Occasionally I make money playing video games and talking on the internet. Mostly I'm just here to make you laugh though. twitch.tv/timmygruesome

Well, probably gonna have folks meetin' me for the first time here and stuff.

Hi. I'm Tim. I play video games on Twitch, swear more than I should, and generally just try to make ya smile and laugh.

If that's your thing, go ahead and follow. Just don't be weird about it.

A friend literally posted pics of their grandma's final breaths on Facebook today.

That's already a little fucked up, but then she also used the same filter she uses for her attempted "cute" selfies when she did so. That's... That's a couple extra layers of fucked up tbh

Startin' the OG Alan Wake over on #Twitch!

Question for those still playing #Destiny2 atm:

1. Is the quest to get the axe going away after this season?

2. Is it worth hopping on to do? Like, is it gonna actually hamstring me in regards to top builds if I don't bother?

Sincerely, someone who wasn't planning to play again til Renegades.

Tonight we finally get creepy.

Beginning the Remedy Connected Universe proper with Alan Wake, starting around 11PM EST over on Twitch.

Bring a flashlight.

Got a splitting headache that won't quit, so maybe we'll hold off on Alan Wake til tomorrow

Timmy Gruesome (not pictured) @timmygruesome.bsky.social · 4d

Thanks again everyone who dropped by the #Fortnite stream.

Back to playing actual good games tomorrow with Alan Wake.

At risk of sounding more defeatist than I intend, have you given any thoughts to what you might stream in a post-Destiny landscape?

I ask just out of curiosity. Not to be one of "those" Destiny community members, lol

Huh.

Goal idea: start streaming regularly again, get just profitable enough to pay the car payment off Twitch revenue.

Since retiring my mother's whole gimmick has become saving everyone money.

Told her obscure costume parts I needed to buy and she just pulls 2, 3 coupon links out of her ass like she has that shit hotkeyed in her inventory.

Finally back to streaming with Abiotic Factor with the Looters tonight, starting around 11PM EST!!!

Timmy Gruesome (not pictured) @timmygruesome.bsky.social · 14d

It's spooky season.

Gonna start streaming more and playing more horror-tinged games now. I have a bunch that need playin'.

"You don't have kids, you don't understand."

Really, cuz where I'm standing only one of us saw the world burning since at least Reagan, and was like "I don't wanna bring a life into this bullshit" lol

Having rockstars for friends is weird because my buddy will be talking about "hanging out at Henry's" and he means Henry Rollins and not Henry's Diner, the local restaurant.

#Fortnite's Daft Punk Experience is fucking AMAZING.

But me me me me me, Hazel!

Every piece of endgame Destiny content I've ever done has been with this man. He's a dear friend and one of the best raiders I've ever played with.

I may no longer play (currently at least), but Higgins does and would make an amazing addition to your raid night.

Higgins8🦊2 @higgins802.com · 19d

I miss raiding in Destiny.

I gotta find a new crew.

(No shade on the Looters, they are still ride or die, and we've been binging a lot of other great games together.)

Seriously, get Higgins in your squad. I've done HUNDREDS of raids with him, he's fantastic and fun!

Timmy Gruesome (not pictured) @timmygruesome.bsky.social · 19d

I miss it too. They find a way to make modern content fun for me again and I'll be right there.

Ball is in Bungie's court on that. Still happy to play literally everything else under the sun with you.

My only real contribution to the gaming industry was that I think I personally talked Ubisoft into selling R6 Extraction for $40 following a playtest I was part of.

My exact words were "You can't sell this at full price. This test copy was free, and I still want a refund"

Timmy Gruesome (not pictured) @timmygruesome.bsky.social · 19d

I gotta say, while I'm still saddened by the current state of Destiny 2, it has opened up time and hard drive space for all of the really good stuff that has come out in 2025.

Timmy Gruesome (not pictured) @timmygruesome.bsky.social · 19d

I will never understand the average person's need to just use this stuff to bitch about the games/shows/movies/books that they hate.

It's like, okay, then... don't read or watch or play it then?

Are people just that addicted to misery?

The only proper way to try to talk your buddies into playing #WWE2K25 with you:

Planning to play some Abiotic Factor on stream with 5 of my idiot friends in like 45 to an hour.

Come by. It'll be funny.
