I was at a friend's house and he introduced me to mIRC. There was the #panama and #strayaland channels where people would share reggae MP3s and talk shit. I was 15 and HOOKED.

Ended up going to the movies with a group of college students and even had an online girlfriend. Shit was lit.
Okay, let's get nostalgic

What was the VERY FIRST online platform that you became addicted to posting on?????

Primal's season 3 debut episode is peak Tartakovsky. Man, I missed this show.

Did some research to parse what Steam's best year in revenue to date means for most indies.

I wrote about the intersection between the thing I do for a living and the thing I do for leisure. The revelations therein kinda sucked.
Uno de esos artículos que me costó escribir porque se puso personal. Escribí sobre cómo Uncle Chop's Rocket Shop me hizo sentirme bien por ser un buen esclavo corporativo.

Starting the year with a classic in Astromono's monthly gaming club!
January 6, 2026 at 9:09 PM
Coming back from the holidays, my first post of the year is about how much I love @gamesdonequick.com and 5 of my favorite speedruns in the event's 16 year history.

January 3rd is the same day Manuel Noriega got deported to the US after the Panama invasion in 89. I was 5 and experienced first-hand how, when the US claims they're saving democracy in your country, all it means is they're trying to control something you own for their benefit.

On days like this, I wake up at 6:30 a.m. and feel grateful I got to taste whipped peanut butter in my lifetime.

It's 7:40 a.m. on January 1st and I'm setting up my laptop to work for Amazon. If there's one goal I have for 2026 is to get out of here.

Go follow @astromono.com and help me get closer to that reality this year 💪🏾

I wish you all a new year full of peace, love and a healthy dose of doing those small things that keep you going when it feels the world is no fun. You got this!

My piece about Vince Zampella's tragic news. I'll always remember the story of how he left Activision and kept on making hits as something inspiring and rarely seen in this industry. RIP.
El fin de semana pasado, el mundo perdió una de las voces más creativas y exitosas en los videojuegos. Que en paz descanse, Vince Zampella.

Had to write about OPM #34 and it's stark contrast to the awful anime situation we're going through.
El volumen #34 de One Punch Man enaltece las partes más buenas del manga a la vez que destaca por qué las temporadas recientes del anime son tan malas.

El libro se siente como leer una película e irónicamente es todo lo que su contraparte televisiva no es.

Kinda upset there's still not a Panamanian Overwatch hero. I've never played Overwatch, but still.

Hold on, so if your salary is 150K/46 weeks a year, you get that even if you worked 48 weeks a year due to crunch? That's... Draconic.
I've seen a little confusion online about this (I thought it was obvious), but in the U.S., salaried employees generally get paid the same amount no matter how many hours they work. Hourly employees (typically lower-level positions at game studios) get paid extra for overtime.

Wrote about why the categories at the Game Awards didn't do Clair Obscur any favors (other than the wins and a lot of haters).
Quizás hay algo de razón en por qué la gente le tira tan duro a Clair Obscur, pero la culpa la tienen las absurdas categorías de los Game Awards.

Today I'll find out if I get laid off at Amazon. It's been a tough hang for five years at that company, ngl. Part of me wishes I could get laid off so I can take the money and find a new job while doing Astromono. Sigh.

It's 5 a.m. and I'm playing Metroid Prime 4. Guys, @midimyers.com was right. Just drop the speech volume all the way down and play the thing with music/sfx only. I might just finish this game now.

Hands down one of the most intriguing games revealed during the Game Awards and one with a cool story behind the scenes at that.
Coven of the Chicken Foot fue uno de los juegos que más me encantó durante los Game Awards, pero la historia detrás de cómo surgió me gusta (e inspira) aún más.

MHA was one of three impressive pieces of media I digested this weekend. I just had to write about it and how it stuck the landing so beautifully.
December 15, 2025 at 12:24 AM
So I finally got PayPal subs going on Astromono.com and people can now gift subs to people they love.

It feels like it took forever to get it set up, but now I can focus on writing and marketing this website for real! 😤🥹💪🏾

Was playing Clair Obscur for the first time last night and beat a boss without taking any damage. I swear the scream/laugh that came out from me came from deep within my soul and I hadn't heard that something like it in 10 years.

Wrote a piece about the Game Awards and how its creator is the event's worst enemy.
Quiero pensar en un mundo mejor, porque lo que los Game Awards es hoy día no le sirve al medio de los videojuegos o sus creadores.

Binged watched MHA, I love three episodes of the kids just being kids and debriefing after the big bad is dead.
