Because I received some criticism for mumbling in my YouTube videos I started doing tongue twisters before I record. Today I came up with one to honor my cat Minerva who is usually sitting next to me while I record. #cattax included!

No problem! Happy hunting...er... fishing! 🦑🎣

Jack Deshler @jackdeshler.bsky.social · May 27

Also, Squid are tricky because they are only a night time fish. You can either make or buy food to help with ur raise your fishing level too. Honestly, just make sure to hit up the Squid Fest on the 12th and 13th of winter as the Squid are available all day and you get some pretty great prizes.

Jack Deshler @jackdeshler.bsky.social · May 27

Having an iridium rod that lets you put bait and, in my case, the trap bobber on it REALLY helps. Other than that, if you don't have "Squid bait" handy using Deluxe bait not only increases fish bite frequency but makes ur fishing bar bigger.

So, I was going through some old emails, I had over 12000 in my inbox. Anyway, some of the oldest ones I had were about Google+! Does anyone remember Google+?! My God, I had completely forgotten it existed. I have a better memory of Myspace than I do of using G+! #googleplus #myspace #losttotime

RIP to my sweet orange tree. You grew so well, and I repaid you with one misclick and a sharp axe. My Stardew Valley short captures the moment everything went wrong.
