scoutsscoop.home.blog/2026/07/12/p... It took a few days, but I wanted to make sure I got this right. A cautionary tale for those who watched pinball on #SGDQ from the queer folks standing up for LGBTQIA advocacy and inclusion in the scene.

pinball. they're terrified of the community that's half trans women (us) but they love the isolated ones who will go along with anything

Imagine a NES Block! Or don’t, because it’s gonna happen anyway! Wake up and tune in to @gamesdonequick.com

I'm so glad SGDQ viewers are gonna get to hear the soundtrack for Total Nuclear Annihilation pinball. It is, arguably, the greatest set of bangers on any pinball table.

OH MY GOD ARBOK IS COBRA BACKWARDS WITH A K I never realized this, I don't play Pokemon

Archipelagos are going to get me to re-experience or finally beat games I haven't touched in ages. Finally beat Link's Awakening legitimately (i.e., without a Game Genie, I sucked as a gamer kid) for the first time. Just gotta learn a few extra tricks and it'll be alongside Doom in my repertoire.

Statement from VGHF director Frank Cifaldi on the discontinuation of physical PlayStation media, and the closure of the PS3 and PSP digital storefronts.

I'm so tired of people asking me to be angry over video game stuff I'm used to or I've seen coming for years. Is the expectation that I devote untold hours to becoming some sort of video game newsbreaker to my friends or creating the next big viral meme? I just don't care. Fuck 'em.

A game I backed on Kickstarter over 11 years ago at an atrocious amount is coming back from the dead, and it's really weird to see. I didn't stream back then, I barely had a personality, and there's these awkward remnants of my pre-streaming goober self bolted into what should've been a cool game.

This is one of the best movies ever made and I do not trust your taste if you dont agree.

You've gotta stop posting tweets from X the everything app. Who cares, man?

For those unaware of pinball, Jersey Jack is a MAGA company that ran a Make Pinball Great Again marketing campaign and also recently released the Harry Potter pinball machine If it were licensed by like, any other pinball company this would be exciting but like Fuck Jersey Jack

whenever anyone I know admits to using ChatGPT this appears above my head

I HEARD SPIDERMAN WAS THERE

It's amazing how much poor production quality is forgivable in endurance racing when ads aren't playing every 5-10 minutes like the US networks have done for the last several decades. Confusing leaderboards? Prattling, unfocused commentary? Just have 20-30 minutes of racing between ads and I'm fine.

oh hey Bluesky finally added a Group DM

When the edible hits

It's been six months since a trans woman was ejected from a bathroom at a pinball tournament. It's been six months of bullshit, inaction, and blaming trans people for the problems they suffer. I've written an updated post about it. posts.arborelia.net/six-months-a...

Kinda weird and disapointing that Nintendo goes "We don't make a sequel to F-Zero GX because we don't know how to evolve the franchise" and they remake Star Fox for the third time.

They're not out for everyone yet, but Phasmophobia's new models are already a tremendous experience (featuring sailorsugarplum watching @jojosaysbreee.bsky.social get down and die).

To be clear about this, anything over about +6s at this Grand Prix requires getting special permission from F1 stewards to compete in the race, because it's uncompetitive and dangerously slow. Aston Martin is twice that gap, over $400M later. Hilarious.

Fuck. I mean obviously I don't care for Apple, but the throwback Apple design on Porsche's Laguna Seca livery goes so hard.

Me: I should be careful about saying too much unhinged shit online, it's beginning to get out of hand Also me:

Shifting my focus to horror communities around streaming spaces has been a breath of fresh air by comparison. I feel so much more welcome in them now that I'm active, to the point it's almost embarrassing to think there was a time where I felt like I wasn't worthy enough to do anything but lurk.

I have so much vitriol I want to spew over the IFPA's BS and the apathy in pinball, but rather than burn bridges no one uses, I'll just say this: 1) Life's too short to waste on communities that don't want you around. 2) If you can't affect change, sometimes leaving is the only ethical choice.

I've now heard the view from the broader pinball world that "some trans women went bonkers and started harassing the IFPA for no reason" I guess it's time to repost this posts.arborelia.net/trans-exclus...

The bluesky address is @attie.ai and it really needs to be in the top five accounts blocked on this platform. This is honestly some of the most tonedeaf shit I’ve seen from BS and thats saying something

They forgot to include it but right at the bottom also the last requirement is you have to be okay with genocide.

Insta-blocking anyone who speaks positively about this show. Rowling is a bigot who is actively campaigning to make trans lives worse so if you watch this show I will assume you are a transphobe, end of.

deleting and reposting seperately with proper alt text (bc i didn't mean to quote dunk someone with under 200 followers, oops)

The David's Diver Devs have replied to my Steam review. I think if you can explain away your use of generative AI to be this minimal, then go the extra 0.1% and just stop using it. Using it for one tiny thing in one part of the game is not worth having to have an AI disclaimer. Just don't.

Surprise! It's an early Phasmo stream! I'm playing with a few of my ghost hunting friends this afternoon because drops are active for everyone! EVERYYYYOOOONNNNE www.twitch.tv/waromelette

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

MAKE AN EMERGENCY DONATION to Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate there and they are overwhelmed with requests. CO borders KS, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out. GO DONATE. tcpipeline.org

I kept thinking I was hearing Goofy's voice in Date-san while watching the Yakuza 3 remake, only to find out the VA is Bill Farmer, the voice of Goofy himself. Now you, too, are cursed with knowing the voice of Goofy is helping Kiryu process The Plot

It's a shame but Xbox is officially 100% dead. One great console out of four. So many great games over the (not recent) years. A few top franchises like Ha-(pushes Erica out of the way) Forza Motorsport.

Very good advice for when you really wanna do a thing, but are afraid. <3

The 2002 Rollerball remake. For like 10-15 years afterwards, I would declare that I'd stopped believing in movies because of Rollerball, and I still think that was a justified and somewhat muted reaction.

A question that comes up in the pinball world: why are we still protesting what happened at OBX? When tournament staff removes a trans woman from the bathroom and threatens to call the cops, and the cis players play on, that's not a first warning something has gone wrong. It's a last warning.

Sometimes I think being prestige XX in Phasmophobia gives me some sort of enhanced escape abilities against hunting ghosts. There is no way I should have survived here, and YET.

I am unreasonably excited for another debut tonight. Both my PNGtuber and Vtuber model are just wonderful, and I'm excited to start using them on a regular basis.

Once again, it turns out “fully autonomous” means “a guy in the Philippines.”

JUSTIFIED “FUCK ICE” CHANTS #AEWDynamite

I'm finally about to make my return to streaming, but this time I'm starting fresh as a PNGtuber (and, in time, Vtuber)! The content will mostly be the same, but I'm hoping to be a little sassier instead of 99% chill and downtempo. In essence, this is the version of me I see in the mirror.
