It will start on the next stream (this Friday) and have no deadline.

What do guys think?

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 2d

But, I am still stubborn, so here's what I would like to do.

I set up a donation goal for $100, and I'll cover for the other $100.

I'll cover for half of the cost if people are interested in seeing me play games for the Switch and PS5! 3/4

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 2d

I really would like to get a graphics card so I can stream Switch and PS5 games. The one I'm interested in (when factoring in PayPal fees) is $200.

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that it's similar to what I said before; they can donate if they like the idea. 2/4

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 2d

I've been thinking about this for a while. I've made a post a few days ago about how I feel about asking for donations to help purchase games or equipment for streams and how it made me feel.

I think the reason I feel off about it is because I don't like relying on others to buy things I need. 1/4

Also, it happened while I was talking to my mom on the phone, but I didn't say anything. I just made this face while she was talking.

So, I'm playing Pokémon Violet, trying to breed an Avalugg for a Raid fight.

Twelve eggs in, I got a shiny.

What are the odds?

I only have the Shiny Charm, and I wasn't using the Masuda Method, so it's 1 out of 1,365.

After just 12 frickin' eggs.

This is the reason I had to postpone the stream.

I had to give Seymour an emergency flea bath. Little guy won't even look at me right now.

See you guys in about 45 minutes.

Opps, the stream is going to be 11AM instead of 10AM. There's something I have to do before hand. Sorry! #dst #kastarstream

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 5d

I'll be streaming Don't Starve Together in one hour! #dst #kastarstream

If anyone knows what I'm talking about, please share. It's been on my mind a lot. 3/3

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 6d

Any money I get tends to go to things like bills or food, and I only want people to donate if they like what they see. No pressure.

But what if someone donates for the sole purpose of me being able to get games and equipment for the stream? Why does that feel wrong to me?? 2/3

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 6d

Something that came up during one of my streams was how I feel weird receiving donations during streams, specifically to purchase games or equipment for streams.

I don't know what it is, but it feels wrong to even ask for something like that. 1/3

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 7d

Okay, I'm gonna do a Pokemon theme tier list for next week instead of an Art Stream!

It will based based on these factors:
- Nostalgia
- Design
- Personal experience
- Lore/inspiration

It'll be laid back, chill, and just for fun! Hope to see you there!

In my last stream, I mentioned that I would like to do a tier list of my favorite Pokémon. It would be a more chill (and maybe goofy) stream, but I need to know if enough people would be interested in that.

Or a Pokémon Smash or Pass. That would be...interesting.

Custom swears for the cesspit would be funny, ngl.

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 8d

Seriously, I'm considering just buying Pokemon Z-A for the og Switch, even if the performance is going to be trash.

I'm not throwing down $500+ for a Switch 2, just to play one game.

KaStar @kastar23.bsky.social · 8d

Yes, unless I can find someone else to play with. Or hope on random servers for fun.
