These Twitch Streamers Are All About The Good Inclusive Vibes

When we started Refinery29 Twitch almost a year ago, we knew we wanted to use it not only to provide a fun, safe space for women and non-binary folks to share in their love of gaming, but also to spotlight the pros, gamers, and streamers who are pushing the status quo in the industry both online and IRL. But with a vast world of content creators competing for attention on Twitch alone, finding streamers who you love can be a challenge. 

Enter Tuesday Takeovers, where we invite some of our fave under-the-radar streamers onto our channel to do what they do best: game. Think of it as the Discover Weekly of Twitch where you’ll have two hours of guaranteed entertainment weekly, while also discovering talented streamers who are more than worthy of you clicking the follow or subscribe button. Ahead, read on to meet the Twitch streamers who are all about inclusivity, connecting with others, and having fun. 

Lillipie101 understands the value in trying new things. As a full-time content creator, she got her start on streaming by focusing on horror games like Dead by Daylight, but recently she’s been experimenting beyond the genre. Now, you can still find plenty of horror gameplay, as well as discussions about art, cosplay, anime, music, and more.

As a lifelong dancer, SupremeSensai describes herself as being an “extreme ball of energy” — and that contagious enthusiasm carries through every one of her streams. She’s an esports host and commentator, an avid player of a wide range of games (including the Call Of Duty series) and loves romantasy books. She’s also the Sr Cxmmunity Manager for Cxmmunity Media, which aims to bridge culture, lifestyle, and gaming for those who are too often overlooked. She’s also a finalist for three 2024 the*gameHERs awards, including winning the Leader of the Year category. 

ColletteNic’s channel is the ultimate hangout space. Apart from gaming content (she’s partial to The Sims and gremlin FPS games), she hosts co-working streams three times a week. During these streams, you can catch Nic and her welcoming community chatting about everything from current events to pop culture and school/work advice.

Honey718 has been a part of the gaming scene for a long time, passionately working her way through the industry to grow her brand (you may even recognize her old handle, PMS Honey). She loves analyzing the gaming landscape, competing in tournaments (her first was in 2005), and is interested in strengthening the connection between video games and urban culture.

As a full-time queer, autistic, and disabled content creator, Queerlybee wants to use their channel to create a wholesome community that feels welcoming for people from any marginalized background. They’re always open about talking about their lived experiences — as long as people broach those conversations with kindness and respect — but also love chatting about reading, crafting, and their two cats. A fan of cozy games, they’re also part of the EA Creator Network (which means they’re not paid by the company, but may get early access to packs) so expect to see them playing games like The Sims 4.
