🎮 Who Am I?
I’m TailsThePrower71,, aka TTP – a legally blind Sonic fan, variety streamer, ham radio operator (KE8BSM), and IT dude. I stream Sonic games, advocate for accessibility in gaming, and occasionally wrestle with tech glitches and Eggman alike.

✨ What’s Coming in 2026:

🔹 Sonic & Twitch Content
Road to 1K: We are pushing for 1,000 followers on Twitch! Once we hit it, expect an epic celebration stream with special guests and giveaways.

Simpsons Trivia: A dedicated community stream for the fans of the classic era.

Random Giveaways: Spontaneous Steam gift cards and game giveaways throughout the year.

Stream Upgrades: New overlays and interactive Firebot commands to make the live experience even better.

🔹 Sonic Accessibility YouTube Content
As a legally blind streamer and gamer, accessibility is a topic near and dear to my heart. This year, I’ll be creating videos focused on:

How accessible different Sonic games actually are for low-vision players.
UI readability, visual clarity, and assist features in the Sonic franchise.
The specific tools and settings I use to enjoy gaming.
Honest breakdowns of what developers are getting right (and wrong) in accessibility.

🔹 Ham Radio & Emergency Management
I’m heavily involved in Skywarn and emergency communications at the local, state, and federal levels.

I’m currently studying for my Amateur Extra license (the top tier in the US!).
Because of my emergency management responsibilities, my stream schedule may shift during weather events or deployments. I truly appreciate your flexibility and kindness when real-world duties take priority!

🔹 The Linux Migration
I’m officially moving away from Windows.

OBS vs macOS: The struggle is real, so I’m looking at switching to Linux for my full streaming and gaming setup.

Leaving Windows: For security and personal reasons related to my emergency work, I am not moving to Windows 11 and am migrating my ham radio tools to Linux.
