So excited to be presenting with my awesome panel on video game (music) professional and fan-made collections in July at the Strong Museum! I have always wanted to visit this amazing place! 😊

Someone mentioned that I was the “loud pizzicato guy,” and you know what, I’ll take it!

But what if I don't wanna >:[ #comic #cats

Tune in tomorrow 03/20/26 to the GameRT YT or Twitch channels to catch our wonderful line of of lightning talks all about gaming and libraries. Full program descriptions are on the GameRT website (link in bio.)

Finally see a light at the end of the tunnel for my UC flare up…it’s been about two months. 😞

Come hear my quartet next month at VGM CON! We’ll have some crafty music for you! 🧶🎮🎶

We are in the final days of the Save the Games submission period! www.museumofplay.org/save-the-gam...

Swear to god, ICE could just announce they're leaving a city but not leave and the media will just stop covering that city completely even though ICE never left. It's what ICE and the media did with LA and they're doing it with Minneapolis too

The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

The launch of the University Minnesota’s Video Game Collection is today! Over one year of planning and consulting resulted in this launch. Thankful to everyone who has given advice on starting this, and hopeful it gets past pilot for it to remain permanent! 🎮

Another day, another time worrying about getting abducted by ICE. Yay…🙃

Passport will be on me at all times from here on out because that is what the U.S. is right now.

Maybe reclaiming my Korean citizenship isn’t a bad idea right now.

Merry Christmas everyone! I'm very excited to announce a new FULLY IN-PERSON recorded cover - The Frostlands from Octopath Traveler featuring The Bards Quartet! originally composed by Yasunori Nishiki. Full video on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqpe... Collaborators and information below!

Traveled back in time. Back from the most memorable trip to Japan. Can’t wait to go back.

I thought that talking again wouldn’t make a difference, and lo and behold, I was right. 😞 #vagueposting

“No place like home” took over “For good” as my favorite song in Wicked: For good!

Your last saved meme is your moral philosophy

Guess it’s time for me to open up Animal Crossing: New Horizons again in preparation for January!

A moment of silence for my coffee maker of 7 years that has broken down.

Why is Mega Starmie a physical attacker?! 😭

Suggestions for VGM wedding prelude music. Bonus points if it’s on VG Lead Sheets!

Running a gaming event for students this afternoon and advertising our future video game collection. So excited! 🎮

Of course having a philosophical debate with myself about arrangement vs. adaptation had to happen on a Friday afternoon.

Never thought I would ever be asked to peer review an article. My persistence in my research is paying off!

Video games have landed at the back end of the UMN Libraries! Thanks so much to Grace for the photo. 🎮

Looking forward to a better month tomorrow. July has been challenging in so many ways.

Just sent off the FIRST list of video games made by our selection group for UMN Libraries to order for the collection! Getting there!

Warms my heart to see students playing Mario Party Superstars in a classroom on campus. ❤️

Libraries collect some cool, nerdy things too! This is a map of Castlevania (the video game) by Bill Mudron my coworker cataloged today for the map collections!

What a sad weekend for MN…accompanied by reported gunshots a block near my home today. Life can stop being eventful now.

Sending support from afar for the protests as I have to work all day. I’ll be trying to find a bail fund to donate to in the meantime. Resist!

Manifesting completely black controllers for the Switch 2. That’ll make me definitely want to buy it!

Trump fired the Librarian of Congress without cause! Send an email to your representative to stop Trump's attack on the Library of Congress. action.everylibrary.org/emailhayden via @everylibrary.bsky.social

A concussion and allergies at the same time. 😭

My VGM orchestra website is now updated with new locations of orchestras that play video game music! Find an orchestra to join near you! #vgm #orchestra www.gsodreams.com/join-an-orch...

In the past few months, I have had my first sprain, fainting, concussion, and really bad food poisoning. Life can stop pouring stuff on me now.

Thank you to the two kind people who looked after me after I fainted. I hope this reaches you; I owe you a lot.

Hoping everyone at FSU is safe. Thinking of you all.

I solo improv’d on a song for the first time yesterday and didn’t completely make a fool of myself. 😆

today is National Library Workers Day, and i am asking you to support library workers by -using your library (it matters!); -defending library workers against the ongoing efforts to intimidate, silence, and criminalize them; -advocating for better pay for them. 📚

@ryfolk.bsky.social probably won’t post about this here, but in the midst of all the bad news lately, I am so excited to know and introduce Associate Professor Ryan! Congratulations; he has worked so hard for this!

Could you use help explaining the value of #cataloging & good metadata to your admin, coworkers, #MLIS students, etc.? Happy to share this set of resources put together by an ALA working group chaired by @magsjoy.bsky.social. All of these & more are available at hdl.handle.net/11213/22872. 📚

Switch 2 and its lineup is going to be phenomenal. Time to save up!

First the coffee. Then the bullshit.

I can’t wait to hear all the new silly songs people make in the new Tomodachi Life!

It’s been a while since I talked to a friend until 4 in the morning! ❤️

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Dad is moving closer to me! 🎉

LC changes this almost instantly and meanwhile, illegal aliens took YEARS to change…
