I play mostly vehicle based games, but go from one hyper fix to another. My current one? Um, good question, I don't know

Begging y'all to use alt-text for your schedules, for probably the 5th or 6th time. Not only am I not sharing it without alt-text but you're excluding folks that might otherwise want to tune in to your streams.
Attached is one of the best examples / guides I have seen over the years.

Same as last time I realised I need a PC upgrade, a PC part apocalypse has hit nary a few months before I could afford the new build.

Gonna start stream some time in the next 30 minutes if nothing goes awry. Delayed vs initial plan coz work wound up (again) taking waay longer than expected.
Honestly, I'm sorta surprised I found the time and energy to stream given how work has been this week.

Scheduled to stream in about 7 hours; but I likely will stream tomorrow instead as I have a major project I need finished. Or I might stream a few hours later than originally planned. Time will tell~

Surely nothing can go wrong from updating all my streaming stuff a minute before stream. Right?

Finally home and settling in after my holiday.
Looking to get back to streaming, but wondering if I should switch from Friday mornings (EST) to Friday or Saturday evenings. Thoughts, anyone?

I have one ice cream bar in my fridge. Should I make it my last ice cream of 2025? Or the first of 2026?

I'm curious, anyone in my circle have any questions about aviation/flying they'd like answered?
I feel its one of those thingd where people's doubts/uncertainties are often left unanswered for one reason or another.

Just a little PSA: If you have your NSFW flags marked as "show" in your settings, you *will not* see if the posts are labelled. Which means you could be reposting unflagged NSFW. Put everything to "warn" instead, so you don't flashbang your own followers with unflagged NSFW.

It feels weird to not have work that needs doing urgently. Thankful for it all the same.

Today's an... interesting day for me. Dec 26th. Forever it'll be the day of the tsunami.
I wasn't badly affected, house and family intact. I was a lucky one in that regard; but it will always be a day of remembrance to me. I wasn't even 10 at the time, but I still remember the water rushing in.

Same time as usual though, 9am EST if anyone wants to drop by on Christmas day to have a chat while I fly in flight sim.

One of these days, I'll post about my streams before they begin... today's not that day.
Anyway, drop by if you want to hang out while I fly across the Caribbean in Flight Simulator 2020!

Nearly finished catching up to the F1 Season. Just 2 more races to watch.

One unexpected benefit of having to catch up on F1 from so far back (I just finished watching COTA), is that the races were so long ago, I've forgotten any results that I got spoiled about.
