Guess I should actually mention this every once in a while so that people might actually see this thing when it comes out lol. I have a tiny YouTube channel with a handful of videos where I infrequently attempt to say something novel about games etc. Next video is... Considerably larger in scope.

Live with more Morrowind! Let me know how my audio is; I made some slight adjustments. Maybe we’ll get lost in Vivec City tonight? twitch.tv/JuraalPlays

Let’s Play Vanilla Morrowind in 2026

Man, you can't even log into the console version of Anthem without paying for Game Pass, RIP I guess

I could listen to them talk to each other all day. youtu.be/UYMePP6LEuc?...

Let’s Play Vanilla Morrowind in 2026

Rendering a big YouTube video 🕺

I downloaded Bruce Faulconer’s “Future Trunks” theme so I could listen to it any time, and I believe it took my computer about 36 hours

showing the boys a sick rock i found

First half hour of Tron 3 makes a great impression. Jeff Cronenweth, Greta Lee... 🔥 Probably gonna pause it and head to bed, though.

Death Trooper panel rough

Fuck it I'll eat the plastic tots, send em here

Attack of the Clones (2002) Collateral (2004) The Mist (2007) Little Women (2019)

a new chapter of my fantasy adventure webcomic, Velharthis, is up! yay! Abe and Angie meet up with an old friend, Peter freaks out and almost gets the gang arrested, Jenise is still mad, and Hexten deals with a setback: www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/ve...

Happy birthday Star Tours. That first version of the ride felt like a slice of real Star Wars somehow. Still love it now in its evolved incarnation but a lot of good memories of the original from the ‘dark times’. #130 RX-24 www.liambrazier.com/illustration... #stardraws #startours #starwars

Ms. Rachel is so cool

Just as Fresh Start reached its one-year anniversary (?!!!), I found out that it’s been named as an SCBWI Golden Kite Award finalist. This means a lot!! It’s such a personal book, I am just blown away (and deeply self-conscious) when I hear that anyone’s read it. I will go lie on the floor now.

Absolutely adore this movie

Look I know we’ve got a lot going on right now but I just sent off a really disappointed-yet-respectful email directly to the CEO over this one. The Drafthouse used to be church to me. If they go through with mid-movie phone ordering then what’s the point? It’s over.

Godzilla will promote anything; guy's like Snoop Dogg.

There are few things in this world I love more than Mission: Impossible movies, but Final Reckoning was a mess. I hope we get at least one more.

15/20. I've shamed my family...

The two ways people critique protests: 1. It's an out-of-control mob of crazies suddenly misbehaving! 2. They trained and prepared for this and are protesting on purpose! Amazingly, there is no excluded middle between 1 and 2.

The two ways people critique a union drive or strike: 1. That job is too trivial, anyone can do it! Just replace everyone. 2. That job is too important! The workers mustn't be allowed to stop! Amazingly, there is no excluded middle between 1 and 2.

ok first sketch of the year

We're live! Fresh vanilla Morrowind! twitch.tv/JuraalPlays

I reviewed 50 games in 2025, and now I’m starting off 2026 strong

Hello, I don’t think I’ve mentioned this but I have a 128 page fully illustrated book out written by @russfrushtick.bsky.social Available wherever you prefer to buy books! #illustration #publishing #childrensbooks

I finally sat down with maybe THE perennial Brandon Guy, Gerard Butler, and had a great conversation about Greenland 2, the differences in his many action heroes and a tiny bit on Den of Thieves 3. You can read it here: www.menshealth.com/entertainmen...

Gibson's putting a free Iommi docuseries on YT: www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHZG...

I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment. spitfirenews.com/p/grok-deepf...

Deep Dish Dungeon is going on the wishlist

Will's one of the best there is. Hire him!

For people interested, I have physical copies of Splendor (my zelink comic) available in my store ko-fi.com/s/733423b0c5

I've resolved to be more energetic in promoting Unwinnable this year. Stories deserve to be read! Readers deserve thoughtful stories! These things should be bullshit-free! In more measurable terms, I'd like to get a new subscriber for every day of 2026. So, ahem: unwinnable.com/subscribe/

Made a proper let’s-play for Terminator 2D:

The murder is horrific and traumatizing enough but for us black and brown folks the breathless "this doesn't happen here" / "this is beyond the pale" *compounds* the grief

Here is the fundraiser for Renee Good’s wife and son, from a very trusted source.

I envy that cup. Fully at peace.

New year, new need for pitches. I’m looking for pitches for MMO, RPG, and multiplayer-focused games.if that’s you, shoot me a message or email (which is in my bio)!

Updated this thread with the latest Indie of the Week! Devs, if you have something cool, send us your game/steam page/code to [email protected] and put "Indie of the Week" in the subject line! (This will help us see it)

I had the pleasure of talking to the wonderful Erin Kellyman, whose Jimmy Ink is one of the most fascinating characters we’re properly introduced to in THE BONE TEMPLE…
