Going live! It's time for more Breath of the Wild! Not sure where we're going tonight, but I'm sure it'll be interesting once we get there. Come say hi! twitch.tv/spookplaysga... (retweets appreciated!)

Hey everyone, so there's been a few reasons why I've not been around much. Reason being someone very loved by myself and my family has just passed, and I'm tweeting this to try and get some help. The link is below if anyone would like to read it further. Thankyou so much. ilyall

When dealing with people who want to gut everything that serves the underserved, attention to framing is everything What's it mean when a compulsory government service to its people is framed as a "net loss in profit" vs a normal expenditure? Why's outsized defense spending not a "net loss"?

Naughty and Nice is back !!!! 🎄 Any donations made to Barrett’s gofundme adds you to the nice list ! We have two wheels this year different perks All the revenue I make through stream in the month of December will be donated to the gofundme on behalf of me and my community

At this point, the moral arc of the universe is on top of a swaying Jenga tower of Jeremiads stacked precariously on top of Jeremiads, waiting for the engineers of that tower's proposed bend toward justice to get off their eternal lunch break.

Tech companies: You don’t understand! If you keep using a four year old phone the economy will die! Me:

It is, in fact, very affirming to hear a health professional use the words "You have a disability" in a direct, matter-of-fact sort of way. Especially after years of feeling like an imposter, all while being derailed in major, concrete ways by long COVID and the bout of burnout that it worsened.

Please Repost! We are in an era of huge gains in technology, discovery and data "sequestration". We need to be honest about what's happening and the terrible outcomes that could happen if we continue the 533 years of colonial extraction. www.science.org/content/arti...

ok let's talk about whatever happened with SAMMI the past day or so live.landie.land making an announcement live too but i'll post about it after the stream for those who can't make it, as it's pretty important

Heads up! To get out of my funk and get back into the groove of what i'm passionate about, I'm going to be releasing some YouTube videos on some much needed tips regarding using OBS. The first of these videos will be titled "When Should You Update OBS? Update Guide" 🧵

"One of the features of living under chaotic authoritarianism is that the pressures are what I think of as “fractal" ... The same mix of incompetence, malice and corruption impact our lives at the smallest level — like access to the blueberries my son eats — and at the biggest — killing people."

i'm a very biased party here but pretty much everything about the Mamdani campaign and the discourse around it thus far is a pretty thorough vindication of Africana Studies

Cringing at myself for writing this, but I had to get it out of my head, and I haven't written an essay for a hot minute. A little essay on the surreality of watching You've Got Mail, a genuinely bat-shit movie. illdefined.beehiiv.com/p/fox

I'm raising money for my friend Maha and her baby to move closer to Khan Yunis. If they can't make this move it's highly likely her son will die. Please help any way you can, sharing helps too ❤️ gofund.me/6e0e27c2

I would love to see Ahmad able to get some help today. He's been through so much and I worry about him. Can you help? gofund.me/69f962fc

Maybe the plagiarism machines use em-dashes because they stole copyrighted work from writers like me who freakin' love em-dashes and use them in all our books.

That pinned message of mine is pretty old now, isn't it? Time flies and leaves so much time to reflect on what's not changing. At this point, I'm actively trying to shift career paths. It was a good run for a good number of years, but teaching w/ chronic illness has been slowly destroying me.

Maybe having an economic system that is so fickle that the whims of one crazy dude can send it crashing into the ground isn't a great idea.

Autism Acceptance Charity Event 💜 Starting in 15 see you over on the Twitcherinos www.twitch.tv/aridotrawr Starting a little early for a warm up 🩷✨ GW2 Map completion later if there's time 🎉

The Rune Level 1 (AKA: No Leveling) Malenia video is out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=FS5h... Out of everything I've done so far in Souls games, this has been the most, like, stimulating and rewarding experience with learning a boss. (Phase 2 is still a mess, but that's a matter for a future RL1 run)

I finally got Malenia on RL1 (no-leveling) today! This comes after cycles of practicing, getting busy/burnt out, taking long breaks, and having to kinda start again from square one. OBS breaks all my recordings, so I'm running it through Handbrake to fix it, but the video will be forthcoming!

King's Field IV OSTs go hard anyway, But also: now that I'm just passively looping tracks in the background while I do things... these things might be better focus music than Mario Kart soundtracks!

Big thanks to jinxedbun for having me on tonight for Episode 4 of JinxedSpeaks! That interview was a blast: the questions were thought-provoking, and the vibes were perfect. I'd highly recommend being there for the next episode, and the next guest! www.twitch.tv/jinxedbun

Cancelling stream today: Just not feeling 100%, and since I won't be able to do the very last play session for Nightreign tomorrow (work Monday), I sort of want to try my hand at it while my focus is a little less split And I have a bad habit of forcing my own hand, so I need to unlearn that lol

First day retrospective on Nightreign: 1. Duchess feels SO NICE to play--that amazing Bloodborne-esque movement is excellent. Only got one chance. 2. I feel like playing this with 2 homies you can talk to in a Discord VC is gonna be the move as things are. Communication's hard w/o a chat or VC.

Lots of exciting things happening over the weekend! Jinxedbun is kind enough to have me on as a guest on her interview stream this Sunday, and I'm very excited to try my hand at Nightreign tonight and tomorrow! (Note: if I run into connection issues w/ Nightreign, we might swap to DS3 instead)

For so many reasons. (Reposting with alt text.)

Twin Cities Pride needs help this year after Target dropped as a sponsor! We will donate what we can and are scheduled to be a vendor there this year! Let's keep this movement going!!

Rather than hopping on the "media literacy is dead", I want to turn things around I can't engage in serious analysis of narratives on places like reddit without people assuming I'm not okay lol. Now I'm thinking it's the limited accessibility of lit crit language moreso than a reception problem.

🙏Ursula K. Le Guin (1929–2018) visionary “The Left Hand of Darkness,” explored themes of democracy, power & societal structures…questioned traditional hierarchies & emphasized the importance of cooperation, equality & diverse voices in shaping just societies 💙🇺🇸💙

Begging, BEGGING medics to learn the difference between "situational anxiety born from hazards" and "medical anxiety born from brain differences." Yes, your actions can MAKE SOMEONE NERVOUS OR FEARFUL. That's not a delusion!

Friendly reminder that there's a SEGA arcade racer about driving an Ambulance that also lets you play as two people pulling a stretcher at 100 MPH

Yesterday at our event we got a question about “hope” and history. Here’s the answer I gave, with help from James Baldwin, Frederick Douglass, and Natalie Zemon Davis. Free to read and share #medievalsky buttondown.com/ModernMediev...

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017
