#i do have more screenshots 😭 i spent too much time and money on this app !

[bclarke]

haiiii ^⁠_⁠^ i got back into the depths of hell (topps digital card collecting) and that reminded me of my very insane history of nhl skate (rip 🙏🏼) so here is my wonderful old screenshots of that god forsaken app/my old kings collecting days .

this was my first ever kings card i got 😁 very sweet memory, i showed my brother the second i pulled it 😭

my birthday spence card!!! i joined the game like two weeks after my birthday so i got traded this but still #grateful

turc's first goal card!!! i pulled it and it was so amazing.

+ i completed all the rarities cause my brother traded his cards for alex to give me :)

on theme with first goal cards, here's clarke's goal card #Beautiful (i'm not sure if i competed all)

look at how much!!! tbh does this look insane, be honest .

my greatest thing being a clarke fan was me completing his card collection! i had all of his cards just not all the rarities 😆😆

anyways!!! this post is just for me to brag about my insanity! did anyone else have this app? i had like maybe 4k? cards of the kings alone 😭 still not over it tbh. topps will pay!

thoughts on todays volume !

leo is…well, at least he’s not dean 😭 i like his personality but he looks like a mix of dylan from season 4 & wesley stickler from ace attorney

i feel like FB is overexplaining why OG LI didn’t leave when MC got dumped. i get that they’re trying to make him look good (& get more money from players by milking these backstory gem scenes lol) but tacking on even more stuff is making the whole thing look nonsensical

FB! make this evil twink a love interest and MY LIFE IS YOURS ! (i guess they are aware of the slim shady comparison lmao)

but for real, i still don’t know if he’s gonna be an LI or not. i can't tell if he has any significant dialogue changes and i'm too lazy to start another playthrough. he doesn't have amnesia though, he remembers that ive been flirting with him (i forgot to screenshot his first piece of dialogue but he’s talking about the spin the bottle kiss)

there’s not much to say about mr. love island, except that FB seriously needs to retire that gross looking yellow massage oil overlay. at least adjust the hue a bit 😭

caleb sticking up for MC was very sweet 🥺❤️ obviously she can defend herself just fine, but he’s a real one for this. it’s making me feel bad that i haven’t spent any time with him in the villa (if only we could be a friendship couple, instead of the game forcing us to lead him on)

the spirit of season 1 MC possessed us for just a moment, i was gagged 😭 i ended up forgiving ava tho, i wish we could just be friends with the girls that aren't also LIs. i know i keep saying it but this one sided rivalry shit is so boring

the ex rated challenge was what i expected: LIs get decent reviews, MC gets the only 5 star rating. not to nitpick (in the sense that there's much bigger issues with FB's LGBT representation) but i don’t know why we couldn’t have chosen the gender of MC’s ex, especially since ash is already a gender neutral name (there could’ve easily been a dialogue option like “my ex…boyfriend/girlfriend/partner” before telling the story)

since MC won the challenge, she gets to go to the hideaway. i don't know why it's a secret or why none of these nosy af islanders tried to figure out what the prize was. anyways, i chose lisbeth ! it was so cute that they mentioned being happy to be there with eachother again

this damn box— whatever, i picked sexy dice

all those letters teasing movie night got me scared luv, i’m sure the main event is gonna be nyah in the shower with dean, but i’m bracing myself for MC and lisbeth caught doing bits all over the villa in 4K. i hate how wlw routes have to be sneaky/shady/hoe route-adjacent (it really sucks because i remember complimenting FB for the dialogue you get if you kept choosing her over the guys up until the first hideaway visit)

i'm still holding out hope for enemies to friends but sadly i won't be surprised if she does a full 180 in the next volume

next up is a three way date with hayden and caleb, unfortunately we can’t make them kiss challengers-style. i picked neutral answers whenever i could, but caleb won whatever compatibility thing we were doing because i liked his answers more lol

tristan’s rapping…i was gonna say “welcome back, rap crew” but tim, rohan, even jake would never come up with bars as horrible as those 😭 (can you tell i miss season 1)

lisbeth got jealous, so she took us on a hot tub date ❤️😭lately all of her scenes mention something among the lines of “i can’t wait until we’re finally able to couple up," when the hell is the recoupling ?! the last volume ? my heart can’t take it

hayden, caleb, tristan, and leo are on the chopping block. i have no idea why milo is safe & not the two dudes who’ve been here for one day and are still single, but alright.

it’d be hilarious if tristan got dumped again, but i’m guessing they’re gonna keep him around for drama (or he's a LI ?) . leo will probably stay to be ava’s partner, so my prediction will be that MC will have to choose between OG LI and casa LI

overall, there's 4 volumes left, why on earth are we dealing with a forced love triangle instead of spending time with our chosen LI ? at the very least i'd be more invested if it was between lisbeth and jesse, or even eisha if FB was too lazy to branch for a love triangle with different LI genders 😭 (even though they were able to do that back in season 3, with the iconic "i've got a beautiful girl and a handsome guy fighting for my attention. i'm living the bisexual dream") what a mess

i'm not looking forward to movie night, but i guess OG LI loyal girlies will probably be considered cheaters too, let's all be miserable together 🥀

To celebrate hitting 10k subscribers for the first time on YouTube, I decided to update my social media banner. And it’s really interesting to see what has changed with my content since when I last updated it only 9 months ago.

Here’s my 10k subscriber screenshot (which still has the old banner on it).

💚 At the time I didn’t know that Linktree had a logo, so I just made a “video player” icon for it. 😭

💜 Two spots below that I linked my Twitch, which as of the current date, I’ve phased out of my scheduling completely. The reason for that being that I just don’t really like the company that much anymore, and that I feel much better saying “Sold the YouTube Streamer” than “Sold the Twitch Streamer”. Crossing my fingers that I can actually hold a stream schedule so I can call myself that properly though.

🩵 Below that I had linked my Twitter account, which was a much more reasonable thing to do 9 months ago. I spent a long time wondering if I even wanted to link my X/Twitter on my banner considering it feels like a sudo-endorsement of the platform. Similarly to how I feel about Twitch, but probably worse. I don’t want to be an “X Creator”. I actually at one point while designing my new banner had taken it out and replaced it with my Threads link, but in the end I grudgingly decided to add it, just a few more rows down this time. I just have too many cool mutuals and creator friends active on there to abandon it now as much as I want to.

🖤 Then I originally had my TikTok linked, since I made that banner 9 months ago I’ve become much more welcoming of being a “TikToker”. Even back then it was my biggest platform, but I was really trying to downplay it. Now I’m a lot more excepting of that idea. Because of this, on the new version, TikTok is linked right under my YouTube as the third link and the second social on the banner. The new order across all the links is much more representative of the order I prioritize my content per platform in.

💙 Then I had the last part of my Discord Server’s link written. This was just kind of impractical. I still have big plans for the Discord Server in the future, but it’s just hard to put in a banner. So for now I’ve removed it completely.

🤍 And finally, the last thing I had linked was my Epic Games Support-a-Creator Code, at the time it was one of my only sources of revenue and I was also very proud of being an Epic Games Partner, so I can’t blame myself for putting it there. However recently, like last month recently, it has expired. I’ve made the descion to not renew it because I don’t really play any Epic Games games anymore, and it was bringing in near nothing amounts of money anyways.

🧡 So that’s everything that’s changed from what I used to do, so then what have I added? In recap I used to have my Linktree, YouTube, Twitch, Twitter, TikTok, Discord Server, and Epic Games Creator Code linked. First I’ve reduced the amount of links on there from 7 to 6 just for simplicity’s sake, and the new line-up looks like: Linktree, YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X/Twitter, and Tumblr. This is much more showing of my current priorities as a creator (both in platform choice and order). The two new additions are of course Instagram and Tumblr. Originally I didn’t like Instagram that much, but I’ve had a fair amount of recent success on it and I like what it brings to the table. Then there’s Tumblr, I don’t post a whole lot here, but I would like to, for the opposite reason as why I left Twitch actually. I feel good about being a Tumblr user. “Sold has a Tumblr blog” just sounds so on-brand for me, so I’m very excited to see where this goes because I’m passionate about this platform.

Anyways here’s the final banner update.

Hopefully I can take X/Twitter off here eventually 🤮

Also all the banners just say “Sold” now instead of the specific channel name, with luck it will make more people call me “Sold” instead of “SoldToGaming” or “SoldToTyping”, which would be good for branding consistency.
