Independent creator of guides, goofs, and good thoughts. You probably know me from Arknights or Foldit.
PharmD CNUCOP c/o: 2022, UC Davis alum. Not licensed to practice, I don't give professional advice.
Friend of Eggbug, for what that's worth. He/him

In lieu of an intro post for pinned, I will tack this up instead. There are many different ways to find out about me; whether you follow what I do on this particular internet outpost is up to you.
I also just don't like the 'Looking for Moots' culture around intro posts, which is why I haven't bothered making one. Interacting and posting about stuff I'm interested in (*when I'm able to do so*) is more reasonable to me than just barfing out a list and expecting everyone to take my word for it.
...Hang on I've seen this one before.

Arknights patch day!
Everyone (except collab/special operators) has EN voices now, which is an impressive achievement no matter what you think of each individual performance.

And the next Integrated Strategies theme is right around the corner too...just when I was looking forward to downtime. 😔

I overslept for Warframe patch day, but I wanted to say it's interesting to me how they handled giving early access to gameplay for newer players so that friends who haven't had the chance to go through the story can join in on farming and catch up on their own pace later. Quite a bold move, DE!

Every so often I've been popping in on a Trickster Online private server that Chuggaaconroy recommended and seeing the main hub town all decorated for Christmas is quite nostalgic.

Though I'm not sure if this statue of a deceased major character being Santa-fied is festive or sacrilegious...

I don't have the money to justify trying out the new Metroid Prime but all I can think about is this edit I made months ago from the Direct

When the narrator said this about Samus's new powers in Prime 4, I couldn't resist:

The best part of POPUCOM was and continues to be this stupid silly physics volleyball minigame. I would buy a standalone title of this.

Ever since the chocolate pasta of Wrath of Siracusans in Arknights I never thought I'd see another video game commit a food crime repulsive enough to make streamers of the represented nationality react indignantly.

Today the YouTube algorithm changed that.

There's a Discord server I was invited to with several notorious Arknights creators that I've finally muted for my hiatus. It feels like day in, day out, there's always something new to complain about, and I just don't have it in me anymore to keep up with those peers, much less collab w/them.

Imagine spending a wind mote to reach RAMMING SPEED 💨💥

Ship combat in general is very basic and undercooked but there's so much potential here. Cannons are clearly ranged, but rams and other physical 'ship melee' options could be so sick. Or imagine a mage crewmate using a magic 'cannon'! Man...
Let me craft a Blisterwood ramming prow & silver cannonballs!

I think I couldn't have watched this at a better time.

I remember reading the SKPort post version of the original Reddit post, but hearing Tomson's narration, letting the visuals sink in...

It doesn't solve all the problems I see before me, but it's "enough to fill a man's heart," so to speak.

I find it odd that we don't craft silver cannonballs to fight Vampyre Kraken in OSRS. We got this whole questline about making specialized anti-vampyric weaponry to even stand a chance against the land-based ones but somehow the bloody octopus falls over to any metal ball to the face? C'mon Jagex.

Calling off Integrated Straterday's stream today b/c:
A: I haven't updated my randomizer yet
B: OSRS Sailing is really fun but nobody's gonna watch me stream it
C: We haven't had much downtime in Arknights and if I'm not feeling it I probably need a break. Next week's schedule will account for this.
November 23, 2025 at 3:25 AM
😩 please I just want downtime to make silly unpopular gamemode videos
Yea our schedule in arknights is booked till december 18th but ill be honest what they do between that date when is6 drops and when our summer anniversary in mid January is i have no idea....

Between Sailing in OSRS and Arknights being double-stacked for events I am most certainly experiencing first-hand what "too much of a good thing" is

Time remains ever a luxury

The light mode joke that Bluesky's official account made didn't really land with me. When we don't even have an option for simple spoiler warnings and find the current official moderation hit and miss, it just kinda reminds me that I'm only posting here because Twitter is the next rung down.

We're so back. Not even a power outage could've stopped this stream! Super excited to play OSRS Sailing on launch, gonna go until I'm tired then probably another stream after I wake up! www.twitch.tv/doctorsockra...

I was super excited to have the opportunity to stay up and stream on the release of Sailing in OSRS but a power outage hit me just now and I do not have faith that I'll get it back in time to start 😢

Hopefully I'll be back in the morning (and I might try playing on my phone before bed anyway 😈)

In about 12 hours from now OSRS launches sailing so I gotta get a move-on with some stuff I've been meaning to finish, like my Radix Chronicle playthrough! Live now, for the afternoon:

Finally back to streaming this week, and it's gonna be a busy week even if I am trying not to stream too much so I can work on projects.
This week's lineup includes Radix Chronicle, Arknights RA & IS, and the big one: OSRS Sailing launch! Super excited to play that and have a boatload of fun.

Imagine having to tell these 2 cats that their video game performance went unheard by some people because of a glitch or oversight that didn't affect the other unit in the game that also has meows by default. 😾

When the rain outside suddenly surges loudly enough to break through my thoughts and give me peace, it's quite nice.

...and then one of the stinky sugar ants taking refuge from the rain crawls onto my immediate surroundings or my desk to remind me that I need to buy more ant bait.

Not fully back to posting schedules quite yet but I am live tonight with something a little different. Been working on something to spice up Integrated Straterdays a little.

What is it? Come find out: www.twitch.tv/doctorsockra...
