If you were at TwitchCon and experienced or witnessed harassment, especially from IRL streamers, I'd like to speak with you for a story.

Please signal boost.

Playing Earthbound for the first time ever in 2025 is fascinating, actually. You're just a kid and the world's gone mad. All the adults are useless at best or trying to kill you at worst. Everyone talks like a crazy person. Everything's too expensive. Your next door neighbor wants to be a dictator.

Ai overview does such an abysmally bad job giving out accurate information, even on simple things.

Ai overview of the 'why not zoidberg" meme confidently and incorrectly explaining the origin and significance of the meme.

Actual information from the Futurama wiki

Despite the issues with it I enjoy the hell out of Echoes but I gotta go with Aria of Sorrow. Such a great game and the music is so good

I just realized the last time #TimeSplitters had a new game was Future Perfect in 2005. I wish we had them come back

I feel that, with current world events, people should really start Journaling or keeping a diary.
Not digital. Physical.
With data and history being purged, it's not a bad idea to chronicle things.

Congratulations Alex. You've grown so much ever since I found your content back in 2012 and have achieved so much. I hope this next chapter in your life brings you untold happiness and joy for years to come

Easily one of the best game I've experienced that handles the exploration of one's faith and search for God

"Bluesky is boring."

Social media *should* be boring. Being algorithm and dopamine poisoned is bad, actually.

When your feed dries up for the day, that's your cue to go do something else until new stuff shows up later.

I watch it all thebwqy through every single year, been a tradition for 12 years now. Fun thing I got the chance to meet Claudia Christian when she came to a local con and I totally fan boyed out meeting someone from my favorite show of all time

Beard Shaman @nordicronin.bsky.social · Aug 27

Same. If you haven't you need to watch Babylon 5. It basically set the stage for Mass Effect in a lot of ways.

I may not be as vocal here due to responsibilities in my life but I'll never forget when I first saw you in a video and actually laughed myself to the point where I wet myself from belly laughing. You have great people in your community Shen and we all have your back, even when you're at your lowest

YouTube is secretly using AI to edit people's videos

• Skin is being smoothed or sharpened

• Features like ears are being altered

• YouTube confirmed there's an 'experiment' on Shorts to 'unblur' and 'improve' clarity

• There's currently no way to opt out

Challenging myself to draw every Bloodborne boss that I beat!

I could not parry for my life in Elden Ring, but was somehow able to pick it up immediately in Bloodborne?? And discovered my love for Viscerals 😍

One thing that I downright didn't like the moment they showed it was the Smiling Titan being Grisha's first wife and being the same one who ate Eren's mom was just stupid I felt and was cliche

Beard Shaman @nordicronin.bsky.social · Aug 26

One thing that I really didn't care for was the explanation of the Ackerman bloodline. It robbed any sense of accomplishment Mikasa or Levi had because they had the ability to be the best fighters around. It wasn't skill they had but rather a cheat code in their blood.
