🏳️‍🌈 Streamer Intro! 🏳️‍🌈

I'm Bee, or Buzz (they/them), and I'm an LGBT+ artist and content creator. I stream on Twitch, and some of my fav games are ACNH, Fields of Mistria, & other cozy/indie games!

⬇️ You can find links to all my socials here ⬇️

linktr.ee/bumblinbuzbee

An intro graphic for Buzbee. The top left is a rainbow frame featuring a photo of Buzbee smiling and giving a peace sign. To the right of this is a speech bubble that has "buzbee" in bubbly rainbow letters, with more text beneath the name that reads "content creator, artist. They/them". There are multiple boxes with rounded corners that contain details about Buzbee. The content box shows images portraying co-working and studying, art, and wholesome games. The about box let's people know that Buzbee's nicknames are Buzz or Bee, that they are a queer and disabled streamer, what their content style is like, and that they are a vocal activist. It also details their hobbies like art, beach combing, and caring for house plants. The schedule box says mon-thu, 10am-4pm pdt/pst. The box at the bottom contains most of Bee's socials, which are Twitch, Instagram, Ko-fi, Youtube, Twitter, and Bluesky.

this is an explicitely nazi administration and anyone who still supports them should be viewed as such

Incredible.

Jack Posobiec references the earliest version of antifa -- the anti-fascists in the Weimar Republic who were opposed to the Nazi Party -- as the bad guys.

What Lesbianism isn’t about:
- Excluding Bi/Mspec folks
- Excluding Trans folks
- Excluding Non-binary folks
- Excluding masculinity
- Excluding BIPOC
- Excluding Plural folks

What Lesbianism is about:
- Inclusion
- Diversity
- Self expression

Happy International Lesbian Day 💗

the answer to the trolley problem is not to pick who to sacrifice, it’s to dismantle the system that led to an unsafe trolley crossing.

if any part of your morality strategy involves picking a group to let die on a hill, throw the entire strategy out. it’s wrong.

Thank you! 💖

Personally, I like to use the Twitch "dance" animation for the pumpkin (though "rave" works well too), "arrive" for the ghost, and "zoom" or "slide in" for the grim reaper huh? emote.

Hey y'all!

Reminder that I have Halloween emotes available on my Ko-fi! They are free to download but if you'd like to help support my art and content you can leave a tip on my page ♥️

These aren't animated but some do work well with the Twitch animation tools.

🔗⬇️

A graphic titled "Free Twitch Emotes", with smaller text below the title that reads "28x28, 56x56, 112x112". The graphic contains seven different emote examples. The first one is a waving black cat with green eyes, text that reads "toxic" in alternating orange and purple letters with green goo oozing off of it, and a cute happy looking ghost. The next line of emotes below that is a happy looking jack 'o lantern, a cartoon grim reaper looking confused and saying "huh?", a spiderweb in the shape of a heart, and a black widow crawling over red text that says "hype".

A screenshot of a news article from 2025. The title of the article says "Gavin Newsom shocks LGBTQ allies with criticism of transgender athletes". The article features a photo of a group of people holding up pride flags of various sizes at an outdoor venue.

A screenshot of a news article from 2025. The title of the article reads "Gov. Newsome launches new task force to clear California homeless encampments". The article features a photo of a city worker in a white disposable hazmat suit and a reflective vest clearing away items from an unhoused person's tent area.

A screenshot of a news article from 2020. The article is from Politico. The text in the screenshot reads "Oakland, Calif. Gov Gavin Newsom said Friday he should not have attended a fancy dinner party honoring a top political adviser, which occurred during California's coronavirus surge and just as the governor is trying to discourage households from gathering for the holidays."

A screenshot of a news article from 2022. The title of the article reads "PG&E quietly declared 'safe company' by Gov Newsom's administration after sparking CA wildfires". The body text of the screenshot reads "Sacramento, Calif. The Newsom administration quietly recertified PG&E as a 'safe' company - despite officials making the utility company responsible for the wildfires. The news comes as PG&E's past wildfire victims lost money because they were paid partly in shares of company stock. Activists to the left of Governor Gavin Newsom have been watching, and they don't like what they see: They watched Newsom win office with more than $200,000 of PG&E campaign money."

Unfortunate update: Link reached out to BlueSky and got email back now on reason.

His appeal is denied. He will remain permanently banned on BlueSky’s side.

Here are the screenshots he just sent me as of 8:22 AM EST(my time)

A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team with the subject line “Bluesky Account Behavior” sent at 22:15. The email states that a Bluesky account controlled by the recipient, with the handle @spacelawshitpost.me, posted a reply with an image where the alt text reads: Charlie Kirk sitting in a white T-shirt that says “Freedom.” A negative consequence follows. The email indicates this post violates Community Guidelines regarding violent or threatening speech, specifically listing threats of violence or physical harm against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public, and incitement of self-harm or suicide.

A screenshot of an email continuation from the Bluesky Moderation Team displaying a bulleted list of Community Guidelines violations. The first bullet point describes threats of violence or physical harm as including threats or encouragement of violence against individuals, groups, institutions, or the general public. The second bullet point defines incitement of self-harm or suicide as content that encourages self-harm or suicide. The third bullet point explains wishes of harm as expressions of a desire for harm directed at a specific person or group. Below the bullets, a paragraph states that users may not use Bluesky to break the law or cause harm to others and that all users must be treated with respect. The next paragraph informs the recipient that as a result of these violations, your account has been taken down. A closing paragraph thanks the user for doing their part to keep Bluesky a welcoming and empowering place for all users and instructs them to email moderation@blueskyweb.xyz if they have questions or wish to appeal the decision. The email ends with the signature Bluesky Moderation Team.

A screenshot of an email from the Bluesky Moderation Team sent at 08:11 with the subject line Re: Bluesky Account Behavior addressed To: Hide My Email. The email reads:

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out to appeal the takedown of your account on Bluesky. We have carefully reviewed your case, including the information you provided and the activity that led to the suspension of your account.

After investigating, we have determined that your account activity was in violation of our community guidelines, specifically promoting hateful content or being disruptive to other users. We take these guidelines seriously to ensure a safe and respectful environment for all our users.

As a result, we regret to inform you that your appeal has been denied, and your account will remain suspended. This decision is final and cannot be reversed. We understand that this may be disappointing news, but we must prioritize the well-being of our community and maintain a consistent enforcement of our policies. We encourage you to review our community guidelines to better understand the expectations we have for user behavior on our platform. Please do not create new accounts, since those will be taken down for ban evasion.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Halle Bailey's Ariel 💜

My take on Halle Bailey's Ariel from the live action Little Mermaid.

She is admiring a fork and sitting on a rock under the sea. She has red locs, brown skin, a purple shell bra, and green and pink tail. She is draped in pearls

You can probably take a 100-question online test to see if you're autistic but really you only need the first question to be "did you look for a 100-question test instead of a 10-question test because of the greater accuracy that promised?"

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! 🏵️ Thank you so dearly to @fruitiesteam.bsky.social for the spotlight and opportunity to share a bit of my life with others! ✨ It's a joy but also incredibly meaningful and pivotal to learn more about my Puerto Rican ancestry. 🫶🏽💗

Hispanic Heritage month is September 15th to October 15th and we would like to highlight what this month means to @sweetwildthing.bsky.social ~ Thank you for sharing Sweet!

💜 twitch.tv/sweetwildthing

"For me, honoring Hispanic heritage month is celebrating how far I have come in learning about my own culture. It's a time of year I'm reminded I should embrace who I am and where my ancestry comes from. As I teach myself Spanish and reclaim this heritage that was never introduced to me growing up, I am very proud to say I am Puerto Rican and I am Hispanic! It's been a joy learning to love my Hispanic ancestry and history!"
