Rivals to Lovers yuri:

It's about VTubers who are way more successful than me and actually care about connecting to the greater part of the industry:
:T

(I'm actually secretly super excited about this but you guys know hating mainstream vtubers is unfortunately my brand lol)

In other news, I FINALLY started Heart of the Woods (another @vnstudioelan.com VN, same dev as Please Be Happy which I recently went insane over) after having it on backlog for... geez, close to a decade now I think.

It's a fun one so far, but it's also a complete tonal shift compared to PBH lol

Cancelling stream for today. Had my health issues flare up last night and stop me from sleeping for a while and got, like, maybe 5 hours. Taking it easy today. Reading some yuri to cleanse my screaming soul.

Had an odd dream last night. I dreamed I was reading a yuri manga that doesn't exist. (Or maybe it does, but I've never heard of it in my life?)

Sci-fi mecha setting. Very very gently mechsplo but only really subtextually instead of the mega-traditional "handler fucks the pilot" sort of way. 🧵

brb omw to make my new breakout pngtuber application to cover everybody's use cases, and i'm gonna call it...

/927/Tuber
February 11, 2026 at 1:41 AM
three PNGTuber apps tried so far and nobody lets me drag and drop a damn file

only one has an OS-native file dialog and the other two don't understand that a double-click generally means i want to load the file

veadotube would probably be way better, if it weren't for the fact that I have a couple of parts that have multiple states, meaning to get the png working with all desired features, I'd need to export SIXTY FOUR INDIVIDUAL IMAGES instead of just 20
unbelievable that pngtuber+ is an industry standard tool and it has
- 10 hard states
- no keybind configuration
- defaults to one-button keybinds for states that get in the way of every videogame ever because it's JUST 0-9
- you use WASD to fix sprite origins
- YOU USE WASD TO FIX SPRITE ORIGINS

At this point it's abundantly clear I'm going to need my own webserver to host things like communications (possibly Stoat and/or IRC?), probably a custom restreaming relay, plus press kits and other gamedev website-y goodness.

Problem is, I just don't have the income to support it...

wait the "compelling new territory" is actually just CAI-TAn

(sort of, she's technically in a quantum state where she's at both opposite ends of the X axis at the same time -- desperate to find a purpose for herself to not Die, whilst also being resistant to her old parameters as a killbot)
