Hi, I'm Vana - your local wolf final boss #vtuber 🐺​

Once an MMO final boss, I got sent to the human world to find people from the guild that befriended me in game!

I stream on Tuesdays and Thursdays on Twitch, and every other Wednesday on VStream!

It's time for a re-introduction! Time's flown, but there's lots of new faces so I should say hi again!

I'm Nina, I'm a pixel artist who does way too many various things, and also stream! If you can tell, I like retro things and how you can apply those limitation in new ways!

My account will contain whatever is in my brain with no restraints, be aware!

just learned the story of how the tennessee purple coneflower went from "presumed extinct" to "endangered" to delisted by the ESA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE3uHJ8R5ro (6 minute video)

it's mindblowing how 1 human can have such a profound positive influence on an ecosystem!

also: cedar glades! this continent has such fascinating bioregions!

Remember mastodudes and fellow artists, adding alt text to your images it's a common practice here in Mastodon, and while is not obligatory, we try to include it on our posts so visually impaired people can enjoy the experience as much as you!!

And don't worry, you don't have to write something complex, just be descriptive about the picture you're posting.

"i use linux as my operating system," i state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. he swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision.
"actually," he says with a grin, "linux is just the kernel. you use GNU+linux."
i don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "i use alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU coreutils, or any other GNU code. it's linux, but it's not GNU+linux."

the smile quickly drops from the man's face. his body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth as he drop to the floor with a sickly thud. as he writhes around he screams "I-IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!"
coolly, i reply "if windows was compiled with gcc, would that make it GNU?" i interrupt his response with "and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. even if you were correct, you won't be for long."

with a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. he lies on the floor, cold and limp. i've womansplained him to death.

I've read that some users are vowing to leave the #Fediverse because they are on a server that has agreed to federate with #Meta's #Threads app, or they're on a server that has not made their position clear on whether they'll federate with Meta.

I'd recommend reading https://fedipact.online to find 418 servers that have pledged to block Meta you can migrate to, though not all are open for registration. Among the biggest are pixelfed.social, mastodon.nl, mastodon.art, pixelfed.de, and others!
