Hi, I'm uzworm. (That's pronounced ooze-worm!) I'm a Coloradan queer-asexual & disabled guy (he/him). Also plural, but you will never see my alter fronting when we stream.
My TikTok probably has the best content I make online, somehow.
Gaming content and VODs can be found on my YouTube channel 2zworm. I also have a channel where I talk about politics and disability issues at UZwormLP. Inactive for the foreseeable future due to writers block and a bigger focus on streaming.
What's (supposed to be) My Streaming Schedule (All times US MT) Sun 1 PM - Tecmo/Skyrim/Spotlight/Random Sundays Mon 1 PM - The WHEEL OF MALAISE Tues 1 PM - GEOGUESSR BINGO Thurs 1 PM - Chill Thursdays: Just Chatting, random chill games, Among Us

If you want to support the uzworm brand™, you can click this image and head over to the Streamlabs and donate! We're too disabled to work most "real jobs" in this world so we actually do use the money I make from this to live. Anything is appreciated.
(IF I AM DOING A CHARITY STREAM I ALWAYS HAVE A !donate COMMAND, THIS IS FOR DIRECT DONATIONS TO ME. IF YOU DONATE TO THIS LINK INSTEAD OF USING THE !donate COMMAND WHICH LINKS TO THE CHARITY I AM KEEPING THE MONEY)
Who the heck are you?
I'm uzworm. (Or UZworm. Capitalize both letters or neither plz!) I've been doing Let's Play-related stuff on the internet since '09, but didn't hit YouTube and Twitch until '12. (Ask me about betting it all on the success of Blip.tv!)
Who's Claire and why do you use plural pronouns so often? We have OSDD; Claire is my only alter. If you're interacting with an @uzworm account, it's almost certainly me. When I say "I", I'm referring to myself: Chris/uzworm. When I use plural pronouns, I'm referring to our body and mind as a whole. When you see @clairesonality on Twitch, that's her fronting.
What are your politics? Insert Soviet anthem meme here
You're disabled?
We have Bipolar I, ADHD, PTSD, OSDD, respiratory problems, fibromyalgia and spinal arthritis. Fun! We believe talking about disability and open conversation about the topic is important, so if you want to talk about disability stuff in the chat this is a safe place to do so!
I hear you do charity events? Two per year at least! Every February on Super Bowl weekend we do the TSB-themed 24-HOUR CHARITY HUT where we raise money for an LGBTQIA+ organization.
The last weekend of every August we do a Baja Blast and Elixir-filled run of a game of our choice called THE ELIXIR STREAM to benefit whatever that year's FF5FJF cause is.
How do we join your Discord? Ask in chat for the link!
Does your channel have mods? I mean, sure. Only in theory, never in practice.
What is your favorite video game?
Dragon Warrior Monsters.
What video games are you not terrible at?
Dragon Warrior Monsters.
Maybe Tecmo Super Bowl. Depends who you ask.
Ace Frog!? The Ace Frog always hangin' in the corner of the stream is by an artist named Teabag.
Who made your Twitch emotes? The HUT HUT HUT one was by certified cool guy WobblyPython, and the rest were made by a pixel artist named Furita. Check her out!
How about your layouts? That's the wizard of Blender himself, WobblyPython. Can't recommend the guy enough!
What are your specs?
Better than they used to be! Hyuck hyuck
What's with that intro screen banner??
It's a bunch of inside jokes that have been accumulating for a long time. Only I remember the context for half of them. If you want any specifics just ask! I enjoy talking about my terrible old streams.
What's with all the Lady Gaga?
We just really like Lady Gaga.
Are you a Gaga Stan? We disagree on a fundamental level with stan culture and also acknowledge that ARTPOP is far and away her worst album, which disqualifies us from being a Gaga Stan.
Top 10 fav Gaga songs? Just Dance / Beautiful, Dirty, Rich / So Happy I Could Die / Speechless / The Edge of Glory / Perfect Illusion / Just Another Day / Look What I Found / Rain on Me / 911
Stop getting mad at video games.
That's not a question. Also, no.
Every Tuesday we do GEOGUESSR BINGO, with the first 4 winners getting VIP status and their name in the record books.
Season 2 standings can be found here.
Congrats to the three Season 1 Bingo Champions, Doomcup, DieJobberwockDie, and Darkgob.
The WHEEL OF MALAISE is this channel's flagship program, starting at 1 PM Mountain Time on Mondays!
The wheel contains 14 games,challenges, and stream rules that dictate how our time is spent.
NOTES/SHOW RULES
1. Every wheel episode will be no fewer than four hours long. It can be extended past that as long as we want.
If you see 👹 it's a MALAISE WEDGE; landing on it means an extra hour will be added to the stream.
2. There are no respins! If we land on something, we do it no matter how little I want to.
The exception: Once per episode, a 20,000 Gaga respin is available that can be bought at any time. The respin is only valid between a spin occurring and the event starting. It does NOT remove the respun event, so it can be hit again. (This has happened before and is very funny.)
A GOLD WEDGE on the board means that event cannot be respun. If you use the respin then, it will be wasted.
3. In some instances, Stream Rules will invite Discord participation. Game access is open to subscribers and Patrons. Suggestions for fanfics and wheel challenge ideas should be submitted in the Discord. Ask in chat for the link!
4. Events are generally planned to be between 30-90 minutes so that every show has at least 3-5 spins.
I am allowed to stop any challenge that has gone over 90 minutes. I can't stop before that unless it's something so monotonous or uninteresting that there's overwhelming support in chat for cutting it.
5. It's my show and I can change the rules on the fly as I please, and there's nothing you can do about it! 👹👹👹
Enjoy the show!
Don't be a jerk; don't be a bigot; don't expect the benefit of the doubt if you're faking being either for a 'gag'.
I know first hand that being a white guy who streams means that other white guys will show up in your streams and expect to get away with being softly bigoted. I have a zero tolerance policy on that sort of stuff. Don't test me.
