I bought this TV in 2025 and it still works today

true

Surprise! I've been working on organizing this and submissions are now OPEN! HI IF YOU'RE AAPI PLEASE SEND ME YOUR COOLEST SPEEDRUNS AND SHOWCASES!

man fuck this challenge www.twitch.tv/karlgerm/cli...

the Trump admin is seeking Gamers who still use slurs on Xbox Live to join the famously super chill on mental health profession of Air Traffic Control.

getting rid of my Shure SM7B and Cloudlifter to go with a real setup

great news! turns out my tooth didn’t actually fall out and that it was just an extremely vivid stress dream. this is how I win, baby!!!

I cannot believe this run is still alive lmfao

more slop twitch.tv/karlgerm

Recent fun work!!! I am so grateful everyday for all the fun this career is for me🩷 📍Bittersweet Tattoo Co, Bristol PA

I’ll repost this with the Dark Souls tech he’s talking about if I can figure out how to do it. it is extremely on brand for some bullshit that I am likely to be the only person who cares about lol

Fish has been sleeping in my lap and I just noticed he’s in the shape of a heart. it’s been two weeks since his surgery. he’s doing great! he’s back to being himself and he’s being spoiled rotten, his appetite is the same as it ever was and I think he’s putting on weight. he feels a lot more solid

Our entire government is so embarrassing. We live in a loser country

if any of my posts suck and don’t get any likes it’s because BlueSky was down when I posted them

I wish on you all ten times what you wish on the people of Iran

Trump is just constantly fucking with the Lament Configuration and when the Cenobites show up, he somehow deflects them onto every other person on the planet and it’s getting so fucking old man

Let me say this plainly: Iranian children have as much of a right to live and thrive as American children. Their babies MUST be as precious to me as my 6 niblings and my baby grandnib are IF I want them to have a future. If I want a future for my kin AND humanity, I MUST act like it. So must you.

absolutely crazy that posting a threat that’s even 1/10000th the scale of the one that was posted today would be enough for someone to like…lose their job at Subway and probably be arrested

Try as I might nothing I can think to post really rises to the occasion

Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

HECK YEAH! Submissions for Juneteenth 2026 are open today through April 21st!!!! In order to submit a run, you must be a member of Black in a Flash!, head over to gdq.gg/baf to apply! Submit a run: https://submissions.gamesdonequick.com/ #blackspeedrunning #speedrunning

lol the NASA stream on Twitch has the DropsEnabled tag

my toxic trait is that when thinking of Layne Staley (which is often) my brain wants me to say Lance Daily. like some kind of Rooster Dragoon’s practice regiment. chat I’ve lost the plot of this post and would like to bail out now.

“I pay more for gas, groceries and healthcare and kids are contracting diseases we wiped out decades ago and my likelihood of being collateral damage on U.S. soil increases exponentially every day but at least I don’t have to see trans people saying ‘hey we exist and would like to keep doing that.’”

starting my morning opening up LinkedIn so i can let the shareholders know i survived the night and can still generate value. i slept 5 hours so i made sure to tag 12 people in my post to share what i learned about unconventional markets (the world of dreams). i change my job title to PR laureate

Fish has been acting like a kitten today. I am so glad this little man is feeling better

at the Germ Family Easter Brunch, we were all so preoccupied with bringing Prosecco for Mimosas that there are three bottles. just asked my brother where the Orange Juice is and there is none. so we’re all having what I’m calling Chad Mimosas (opposite of Virgin Mimosas)

can’t wait for kids to discover all of the quality Star Fox games Nintendo has published in the last 28 years

Microthon marches on!! Another 6 of the shortest speedruns are coming in the next hour! Join the stream here! twitch.tv/ladyarcaders 👾

the suffering continues. more Permadeath Rando Slop happening RIGHT NOW. twitch.tv/karlgerm

In Pokopia I used to get annoyed at a Pokemon running over to me and wanting to talk only to give me like…a stick. but then I realized it’s like a cat bringing you a little toy and now I love it

My pharmacist looking at my animal crossing @theyetee.com shirt: “Nice. GameCube design. Back when the villagers had personalities.” Oh this guy knows BALL????

updated my pinned post since I got some new followers here. I have a laundry list of weird shit I’ve done over the years but these are some of the highlights.

I’m karl! twitch streamer, Dark Souls speedrunner, did some GDQ runs… I talk about Final Fantasy on Every F’n FF. I did the worm in an Andrew WK music video and was on an episode of Orange Is The New Black (because I thought it’d be funny to get to say that.) I’m gonna get back into making music 🔜.

on Instagram @erikgerm.bsky.social posted a video and he has a copy of Dark Souls: Remastered for Switch in view. I forgot just how evangelical I am about this game. I bought it for him the way I’ve bought copies for lots of people. “Hey…no pressure to play it…but if you ever want to…”

had about 8 runs and so far this was my PB. going to continue Rando Slop Permadeath attempts sometime tomorrow morning. I have to use whatever I pick up, I can’t unequip things and if I die I have to start over and reroll everything. do attend. twitch.tv/karlgerm

the post PAX exhaustion has hit hard this week

its so good. the only correct way to play dark souls

one minor detail I forgot to mention during my Dark Souls run at PAX is that you can set blood to “Mild” and it turns all the blood green lol. makes the Hellkite Drake tail cut look like you got slimed on Nickelodeon. @bbmercy.swordofmoonlight.com showed me this years ago and I never looked back

guess who’s back to begging for food?

I might regret starting rando slop tonight

Set up my stream downstairs (it probably won’t catch on fire. it’s definitely very organized…) so I can hang out with Fish while he recovers from surgery. come say hey! [Dark Souls Item/Enemy Rando USE WHAT YOU GET Permadeath] twitch.tv/karlgerm

Happy April Fools to all who observe

HOLY CRAP, IT'S THE BIGGEST GAMING NEWS OF THE YEAR!!! 😱

i think if you took internet access away from people who enjoy april fool's as a concept every april 1st the world would be a better place

….I might start Rando Slop tonight. if I can get that running I’ll give it a whirl and I’m sure I’ll be very relaxed about it. Dark Souls Enemy + Item Randomizer • Use What You Get • All Bosses Permadeath (Glitchless)

lmao watching @tolkoto.com quickly fact check. thanks so much for the kind words @danryckert.com and @grubb.wtf! hoping we can talk Kaizo in a bar again soon. youtube.com/clip/UgkxKaW...
