My name is Cody, aka TheChillGiant, and I'm a musician, librarian, maker, video creator, and variety streamer here on Twitch. I talk about American politics and play Destiny 2, some horror games, some survival games, some Super Smash Bros., and a lot of classic console and handheld games, like Pokémon, Spyro, and more! Drop a follow if you want, I'm not the boss of you.

If you're not a fan of Amazon taking a cut of your donos, consider supporting me directly through StreamLabs. It gets to me a lot quicker, and every penny goes to improving the quality of my content and supporting other lovely creators across the internet. As always, donos are GREATLY appreciated, but NEVER expected. Your viewership is more than enough for me. All donations are non-refundable, so consider that before donating.

1) Tasteful profanity is fine, but no bullying, sexism, racism, homophobia, or other hate-based nonsense. 2) No spamming, and use caps lock ONLY WHEN NECESSARY. 3) No spoilers to a game, show, or movie. We get it, everyone dies. 4) Listen to the mods. I've given them swords, and they are NOT afraid to use them. 5) Life is too short not to be kind.

Whenever the puppy will let me, basically, I'll get back to a consistent streaming schedule. I'll let everyone know in the Discord and on Twitter when I'm going live, so click those panels.

Lots of fun changes just made! Probably the best way to catch me, ask me stuff, and chat me up off-stream. We've also got some LFG and party chat channels, if you're into that. We've also got some secret channels for the 'Philosophers' role, including early access to crowdsourced research, and a chance to help make it. Honestly, I've got the best community a guy could ask for, and I'd love it if you'd be a part of it. No pressure. It's free, and I'm very nice.

I do open-source research in my spare time (for fun, for some reason), and YOU can have it RIGHT NOW to go use for the good of the cause, or to pick apart to make it even stronger. I call them CAVALRY DOCS - backup for common arguments. I used to make them just for me, but now I make them just for you.

Mostly nonsense, honestly, but the best kind of nonsense. I do my best to be worth your follow, if you want pet pics, updates on the channel or like Marvel stuff, politics, philosophy, online fights, dumb selfies, or the occasional *spicy meme,* do the thing.

I've also got a YouTube channel! All of my good segments and each of my stream VODs are there, so that's a good place to go if you want to see the best of the best of the channel, if you're not too tired of my voice yet. *LikE aNd sUbsCriBe, sMasH tHaT bEll.* (Unironically, that really helps the algorithm)

As always, my primary goals are to produce quality content for everyone, build a strong community, and offer a space for people to express themselves through games, discussion, and memes. But, if you'd like to make me elated and miserable at the same time, here are some cool bonus goals I'm working towards: 200 FOLLOWERS: Marathon playthrough of Sly Cooper and the Thievius Raccoonus w/call-ins and AMA - ACHIEVED! 250 FOLLOWERS: Randomized Pokémon Nuzlocke Chat Battle 25 SUB POINTS: Budalk Nuclear Ramen Challenge Video (and also new emotes!) ???: TCGTV Invitational Smash WiFi Tournament, hosted by yours truly, with special guests and prizes
