Found @loadingreadyrun.com due to their coverage of the Final Fantasy MTG set and it’s rapidly becoming my favorite channel on the internet. So good

I’ve been developing a Magic The Gathering ̶a̶d̶d̶i̶c̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶ appreciation while in Japan.

Jet lag got hands (The general anxiety of being a creative in 2025 doesn't help either)

Yearly post of me asking how creatives stay organized. I've got a lot going on nowadays and I feel like I'm barely on top of it all and boy, that does not help stress levels. Hit me with some tips and strats if you have 'em.

Mappa didn’t have to go as hard as it did with this shot but I’m glad for it Can’t wait for season 3

Remembering how to play mahjong

"I walked by the mirror in the bathroom, and I was like 'Is that me?'"

Champagne for my real friends, real pain for my sham friends

37 today. Thanks for all the good times over the last year. Feeling good and ready for what this next year may bring!

Take a look at what these amazing indie devs were up to at the @evo.gg Indie Dev Gallery this year. Huge shout out to @thebesteban.bsky.social and the crew for coming through and highlighting our Indies this year youtu.be/UjN3EoB3QAE?...

The summer of fighting game events have almost wrapped, but not without the world’s ultimate fighting game tournament, @evo.gg. Read our newest blog to hear about the experience from our Lead Combat Designer, Adam @keits.bsky.social Heart. www.irongalaxystudios.com/blog-posts/i... #PlayKI #Evo2025

One perk of moving is that getting to Round 1 is gonna be much easier. I’m about to go SSJ3 in DDR

I think the new deck is working now

I've had eight hours of sleep finally so I'll say this about Evo 2025: it was a good one overall for the event, but it was busy and at times incredibly stressful for me personally. Think for the most part I did ok, but being a bit hard on myself today for my misses. New role, new challenges.

Finally home from Evo. Gonna rest for a day and then I have to pack for a move on Friday. Pray for me.

Thank you. #Evo2025

"I spent my whole summer playing Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter." @jwonggg.bsky.social's FGC journey started with a quest for friendship.

Exhausted with Evo prep but dragged myself to Round 1 for a DDR session. Breaking some old records and hitting some new consistency on 12s, but need to still work on getting through harder charts stamina wise. Maybe I can hit Gold 3 on @life4ddrbot.bsky.social before the end of the week?

Finally cleared Breaking the Future ESP again after several failed attempts. Able to read at higher speed mods now, so now to get my stamina back up to par to beat my old PB

Been focusing on rest (where I can) on the lead up to Evo. Feeling a bit more productive and generally less fatigued lately (though there’s still a layer of exhaustion from pushing myself too hard for years). It’s hot AF in the house, but still thought I looked good today

Out here just looking for my

Been spending the last few weeks walking away from my desk once work is done and then going out to play Magic or be social. Put a tremendous amount of pressure on myself regularly, so happy I’m learning to come up for air.

I cannot believe I actually hit somebody with this

Need to carve out more time for editing. Feels like I haven’t made anything myself in years. The grind is very real atm, but need to find time to rest and then express myself more

$35 outfit but feeling like a million

Been working with the folks over at @directrelief.org on this for awhile now and can finally talk about it. Three days of fun fighting game activities for charity. Come hang out with us on the lead up to @ceogaming.org!

FGC busy season starts for me this week: CB > SECRET PROJECT > CEO > Evo Plus whatever else may pop up. Excited to be in the mix once again, jet lag be damned

I thought I looked good the other day

Stopped by the Capcom Creation exhibit in Osaka today. It was so cool! Highly recommend it if you have a chance to visit.

Now that I’m getting the hang of my new role, I want to slow down a bit on work and focus on myself. I’ve been grinding pretty hard for close to a decade and every day I feel this wall of exhaustion that pushes back more and more. Probably have a long road to recovery, so might as well start now.

Off to Tokyo for Evo Japan!

Dropped 9 pounds in time to eat everything in Japan and gain it all back. Can’t wait

Finished the main story of Expedition 33 last night. Not sure if I liked where the story wound up, but I’m addicted to the combat and art of the game. Also the music is fantastic, especially some of the tracks in the final areas of the game. Good game. Might try to do all the achievements.

Send me all the B.Jenet tech please

When you're in the hustle and bustle of it all, It's easy to push harder, but I took a weekend for myself to slow down and I am feeling it. The airports. The schedule. The quiet hotel nights with beds that are a bit too big for one person. Motivated and determined, but boy am I fucking tired.

When I find a parking spot in Philly

Really enjoy cooking. Puts me in a flow state that’s so hard to attain nowadays. Improving slightly each time

Coming up on two years with Evo soon. Pretty wild how fast time is flying, but I'm learning a whole lot. Hope you've been digging the work we're putting out but we're only getting started.

I've been sitting on a half completed vlog from Evo Japan last year that I'm either gonna just put out for patrons or scrap entirely. Not quite sure yet, but I really want to do more personal/vlog style videos since I travel so much. Any interest in a year old vlog?

The itch to stream is getting louder The schedule to do so is not, however

I was reminded about Barkley, Shut Up and Jam: Gaiden and I had core memories unlock like that scene from Ratatouille. I may need to play it again soon.

Been so lazer focused on work that I really have let my passions (and a bit of my health) decay on the sidelines. Easy to beat myself about it, but I have been traveling a bunch lately. Gotta make time for the things that bring me joy moving forward.

First non work Saturday I’ve had in awhile. Just played Monster Hunter and watched Severance all day. Nice to be able to chill for a change.

Fuck “good” We demand great

Really dug this

My 5080 comes in this week. I can finally play Alan Wake 2

I want it all

I hyperfixate on failures to the point where it warps my perception. "I haven't made a @holdbacktoblock.com video in forever, hence I'm a failure" But when I zoom out I can see that my team and I have produced close to 130+ videos for Evo at a rate of 2 - 3 videos a week for nearly two years. Wild.

My life right now is like that part in “tv off” where Kendrick yells but instead of saying “Mustard” he says “JET LAAAAAAAG”
