A message brought to you by Goose

Someone was very uninterested in letting me make the bed earlier. Finally live for the first time in almost six months! twitch.tv/microbees_

As a glimpse into my mental state rn, I'm currently eating canned mushrooms directly out of the can

Things have been a lot in my personal life. This week amped things up with the announcement of the end of Destiny and the nonsense announced by USCIS yesterday that's really impacting my coworkers. Been doing some crochet since yesterday to feel a bit more grounded during it all.

Finishing up my workday at...11:05 PM. I didn't even get to some of what I wanted to get done today. Send help 🙃

Finals begin tomorrow and canvas has been down with no information on when it will be back up. You can't make this shit up lmao

Someone please talk me out of cancelling class just because Goose is very cuddly and I want to enjoy the cuddles

kermit Drifter. we don't need context for that, now do we. #warframefanart #driftcreates

Who let me play this game? I was fighting 2500+ level enemies and having the time of my life lmao

One of the most important people in my life is having heart surgery this afternoon. Send good vibes 💜

My entire job hunt experience so far has been getting interviews but it's for a position that's for an internal candidate so the interview is just a legal formality and I am so fucking tired of this

My phone won't let me see texts before late July 2019, so I lost her address that I need for sending her a post-surgery care package. Just found it using Google Street View, ask me anything 💅

It's so fun having to babysit this "post-doc" who apparently has a PhD in chemistry but doesn't know what a beaker is! Meanwhile, I can't find a full-time job. Cool, cool, cool cool.

Palette cleanser for your doomscrolling 💜

After several extremely frustrating days at work dealing with a couple of awful coworkers and their bullshit, I took today off to relax. Or that was the plan. Instead, I stressed out about finding a job and future living plans. Why am I like this 😩

This definitely hurt a good bit (subsequent disappearing debuff boys were not quite as painful), but the challenge did get completed! www.twitch.tv/microbees_/c...

Live with @lucky8605.bsky.social gambit gilding stream ft. @javman158.bsky.social and @isoracle.bsky.social who recently nuked his entire account for charity! What could go wrong? twitch.tv/microbees_

I've started playing Warframe and my thoughts so far are what in the world are these starting keybinds??

As G2G winds down, may I suggest donating to @isoracle.bsky.social 's campaign here: tiltify.com/@isoracle/or... He is $218 away from having to nuke his ENTIRE D2 account (a day before he's supposed to carry us in gambit) AND Bungie has released a limited number of 1K Hug emblems for $77!

Apparently you just get loaded into an instance with no one else if Bungie doesn't get anyone matchmade into excision quickly enough. Finally got the new light friend through it tonight alongside Rockets!

you're the main reason to keep on going

Objective complete! Honestly, 2025 was brutal from start to finish. Ghost did a tarot reading for me in January that can be summed up with "change." I got SO much more than I ever bargained for. There's a lot that I still haven't shared, but I'm hopeful for the life I am trying to build for myself.

Sorry about the stream being down for over an hour now. We finally regained the Internet, but we want to see if we can figure out wtf is going on since this has happened three times now. I may go live tomorrow instead to make up for it!

Goose heard there's a capybara emote in the bright dust store 👀 live with Day 2 of partying! twitch.tv/microbees_

Live with the Palia day for the "I'm a doctor now!" party! There will be giveaways! twitch.tv/microbees_

Now that graduation is over, Frinos bears the doctoral cap. I'm sure he'll do so responsibly.

Holy shit y'all, I'm GRADUATING tomorrow. Live with the one and only Sushi taking her through the new dungeon! twitch.tv/microbees_

Bracing for potentially losing power until Monday. Love and miss you all!

Live with Day 2 of Contest Equilibrium ft. @javman158.bsky.social and @rocketree.bsky.social, this time hopefully with 100% less anaphylaxis! twitch.tv/microbees_

New Dungeon Day! Equilibrium Contest Mode w/ Dr. @microbees.bsky.social and Rockets! www.twitch.tv/javman158

28 levels to grind to be able to gild conq 🙃 surely it'll be fine, right? twitch.tv/microbees_

I am so far behind on everything and renegades comes out in less than a week. Send help. Live attempting to prep so I'm not a bad teammate for contest dungeon at twitch.tv/microbees_

Despite Goose being sick two nights in a row, we persist! Live with Day 2 of Lucky's semi-annual gambit gilding stream ft. @lucky8605.bsky.social @isoracle.bsky.social and @javman158.bsky.social at twitch.tv/microbees_

Submitted my dissertation through the publisher's portal! Unless campus reviewers have any formatting issues to correct, I am done with all my requirements for graduation!

HI EVERYONE I'M BACK LIVE AS FOR THE FIRST TIME AS DR. BEES WITH @lucky8605.bsky.social @isoracle.bsky.social AND @javman158.bsky.social FOR LUCKY'S SEMIANNUAL GAMBIT GILDING STREAM! twitch.tv/microbees_

My laptop has been unable to correctly extend to other monitors since I unplugged my USB c hub from my laptop at the end of my defense presentation. It's not specific to the hub (plugging directly into the laptop has the same effect). I've updated windows and my graphics drivers. Send help plz

World's most recent doctoral recipient!

T-minus 57 minutes until defense. Goose kept waking me up last night so we have a grand total of 3.5 hours of sleep. I'm ready to be done waiting for this to start. Trying to just remember that I'm going to kick some major ass.

Holy shit y'all, I'm becoming Dr. Bees tomorrow. Come distract me from stressing about my defense tomorrow morning! twitch.tv/microbees_

I will be in the middle of the closed portion of my defense in 48 hours. Everything just feels so unreal right now. Also in the middle of learning that the feelings surrounding finishing a PhD are MUCH more complicated than I expected. Will be trying to stream tomorrow evening to keep myself calm!

I just... submitted my dissertation. To my committee. What the fuck?? This feels so unreal.

Dissertation writing vibes after the drama in the past week

Status update: my advisor thought my dissertation was due to my committee next Friday and not this Friday and apparently also just learned that my defense is on the 7th and not the 14th. So we're both doing great.

Final week of dissertation writing vibes

My favorite former coworker is in town! I was convinced to go out for bunch and saved it for lunch only to dump it on the floor while walking to my office. I just sat there staring at it while on the verge of tears for like 5 minutes. Final two weeks of dissertation writing are going great 🙃

Me every time my advisor brings up how little time is left for "the time you picked to graduate"

I will be drawing for the giveaways around 10 MST tonight! There's still time to get entries in for the giveaways (D2 2025 legacy collection, Palia mystery outfit, humble bundle games, and painted ghost shell). Remember, every $5 donated is an entry into ALL the giveaways! tilt.fyi/jDwahmxPGg

Having a high stress level day (have to talk about one of my dissertation chapters and the future with my advisor). Plz send good vibes and animal pics

Very lucky to have some wonderful and goofy friends 💜 We raised $200 for CARE yesterday! Draws for the giveaways are happening on October 4th, so there's still time to get draws in for all four, including a ghost shell painted to match an in game one of your choice! tilt.fyi/jDwahmxPGg

IT'S HERE!! IT'S FINALLY HERE!! CHARITY STREAM DAY!! Live with some SERIOUS solo dungeon shambles that you can contribute to in support of CARE and their Humanitarian Aid work!! twitch.tv/microbees_

Live for my second to last stream for a bit! Shilling out for the charity stream, uh, I mean hanging out with Sushi in Palia! twitch.tv/microbees_
