I think I need to pause working on speedrunning PBs and instead work on IRL running PBs.

Gaming is life still tho.

so uh

my birthday is on Saturday

and I have been furloughed for an indefinite amount of time and will be Super Fucked™️ if it lasts long enough for me to miss a paycheck

so if you are in a position to help, financially, that'd be swell.

We’re nearing /40%/ raised for the new PC build! Incredible support — I sincerely appreciate everyone’s efforts in making the campaign a success!

Please spread the word if you already haven’t 💜 Laptop streams should be continuing tonight as well, can’t wait to start working through FF13-2!

bobby @bobbeigh.is.tall.fyi · 21d

I appreciate the encouragement from people on this-

So I'm opening a Ko-fi Fundraising Compaign on my page here: ko-fi.com/bobbeigh

Anything is appreciated towards building a new PC machine; or immediately procuring one outright if goal is met!

Even spreading the word would mean the world to me.
