Tonight on Retro Lunacy 2019:
An interview with @zachhighwind.bsky.social !
Then I continue to make fun of fascists and capitalists, get chided by my own Game Gear, then race to the defense of the good timeline's Earth by playing Space Invaders on SEGA Saturn.
Be there!
At 9pm EST.

Since American Thanksgiving no longer means anything to me (I doubt I'll see any of my family), and because I want to rebel against the fat white ass of Santa and the consumer culture frenzy in his wake, I'm doing Second Halloween. Who's with me?

An alternative thumbnail that almost got used for the Castle of Illusion video. It was fun to be a witch for a night ;)

I can't remember who made the joke about trans folk taking over Pennsylvania, and naturally then renaming it Transylvania (it is funny). I was thinking about that today and how much easier it would make it to find a date; cis folk have just been a big ol' disappointment in that area this year.

My next SEGA Genesis conquest for the channel will be Ecco the Dolphin. I hope to join Ed Annunziata's list of peeps who have completed it the old school way.

The latest Xbox Game Pass commercial is a hilariously inept attempt to cast shade on retro gaming:
1. Cartridges have lasted longer and are more reliable than most Xbox hardware
2. Blowing on carts is not how you fix them (don't do it)
3. Playing on a PC in the kitchen? I guess if you hate yourself

Tonight on Retro Lunacy 2019:
I play Harvey Birdman: Attorney at Law on Nintendo Wii, make fun of Limited Run and Ebay, and continue the explorative time capsule of classic media. Be amazed at the show, where the jokes are old, and so am I!

This is like the OutRun 2019 episode I did last year, but on hard mode and with a better angle of my cleavage. Yeah, you're welcome.

I did take a few photos before filming my Star Trek episode. I will do more in this costume again. Not quite visible in this picture but I did have Trill spots and no they did not stop on my face. ;) I'll try to remember to share others like this, but more will go up on Patreon.

*I'm not going to,* however, it is exceedingly difficult to not give up altogether on sharing my creative work and attempting to build a niche audience. Capitalist upbringing tells me that every project I've ever done has failed, and it's hard to deprogram from that way of thinking.

Be prepared for some serious Blast Processing, as this weekend on my channel I'm featuring VectorMan 2 in full 16-bit disco glory. :) Goes live at 9pm EST on SEGA Saturday.

As one of my fellow creators on Youtube once said, "don't tell people you're quitting." As in, no need for drama, if you're leaving a place, just leave. Well, that's I guess the story for me and Twitch. I'm finally disconnecting my home from the internet tomorrow, so that is the end of live streams.

While there's still time, I think it would behoove us to create as many archives/libraries, et cetera as possible that are not connected to the internet and have not been touched by generative AI. *I would like to be wrong,* but I suspect if things continue as they are we will need those libraries.

I'm quite certain I've been algorithmically blacklisted on places like Youtube because of my anti-fascist, capitalist-questioning opinions, and also for being LGBT. I also refuse to be perpetually online. So the viewership and support I do get is appreciated. Keep circulating the tapes.
