I forgot to post that I went live today successfully (kind of) We're actually sim racing woo! twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

Well... I WAS going to stream tonight but this iRacing build is struggling to install If it finishes up soon then maybe I go live but I am actively watching my PC explode at the moment and I'm not hopeful lol

Sorry gang, no stream tonight. Feeling braindead today and also need to get up early and alert for work tomorrow I owe an iRacing stream though! Let's get some racing in tomorrow night and we'll reschedule the YARG song request stream to a later date. Potentially Thursday! <3 See y'all soon!

Wait, WHO is voicing Yoshi in the new Mario movie????

A little late to address this but no stream tonight - with the clocks rolling forward I'm going to need better sleep so I'm going to try to be responsible and head to bed at a decent-ish hour. I'll be back Monday! ❤️

A little late tonight, but the mood is chill and we're going to LOCK IN tonight, complete some GP cups and unlock some dang retro achievements NOT ALLOWED TO RAGE 🤪 twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

I'm playing through the new NASCAR playlist on The Crew: Motorfest and I have many thoughts

Had a great stream playing some iRCade tonight! It was a shorter stream, but we got through the entire first season of the career and are working up the ladder rather quickly! Super fun to play, glad it's finally out :D And super huge thank you @dieselttv.bsky.social for the lovely raid!!

Time to explore some more demos! twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

Not only did one of my favorite content creators pick up iRacing for the first time, he also called my AI driver a dumbass! 😄 lol pretty great stuff www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztMa...

TND Schedule for the Week of March 2nd, 2026 Little more variety this week (MORE demos tonight, as well as 2 newly released games in the middle of the week, one of them being a collab with @kinglucray.bsky.social) Lots of fun stuff planned this week as well as the next few weeks! :D Can't wait!

Time to Kart 😎 twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

In case anyone needs to hear this right now. Escapism is OKAY. I know every day lately brings another insane headline, but you HAVE to rest your mind. The human brain wasn't meant to process the overload of information we're used to now. DO NOT feel guilty for protecting your peace. Ever.

A little late to stream but I AM streaming soon, will update when live. More MKDS RetroAchievement hunting tonight! :)

And that's that! Just finished up the DLC! Very cute, very fun. Love the new equipment with boosts (very enjoyable ragdolling into things to break them with my skull helmet) and the plot was very sweet. I liked my gator having a formal antagonist to share his friendship wisdom with. A+!

After a day off, we're back at it Tonight we check out some cute shit - Lil Gator Game had some DLC release recently, and this is one of my favorite platformers in recent memory, so we're playing it!! twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

Back on Mario Kart DS chasing those retroachievements! :) twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

That was a fun stream!!! Going to summarize my thoughts on a few of the demos I tried tonight - and try to focus on the positives!!

I'm live and checking out the first demo on deck :D twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

Wow I'm doing schedules now! (this one is a little late, I'm still trying to get in the groove of things) Sat might get switched out with another Sassy collab, but that depends on a number of things - for now, expect what you see on the graphic! Speaking of which - let's play some demos tonight!!

Shoutout to Tyler Reddick who this week, not only won yet another Cup Series race, but also received his 15 year cape in RuneScape lol

Retro achievement hunting tonight in Mario Kart DS :D Twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

I'm live! Getting technical stuff set up but we'll be playing soon :) twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

Planning on playing It Takes Two tonight for the first time with the wifey @rationallysassy.bsky.social, we'll both be live later this evening! :) I know nothing about this game, so it should be a fun time! Her channel: twitch.tv/rationallysassy Mine: twitch.tv/thatnerdyderek

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 :)

Oof..

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 >:(

Alright nerds, make sure to update your Notepad++ if you haven't in a while techcrunch.com/2026/02/02/n...

Man, if you love these you'd REALLY love doing GTA RP lol I'm looking forward to trying them either way

One final push for the month. I appreciate anything and everything everyone can do to help <3 ko-fi.com/lithiumfox/g...

Just let it go...

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.

Absolutely sickening. Abolish ICE.

good day for angry music
