Handling it. (by u/auroraaaaborealis)
(AI Alt-Text)

It is with a heavy heart that I must share with you that Kota, which many of you knew as Birdthings, has recently left us.

You may remember them as an eccentric character, a sharp and insightful thinker, an outspoken presence, a wonderfully unique soul, and of course, a precious bird. To me, they were all of those things, and most importantly, my dear friend.
I first met Kota in 2022, when they confronted me about our shared identity crisis.
Apparently, we looked so much alike that people would often mistake one for the other.
It became a running joke, with a constant stream of people asking me if I was Birdthings, and asking Birdthings if they were me. Through this silly mixup, we grew close.
I had the privilege of getting to know Kota. To understand who they were, what they meant to so many, and just how brilliant they truly were.
The last time I spoke with Kota was on June 26th, 2025.
They were feeling overwhelmed with the pressures of life and work. I told them that things would be okay, that I loved them, and that I was eagerly looking forward to seeing them in VR again.

On June 28th, they left their final words behind. To my deepest regret, I didn't see their message until later, when someone else pointed it out to me.

I have nothing but empathy, respect, and admiration for Birdthings. In the beginning, I looked up to them.
As our friendship blossomed, I was happy to stand by their side.
I never imagined that I would one day be standing here alone.

As we all know, Resonite is a very small community, and I am almost certain that even if you never crossed paths with them, their reputation preceded them.
In their honor, I will be creating a memorial world for Kota.
If you have any pictures, videos, comments, or words you wish to share, please get in touch with me so I can add them to the world.
Alternatively, you can drop anything in the Discord: https://discord.gg/XFQDEFHz

There is a GoFundMe page that goes towards their memorial services. All of my Twitch revenue for the month of July and August will also be going towards this fund.
This is NOT an incentive to subscribe.
I just wish to truly thank those who do, and inform them of what their donations are contributing to.
If you find it in your heart to be charitable, please directly donate to the GoFundMe page:
