept and raged.

...

This is a song I think all of you need to hear too.

Thought of the day:

Age wise, we are now closer to Interview with a Vampire, than that was to Dracula.

Stay tuned for more misdom nuggets.

To make up for how Power Rangers is an old Japanese show they filmed additional scenes with Americans for we should do the opposite and make the casts of Law & Order SVU and Grey’s Anatomy stop a couple times an episode to fight people in werewolf costumes

I will gladly draw all of the frogs as a symbol for the movement, explicitly to take them back from the fuckers who co opted Pepe for their nazi shit.

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

Tron Bonne is the best fictional character ever made because she's like if Bulma was Doronjo and those are also the other best fictional characters ever made

There's sweater puppies.

A good (and somewhat top-heavy) friend of mine have been giggling senseless that this here is "sweater cows" season... and this amuses us everytime we recall it. 🙃😆

Lurkers are always important, I'll always be grateful, but we're all lying if we say chatters aren't fundamental too.

Chatters often get less recognition in pursuit of making lurkers feel more welcome.

Chatters are welcome and loved, just as much as lurkers, on my channel! ❤️

I'll go one further:

When possible, once you say hi, make sure you let them know that you're taking off and thank them for the stream.

That way it doesn't leave the streamer thinking they're still chatting to that individual. It's just a nice pleasantry when it happens.

Im going to say something controversial

Streaming to a silent chat is soul crushing

Say hi to your streamer when you can 💛

Make sure you give 4 minutes of your attention to this, and keep some tissues or sleeves nearby as you do.

Well said. We love ya, PNGTubers. You're the original VTubers.

Honestly like, when I see people say "pngtubers aren't vtubers" it just kinda proves that the V in #vtuber has just lost its meaning somewhere.

Virtual YouTuber= Vtuber.
Big emphasis on VIRTUAL. A png, a digital image, falls under this.

All pngtubers = vtubers. Not all vtubers = pngtubers tho.

My waking lucid thoughts were an overwhelming urge to reconstruct Atari 2600 "Smurfs" in Mario Maker.

I've never played Mario Maker.

But I've played a metric fuckton of A2600 Smurfs.

Screenshots from Smurfs for the Atari 2600. A smurf in mid-jump over a river where a snake is awaiting on the other side.

Tether T. Katt (てざカと) 🙃 @tethercat.bsky.social · 1d

That's encouraging. Thank you.
