I'm mad at all the wasted potential of Deadly Towers, especially in the era it was released.

Everything about it was so cool and open and kinda scary, but then you played it and it just sucked ass so bad.

Kids love watching grown-ups screw up, so they really like the show.

The only time I was ever recognized on the street was a 12 year old kid.

Norm @bloatytoe.bsky.social · 14h

Entirely appropriate!

But yeah, it was a blast to do and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Hope you folks enjoyed the episode!

The Nailed It! trophy sits in a place of honor in the dining room.

It's also in dozens of pieces since it was made of spray painted sticks and exploded in the box they shipped it to me inside.

Hey, no stream tonight.

Having dinner with some friends instead of getting mad at Street Fighter.

See y'all on Thursday.

You would think a Sakamoto themed Cafe would just phone it in and serve convenience store food.

At least that would be on brand.

Watching Halloween Is It Cake? and it's making me nostalgic for my own trip to LA for Halloween Nailed It! over 3 years ago.

(Sorry for the photo of my TV. Netflix doesn't allow screenshots.)

Its me on the set of Nailed it Halloween which aired 3 years ago. Im wearing a fake leather apron and the golden baker's cap.

Just watched The Substance.

Goddamn that was a movie.

You don't need a sequel when the original is perfect.

I want to yell at my TV every time I see someone on a baking show pick up a bottle of extract.

Just don't!

No, we're at Bell Works in NJ for the Catsbury Park Cat Convention.

It's been fun for a tiny convention.

Norm @bloatytoe.bsky.social · 3d

Can you tell which one I made at the cat convention, and which one @porkbuns.bsky.social did?

It's a long listen but that 4 part podcast on Thiel's background and idealogy is was certainly eye opening.

It's like they've based a religion on Harlan Ellison short stories.

Because he believes that AI will eventually lead to the creation of either heaven or hell on earth and anyone who stands in the way of the eventual AI God will be punished for eternity.
