My husband just informed me that he's making Moscow mules tonight.

Thanks to those who came to visit for my first stream! I had no idea what I was doing and didn't know what I wanted out of gameplay 😅 Definitely going to stick to recording more than streaming. My brain and body do better in short bursts than long runs 🙂‍↕️ New episode coming out Monday!

I'm here! Come join me and watch me struggle to do my best :x studio.youtube.com/video/xKkdux...

Having technical issues so I'm doing my best to get started. Hold up 🫡

THE DEETS: I'll be going live today at 1 pm EST on YouTube! I figured it would be easier to stay there since that's where the rest of my content is. For anyone joining me, I'll be sharing the link around that time or my channel is linked in my bio. This horde doesn't stand a chance 💀🔥

Good morning, folks! I have some grocery shopping and another obligation this morning. Then I'm apparently doing a live stream of Days Gone because that's what I said I would do 🫠 Hope everyone has a great day! Feel out your needs for this weekend and prioritize what your mind and body need ✨

God dammit. I hate that this looks so good and I feel brave enough to try it even though I know I'm too scared to play a FIRST PERSON SILENT HILL GAME but I'm almost definitely still going to buy it and scream and cry and still try to beat it even as it scares the everliving hell out of me...🫠

I've made a million drafts of this because anxiety is a bitch. But. I've been struggling with killing a specific horde in Days Gone and decided... WE'RE DOING IT LIVE! Tomorrow around 12 (or 1) pm EST I will make an attempt to go live to watch me finally end them 💀🔥 Stay tuned for deets.

Tag yourself Hello, it is me, the Smart/Ditz. I am an incredibly intelligent human who is simultaneously air-headed 🫠

New episode alert! The fog is getting thicker and we've arrived at one of the scarier parts of the game (for me). Join me as I become increasingly more uncomfortable and get ambushed by scarecrow mannequins ✨

POC’s desperate proximity to Whiteness will forever be dangerous.

Ohhh, okay. This is why I don't have clients on my schedule today. This makes sense.

Good morning, folks! Nothing on my work schedule today, so I'm not sure whether I'll veg or be productive 🫠 Looking forward to State of Play news later! I have no expectations to avoid disappointment 😅 Hope everyone has a great day! Be kind to yourself and others 💜

Good morning you wonderful lot and happy Thursday 🖤✨ Some words of affirmation to start your morning: Have the day you deserve! Much love 🖤

The villagers when they finally get tired of my shit in Untitled Goose Game.

My new attitude

So sad to hear about James Van Der Beek's passing. He was such a fun actor to watch on screen. Not the best quality, but I wanted to share one of my favorite moments of him from his guest role on How I Met Your Mother.

Another incredible article by the lovely @hananomaude.bsky.social. Stealing a phrase, I'm someone who "lives life on hard mode" and needs these conversations to be had. "Easy mode" isn't enough for accessibility but I will argue that it is necessary. Needs are different and games are for joy ✨

Good morning, folks! Have another work meeting and some mental health outreach today. More downtime for projects and some chores in between. Hope everyone has a great day! Try and find 3 things you've been grateful for so far this week. I know I'm grateful for you lovely humans ✨

Andrés is an absolute dear and a delight, and a solid indie journalist to boot. When he's live, it's a cozy time where you can yap about all the obscur (!!) little titles no one's heard of. He's been having a rough go lately; feel free to pop by and give him some love. He's got plenty to share. 💖

PLEASE go watch this! Super fascinating and incredibly important history.

Wrote and am mailing a letter to my governor today to address his comments that downgrade government overreach. I plan on sending him a weekly letter to address the way he's failed my state because I'm sick of it. You don't want to hear me "whine", Mike? Too bad that's your job. (end rant)

Mario Kart 64 was released in North America 29 years ago today! It's one of my favs in the whole series and I'll never forget playing it with one of my neighborhood friends. It has the first apperance of the Spiny Shell AND my personal favorite Battle Mode! Are you a fan of Mario Kart 64?

What is your favorite Disney movie? My favorite as a kid and now a favorite of my kids'. It makes me feel so seen 🪷

Good morning, folks! I have a work meeting and a training I'm excited about with some downtime in between. Might sneak in some video editing to make sure I stay ahead of things. Hope everyone has a great day! If possible, take time for some quiet moments. Our brains need a break too ✨

Remember, kids, smoking kills.

As we like to say in the biz: boundaries are important. Be SELFISH. Take care of YOU.

5 yo: "Mom, isn't it crazy that we live on planet Earth?" This actually led to a really fun discussion about space, but I let out the most existential sigh when she said it 😅

The Monday brain continues! I forgot a new episode of Silent Hill f is out! Things are getting creepier and creepier! But at least my secret weapon will make it more manageable.

Left the house to pick up a prescription and a couple of miscellaneous items. Left the store with the miscellaneous items and forgot my prescription in the cart. Now I have to leave the house again to pick up my prescription 🫠 Thank you to the random person who returned it to the pharmacy 😭

My favorite part of traveling is embracing and experiencing other cultures: their food, dances, lifestyle. Imagine being so insulated and small-minded that you can't appreciate music in another language, or universal gestures because you're too sheltered and afraid. SEE YOURSELF IN OTHERS! 🇵🇷

Didn't get to watch it live so I watched this morning. Not exaggerating, I bawled my eyes out afterward. I've been so heartbroken over the senseless hate especially toward our Hispanic neighbors. You don't need to speak Spanish to feel the pure, love, joy, pride, beauty of this show. Please watch 💜

Good morning, folks! Nothing on the agenda today, so the world is my oyster. Might take advantage of the gaming time while I have it. I've recorded enough episodes for YT so I think I'm good there 😅 Hope everyone has a great day! Challenge yourself to say hello to at least 3 people today!

Just got reminded of "that one character" in Days Gone. This is gonna be me the rest of the playthrough.

Happy Superb Owl night to all who celebrate. Enjoy watching Bad Bunny and infuriating MAGA.

Seeing Markiplier's face everywhere for Iron Lung (really freaking cool that he had that opportunity) has had one of my favorite Markiplier moments stuck in my head. Couldn't clip it, so it's from 19:00 to 22:08 😅 The fact that he actually rage quit and redid the entire game was incredible 😂

You're an island kid whose sister gets kidnapped by a big bird, you join pirates to rescue her, fail, get rescued by a talking boat, spend hours and hours sailing and exploring different islands, and must acquire an ancient power to defeat the BBG.

As a gay kid, I developed a sense of humor to survive the inadequacies of growing up in a world that wasn't necessarily fit for my needs. A place where I didn't feel seen nor heard. I forged my own path forward; no one was going to forge it for me. I did without, I did in spite. #UrNotAloneInThis

Just like with astrological signs, my personality doesn't match what my birthdate is assigned to 😅 I am absolutely a cleric and not a fighter ✨

Yo, @cynetrunner.bsky.social, I would be honored to be a bird.

Poor guy's just tuckered out.

POV : you are 9 years old, and it's sunday morning in 2004.

There are a lot of evil, crappy things happening in the U.S. currently but one good thing happened this week. Congress approved $15 million for an MS research program that was almost no more. For now, there's still hope for me to see a cure in my lifetime 🧡

Not a huge difference, but I did want to share how my audio has changed from my old set up to my new set up. I noticed the difference while editing and it sounds so much better to me.

Good morning, folks! Have a routine eye exam and need to get groceries today. Otherwise, I'm free to do as I please. Might go between doing a puzzle and playing Days Gone 💀 Hope everyone has a great day! Make some time for calm, quiet moments this weekend 💜

I’ll also add that you can take a break from socials and don’t need to apologize for needing to step away for a few days (often see ppl saying sorry for stepping away for a bit) These apps should add to your day by helping you engage w things & ppl you want to. When that balance is off, step back 🙏

Just a gentle reminder in these times.

I know a lot of people have feelings about this game but I adore every facet of it. For me, this game feels like the perfect encapsulation of grief, loss, love, forgiveness, and why revenge will take more from you than it will give.
