I recently started achievement hunting through my steam backlog (recently being like the last few years lol) and have been having a good time doing it. Might track what games I'm completing here for funzies. I'm onto game #25 currently :D
Man, I was loving all the positivity from the award show and seeing the devs get their praise, and then remembered that I work in the same industry as them.. Those are my people! I've been doing this since '22 and I still forget that haha.. wild. It made me a little emotional! I love video games. 😄

I had zero clue the DICE Awards were tonight and that makes me sad. They really should market it more, it's the best game award show that's about the awards. It's refreshing to see hardworking developer teams receive the kudos the deserve!

Sorry in advance but I'm forcing another rebrand on myself. Having ttv in my name everywhere was torture and felt very cringey. I think I like this better.. We'll ride it out and see :)

I played my bass guitar on stream tonight and it was very fun, but man I realized I'm hella out of shape - I felt like I went to the gym after 2.5 hours of playing standing up holding a bass lmao
Lots of sound issues and stuff but it was all really a test. Hopefully I can do some more in the future

I wish GenAI stopped progressing at the point of "make silly dumb videos" and people didn't use it to make horrible, offensive content and also it didn't require the entire collapse of our environments and precious resources to generate this shit
I'm ready for it to go away forever please

Spent 15 minutes contacting TSN, since they replaced the listing for the race off the Live portion of their site, and I accidentally closed my browser so now I can't watch it.
Now I have to use sketchy ways to watch >:(

Okay I tried tonight but the ol brain ain't cooperating. Going to figure things out and try one more time tomorrow. Sorry gang. Anxiety is lame!
Pausing the doomscrolling to partake in some very brief escapism, with a small announcement
Starting Monday night, I'm going to ACTUALLY attempt (strong emphasis on that word) to begin regular, nightly late-night streams. Streams will start at various times, but usually between 11pm-1am.

The Fall Guys Crown Jam game in Fortnite looks so fun and is graphically lovely to look at, but it is equally upsetting because it's a great glimpse into what a Fall Guys sequel could be if Epic had half a brain to invest into that franchise properly

I'm learning lua! Very easy language to learn so far. Would love to mod some GTA FiveM stuff.
Also, as a goal for this year, I'm wanting to prototype a new web-based project. It's a personal passion project but it is iRacing related. Hoping to get some mockups and stuff done for it soon. :)

I'm thinking we stream Super Mario Advance 2 tonight. I've never seen/played it before, and with SMW being one of my favorite games of all time I'd like to sit and compare/contrast the two versions :) should be fun.
RetroAchievements will be on as well, because I'm an achievement addict 🤪
