## Hi! I'm Joan - welcome to the witchy cafe! I focus on RPGs/narrative heavy games, as well as retro, goofy, & experimental stuff. A typical stream includes general banter, silly nonsense, and 'on-the-fly' live game critique. ### What's your story? I originally started streaming in 2018 to keep my husband company - he works third shift and our schedules are difficult to organize together. Since I've started streaming, however, it has changed my life! I've met so many wonderful people thanks to Twitch, and it's been so fulfilling to stream and connect with you all. ### Goals: * To provide a space for discussing current events, community, and culture * To provide a space where adults can relax * To make content about game critique & media literacy/theory here and on other platforms (namely youtube) * To make this a stable part-time gig * Pie in the sky: Making Twitch Partner and/or getting over 100k subs on YouTube?! Questions? Need to reach me? I'm at profgoggles@gmail.com Nice to meet you! Thanks for dropping by! <3

This is an adult-oriented community where we strive to be positive, friendly, and have as much fun as possible. That said, there are some ground rules: 1. We have frank discussions about sensitive subjects, such as politics, current events, and the like. *Discussion is encouraged, as long as civility is forefront.* 1b. No trauma dumping. 2. We treat each other kindly here. Gentle ribbing is okay; insults and bullying are not. Look out for each other, and take care of yourself. 3. We're against racism, sexism, homophobia, and other forms of discrimination/prejudice. Don't pull that nonsense here. 3b. *Absolutely no alt-right/fash rhetoric allowed - that's an instaban.* 4. We do a lot of heckin' cursing. So: combined with the subject matter we discuss, please be aware that **this is not a family-friendly stream**.

I'm aiming to be live every Tuesday and Wednesday, around 6pm EST (or thereabouts). Please keep in mind that I'm disabled, and streams may be altered/canceled due to that.

You are under no obligation to tip - it's never expected, but always appreciated. Tips go right back into the stream (e.g.; purchasing games, stream assets, etc.), or go towards keeping the lights on. Alternatively, I'm always looking for more games to play on stream. Here's my [Steam Wishlist](https://store.steampowered.com/wishlist/id/profgoggles/#sort=price). Please note that tips are final and non-refundable! Thank you so very much for your generosity.
