FINAL TOURTIÈRE RESULTS: Baked nicely! Rested for 10 minutes! Cut cleanly!

This year for Christmas I am making Tourtière en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourti%...

Merry Crapsmas it’s a new Christshot. Or… the other way. Enjoy! youtu.be/r9_hlOc0A7E

In spite of everything, we persist, so let’s celebrate by listening to music as a team! (This is my weekly music stream! You do not have to listen, but you should!) Twitch.tv/bravenewfaves

If I wanted to look at pages of redacted notes from people who think black bars are going to make up for their own shortcomings, I’d read the SCP wiki.

People are this mad about it because that was a blow to a sensitive wound we’re all feeling - where the art we’re seeing can’t be trusted, where the voices we hear might not be human, where the stories we experience might come from somewhere entirely hollow. It was a tipping point for a lot of us.

I don’t think Larian understood that when they casually talk about their use of genAI it wasn’t spoken into a board room or a zoom call full of people thinking about numbers, it was to a host of fans who looked to them as an example of humanity and art persisting in spite of things like that.

I honestly don’t know if this is 1:1 applicable, but I think it’s relevant that the Luddites didn’t “smash the machines” because they were being replaced, or they feared the machines. They did it because the machines let the companies make WAY more money, yet the Luddites’ wages weren’t increasing.

Today on everyone’s favourite LoadingReadyRun hosted morning show (there are dozens, but everyone but this one is secret, shhhhhhhh) James welcomes Graham to the GMM hot seat! Cereal, EOY Stats, and so much more! twitch.tv/loadingready...

Reading the Rob Reiner news *while* watching John Cena’s retirement match was not an ideal mixture for a healthy emotional evening. (before you ask: the match was fine, I liked the ending; I’m crushed by Reiner’s death)

Time for Chillpoint! Hang out with Beej, Heather and Paul and chat about the week's gaming news. twitch.tv/loadingready...

Our Game Awards co-stream video has been copyright claimed by seven different entities who are all sharing the ad revenue, between them. Have fun with your pennies, I guess.

I was actually enjoying when they brought all the Street Fighter folks out on stage, plus the banter was going well and felt natural… up until Andrew Schultz brought the energy to a jarring halt with his ill-conceived and badly-delivered Mortal Kombat goof. Hey, outsider take, this guy might suck.

Join Graham, Heather and Paul as we hang out and watch The Game Awards. twtich.tv/loadingready...

GRD Break training arc day 9 Coach Tama should be around with help, vod review of a set he played as my character probably? This entire event has been the most incredible, heartwarming experience I think I've ever had. Will try to squeeze in some Rivals of Aether 2. twitch.tv/seabats

Had a reassuring chat with some other parents at Penelope’s school. Turns out even normal people who aren’t Very Online ALSO think AI is stupid and scary.

If you have not listened to the soundtrack to You're a Good Sport Charlie Brown, these are the soothing retro squonks you need in your life. music.apple.com/ca/album/you...

Are you drinking enough Glurp? Probably not! Join us on Crossing the streams to fix that! twitch.tv/loadingready...

CheckPoint is back! We’ve got Subnautica, Nvidia, Roblox, Hitman, and Thomas the Tank Engine. Breaking news: CEO aren’t people. youtu.be/c850tHizlnc

I have been announced to Team Tama for the GRD Break team tournament. Excited to really start working with my coach and telling my teammates how sick they are (the kick flip kind)

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

HEY CANADA. MP Elizabeth May is sponsoring a petition to get Electoral Reform back in front of Parliament. Could all of us who were utterly betrayed in 2016 when JT reneged on this please go put our electrons onto this one? yes, yes, the petitions don't mean a thing WILL happen, but there was […]

This morning on Good Morning Moonbase, Special Guest Host Graham is joined by Special Guest Guest Alex! twitch.tv/loadingready...

Tonight on the Friday Night Paper Fight join these 3 Waterbenders, 2 Earthbenders, 2 Firebenders, and the lone Airbender (You figure out who is who, I haven't seen the show) for a 8 player Avatar: The Last Airbender draft with a Collector Booster each for added spice! www.twitch.tv/loadingready...

Does anybody know if those emails with your Arena stats take into account ONLY that format? Or any events DURING that format? Because I don’t think I did as many games of Omenpaths as this suggests…

Join the LRR Crew as they assemble dice to accomplish feat of heroism in DICE FORGE! twitch.tv/loadingready...

I assure you that for absolutely zero reasons to do with child wizards, I was curious to try this Spinnaker’s limited seasonal soda flavour. Would not recommend! It smells a bit like butter, but it tastes like an even split of CREAM SODA and MICROWAVE POPCORN, then the flavour thankfully vanishes.

Don’t tell anyone I’m streaming Twitch.tv/bravenewfaves

I’ve now completed my traditional post-DB stumble through downtown Victoria, which is fully decorated for Christmas. Every year I am utterly disorientated by what time of year it suddenly is.

Not too shabby y’all. Not. Too. Shabby.

In order: Lorwyn Strixhaven Star Trek (for personal reasons and because we don’t know much about Reality Fracture yet) Reality Fracture The Hobbit

$22,790.10 that is the total amount we were blown away to learn our prize lots helped raise for this year's @desertbus.org ! Thank you to everyone who donated towards this wonderful cause. As of this post they have 18hrs of bussing to go. Please keep showing them love and support! Thank you!

@andrewcownden.bsky.social we unlocked your message!! It was so great to see you!

the most scathing book review i’ve ever seen. absolute brutality

In case you missed it! New Movies with Mikey!

Please enjoy our own take on Guy Mont Spelling Bee, I think it turned out very well.

A repost for the Saturday crowd. Here is some Commander gameplay with some pretty high quality production values and some sweet decks. I even played Monowhite, featuring a load of cards Content Creators tell you aren't good anymore!

Y’all have got to stop trying to teach people magic with edh

Can’t believe it’s Desert Bus time again. Hey, come and hang out while we raise money for children in hospitals. Going live in ~20 minutes, and then staying live for like a week. DesertBus.org

It a real shame there's no Commander decks to go along with Avatar, but luckily @pleasantkenobi.bsky.social sat down to play with @sharpeattack.bsky.social, @miabyte.bsky.social and @fellbrink.bsky.social for an awesome game using the new cards! Check it out here: youtu.be/bj4BvMPxwns?...

1H20M UNTIL @desertbus.org! We've had a BUNCH of $5 donations before we started, let's see how many more we can get! Head over to desertbus.org and throw $5 in the pot if you can :D

I can’t decide if the AI-generated part is worse, or if the user-generated part is worse. You expect people to pay for this??

It's that time of year! The @desertbus.org charity event starts this Friday and once again I'll be making the poster for it! Every year I watch the entire week long event and add their antics to the poster over time, which you can buy! Find out more info about the event at desertbus.org #DB2025

Expanding on this, and addressing the most common reply: The fan theory “James Bond is just a title” is ALSO continuity and ALSO unnecessary. Batman (1966), The Dark Knight (2008), and The Batman (2022) are all JUST BATMAN, and that’s FINE. You can just have the character exist in different eras.

Time for a taste of Early Access Avatar, it's the streamer event and Graham & Kathleen are here for it. twitch.tv/loadingready...
