Crackin' cheese Gromit... ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿง€๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ”ฅ

Many people speak of their totem or symbolic animal that guides & defines their inner self ๐Ÿค” For me, that's always been Wile E. Coyote. His indomitable will & stubbornness to keep getting back up, despite everything that happens to him, has always inspired me! Maybe this makes me weird... โ˜บ๏ธ

This week's been a long week, and it's only Wednesday ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ So much to do and so much adulting to be done because of IRL stuffs. So beyond 'perma-knackered' mentally at this point... ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿง 

My beautiful & amazing friend, #chaotic_neutral_9 is now only 6๏ธโƒฃ Followers away from her next #MegaMilestone over on the #PurplePlatform ๐Ÿ’œ It would mean a lot to me, if you'd go and check out her stream & show her the love & support she so readily shows others ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐ŸŒŸ www.twitch.tv/chaotic_neut...

Last night's impromptu stream with Lara was a great distraction and was a good first step to getting back to 'normality' ๐Ÿค” Many thanks to #MiddleAgedGamerGuy, #Lilmizzhustler and #OneBigBeast for the raidy raids also! We sent the love over to Mr. #BurlyMenGaming afterwards โค๏ธ

It's been the week from hell since last Thursday, but I'm slowly coming out the other end and getting on top of all the things I've gotta do now ๐Ÿฅบ Hoping to get back to some semblance of 'normal' soon ๐Ÿ’ฏ Thank you all for being patient and 'bearing' with me during this emotional time... ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’”

Grief effects people in wildly different ways, and comes in various stages ๐Ÿฅบ Guess I'm at the 'shoulda, woulda, coulda' stage at this point in time ๐Ÿ˜”๐Ÿ’ฏ I really hate this feeling... ๐Ÿ˜–

I received some devastating family news yesterday, so I shan't be as active or supportive as I normally can be on socials or communities! Please send all the positive vibes you can spare and bear with me during this very heartbreaking time! Thank you... ๐Ÿ’”๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜“

Thanks to the incredible generosity of one Mr. @thunderphoenixuk.bsky.social, I was lucky enough to be able to win a digital copy of #UntilDawn for #PlayStation5 during his recent #Streaming4Sands charity streaming event ๐Ÿ’€๐ŸŒ„ So expect spooky shenanigans on stream in the near future from me... ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Does anyone else remember a time when coffee actually did a 'thing'?!? Yeah. Me neither... ๐Ÿ˜ดโ˜•๏ธ ๐Ÿ’ค #MondayMood #MondayMusing

Thanks to everyone who came by my 'last stream for Sands' this evening. It was a lot of fun to play with friends and rounding off my fundraising experience with @Streaming4Sands ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’– Despite few technical hiccups with audio, fun was had by all. Thanks to everyone who came by and supporter... ๐ŸŒŸ

But wait there's more... Join me this evening for one last 'Stream For Sands' to round off my amazing experience raising awareness for this important Charity ๐Ÿ’– Playing Marvel Rivals badly, soon over on the #Twitch-Verse at: www.twitch.tv/GamesGuru1 ๐Ÿ”ด Everyone's invited to join ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’ฏ๐ŸŽฎ #SandsUK ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

New plan:

If the term 'cut my nose to spite my face' actually did that physically, then I'd be looking more like Lord Voldemort of Skeletor after all these years ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’€ It's one of my more, frequent toxic traits... ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

๐Ÿšจ GOING LIVE ๐Ÿšจ After a brief hiatus after a weekend of charity fundraising I'm back over on the Purple Platform from 12:30PM GMT to for more Guarding The Galaxy shenanigans ๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿ’ฅ Find all the chaos here at: www.twitch.tv/GamesGuru1 ๐Ÿ’œ To see how the story unfolds... ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ•น #GamerDad #UKGamer ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง

I've seen a lot of people do this recently, so I thought I'd officially jump on the bandwagon too ๐Ÿค” Here's my 'Then & Now' and unlike many peeps who have matured like a fine wine in the last decade, I seem to have matured like old mouldy cheese methinks... ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ๐Ÿท๐Ÿง€ #ThenAndNow2025

๐Ÿšจ IMPORTANT UPDATE ๐Ÿšจ I'm absolutely delighted to announce that I'll be attending #FormatGG once again this year on the 30th - 31st October in Liverpool as an officially licensed Content Creator! Time to once again step outta my comfort zone! Who else will I be seeing back there with me?!? โ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ•น

The cull is complete!!! I was a lot more brutal this year with the clear out methinks. However, my social channels feel a hecka lot 'lighter' now that all the VTubers and GFX Artists have been removed ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’ฏ Some people also got upgraded to the coveted 'Blocked' list too... ๐Ÿšซ๐Ÿ˜

It's now time for my annual social networking cull. Gonna be clearing out a lot of people, channels & links from across all my social platforms. I find it is kind of cathartic for me ๐Ÿค” If you can still see and interact with me afterwards, congrats you made the cut this time... ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿซฐ๐Ÿป

Don't forget, the team is still @Streaming4Sands all this week too with charity and donations linky links for @JustGiving still live adding to the already incredible total raised. Never too late and all amounts greatly appriciated and received... ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ’œ www.justgiving.com/page/gamesgu... #SandsUK

When your work colleagues try to wind you up first thing in the morning, completely forgetting you're already too emotionally stunted and dead inside to actually care... ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ™„

Over the weekend, the team has absolutely smashed their goals by raising an incredible ยฃ4,500+ collectively for @Streaming4Sands with that total going even higher this week๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐ŸŒŸ I couldn't be more proud of each and every one of them, especially the amazing @TheMrsQuack ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ฏ #SandsUK #Streaming4Sands

After a very emotional weekend just were I was @Streaming4Sands with many amazing peeps, my mental spoon-ometer is dangerously low now and the brain-gremlins are making a move ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿฅบ So I'm taking a day or two time out to recharge. However I'll still be around if anyone needs me! ๐Ÿ’ซ

๐Ÿšจ BACK LIVE ๐Ÿšจ Live again tonight with part two of my epic Sands Streaming Shenanigans, all in aid of a fantastic cause ๐Ÿ’ซ Find me on the Purple Platform at: www.twitch.tv/GamesGuru1 ๐Ÿ’œ From 9:30PM GMT and watch me rage at 'cute 'n cosy' game Fall Guys. Come join me.. ๐Ÿคฌ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐ŸŒŸ #SandsUK #Streaming4Sands

The closer we get to my charity streaming shenanigans turn this evening, the more my aniexty and worry increases ๐Ÿ˜ณ Will I do the event justice? The quality of content already from today from other creators today has set the bar incredibly high! Guess all I can do, is my best as always... ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’ฏ

Today marks the beginning of a very important weekend for a lot of us Content Creators, as @Streaming4Sands begins! Please join myself and other amazing Streamers over two days of fun, laughs, shiggles, support, fundraising and most importantly awareness for a wonderful cause ๐Ÿ’ซ

Now that the adulting is done for the day, it's time to play (hey that rhymes) ๐Ÿ˜„ Join me live soon over on the Purple Platform at: www.twitch.tv/GamesGuru1 ๐ŸŸฃ As I attempt to Guard The Galaxy in Marvel's Guardians Of The Galaxy ๐ŸŒŒ๐Ÿ’ฅ Feel free to come say hi... ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ฏ๐ŸŽฎ

Today streaming shenanigans and general adulting is fueled by a new flavour of @WraithEnergy I haven't tried yet, 'Slayer Mango' ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐ŸŠ If it's anything like the other flavours thus far, my taste buds are in for a treat! Needs to be punchy enuff to keep me going... โ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜

Shame this meme only works if you don't actually work all weekends of the year ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿคจ After a very long, stressful day with work and such I'm gonna call it a night, try and rest and reset my brain to get rid of the ol' brain gremlins ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿง  G'night everyone... ๐ŸŒŸ๐Ÿ’ค

Is it wrong to want people who are in your lives to message you first sometimes?!? Some of the people I care about deeply never chat or message unless I make the first move ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ’ฏ I'm no stranger to one sided conversations, but I'd be lying not to say it bothers me often... ๐Ÿ˜•๐ŸŒŸ

Along with my legends I personalty admired and looked up to who are sadly no long with us such as Robin Williams and Terry Pratchet, Stan Lee could always be counted on to say and do the right thing. Not for fortune, not for glory, but because it's just right. Something I always try to do myself!๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ˜Š

Good news everyone... ๐ŸŽฎ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ•น I'm pleased to announce that I am once again going to @Format as a Content Creator on the 30th - 31st October 2025! Really excited for a fantastic gaming event and super happy and thankful to be invited back! Who else will I see there this year? Save the dates ๐Ÿ“…๐Ÿ‘พ

๐Ÿšจ And now for something completely different ๐Ÿšจ Yes, you see before you an actual Stream Schedule for the week ahead ๐Ÿ“… Many thanks to the amazing @Ladydollx for designing such an epic layout for me ๐Ÿ™‚ Chaos culminates in my #Streaming4Sands Shenanigans over the weekend ๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ฏ๐Ÿ‘ถ #CharityWork #BusyWeek
