My Halloween plans:

Here are the highlights from the October 2025 Soda Shop Meet-up last week! Expect to see these featured on stream in the coming months. 💙💛

If you don't order a coffee AND an orange juice at brunch, you're not on my level 💅

Sub-a-Thon Day 2 starting now 🤓 twitch.tv/backlogboys

Mario Party and chill? twitch.tv/backlogboys Birthday Sub-a-Thon Day 1 🎁 Starting now!

Tomorrow is the first day of the Sub-a-thon Shuffler! Cannot wait 💙💛

we were talkin about Gunpei Yokoi in @permanentviolet.bsky.social's chat the other day and I had to go and watch this incredible video again. youtu.be/uLznLtgcqXI?... Yokoi's story is a huge source of inspiration for me as someone with a lot of eclectic creative pursuits of varying success.

Birthday Sub-A-Thon is gonna be wiiiiiiilllllddd! 11 Mario Party Shuffler, on hardware! I try to win as many parties as possible against Easy CPUs while chat hampers me with modifiers and shuffles the games around. Full rules/breakdown in my discord announcements

Today marks my 600th stream! I'm joined by The Lady™ for some cozy Point and Click! We're continuing our first playthrough of Grim Fandango Remastered 💙💛 twitch.tv/backlogboys

Time to fix the RTC on Boktai and my Gen 3 Pokemon carts! It's so cool how they gave Ruby and Sapphire colorful ringed batteries to match the cartridge shell, but then for some reason Emerald didn't.

This spoke to me pretty hard.

Today I get to start something strange and fun that I've waited a long time for! We're playing ☀️Boktai: The Sun is in Your Hand for GBA. I'm shining a UV flashlight at my GBA player to trigger the solar sensor on the cartridge. I love gimmicky peripherals! Come stop by 💙💛 twitch.tv/backlogboys

I forgot to post yesterday because I felt like junk, but I started Xenosaga Episode I today! I'll be streaming it again tomorrow. First time with Saga, and I'm a bit of a beginner when it comes to the Xeno series (I've only played Gears, Blade 1, and Blade X so far). Day 1 was really promising!

Spooky is a homie and a real one. If you can't contribute to his fundraiser, help him signal boost and watch his streams because he's hilarious, welcoming, and genuine. 💙💛

Mario Kart World is the best Mario Kart game ever made, and it's not even close. 🧵

I beat Star Fox for the SNES today, and Route 3 is one of the most difficult things I've done in a videogame 😤 Excited to try out Star Fox 2 next week!

I started uploading my Final Fantasy Tactics first playthrough to YouTube and I made a watch guide & resources for it. Really happy with how it all came together! I'm trying to give people a customized watch experience while simultaneously avoiding editing. 😅 youtu.be/zykdfAHEmS8

Tomorrow, another big stream journey begins. 🎤💃 We're gonna dismantle 2003 internalized misogyny, relitigate some 🧊 ice cold takes, and propose some hot new ones. 🔥 I'm going to make fun of the game AND find things to love about it. We'll talk Squexit and Final Fantasy HEAVY. Be there. GIRL GAME

I try not to compare myself to others on Twitch, and I try not to focus on "number go up." We all have different pursuits and mindsets. But this feels nice and I'mma have myself a lil moment. 💙💛 Thank you for hangin' with me!

I'm going to unbox my Switch 2 and yap about my WILD experience at the midnight launch last night at the top of stream before we get into FF Tactics! twitch.tv/backlogboys

Hello I'm gonna live post my Switch 2 launch experience (and then go live when I get home)

On this day of remembrance, be sure to fire up your Wii U and gamepad so you don't get bricked by the NAND error.

🧵 This week I'm starting a retro SNES journey and I'm super excited about it so I want to share 💙💛 The Super Nintendo was my first game system and I love it so much. Going live tomorrow (Tue 5/20) at 11:30a CDT to start twitch.tv/backlogboys

It's a 12-hour Sub-a-thon today! Unlocked during charity week back in February 💗 🔧Ratchet vs. Sly 🦝 PS3 Appreciation stream! 1 sub = 1 vote, switch games every hour These are two of my favorite franchises of all time, and I've been especially nostalgic for them lately. twitch.tv/backlogboys

Wait for it

@fantasylife64.bsky.social I don't think you'd have it in you to play a whole ass Xenoblade game, but you need to become more familiar with Nopon because y'all are the same.

@neoncowell.bsky.social just two extremely ian-core images I came across today that I need to share with you

Trying to come up with a to portmanteau 'cozy' and 'good cause' but the matcha hasn't hit yet. 💅

Just checked out the kickstarter for this game and it looks absurdly impressive and ambitious, thanks @spacerobotarm.bsky.social

Them: "you got plans for Halloween?" Me: "yeah it's gonna be a rager" My plans:

The vibe I bring to the function

Why is updating *always* a mistake?

I feel this so completely
