The thing they don't tell you about grief is how you can have a completely normal day, make a million jokes, play video games, just coolin'...and then just cry out of nowhere at night. That said, don't fight that. Let it be.

I legit hate Apple Music. If you've ever had a music library of your own with things like mixtapes and such, getting Apple Music to let you listen to those songs anywhere other than your computer can be like pulling teeth if they say it's not eligible for the iCloud Music Library.

All of that "if you block me, I win" shit is literally just reverse psychology cope from unlikable niggas. Block them anyway.

I enjoy just playing a game and uploading the footage of me playing the game to YouTube. I’m a very simple man.

There’s people in this world that live comfortably and happy. They just live in other places. And that’s what woke me up.

When my daughter asked me to play this game, I was expecting it to be kinda like Undertale/Deltarune because she was so big on those games when they came out. Nope. Nope. ENA: Dream BBQ is nothing like those. youtu.be/R4vx1KpM0NE

I tried to start using my Xbox more. I ended up back on my PC, Switch 2, and PS5 again. Lemme just gon' head and stick to PC Game Pass, bro.

I’m not okay but I’m gon’ be alright. Word to Earl Sweatshirt.

I've realized that trying to watch Squid Game during everything going on around us right now really ain't vibing with me.

Every time I feel lost in life, I just remind myself, "that's what Beans would do".

One of the things everyone talked about at my father’s funeral was how everything he did, he did with passion. From sports to music to dancing to activism. And it made me think about how I was JUST like that until some years ago. I need to get that back.

I was gonna stream on YouTube tonight, but ended up editing last night’s Twitch stream to upload instead. ENA: Dream BBQ is a very strange game.

Clipse remind me of what I loved about rapping. It's been fun watching this rollout.

That Tim guy wasn’t wrong when he said that gaming streams ain’t really getting the love on Twitch like they used to in comparison to IRL/Just Chatting. I’ve peeped that for a couple years now. It is what it is.

I love the fact that just being myself has always kept me cool enough. There's been a couple times I stepped outside of that and I rightfully felt as wack as I should have, but that was minimal. You learn from it. But watching folks chase validation? Wild.

Trading Clayton to get two more picks this draft (plus a couple 2nd rounders next year) is a good deal. The Wizards already have enough good guards - having 3 more draft picks to look forward to this year is a win.

My Wizards got Tre Johnson and I'm happy with that. Ace Bailey woulda been cool, but Tre is a better fit. Sad that Derick Queen got snatched up before we could make our second pick though. Wonder who we'll end up with now.

NBA draft time.

Going to play a game my daughter suggested to me. Come through and see what weirdness shall ensue! www.twitch.tv/BacklogRobYT

There was such a solid moment from my father's funeral yesterday that I can't really find the words for, but man...my family so dope. Me and my brothers are at the best we've ever been and I'm grateful for that.

I'm literally signing up and donating to @demsocialists.bsky.social because they get it Speak to people like HUMAN FREAKING BEINGS AND DON'T TREAT THEM LIKE JUST A NUMBER! It's time to abandon the establishment @democrats.org who thought it was a good idea to run a sex pest and a crook...

A very long day, man. But I’m happy. Said goodbye to my pops for the last time. Funeral was love. Whole OG Riggs Park and Michigan Park was in there. Love my family. And they finally up out my crib so I can get some good sleep lol

My family is loved, man. I get so caught up in my own stuff sometimes and forget that, but we really that in the city.

Waiting for this melatonin to kick in so I can just doze off and get tomorrow over with. I hate funerals, man.

I really need to play this game soon.

Deus Ex (2000) Happy birthday to a real one

Being 37 without my hairline receding or any grey hairs is kinda wild.

The way Google/YouTube pulling that Veo 3 data scraping bullshit got me back to streaming to Twitch and only using my iPhone instead of using my Android phones or streaming to YouTube is kinda wild.

GamePro #225, June 2007 - 'Tony Hawk's Proving Ground' cover.

Had some talks. I won’t cut YouTube out. But I’m definitely going to be supporting every effort in them catching hell for how they did that data scrape for their AI. Also gonna be using Google alternatives as often as possible in my daily life.

I was just about to go live to start Deltarune Chapter 3 - literally the moment before I hit the button, a tree falls into my backyard. Well then.

I used to write Tom Joyner's Little Known Black History Facts for the last five years of his time on the radio. Here is an updated Fact regarding Juneteenth's history. #Juneteenth #BlackHistory - blackamericaweb.com/2024/06/19/t...

Today was a good reminder that I got work to do. Content to make. Less distractions, more beating games and creating around such.

Everybody can’t be saved. Always gotta remember that. Leave folks where they want to be.

I have fully accepted that if I play a RPG and somehow reach the endgame but I'm too underleveled to beat the boss, that's just the end of the game for me. Happened with Terranigma and now happening with Expedition 33 lol

So many games to play. So many get lost in the mix.

Irv Gotti really made the best Swizz Beatz beat ever on Ja's "Murda 4 Life". I will not explain further.
