If you're a challenge gamer, one who thrives on high difficulty, that's fine. That's who you are, that's what you like, do your thing.
If you're a different kind of gamer, that's equally valid. Play on normal, or on easy, or on story mode, or whatever you want. There's nothing wrong with that!

Last night Days Gone went really well, better than I expected. I've opened up a large new area of the map that, the first time I played, took MUCH longer to get to. I should catch up to roughly the same amount of progress I'd made on Playstation in no time! #gaming #daysgone

Days Gone tonight I think. It'll be a bit of a low-key chill stream, I'm not feeling 100%. #gaming #prethanksgiving

I'm starting to think that the people in power are so intent on demonizing autism at least in part because they recognize that many autistic individuals would be far more capable of running things sanely than they themselves are, and they can't let that idea catch on.

If I had any advice today, it would be: Don't let hypocrites tell you what to do.

Abiotic Factor and Shadows of Doubt were great, but the call of the open road is reaching me tonight. Let's catch up with Deacon St. John and see what's been happening during all of these Days Gone. #gaming #zoombies

Abiotic Factor tonight! I'm going to restart and take advantage of everything that I've learned so far, I think. #gaming #abioticfactor

Shadows of Doubt is a bit of a mindscrew of a game to play, but I LOVE it. I'm doing more of it again tonight! #gaming #mystery

Sending all the good thoughts, Bee.

Tonight feels like a good night for some gritty autumn noir detective vibes. So let's check out Shadows of Doubt! Will I solve the case? Somehow I doubt it. #gaming #mystery

Finally trying Abiotic Factor tonight! Half-Life has long been one of my favorite franchises, and this game is HEAVILY inspired by Half-Life 1. Can't wait to experience the sciency chaos! #gaming #abioticfactor

It's time for my yearly Days Gone play to begin again! But this time it really is beginning again. I'm retiring the PS4 playthrough and starting Days Gone Remastered on PC tonight! #gaming #daysgone

It's time once again for my long stream of the month! Starting now, going for at least 12 hours, and usually more. Today it's Baldur's Gate 3! #gaming #bg3

The No Man's Sky expedition is finished, and so it's time to return to Baldur's Gate 3! Which is also nearly finished. I won't finish tonight, but let's see if I can make some good progress getting there. #gaming #bg3

Any time! How are doing Bee? I hope all is well. Or you know, as well as can be, given the state of...everything.

I admit, I kind of ignored public libraries for ages because we live in the digital age. What a mistake. Libby alone is mind-blowing. Public libraries are amazing, and more people need to know that they're even BETTER than they always were.

It's good to see you back! You are still one of the brightest spots in this place.

No Man's Sky expedition continues today! I got myself set up yesterday with a frigate and a couple of exocraft which should make gathering corvette pieces really fast and easy. #gaming #nomanssky

No Man's Sky tonight! I've been doing some deep dives into how to better build the corvette of my dreams, so I might focus a bit more on ship improvement and customization tonight. #gaming #nomanssky

Why are there so many good books? How's a guy supposed to read all of them? Rude.

At long last, the No Man's Sky Voyagers expedition is working for me! So this time for real I'm actually starting it tonight. #gaming #nomanssky

In light of today's fresh horrors, I want to exclusively write works that will thoroughly piss off bigots and fascists.
