The waters of existence are endlessly deep, but we've got a preserver with your name on it. Welcome to **The Life Raft**. A place where space is made to keep you afloat with support and our sharing of experiences to instill hope. This is an open place to be real and honest about ourselves and among peers. So scramble on in, there's always room for one more in The Life Raft.
I'm The Heartwarmer and my name is Bri (pronounced like the cheese). You can call me that or Goldie/Goldand (in terms of the second one, "the D is silent."). I'm also someone on the autism spectrum and it's my goal to be a voice in this community because I seldom see people that look like me being represented and that needs to change. Here on Twitch, I'm gathering together in the sea of reality a culture of unique perspectives and differing walks of life to share in conversation about the fabric of the universe and our place therein. Won't you join us on the Raft? (Please note, I am not a licensed 'lifeguard'. If you are struggling with mental health concerns, please reach out to an appropriate healthcare provider; this stream is for support and theoretical purposes only).
A little about me. I was an avid gamer once. Console-wise, I used to play PC, N64, Gamecube, and Playstation 2. Games like Final Fantasy VIII, Conker's Bad Fur Day, The Wolf Among Us, Blood Omen 2, Kingdom Hearts, and Skyrim among many others. But mostly now I love to sit in Just Chatting and delve deep into the minds of the people I encounter there. A word of warning: I am super bad with remembering names. Please don't take that personally; I blank out on the names of people I've known, in real life, for years. Ever-changing online monikers do not make this any easier. Apologies in advance!
I live in the US and the time zones change with good ole daylight savings, so please utilize the schedule tab of this profile to generate my evening Tues/Wed streams for your area. Otherwise if you can do the converting, it averages around 2:30am-4:00am UTC.
