Crunch time is always a failure of management.

hi, im commentating some legend of kay to end the night. itll be fun! this game is weird!

Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms. 3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers. 4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against. It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power. Story to come.

been back for 3 days and already got a significant pb. less than a minute separates me and WR - just five seconds between me and top 3 :^) continuing angeline era for a bit to celebrate, come tap in www.twitch.tv/shovelclaws

In May, Twitch deleted 100K speedruns among millions of other videos. With the help of ArchiveTeam and @archive.org we saved these speedruns and 500K+ other popular Twitch videos. My search tool for viewing these archives is now live! archive.speedrun.club

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

the katamari banner is so SICK

it looks like Thursday's Mystery Game has been revealed! now i'll be hosting two HOURS of high-speed, demon slaying action - DOOM ETERNAL BABY WOOO

triple AAA gaming continually proves it is a joke. not a single thing tonight was actually exciting lmfao

Game Awards last year took place during a videogame strike against AI The strike wasn’t mentioned or acknowledged despite many VO performers working on the games that are heralded every year and even appearing on stage This year a game that features AI voiceover gets a podium to accept an award.

2025 not having The Big Catch is a shame. that said, future me will be so happy when i finally have my paws on this thing. the excitement simmers as usual. can't wait for it to boil over.

gz is my goat and i love and appreciate them so much! support their stream he's an absolutely life-changing person to me

when a queer creator, especially a furry creator, has a kink account or NSFW account separate from their main, it's your duty as a bystander to shut the fuck up and keep going instead of Moral panicking abt it and sexually harassing that person by "exposing" their fetishes and porn to random people

got 57 in sephonie! im so excited about how this run has progressed, every time i come back to it i find something new to shave a bunch of time off. this time i learned that you can actually do the links in any order using some Checkpoint + Save Data black magic (its pretty simple) which is SO fast

my friend drew me from life

I need to raise $700 for rent this month. And like soon. I hate to ask for money again but I’m in desperate need. 😢 Please help me if you can. ko-fi.com/bmo_raccoon

radical empathy for the world and its people isn't radical. the systems have developed a radical nihalism that locks us from compassion. be aggressively passionate, and you will find liberation.

tonight has been the most emotionally *fulfilling* and *taxing* night i've ever had and i would never trade that for the fucking world. i am so lucky.

transition goals

@jaxlersr.bsky.social is maybe the most inspiring speedrunner to ever do it. not only is he profoundly skilled, he works resolutely to highlight those who don't get the opportunity to otherwise. a true visionary and a guiding example of how to approach the hobby.

Howdy, pardners. Knuckles here. Sonic is nice and all but I'm honored ta be here helpin raise funds for trans rights. My game Knuckles 3 & Knuckles by speedsterbr18.bsky.social is up next! (Yes that's right, don't worry about it) www.twitch.tv/fastpacedeve...

I must confess, we've lost a sleigh and by the way, we're really gay

Its soon time to join @jaxlersr.bsky.social as he takes Raziel on a heartwarming family reunion in the land of Nosgoth. Join us for Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, All Bosses, over on the FPE twitch channel Say hi to Dumah, Melchiah, and the besties here: www.twitch.tv/fastpacedeve...

Speedrunning charity drive Games Done Quick is holding a Disability and Neurodivergence Special this weekend, and it's an important step for accessibility in gaming events. https://bit.ly/43QxPdO

Twitter had to turn off its location feature within hours because thousands of prominent and "verified" MAGA accounts turned out to be foreign and I think it's hilarious that Elon was the one who exposed them all
