If any of you in my private Discord wanna see some old family photos and old photos of me, I’ll be live there in about 30 minutes or so~ Just something fun and casual to wrap up the evening. ❤️

Surprise stream - let’s finish off DK tonight~ Live now! twitch.tv/therealgayme...

We had lots of fun with the Stardew Valley board game tonight! We came SO close to winning (literally just ONE action away from finishing the museum at the end), but it was still a very fun time. Took a little longer than expected (almost four hours with four of us). It went by in a flash, though.

Y’all I found some photos from my Problematic Twink™️ era (circa 2011-2012) and I cannot believe I used to look like this 🤣

I just realized I haven’t consumed any food or drink all day today, oops. 🤦‍♂️

I’m feeling some of the big sads tonight, but I still wanna hang out tonight to close out Observation Duty 8, going live now~ twitch.tv/therealgayme...

Pivoting games tonight with the new game from Chilla’s Art that JUST released - Umigari. Live now!

Y’all I found some pictures of me from 2013-2015 that I forgot existed, I look like such a baby in these!

Late posting of my stream schedule for the week! Continuing games from last week, but on different days and times. I hope to see you all online~ twitch.tv/therealgayme...

I picked up my mom’s ashes today. It’s both comforting and painful to bring her home.

After 100+ hours (‼️) I rolled credits on Octopath Traveler 0. It was an enjoyable game overall, with villains and storylines clearly drawing inspiration from Final Fantasy. Some parts dragged on a little too long, and I almost threw up my hands at the final battles again. I did beat it, though!

Going live now with Nancy Drew~ twitch.tv/therealgayme...

Also, this is a good video to point out: that constant din in the background with the low rumbling is something I can hear in my condo all day, from maybe 4am to 2am. It’s from the nearby freeway. This is why I’m constantly worried about my stream audio when I’m live.

My dog reacting to a YouTube thumbnail lol

Going live now with more Observation Duty 8~ ✌️

After my very uncomfortable tooth extraction last week, I did some retail therapy and got my items today - the Stardew Valley board game (which I’ve been eying for quite some time), and Volumes II and III of Encyclopedia Eorzea, to add to Volume I that I already have.

Stream schedule for the week! Continuing the existing games but also featuring a couple of new (to the stream) ones. I hope to see you around~

Going live now with Fields of Mistria~

It will be a month already tomorrow since my mom passed. I still miss her every day but the memories hurt a little less. I got some flowers today for her.

Live now with Observation Duty 8~

Very late stream schedule for the week! I want to get back into it, y'all~ Using a new schedule template I whipped up, too.

Some of the people that post in gaming-related subreddits are the most pretentious, obnoxious, and rude people. For the most part the discussions are fun and informative, but then someone like I described shows up and makes the most unnecessary, mean spirited comments. 🙄

There was more pain involved in my tooth extraction today than I would have liked, so I’m feeling exhausted and slightly traumatized. Time to relax a bit.

Felt normal enough for a selfie today (a shirtless one, even)

Live now for soup for Soulframe Friday with @rasgueado.curvedspace.media and @gigamorow.bsky.social ! Twitch.tv/sumoomoo

My friend finished making the commemorative ornaments for my mom and they turned out so beautifully. I will be giving one to each of her brothers and sisters, and one to her spouse. I miss her so much.

This week has been full of challenges for me - I’ve got another tooth that needs to come out, my dog isn’t feeling well (tummy troubles), and I’m still struggling with grief. And of course, *gestures everywhere*. Tell me something good that you did, or received/bought, or ate this week. ❤️

✨New week, schedule, and format?!✨ Mon: Big Hops at 5pm PT Wed: Big Hops at 5pm PT Fri: Soulframe w/ Rasgueado & Gigamorow at 5pm PT Sun: Portal 2 w/ Exogenesis_ @ 5pm PT Twitch.tv/sumoomoo

I spent a few hours at my mom’s house today, looking for important documents and gathering some items she wanted to pass on to family. Funny that of all the things there, her reading glasses she always used to wear, sitting alone on her empty hospital bed, is what caused the tears to flow.

Today has been terrible already. Fun time.

I feel like looking for anomalies tonight, so I think I’ll finally jump into the new Observation Duty 8! Come by at 6pm Pacific if you wanna help me spot some differences~ Feel free to play along in chat but DO NOT SPOIL anomalies if you’ve already played k thx (can’t believe I have to say that)

Going back to work today after everything that’s happened is just… ugh. How am I supposed to get through an entire week? 😫

I got this as a gift from a friend from Japan - a noren-like cloth hanging of Bowser on a hanafuda card! I’m not sure how I’ll do it yet but I want to hang this behind me on stream. ☺️

Made my morning oatmeal with broth from our leftover ham soup. It’s SO tasty. Would recommend y’all try that with leftover soup broth, if you want a savory oatmeal, of course.

Happy New Year, everyone. 2025 was rough and it ended with an extremely painful loss for me. It was also a testament to how kind, strong, and wise I’ve become, and a reminder of how many lives I’ve positively touched (and have positively touched mine in return). Thank you, mom.

Time for Stranger Things 🍿

I saw a big bright beautiful rainbow on the drive home after my mom passed, so now whenever I see one I think of her. There was a brilliant one right in the view from my balcony this morning.

This stream ended up being one of my favorites I’ve ever done, and even though I cried a lot and parts of it were difficult to get through, I was able to celebrate my mom in ways I never could have without everyone who stopped by tonight. It filled my heart. ❤️

“Seated” for Wicked: For Good. 🍿

omg y’all, this Reddit post just unlocked a CRAZY memory for me. I played this game as a kid with my mom and we also could never figure it out!! Did anyone else play Star Voyager? It seems like a VERY obscure game, I had completely forgot it existed until now. Not even sure why we bought it 🤣

Took a randomly nice (shirtless) selfie the other day so I’ll post it. ☺️ My husband got us access to Wicked: For Good at home so that’ll be the plan with dinner tonight after my stream.

Someone sent me flowers for mom anonymously, which I appreciate, but I really wish I knew who to thank for them. 😭

Hey all, it’s been a really painful couple of days, but it feels light enough now for me to make this little post. I do still want to do a 2025 recap stream, but I just can’t do it now without talking about my mom - all the good memories and all of the recent painful ones, too.
