One week until #SCSTekko26! ⌛ SCS is pleased to be partnering with Assemble for this event. Their mission is to build confidence through making - offering everything from after-school programs and camps to workshops and adult craft nights. Find out more: assemblepgh.org

On my YouTube channel, I posted my reaction/breakdown of my SGDQ 2026 race with Dereklander where we did an epic Spyro 3 - 100 Egg race! Follow up post has the actual race also on my channel! www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7kk...

Air Quality is horrible in Cleveland, Ohio. If you are unable to find safety within your home, I’m dropping a list of Recreation Centers (with clean air+AC) that have extended hours today and tomorrow. As a person with asthma, I’m urging folks with respiratory issues to stay inside and stay cool.

Dinner tonight • Chicken Fried Rice • Orange Chicken • Tostones (Puerto Rican styled fried plantains)

Update: it’s gotten so bad, downtown Cleveland looks like the skyline in Spider-Man PS1

Please stay safe Northeast Ohioans with this terrible air quality today. It looks gnarly out there today, the even sun is covered in smog!

Lost 44 at Blowhard, 17 at Cove, 14 at Lofty, HOW DID THIS PB?!?! But hey, it's the first Vortex PB since January! And we take those!

Is it smart to do PB attempts of SRT 3 while watching the England vs. Argentina match? No, but we're doing it anyway! www.twitch.tv/toronite

First time actually doing a decent amount of Spyro 1 Vortex and was on a potential pacer until Lofty messed up the whole thing! But with FDS on my PlayStation 2 and visualizing all the time save I have in this run, a 25, even a 24:XX is pretty doable for me with just a little bit of grinding!

Hey sorry to ask but I got kicked off my financial support and I have to jump through a million hoops to get it back, in the meantime I set up a Kofi if you wish to help me with my daily expenses. I'm also lowkey on the job hunt again so maybe I delete this soon ko-fi.com/brookelonely

2026 really has been a banner year for me and I’m only 7 months into the year and I’m not stopping! • AGDQ 2026 - Mario 64 Relay • ICEBreaker - 2 runs • SCS Highway to Help - Finale • PAT7 - 1st Host Staff with them • GDQ Hotfix twice • RPG Limit Break debut • SGDQ 2026 - GDQ Main Stage Debut

Rewatching my SGDQ run, sharing stories and maybe some actual runs too! www.twitch.tv/toronite

Thank you for everything. Dream was achieved and now the future is wide open. Text version: pastebin.com/GNWLQLgG

In a couple of hours, I’m watching back my GDQ run, dissecting and looking for things I missed because I was locked in and sharing stories from GDQ + doing some speedruns, I reckon! www.twitch.tv/toronite

Super excited to be back with another Prevent-A-Thon event! The big events are fun but the online community is truly where relationships are built and folks gain new skills. More details coming soon! I hope you'll come join us!

..............WHAT DO I EVEN SUBMIT THIS TIME?!?! I've already done Pokemon ORAS, PTCG, Spyro 3 (OG and Reignited), Ghostland Yard, and did 2 Mystery Races...... ......can I interest anybody in Mario Golf for the Game Boy Color? Regardless, y'all should submit and support Prevent-A-Thon 8!!

Feeling the GDBlues? Well, this piece of news should light you right back up! #SGDQ2026 might be over, but #PAT8 will take place November 5th-8th, 2026! Mark your calendars!! Submissions will open in a few weeks!

Thank you for addressing this and canceling this. I don't know who made the decision to do this and I'm not going to pretend I know anything about the talks between both sides (didn't even know this event was a thing until like 30 minutes ago). But I really hope the powers that be learn from this.

Do I have any Rhythm Gamers out here? I've snagged a rhythm game showcase for 7/31, but it's currently not yet long enough for a full episode! I do also have some submissions to reach out to for my August 14th episode, so seriously, thank you for continuing to submit to Passion Project!

Did you all like that Spyro Reignited 3 Any% run from SGDQ 2026? You’re in luck because I’m running it back at Tekko 2026 for SCS on Saturday, July 25 at 10 AM ET as the Day 2 opener! Also, I’m running Pokemon Omega Ruby Any% on July 24 at Tekko at 1:15 PM! Come say hi if you’re in Pittsburgh!

Working for multiple organizations has been incredibly enriching and they are just as much the lifeblood of this hobby as GDQ, so please, keep supporting speedrunning at the grassroots level! Also, yes support Hotfix! It’s lovely! (Time to see if it’s time for me to submit more games for it lol)

I will save the sappy writing for when I come back to Ohio in a few hours and surely an emotional first stream back on Monday. But I want to say this week was unforgettable. Making my debut as a runner and getting to be a part of something memorable will stay with me for the rest of my life… (1/3)

To those on here looking for more speedrunning content after the end of #SGDQ2026, I've created a Starter Pack of different speedrunning marathons/events that you can check out. This list is always being updated, so let me know if there's an event I need to add! go.bsky.app/JJaRpbd

omg I’m in the SGDQ finale video with Derek, this is so wholeso— I GOT MIKE WAZOWSKI’D IN MY OWN RACE THAT I WON! But seriously, what a week and to be a part of all this is unforgettable! Thank you so much GDQ and to the entire crew for making this race a reality! You are all amazing!

Can’t believe I’m doing this, but I got an AMA on Reddit about my run if anyone wanted to ask me anything about it or give any feedback on the Spyro 3 race this past Sunday at SGDQ! www.reddit.com/r/speedrun/s...

So I went for a 5th plate, after all…

I am a sucker for trends

That moment when you hit the biggest Rocket Storage in Spyro Reignited 3 history, on the biggest stage of them all at SGDQ 2026! Full explanation of RS, plus execution of the trick.

I’ve gotten so many signatures but I am down for some more! So if you want to sign, say hi, take a picture, anything, feel free to let me know, either here or anywhere you find me throughout today! What a week this has been!

This is what happens when you have 4 PlayStation runners in the SGDQ practice room at 2 AM. Crash Bash but no one touches their controller. • @kongman21.bsky.social - Koala Kong • @dereklander.bsky.social - Tiny Tiger • @kyliekyubi.bsky.social - Coco • Me - N. Brio

It has been a long journey through therapy, inspiration, and personal growth to get to the point where I would host for a big event such as GDQ again. I'm going to give my shift literally everything I have and leave nothing on the table. gdq.gg/donate - MSF needs us. Let's do it, gamers.

Wrestling’s REALLY cool! That is all!

Wrestling’s cool! That is all!

Twins lose 4-3 to the Angels in a thriller… BUT NOW THE RASSLIN’ IS NEXT!!

Thank you Amber, well said! No matter how bleak the world may seem sometimes, there is always a way to contribute and add a little bit of light to the world, even if it means making life just a little brighter to someone or to yourself, if you are able to!

Shout outs to GDQ photographer Wes “Fish” Chan for taking the GREATEST picture anyone has ever taken of me in my life!

TRANS RATS

Potentially thinking of going go the Twins game on Friday (assuming I’m able to and schedule allows me) to also attend the AEW show immediately afterwards if anyone is open to that idea

I think I’ve probably done close to 10 (if not already 10) runs with 4 different games and every single time out has been phenomenal! I love being on the show and the showrunners and whole Hotfix crew are so wonderful to work with! Highly encourage you all to watch it!

Super tired but we roll, PlayStation shirt (shocker that a PlayStation runner would wear such a thing)for today #SGDQ2026
