Due to lower engagement, the Boost Bus is still on hiatus. I made a brief video about why: Where is the Boost Bus?
If you're a content creator/artist and want a ride on the Boost Bus, then please email me at [email protected] with the subject: Boost
Please be sure to include a brief bio about yourself, what you want promoting (including links to your work - if it's art then please ensure it's hi-res so it can be used in videos), along with your pronouns. I won't be able to reply to emails due to the volume, but rest assured I read them all, so please do not send more than one email. 🚌
If you'd like to help improve the production quality of my channel and streams (or treat our cats to a gift), here's my begging list: https://shorturl.at/yzGHX
