It’s been a minute since I posted here so here’s some deep 1am writing I literally just did and didn’t realize how deep till rereading it. Uhhh… I know I relate heavily to these words that are here but ya know. You’re not alone.

It's the return of Minecraft playing! Mazed and Confused @april-rains.bsky.social smp ...there's definitely some shenanigans happening :D www.twitch.tv/chaosticloki (Look at my sleepy baby)

Had an amazing week with the amazing @velvetqueencos.bsky.social 💙Learned to make my very first character cosplay and already know how to make it even better. Now at the airport and saying goodbye to such a fun week. New projects in mind and a new passion unlocked… thanks bestie ❤️ #voltron

So when I latch on to a character… y’all better fear for that character tbh. One character I’ve related to far too much, and have been writing is going through literal hell right now because I just adore them so much and want to develop their character 🙃 Writing fanfic… lovely

April SMP: The Maze will be launching the 17th at 12pm EDT! I’m super duper excited for this little SMP, the laughs, the giggles and chaos. It’s going to be amazing. The SMP will run till May 17th I got around 24 people lined up for this… so who knows what’ll happen.

Went and touched grass to celebrate my bday today. Mother Rains dragged me out of town and I’ve genuinely loved this little day adventure to celebrate. I think this will be a new thing for me. Dragging myself and friends out for an adventure on my bdays.

@londons-antari.bsky.social I’m giggling so much. We’re just chatting how we have unanswered DMs from MONTHS AGO with certain mcyt friends and Antari just went straight for the heart 🤣 I love my friends

I just want to say such a massive thank you to the community for all the support these last couple streams! I am in… shock. I genuinely don’t even know how to fully express my gratitude. Chat ended off ABOVE the last goal with 80,672 points. WOW… just wow. Thank you so much 💙

The B-Day stream continues in about two hours!!! Nearly every goal was hit yesterday, and after calculating points again, chat actually ended at 64,370 points! 65k - April SMP theme revealed 75k - Hardcore for a year And if y’all reach that- looks like new goals on the fly!

Part one of two for the bday stream complete! Chat is left at 64,170 points to start off tomorrow. At 65k I'll reveal April SMP 2 themeing. At 75k we begin the challenge goal which is MC hardcore for a full year! Then I have scheduling with @zadekirian.bsky.social for some duo streams...

Sunday! Omg like- 3 days basically! 2pm EDT is start time! We’ll go till I need sleep on Sunday then get going again on Monday. Two day event only!

Didn’t expect this to get attention tbh- uhhhh the bike pictured isn’t mine. It’s a friends who has been taking me out as a backpack so I can get more accustomed to not being in a car and such. Along with leaning and the feel overall. My bike is in a garage right now till I’m ready.

If y’all are curious why I haven’t been as active recently, I’m being dragged out XD On a similar note… I own a motorcycle now and have my motorcycle safety course upcoming. I have all my safety gear ready to go now too. Hehehe 🤭

Zade has learned a new lesson: Do not call the Appy bluff when the Appy is in gremlin mode. Now he has been dragged over to my place at nearly midnight XD

Chat. I fear I may already have the mindset of a motorcyclist 😂 Was feeling down, texted a friend. He tells me, “put on your helmet” (I got it last week for reference). I call him insane but do it anyway. Tell me why it worked? Why did that cheer me up? What is happening? 🤣

All I’m saying. Y’all know who you are, and I appreciate every. Single. One. Of. You. Seriously. ❤️

Do late night Appy cuddles come with severe consequences such as gremlin energy randomly surging? Yes- yes they do. Ask Zade ☺️

Can I just say I love voice acting bloopers? They’re absolute gold to say the very least 😂

Alright, let's try this again shall we XD Episode 4 of Ruins SMP is up! Apologies for the delay and technical issues, but it should all be good now (I hope T-T) youtu.be/z5RrEc3Jcbc

I finally asked for help in this SMP

This was… so emotional omg. Zade and I were sitting there on the verge of tears. Such a happy ending but OMG! This game… if yall ever want a good D&D inspired story where you’re like an NPC visual novel. Check Tavern Talk out.

Gonna go see Iron Lung tomorrow with da bestie! While neither of us really enjoy horror- how can we NOT go see this movie? I’ve already heard some great things about it and I’m excited! I shall give you all an update after seeing it tomorrow night.

It’s official. Ruins SMP will be closing its gates in May. A date will be announced closer to the time. Many cast members are just starting on their story, I’ll be trying to keep up with pushing them all as they come. Some stories are well into motion. Intertwining. Keep watching.

Welcome to the Ruins SMP. This project has been in the works for well over a year now and I'm so excited to announce it! Cast announcements will be taking place on November 7th and 8th! Until then... November 14th

After a very rough week of TRYING to gain motivation to edit, write, record… etc. I finally completed episode four. I can’t express how difficult it has been. While I didn’t show it, the lack of motivation has been very strong with depression so I’m proud to finish one. Episode 5 is in progress

Can I just express that IF I could draw the amount of scenes in my upcoming episodes that would have a little animatic is insane… the curse I carry is heavy smh. /j I do wish I could afford it but it’s just impossible. Time is not on my side nor is money and I can only wish..

Just spent over 9 hours editing my episode 4, recording the last interaction of said episode, writing and assisting with building on the server and some more writing… my body hurts from sitting all day. WHOOPS. Anywho, I go crash now o7

The bday stream is coming together yippeeeee! All goals have been set with their respective point amounts and we will be using the same point system as last year! Plus decided to add follows in for fun. Definitely more of a challenge to get to the goals this year but hehe I’m very excited!

So I’ve been inducted into the “Hynerds” which is my group of friends as we all play Hytale and I’m giggling so much. Today’s stream was awesome! I’m very excited to continue learning this game and the mechanics!
