EarliestTea
Welcome to Earl’s Inn, Seafarer. The Earliest Inn at Your Earliest Convenience, where I provide a calm port in the storm of life! Come aboard my nautical ship for comfy games, cool artworks, and warm chats--and a spare hammock waiting for you #below-deck
Updates in the works!
Working on stream and panel updates. Coming early 2024. Thanks for your patience!
Current schedule for stream is **Monday and Sunday** evenings, and specific start timing is announced on **!map** Discord~
Save me from scurvy while I stream, by sending me [food and drink](https://treatstream.com/t/treat/earliesttea)!
The options are automated, so you'll be able to avoid my allergies. CoWorking is the best time to send sustenance; but as we may be doing a different activity that day, all times during streams will still work. Yum!
Name: **Earl** or Tea (I prefer Earl) | **xe/xem**
Avast, ahoy, henlo! I'm a chatty child of Poseidon and sea-salty descendant of Hermes.
Land-life as a neurodivergent, disabled POC is rough; so come brighten my day with a little party aboard my ship. Comfy, sassy, wholesome vibes abound at this port of call~
Your Earl's "working memory" gets scattered and overwhelmed easily; but, even when it takes me a while to catch up, know that I'm always trying my best for my ship and Seafarers.
**Please feel free to pop into my chatbox and say hello**--it really helps when I'm live.
You can also aid during stream by redeeming your Old Salt for Lucky Blinks, through my Channel Points rewards. (Please redeem health reminders one at a time, not multiple at once.) Thank ye!
#### PRONOUN PRONUNCIATION CHEAT SHEET
♙ **xe** = zee (Xe has many food allergies, so please be considerate.)
♙ **xem** = zem (Those tinted migraine glasses belong to xem.)
♙ **xyr** = zeer (That is xyr new recorded song.)
♙ **xyrs** = zeers (That crystal necklace is xyrs.)
♙ **xemself** = zemself (Xe created that artwork xemself.)
**Stream takes place any day after 6 PM PST.**
Because my health is not cleanly predictable, we run an open-day schedule, so that we can take hold of the days that I do feel well. **I always announce stream a few hours beforehand on my [Discord](https://discord.com/invite/QwckM2s), so be sure to join and check that [!map](https://discord.com/invite/QwckM2s) for announcements.**
My ideal schedule is 6 to 10 PM PST, though we've lately sailed further than these waters.
#### VARIETY COMFORT ART & GAMES STREAM
♙ Monday: Miitopia (or arts)
♙ Tuesday: [Arcana](https://peachiepeas.itch.io/the-arcana-expanded) / book reading stream (or arts)
♙ Wednesday: Spiritfarer (or arts)
♙ Thursday: Pokémon - Sword & Quaxly (or arts)
♙ Friday: variety chaos (or arts)
♙ Saturday: Duolingo (or arts)
♙ Sunday: Animal Crossing - New Horizons & Happy Home Paradise (or arts)

Variety = Ring Fit Adventure, Old Man's Journey, Pioneers of Olive Town*, Mega Man series
Community Night = Drawful 2, Gartic Phone, Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, Chess.com
Note: We are tenaciously catching up on art and Animal Crossing, at least through early summer; so the new games schedule may not set into effect right away. Thank you for your patience, as the ship makes adjustments in summer and fall.
#### WEATHER AFFECTS SAILING
I do not have central heat or aircon, and my chronic illnesses disallow me from blasting fans; so our activities vary seasonally. I may avoid music streams during winter, so my hands aren't freezing upon instruments; and I may take stream breaks during summer, as running electronics is glitchier in hot weather. Am try! I appreciate ye Seafarers who stick with me through it all.
