finally hit the gym after 4 days off from being sick and my mind feels better and I also got a coconut Vietnamese coffee so my mind feels even better

Rewatching End of Evangelion after playing Persona 3 again last year and having it so fresh in my mind cemented how much P3 was influenced by NGE and reminds me why I hated the good end of P3 originally.

Being a parent means I get to watch my favorite media with someone and I watch them go “wtf just happened holy cow…” (This post sponsored by both The Sixth Sense and Evangelion.)

I ended up deciding to archive everything on YouTube in unlisted videos on my old LP channel. I deleted ~1000 hours yesterday (mostly playthroughs I don't think anyone cared about) and uploaded somewhere between 300-600 hours in the last two days. I still have 1,300 hours to remove.

For those of you who don't know, I resigned from my role as Safety Lead for Games Done Quick. I have a lot of thoughts and feelings regarding this, as I'm sure you can understand, but I'm not going to publicly speak on them now. I wish the best for the company.

"only .5% of streamers will have to delete any videos" what is a "streamer" in this case, twitch? anyone who streamed more than once ever?

I've been streaming since 2011 on Twitch. I have over 2,500 hours of saved broadcasts of playthroughs that are special to me - first playthroughs of games and more. Because of this new limit, I'm going to have to do a LOT of work over the next 2 months to archive them. Otherwise, I lose it...

You ever realize you gotta go to urgent care right before they close when it’s 5 degrees out? At least I’m in the waiting room now. (I will be ok - I am just annoyed about having to come here.)

There’s a reason a huge segment in Start Running is about cave diving… fuck that noise …….

The Traitors UK S2 was legit Death Note and if I explain any further it’s spoilers. Best season of any franchise.

What I truly want is a Dungeon Chill/YourFavoriteSon lore video about any of my games. I want someone to pick clean my world’s skeletons and throw the bones in my face

It’s here! Volume 2 of Sprigs and Kindling, and this time is a whopping 146 pages of free stuff dedicated to The Between by @gauntletrpg.bsky.social! A huge thanks to @iamatrex.com and everyone on the team who pushed to get this huge issue out

oops my secrets are being revealed

Working on another game, one that’s going to take me more than the year that Start Running did… if I was Toby Fox and I knew people liked my work, it would be good encouragement but I’m making into a void most of the time. And yet I’m gonna just keep making whatever weird ass shit I think of… :)

It’s so hard to want to be creative when the world is like this

It's so weird getting ghosted by a company you worked for for a long, long time especially when you know all the things you know... you know?

this week has been Too Much

Lady Gaga is a fucking BARD and I am SCARED OF HER.

A sad update: my time freelancing at VG247 is coming to an end, my main source of income, so I'm looking for work! Need someone who can write about games, anime, film, & TV? I can do those things! I'm also open to PR, dev, and publishing roles! RTs appreciated, contact info and links below!

at 40, I realize that the 20 year old me was not dumber but they were more irrational, less educated by experience, unable to be patient in the same way age has tempered me watching my 13 year old kid echo my 13 year old self makes it even more evident

three photos of me

me writing down ideas: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! me writing the code: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

today was my 100th class at the gym bench -> 55x5 -> 70x6 strict press -> 40x5 -> 65x1 deadlift -> 95x3 -> 110x5 back squats -> 75x8 -> 100x5 clean -> 60x1 -> 70x1

I get better at art but I don’t stop being a perfectionist or seeing the flaws in everything I do which means I’m not getting better 🥲

It’s such a small world I say as two of my online friends from different internet worlds interact on Bluesky while another posts a screenshot of someone I used to talk to in the 90s over dialup who probably doesn’t remember that I exist.

If you like my pngtubers or my phenomenal crow mask art, Gen is the way to go. They really have a unique style and take feedback well in order to deliver exactly what I’ve needed. I’ve worked with them for many years and every time it’s been a good experience.

Only through sheer will have I improved at art. I started out with nothing and now I’m still nothing but the nothing is easier, faster, more reliable to make. I have more ideas, more knowledge, and probably more time on earth to get better.

This season of The Traitors is literally unwatchable. It’s actually so brutal to watch how bad everyone playing is.

Only have a kid if you understand that it will mean dismantling all of the trauma that your parents did to you in order to be a good parent. Know that the work you do to unlearn that bullshit will be the most rewarding thing you ever do in your life.

Hey y'all! Finished a Game Jam for @piratesoftware.live today! Made a cute little 3D Platformer with @asherwaves.com @gabrielgxd11.bsky.social and CQ Would really appreciate if y'all checked it out! itch.io/jam/pirate/r...

art uses tools: lumps of clay, guitars, oil paints some people use more support: 3d printers, DAWs, drawing tablets these still take months if not years of skill to learn how to use. anything fulfilling is worth actually spending the time to learn how to actually do it.

Thomas lived because their handler showed up to assist, but after hearing Agent Nike’s final words (“remember that thing I promised you?”), and finding out that neither of the other two Agents know what that meant either, his obsession with knowing the truth is going to cause him to snap.
