Hasan lives in his head rent free
Andrew Cuomo in front of microphones. Posters of Hasan Piker are behind him with the quote "America deserved 9/11", something he has since apologized for.

This is me saying I played YuGiOh Forbidden Memories with my brother this weekend, and we could not stop laughing at this card
Toad Master card from YuGiOh Forbidden Memories. Aqua/Normal. A hermit frog that has been in existence for thousands of years, it attacks with tadpoles. ATK 1000. Def 1000.

Favourite non-work games from Steam Next Fest were 'BALL x PIT' and 'My Card is Better Than Your Card'.

My least favorite part is waiting for them to launch 🫠
Screenshot from My Card is Better than Your Card. It's full of bright colours and I'm a cartoony style. On the left is a character in an orange tee shirt with a dinosaur on it and wearing an orange baseball cap. On the right is a kid in a fireman's hat and a large water gun. On the screen are various UI elements like cards and a heat meter. Screenshot from the game BALL x PIT. It shows a character in a horizontal trench shooting balls at monsters coming down from the top of the screen.

People were so judgemental when I moved out here, but guess who was able to walk to their local London Drugs at 1pm where they had 9 Switch 2s in stock 🤷‍♀️

Coffee Stain and Isto Inc are the two that are top of mind
