Introducing a week of streams to help raise money for our dear friend Brenden and his partner Jen as she continues to battle Myasthenia Gravis. All money goes to their hospital bills and peace of mind during these difficult times. Hope y'all will tune in.

That’s one of the worst Vikings losses in years. But I made friends with a dog named Roscoe tonight at the bar so I’d say tonight is a win.

Rolled credits on Clair Obscur. The narrative risks this game takes (and pulls off imo) are astounding. Big swings like that separate good games from great ones.
Combine that with a fascinating world and some of the best combat of the year, and it amounts to one of my favorite RPGs of all time.
