@gameonysus.bsky.social all your Slay the Spire talk inspired me to try and defeat the heart which I’ve never done. Beat it with the first two characters in consecutive runs now I’m worried to try for 3 in a row.

I have been sick since the 16th. It's the 27th. I am still sick.
I just wanted you to know that and feel sorry for me.

Mario 65 is a fun little Mario fan game that recreates the classic Mario 64 intro screen, but with Mario a little older and worse for wear.

If you have a pet this is your reminder to make sure you have SHMONEY budgeted for their health stuff. Bruce had to go to the vet today and those tests get expensive QUICK.

2025 was my first year doing freelance work full-time. I traveled across the US and Europe. I wrote more than 80 stories for The Guardian, Aftermath, Kotaku, Rolling Stone, Gamespot, & more. I worked my ass off to make ends meet.
Most importantly, I did work I'm really proud of. Here are my faves:
