smol banana

A person holds a very small ripe banana in their open hand. The banana is yellow with brown spots and fits neatly across the palm. The background shows a concrete ground and a couple of clay pots near a wall.

We had a typhoon that almost made a direct hit here and now we just had an earthquake

All this while we're witnessing a huge government corruption scandal unfold and a passing of a loved one

What a month...

Thank you for all the support during this difficult time. I’m still processing grief with family as we prepare the funeral on October 4

Hoping to return to streams sometime after 🖤

randsss 🔀 @randszz.bsky.social · 19d

Taking a break from streaming after a death in the family. We rushed them to the hospital last Saturday and they’d been in intensive care.

Because of this, I also won’t be able to attend Cosplay Mania this year.

Thanks for understanding and giving me the time I need. 🙏

This flood could have been prevented if public funds for flood control were actually spent for their purpose.

This is why we protest and call for accountability

So uh, this storm brought about a month's worth of rain in a day that it has flooded us up to thigh-deep level. It isn't usually this bad.

We're still keeping safe here though but those who are still in the path of this should take this seriously and prepare!! 🙏

Since then, flooding has only gotten worse. Meanwhile, massive funds supposedly for flood control seem to have been misused or outright stolen.

That money comes from all of us. It should have built safety nets and saved lives, not lined pockets.

I don’t usually step into political discussions, but this one is personal. When Typhoon Kristine / Trami hit in October 2024, my area suffered the worst flooding in recent years, within the decade. Streets became rivers, homes were submerged.
2/4

Security camera footage captured on October 22, 2024, at 9:16 p.m. shows a flooded indoor area during Typhoon Trami (Kristine). Brown floodwater covers the entire floor, reaching several inches high. A gray cushioned armchair with wooden armrests sits partially submerged near the center, with a broom resting across its seat. To the left is another chair pushed against the wall. On the right, large metal-slatted windows and a door reveal darkness outside with faint yellow light. The scene conveys significant indoor flooding and damage from the storm.

Security camera image of a silver compact car parked in a residential driveway partially submerged in brown floodwater during Typhoon Trami (Kristine). The water level reaches the bottom of the car’s doors, reflecting nearby lights on its surface. A white wall and window are visible in the background, with water marks showing how high the flooding has risen. Some identifying details on the license plate and a sticker have been obscured for privacy.

The Philippines is marching today. Billions, even trillions of pesos meant for flood control vanished into ghost projects while communities keep drowning. We demand truth, transparency, and accountability. ✊🇵🇭

I have acquired the matcha and the milk tea

Getting ready to do some offline work!

A cozy tabletop scene featuring a grande cup of matcha latte beside a cookies and cream milk tea. Next to the drinks is a clear acrylic block showcasing a VTuber character illustration of randsss, adding a personal and playful touch to the setup

Taking breaks is important too, so no streams this weekend!

(actually, I really need to catch up on my video projects, so gotta lock in and clear my backlog)

Discord announcement from randsss dated 6 September 2025 at 10:14 am. Title in bold reads “No streams this weekend.” The message is addressed to @Realm Residents, explaining they are taking a proper break after weeks of streaming, especially following VSWL tiering. They will use the time to rest and work on behind-the-scenes tasks such as VOD uploads, video editing, and stream planning. They aim to upload a stream schedule and some short content the following week. The post ends with “Thank you for understanding,” with waving and bowing emotes.

Thank you to eveyone from fellow tierers in R8, twitch friends (esp from Cult 39!), and those who also stopped by my streams to cheer me on and help keep me sane

OTSU!

This was my first time running for a world link event. I thought I had everything figured out with Rin chapter pretty chill but turns out Len chapter turned out to become a very challenging tier, but with all the support of everyone, I still managed to exceed what I had expected
