Hey there, space cadets! Sad news: our music bot, Amanda, has been deleted from Discord. We'll try to see if there's any other music bots that support YouTube, but they have unfortunately become more and more rare after YouTube began to strike music bots. Of course, if you have any suggestions, please let us know on Discord!

✨ Community Updates
- Hey, we need some help filling out our Toyhouse world! Due to some recent cleanup, quite a few constellation folders are now empty or have few characters in them (such as Equuleus, Gemini and Canes Venatici, to name a few). We wholeheartedly encourage you to submit your characters to the world! Please contact the mods on Discord if you'd like an invite to the world while it's private.
- We also need new artists to feature on our spotlight! If you have commissions, customs or adopts open, please drop us a line in our artist promo thread!
