Since my Discord clearly hates me, I guess we're playing Mega Man 1 tonight. You would think by now I'd've learned to avoid putting joke options in polls, but alas. Earlier start because I have to wake up in the morning. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 8 pm ET

I hope they aired this Japanese TV commercial for Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner on Sega Saturn at night, because they took it a little too literally That would've made me piss my pants as a kid. Releasing the game on Christmas does not bode well for that thought #gaming #retro #Sega 🎮

I have time to stream tonight, so we're going to see how far I can get in Donkey Kong in a sitting. Last time I streamed it going for all collectables it took around 4-5 hours? Hopefully this time it'll be faster. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist after 9 pm ET, whenever I finish eating lol

And because I've seen the comparison: This is not an H.P. Lovecraft situation of "separate the art from the artist." Lovecraft is a century dead. He's not alive right now, trying to suppress records of his yacht visiting Epstein Island and swearing to make the lives of millions of ppl unlivable.

With the HP trailer dropping tomorrow, here's the whole deal: If you watch the show, hell even just the trailer, I will think less of you. I will dislike you. I will think you don't care about trans people. That's it. It's been years. There's no wiggle room. No qualifiers. You care or you don't.

No stream tonight and a temporary hiatus in general. Doing some IRL things and I'm not sure when I'm going to have free time for a little while. Will update the stream schedule when I can.

Meanwhile bike fuel prices have not changed at Costco.

Happy thirtieth birthday, Bio Hazard, aka Resident Evil. Unleashed from a Capcom laboratory on 1996/3/22! Thirty years of Raccoon City, Forest Zones, Jill Sandwiches, and creepy-ass mansions. And interesting might-have-beens with the first Bio Hazard/Resident Evil game. 🧵 of info tidbits

Right before we finished Mario 64, Mega Man 7 got added to the shuffler so now we have to finish that. Any more games are just getting added to the next set. Not sure what we'll play after MM7, but I do have more games to learn. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 9:15 pm ET

It is time to talk about a real problem within trans journalism. Breathless, fearmongering posts that wildly exaggerate a danger — or make one up entirely — while being incredibly vague about actual threats and ways to resist. As TNN's @davidforbes.bsky.social termed it: panicslop. So, a 🧵

shoutout to @amazingthew.bsky.social for the actual answer to discord adult verification

Feeling okay today, so we're just going to finish up Mario 64 tonight. I am still planning on starting a little later than usual and it will be a pretty short stream since there isn't much left. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 10 pm ET

Perfect

💯💯💯 Stardew Valley over here clocking 50 million sales with SNES-tier graphics and these people are STILL trying to sell me visible pores and individual eyelashes like I ever asked for any of that.

I was planning on having a short stream to finish up Mario 64, but my headache isn't letting up. No stream tonight, we'll finish up another day.

A @steampowered.com feature I’d love: Add a search filter to include/exclude games created with AI

I think our internet is more stable today, so more shuffler. I just need to wake up a little more. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 9:15 pm ET

Getting a late start but I'm still going to stream for a bit. Last stream 2 more games got added to the shuffler, so there are currently 6 going. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 10:15 pm ET

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out: www.404media.co/ai-is-africa...

Sonic Advance has advanced to the "never again" bin, 4 games remain in the shuffler. I foresee a lot of Mario 64, which is accidentally relevant today. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 9 pm ET

No stream tonight, too sleepy. Also: my stream schedule is going to be changing soon, but I don't know how it'll shake out just yet. I'll update when I know more.

Republicans are using kids as a smokescreen for what Big Tech lobbyists want: a national surveillance program to harvest our data with zero protections for people and their privacy. We must fight this dangerous expansion of surveillance technology.

everyone clocks me as a former line cook because i'm so vocally safety-conscious when handling knives. always saying "knife behind" in the kitchen at home, alleyways, bus stops, etc

Happy Bandcamp Friday, to all who celebrate bikinikill.bandcamp.com/merch/limite...

Still shuffling. Done with Metal Slug X, almost done with WarioWare even though I decided to try to beat the Thrilling games in addition to the main game. The other games all still have a fair bit to go. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 9:15 pm ET

We thank @aoc.bsky.social for speaking the truth about age verification in the House E&C hearing today! As she stated plainly, and we agree, age verification is a smoke-screen for censorship. It is NOT about kids safety!

SCOOP: Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.

I am opening up commissions for the sake of fundraising for The Trans Continental Pipeline (tcpipeline.org) and/or Kansas' ACLU (action.aclu.org/give/support...). Below are examples of my work, general prices, and all you have to do is email me [email protected] donation receipt!

Jesse Singal: “I don’t understand why all these experts with degrees keep disagreeing with me. So demoralizing. What could the explanation be??”

We stopped early on Saturday because I had a pretty bad headache that wasn't getting better, but I'm feeling okay for now. Going to try to make some headway in the shuffler tonight. I *really* need to practice a few of these more. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 9:15 pm ET

Time for another shuffler, starting with 7 games: - Donkey Kong Country - Kirby Super Star - Metal Slug X - Sonic Advance - WarioWare + 2 wheel spins I haven't practiced Sonic or Metal Slug, what could possibly go wrong? Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 6 pm ET

H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban all my books, & any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps & say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

I've been having a rough financial spot recently, and anything is really really appreciated! 🙏💜 ko-fi.com/silholdan/go...

THIS IS WHAT SAM ALTMAN WANTS TO TAKE FROM YOU

Bipartisan Ohio hate-crimes bill excludes transgender people from protections. Sexual orientation is also not mentioned anywhere in the bill. thebuckeyeflame.com/2026/02/27/o...

I’m transgender, I live in Kansas, if you want to help rn donate to either the ACLU of Kansas or the ACE foundation in Wichita - the ACE foundation especially is the organization that will help people with money for groceries, rent, etc. More orgs also included in attached img acefoundationict.org

No stream tonight, I do not have the energy for it. I'll try to stream some tomorrow since my Discord voted on a couple games I haven't practiced and I should probably do that ahead of the shuffler on Saturday.

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

i know the situation in kansas right now is dangerous and terrifying. that said, i'm hoping to speak to someone who's had their license invalidated. i will do absolutely everything to protect your anonymity and maintain your safety. i can be reached securely via signal at marisakabas.04

Here is a direct donation link. Please use it. I just did. www.zeffy.com/en-US/donati...

Because of the National driver register, since their licenses are suspended, trans folks cannot move to another state and get a new license until they remove the suspension on their existing Kansas license. They can't even escape this by moving to another state.

[Your 23yo mutual]: I stayed up till 5am, I've had 3 energy drinks today, I've ran 5 miles, I am unkillable [Your 36yo mutual]: You know what. Heating pads are really nice, even when your body isn't in agony. It's just a very comforting feeling as you sit there doing your tasks.

Not feeling amazing, but I am going to try to wrap up Silent Hill tonight. We just have to get through Nowhere and kill a god, ez pz. Getting lost is honestly going to be the biggest issue for me. Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist a little after 9 pm ET
