A type of internet live stream in which a streamer records themselves lying in bed. During the stream, viewers are able to disrupt the streamer’s attempts to sleep by sending text-to-speech messages, playing music and/or videos, and sometimes controlling elements of the room itself such as lighting. In such cases, it is also referred to as a “control my room” stream.
I'm surprised more streamers haven't done sleep streams; they generate a lot of money from viewer donations.

Get the Your body, my choice. mug.A remake of the 1988 JRPG Dragon Quest III released for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X, Nintendo Switch, and PC in November 2024. In the months leading up to its release, the game became controversial for its censorship of the late Akira Toriyama's character designs and the removal of gendered terms when referring to the protagonist. The controversy reached its peak when a viral interview with Dragon Quest creator Yuji Hori revealed that the changes were made solely to comply with Western regulations, coupled with developer and publisher Square Enix's attempts to scrub the video from the Internet. Upon release, the game sold moderately well but was poorly received by many fans of the series due to the aforementioned changes.
Everyone who was involved in censoring Mr. Toriyama's work for Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake needs to apologize at his grave.

Get the Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake mug.A now-defunct massively multiplayer online (MMO) game released in March 2017 as the successor to the classic children's MMO Club Penguin, which was discontinued on the same day. The game served as a last-ditch effort to continue the franchise following its predecessor's decline in popularity and resulting demise. It was poorly received due to its initial mobile-only release, lack of content at launch and, like its predecessor, locking most features behind recurring paid membership. Due to a combination of these factors as well as competition from social media and other forms of children's entertainment, the game was a commercial failure. Club Penguin Island, and with it the Club Penguin franchise, was discontinued in December 2018.
