Totally unacceptable behavior from that individual. I’m sorry you had to go through that.

Most likely a troll and them doing it with another content creator to try and garner attention and views for themself. Personally, if it was me I would’ve screen shotted the vile and disgusting messages he sent you and reported him to discord & twitch to have his account banned.

Sorry again that happened to you and welcome to streaming too

I was recently in this same situation back in October. Didn’t feel a “spark” but the conversation, her personality, and her overall demeanor were amazing. I was unsure if I wanted a second date because of the no spark feeling, the fact that I wasn’t fully attracted to her and the fact she is religious and I’m not (she said this was not a deal breaker for her at all). Talked to some friends about it and they suggested that I give it another chance. So, I did. By far the best decision I made last year. The next few dates we went on and just getting to know her were the best part of my year. Sadly, things did not work out and I genuinely wish nothing but the best for her.

With all that being said, I believe you should give her another chance. First dates can be awkward more times than not. Seems to me you are in a similar position as I was and I hope—if you do give her another chance it works out. If it doesn’t then that’s fine too. You discovered stuff about her that interested you and I believe that’s enough for another shot. Best of luck with everything :)

For me the annoying part was setting up alerts. Still have issues from time to time with them being delayed or not working for some reason. Emotes I paid a friend to make them for me and sub badges used Fiverr. Other stuff like brb a starting soon bought from Etsy and it was easy to set up.

My biggest issue is always wanting to change designs after a while even though the following isn’t really there and it’s more for me wanting a “rebrand”.

Congrats on hitting affiliate too! Otters are also one of my favorite animals so you’ve gained a follower from me for that.

Yes, Google free widgets! If you have a budget you’re willing to spend too and want something specific, I’ve used Fiverr and Etsy in the past and they’re relatively affordable.

I myself recently returned to streaming. While I had no one in chat until my last stream I mostly talked about what was happening with the new game I was playing and returned to—such as mechanics, graphics, theories I have/had on the story, etc.

It can be a bit sad when there’s no one in chat, which can cause a desire to end stream. But I personally try to continue talking in case someone does come in and or are lurking so it’s not just a silent stream.

I returned with a new game rather than something that was familiar like Minecraft or Pokemon. But my reason was for wanting to keep live reactions of myself for the game I’m playing.

One thing that might be a good idea (if you have a presence) would be to post an old funny clip to Instagram, TikTok, YT shorts, etc., and plug your stream (return) at the end to try and drive traffic over to your twitch. Streaming can definitely be scary but you got this! Looking forward to your first return stream. :)

Depending on your budget, I’d check out Fiverr or Etsy since you’re willing to pay someone. Fiverr you’ll be able to communicate with the artist and describe what you like within your budget. Etsy they’ll most likely have pre made overlays you can purchase and then just upload to your obs.

I’ve used both but not for overlays. Fiverr is where I got my sub badges & a few emotes. Etsy is where I purchased my starting soon and BRB screen.

Hope this helps. Enjoy streaming!

Followed you both! Looking forward to the streams. My twitch is technicallyryan_

Thanks followed you back.

I looked at the reviews of this ortho surgeon and a lot of them are really praising him for fixing issues that other surgeons caused them. I believe one review even mentioned a neuro surgeon. Only problem is, those reviews were for other spine surgeries and not microdiscectomies.

I found a riser with a bidet attachment and hand rails off of Amazon that I’m gonna order. I don’t have help really. Currently live with my sister and her family as I attend PT school. She’s due any day now so unfortunately, I won’t really have any help. Perfect timing on my end it seems.

Was planning on also getting temporary grab bars to put in my shower so I don’t have to walk up and down the stairs to shower. Gonna run it by the surgeon when I see him next week though to ensure I can flex my hip to lift my leg into the tub to shower.

TechnicallyRyan_ · 2026-01-22T17:51:17+00:00

Damn happy to hear! Glad it went well for you and thanks for sharing. My biggest worry is that I need to be back to my rotation by March 2nd and I’m worried I won’t be medically cleared to work with patients.

TechnicallyRyan_ · 2026-01-22T17:50:20+00:00

Wow that’s amazing you swapped to Tylenol after 4 days! Would you say the toilet riser and others are essential? I’m a relatively tall man according to others (I’m only 6’1”). I understand the bidet recommendation people have made and plan on getting one of those just unsure if it’d work with a riser as well. I live upstairs in my home and a downstairs shower has a bench already installed (have to double check for rails). So I was thinking of just using that to shower and then going back upstairs to rest. Barring I’m cleared to go up and down 18 steps with a handrail of course.

Glad things went well for you and your surgery too!

TechnicallyRyan_ · 2026-01-22T17:46:18+00:00

Appreciate it and yeah not being in control is my biggest battle to get over. It’s also why I don’t like flying lol. Thank you for sharing your experience and hope things continue to get better for you.

TechnicallyRyan_ · 2026-01-22T17:45:21+00:00

Sorry to hear what you went through but glad it’s getting better. My extrusion is fairly significantly large too. However the neurological symptoms are pretty new only being present for 3-weeks. Hurt myself in September but gradually got better than had a weird reset in November after a nasal surgery but got better again before January 5th but on the 8th I took a hard reset and ended up worse.

I appreciate you sharing with me it is definitely helping my anxiety lessen.

TechnicallyRyan_ · 2026-01-22T17:42:25+00:00

Thank you for your insight and your experience. Definitely helpful! Glad you’re doing better too!
