No stream today. I had to go to the ER last night (I’m fine. Well, not really, but I’ll be fine in two weeks when I’m done with the antibiotics) and I need to go to my doctor today. I’ll see you all in a few days! ❤️

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

I fight some shadow guys, fight some fish, get banned from saying a word, spill water on myself, complete a few bundles, talk a lot about trading card games, feel a little miserable, and much more!

From the venerable UNCUT way back in 2003, a selective critical listing of the band’s mid and later-period “singles” (1988-2001). Particularly fun to see the guys’ realtime reactions to some of these songs.

Easily one of my favorite albums. Favorites are either Hairshirt or the untitled track, but that can change on every listen

There's a round of GOTY discussion going around, and I realized that a lot of my favourite games this year have been absolute Sicko Picks.
So here's a few games I've loved so far in 2025, starting with a mild one: Babushka's Glitch Dungeon. A scrunkly lil' puzzle-metroidvania with so many fun verbs

I just got back from a walk. While I was walking through the park, a little white boy and his father flagged me down from the very other end of the park. Now to be fair, I have on my hat on, so I’m easy to spot lol. The little boy drew me this. A month ago. He has been waiting to see me again.

Aping GamerGate, Trump and Bannon instilled distrust in the mainstream media. Now, social media platforms are where many Americans get their news--platforms that are beholden to algorithms and the whims of their owners.
That's why a South African sociopath can spread disinformation like this.
