The 12th annual international Gender Census 2025 is now open until at least 30th August 2025! survey.gendercensus.com It's for anyone whose gender (or lack thereof) isn't described by the M/F binary. It's short and easy, and results are useful in academia, business and self-advocacy.

This Friday and Saturday at 8 pm EST, we will be racing All Bosses Glitchless and Chaos randomizer, respectively! In addition, if any of you have prior restream experience and would like to get restreamed or commentate for these races, let @mayberryzoom.bsky.social know to help get you set up!

We got two more weekly races this weekend! 8 pm EST tomorrow, we will be doing a randomizer race, this time using the Random Start format. And on Sunday at 3 pm EST, we will be racing Any% NMG. Join or spectate if you can!

Look you just have to make the cool weird shit that excites you. You must. In this world besieged by bland, scrubbed boring, computer slop, you must. Make the thing you’re embarrassed to make, the thing that feels “too much” because otherwise we get drowned in a sea of cowardly work made by a button

As we're bringing back community weekly races, we'd like to get some input on availability and interest! We have a Google Forms survey you can fill out until the end of August 6, so be sure to submit before then! docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

We're bringing back weekly races in the Dread community server! The first race will start today at 2:30 pm EST (less than an hour from now) and will be on All Bosses No Major Glitches (ABNMG), so feel free to join! No skill level is required, we're just racing for the fun of it.

This, from Lee, is one of the best pieces of advice I have ever gotten; and it applies across creative work, not just to writing.

Great take from @tietuesday.bsky.social about AI being used for "Placeholder art" in video games.

@hobbit1697.bsky.social's All Bosses Unrestricted run will start in about half an hour at 7 pm EST! Tune in if you can, and there will be a watch party one of the Metroid Dread server's voice channels! www.twitch.tv/gamesdonequick

Oh grow up. There’s more to politics than your survival. For instance, my comfort

in case people need reminding, platforming a bigot means you're as good as one. so don't do that. especially if you have >100k followers.

Metroid Dread is once again featured on a GDQ hotfix! Watch Hobbit run All Bosses Unrestricted (ABUR) this Friday at 6 pm EST on GDQ's Twitch, and support him and his commentators!

if you see this guy in your community, ban him immediately He got banned from several Metroid randomizer and speedrun communities for his openly homophobic and transphobic views several months back, but this is just straight up nazi shit😬😬😬

Deltarune............................................................ tomorrow!

happy deltarune tomorrow to all those who celebrate

Tunic has a really good randomizer. Highly recommend, but play the game first :3

please stop using the word "glitch" in category names. thank you have a nice day

frostytools uses generative AI and LLM to do the needful don't use it don't do their lil stream card thing

Just finished Spirit Tracks, and my takeaway is this: I understand some of the criticisms I've heard about the game's quirks and problems, but also... this game rips? Are you kidding? Shut up. Have you heard this soundtrack? And basically every boss fight kicks ass? Get real!

we'd also like to link up with other people doing this work, please send a message to @sr-accessibility.bsky.social if you have any leads.

Hi Bluesky! We are the Speedrun Accessibility Association, a group dedicated to spreading accessibility within the speedrunning community at large. Our goal is to assist in educating people in how accessibility in speedruns can benefit EVERYONE and lead to a healthier, happier space for all!

Please, if you love anything about this life, stop using ChatGPT and other GenAI. Just stop. Don't use it to dunk on it, don't use it for a laugh, just stop and let that shit wither.

Now that I've stepped down as Dread speedrunning mod, I feel comfortable saying this: Fuck Bdog, DelusionalPrince, Satorha, lolFortify, Metatron7, CScottyW, and all the people who thought it was okay to support them.

This is Thancred,

Using AI for any reason, even and especially "fun", means you're stepping on the backs of unpaid artists and writers. I can't respect that, ever.

Got picked to run All Bosses UR on the Perilous Paths GDQ Hotfix on the 17th, my run should start right around 8:30 pm EST after the Fusion run!! Will be joined by @labmemb3r.bsky.social on comms!! Come check it out!!

woah

Every time I see one of those "repost if LGBTQ are safe with you" images, they NEVER have alt text. What this tells me is that while LGBTQ people are welcome, disabled people are not. Not a good look.

New tools are live to help manage Twitch Runs at Risk on SRC! Twitch’s 100-hour Highlight limit threatens thousands of runs. Now, runners & moderators can track and manage at-risk runs directly on SRC. Learn more about the new tools & back up your runs: www.speedrun.com/news/o2vko35...

I imagined how goofy the shoulders would end up looking, giggled, then immediately drew it because I needed to see it made real

By now you've probably already seen this, but it's important enough to keep sharing: Back up your Twitch Highlights to a hard drive or to Youtube ASAP! If you know any runs from others that need to be archived, please do so. The library will burn, let's take out the books first!

Calling this statement concerning would be a massive understatement. This is clear reactionary rhetoric. Yikes

go back up all your vods, download your favorite WRs, do everything you can to preserve speedrun history. there are so many vods that are going to be lost from this, between runners who no longer use the internet to those who have passed away. unbelievable change

fuck bdog and fuck the people keeping him relevant

Seriously disappointed in all the people who think it's okay to support bigots if they're good at the video game or they agree with their opinions on leaderboard rules.
