@eurogamer.bsky.social dropping an obvious hit piece on ARC Raiders is kinda crazy. Of all the places I didn't expect it from them.

I went to a hospital an hour away at 2:15 for a 3:30 appointment and another one at 4:45. After waiting for hours, I finally met with a neurologist who really knew what he was talking about. He had all kinds of ideas for treatment, but tonight started with injecting steroids directly into my ear.

Can we please please PLEASE get rid of Chuck Schumer!?

Hey, why didn't anyone blow up Parliament on Wednesday? Are the British just lazy??

I take it back, the bears are alright

PC doesn't recognize my 3070 anymore. That's a good start to the week.

I thought we were supposed to feel rested after the fall time change

Alan Wake 2

When did PayPal start asking you to sign into your bank account, meaning enter your username and password, on their website? There's no way in hell I trust PayPal enough to do that.

It's genuinely depressing to see Misfits shirts for sale at Old Navy

On this day, history was made

Going deaf has really made me understand people who constantly call out ableism. I can't wait to get an implant or something so I can hear and be ableist again myself.

NGL. Just knowing MoistCr1tikal is in #Dispatch makes me not want to play the game.

Hearing seemed to be genuinely improving; more and more sounds were making their way in. Something happened yesterday, don't know what, and I'm back to square one. 🫠

My hearing is slowly starting to come back. Very slowly. That said, I need to keep reminding myself that it might not get much better than it is right now, and I still need to prep myself for a life without proper hearing.

The amount of people posting on Reddit right now that don't realize Reddit isn't working is astonishing. Just tons of posts with broken images asking questions that won't get answered.

Took apart my frankenstein PC and put it back together inside my old NZXT H1 case today. I had to take the case apart a bit to replace the stock AIO watercooling with a regular heatsink and fan. Running great now, at least until I finish my main PC build.

I got that duplicate Deathscythe Hell EW kit from work, and rather than let it go to waste, I'm thinking of making a recolor based on the regular EW Deathscythe.

I'll admit it; I'm enjoying the Pokemon game

I miss Twitch

I've been wondering what the future of games looks like. The console space kinda sucks ass right now, but the PC space isn't really looking any better, with the changes MS want to make to Windows. What's left? Begging for scraps on Linux and hoping a "Low settings" version of games come to Switch 2?

In what was genuinely a touching moment, with all I've been going through, my coworkers gifted me a gundam kit that I have already built and had on display in my zoom background for a year. 🥲

I was rewatching Mobile Suit Gundam Wing tonight and realized the text on screen when Heero was getting a medical scan are the English instructions for installing TWAIN in Adobe Photoshop.

Currently reading "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" and guys why is this book popular? #booksky

SCOOP: The Oldest House Converted Into Spirit Halloween After Trump Admin Defunds Bureau of Control, Objects of Power Transported to Mara Lago

Oh you know I'm ready for Thursday

First public interaction without hearing today. Went to the doctor, used live transcribe on my phone. It was weird but doable. Definitely not good in a crowd.

I woke up AS deaf today as I did yesterday, which is kind of calming. Like, I know it's because I can't really get any more deaf at this point, but still. At least it's the same as yesterday. I still set my sleep sounds before bed, on the off chance I'll hear it one morning when I wake up.

I can't get over how alone you feel in dead silence. Can't even put on the TV for background noise. I don't know how people do it

I can't believe it won't even be 7 pm by now when DST ends. I'm already ready for bed

The hardest part of the constant silence is the disconnect. It feels like the world has left me behind as soon as I turn around. Like being in the Langoliers or something, where life has already moved on and I'm still here, all alone.

Woke up unable to hear myself speak out loud anymore. I know they said the steroids would take time, but I feel like this is a step backward. I think I'm going to look up local ASL teachers today.

Baseball is fucking stupid anyway

With all due respect, fuck the Brewers #ChicagoCubs

So I'm someone that needs noise to fall asleep. Usually a YouTube video AND some kinda sleep sound, like a thunderstorm. Having nothing but the sound of my tinnitus is killing me. I've been laying here for an hour and a half thinking i would surely be able to sleep because i got no sleep LAST NIGHT!

Life without sound is painfully boring

Can barely even hear myself speak this morning. 95% of what I hear is tinnitus screaming in both ears. I start steroids today to treat it. Fingers crossed.

Last week I put my cat down. This week I'm suffering from intense vertigo and possibly going deaf. Next week? Who knows. I cannot catch a break.

BEST BIG CITY IN THE US 9 YEARS IN A ROW. While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth — this is the best big city in America.

I said goodbye to my best friend of 11 years this morning. It hurts so much.

You know, Taylor Swift seems like a psyop. Even back in the early 2010s, you couldn't avoid her when there was a new album. I remember ordering Papa Johns and being asked if I wanted a copy of her new CD with my pizza. This stuff is STILL happening with each new release too. Like what is happening?

Everyone SHUT THE FUCK UP Protomen dropped pre-orders for Act III theprotomen.bandcamp.com/album/act-ii...

Oh hell yeah, finally! #hellsparadise youtu.be/5QUyhQsXXtw?...

Microsoft are on one thinking it's cool to charge $30 for Game Pass Ultimate. How about you let me keep paying $20 and I dont get Fortnite Crew or Uplay+ or whatever because I don't want that shit?

President Trump wants to kill American citizens the right way. By Ezra Klein

Trump is declaring war on Americans. Cities like New York, Chicago, San Francisco and more. He even said they will be good training for foreign wars. This is authoritarianism, without a doubt.

People that associate nostalgia with fascism are stupid. You can miss elements of your past and not be fascist. It's incredibly easy actually.

Silent Hill f is a Dreamcast game made in 2025. No, I will not elaborate
