Hi Bluesky!

I'm Tom, Liverpool's biggest and best #twitchstreamer, here some things about me:

👾 I love horror, retro and point and click games
👾 I'm a hobbyist game dev
👾 I'm a practising pixel art doodler

Find me on #twitch every Friday & Sunday at 8pm UK time
⭐ www.twitch.tv/mrtomftw ⭐

This is me. I'm white, with brown hair and a big beard. Greying hair on my temples and beard though. I'm wearing a black denim jacket with various patches and pins on it, and I'm giving the heavy metal devil horns sign with my right hand. I'm also wearing glasses. Behind me are shelves full of video games and various figurines

A screengrab from one of my screens. I'm in the top left, pissing myself laughing, at what? It's not clear. The game just shows two men stood in some sort of medical room.

A screenshot of my game "FORG WANT LOVE" for the ZX Spectrum. It's very 8 bit, and shows a green frog in the lower left who has to make his way up to a heart in the top right without touching any of the magenta cats that are patrolling

A pixel art Capybara, in a pool with oranges and a boba tea floating in the water. The capy looks happy, and has an orange balanced on its head and a white cloth over it's nose

cow tools daily @cowtoolsdaily.bsky.social · 6h

43 years ago today, readers the world over opened their newspapers and gazed upon cow tools for the first time. happy birthday cow tools. you look great.

The original Far Side Cow Tools Cartoon by Gary Larson. A cow stands on its hind legs behind a table, staring blankly at the viewer from behind its heavy brow ridge. On the table are four crudely made tools: a lump, a lump with an offset crooked handle, a long stick with hooked prongs at the end, and a crude handsaw with irregular teeth. In the background a barn sits on a hill. Caption reads, "Cow tools."

Comrade Bowser believes in the redistribution of weath and the abolition of the monarchy. Although I question his methods in repeated kidnapping of the princess

According to a new report from Business Insider, EA is pushing it's 15K employees to use AI for basically everything from "code and concept art to managerial work like scripting conversations with direct reports about sensitive topics such as pay and promotions."

I asked Microsoft PR about this—specially the DHS using Halo IP to recruit for ICE—and the company declined to comment.

Nintendo will sometimes nuke a fan project from orbit for no reason but there wasn't even lip service to rejecting the "Gotta Catch Em All" thing they did for ICE

it's just about exerting control over the powerless

TheHadou @thehadou.com · 16h

Concerns around IP usages in fandom promotions feel made up when the US government is promoting joining Ice with generative AI Halo assets.

It's Sunday evening, I'm live right now on Twitch and today I'm looking at the British tech noir horror game Hollowbody by @headwaregames.bsky.social

I'm calling this one "Emptyhead plays Hollowbody"

Finally watched Parasite.

S'alright

It was quite the experience buying a Series X at launch and then a little while later have them go "ah actually this isn't working out for us so we're not bothering".

MrTom🎃🦇 @mrtom.uk · 3d

I'm live on Twitch and I've just received my Halloween costume in the post. Let's open it up together and see how bad it is 😅

We in the UK need to tread Caerphilly.

Good on Plaid Cymru though 😁 glad to see Reform under perform - they were leading on polls up until last night

MrTom🎃🦇 @mrtom.uk · 4d

Action figures in the bedroom - no
A whole ass water cooler - yes

Still, important to stay hydrated I guess tee hee

it's more the fact they have a water cooler in their bedroom that got me 😁

MrTom🎃🦇 @mrtom.uk · 4d

I went to EGX for 15 years straight. From Leeds to Earls Court to the NEC then to the Excel. I couldn't bear to go now, tragic.

The things you see on Reddit

A screenshot of Reddit. from r/MarvelLegends. It is entitled "My wife only allowed one single action figure in our bedroom. I think I chose the right one". The figure is Iron Man in the super hero landing pose, ON TOP OF A WATER COOLER. They have a water cooler in their bedroom?
