I mostly use this platform to let folks know when I'm streaming, but I also post to my discord and have a (fairly accurate) schedule on twitch.

So, question for everyone following me on here: is this where you go to see when I'm going to stream? Should I keep posting here? Just wondering.

I'm going to have to pause my normal stream schedule for a while. I'll stream if I have time, but I'm not comfortable committing to anything for sure at the moment.

Hopefully it'll only be a week or two. I may change my stream times to earlier in the day when I come back.

Thanks for understanding!

I've had a rough few days (to put it lightly) but I am going to stream tonight. Going to be a late start and a shorter stream.

I'm getting back to the old PZ file! B42.12 came out, so WE CAN MAKE THE BUTCHER HOOK. Many cows will die tonight.

Come hang out at twitch.tv/marxochist around 10 pm ET

It's the last day of sub% sprinter runs and I'd like to thank everyone who subbed and gifted subs last month. I think I've been jump scared more times this month than in the 11 years I've been streaming.

Probably a good time to try out the guns?

After 2 deaths last night, we might have an ok run started this time (11th time's the charm).

I've been streaming past my scheduled time a lot this month, but I'm going to reign that in for these last few sprinter streams, ending at 12 am ET.

Reminder that I am streaming tonight! I usually don't stream on Mondays!

We managed to get the technical difficulties from last night under control (OBS broke my captions, weird capture issues, lag, etc.), but we still lost a survivor.

To make up for the missed stream, I'm going to be continuing the sub% sprinter runs every night (starting at 9 pm ET, maybe earlier) through October 1st.

Build 42.12 came out, so I guess we get to see if my save files corrupted or not.

LGTBQ+ youth disproportionately experience homelessness compared to their straight and cis peers. In the US, up to 40% of unhoused youth identify as LGBTQ+.

That’s why this series was created - to provide support, essential tips, and resources to youth who are so often overlooked by the system.

20 years ago, normal people avoided technology and techies would jump on the newest gadgets as soon as they could

now, normal people buy smart toasters & coffee mugs while every techie I know is on the verge of retreating to the forest

Some transgender people see only darkness in front and behind them.

The current climate is especially accelerating this.

Transgender people just want to love the people they love and live their lives as themselves.

Absolutely devastated by this news. SpaceDrake was no doubt a huge influence in drumming up interest for Japanese indie games localized into English and pushing for them on digital distribution storefronts like steam. Huge loss. Might be time for another playthrough of Recettear in his honour.

A tweet from Robin Light-Williams (@BlondRobin) stating the following: Hello to anyone reading this. I am Robin Light-Williams, formerly lead translator for Carpe Fulgur. I am very sorry to announce that my friend and business partner Andrew Dice, @SpaceDrakeCF, has passed away. Pursuant to that, Carpe Fulgur will be ceasing operations.

No stream tonight, having internet problems and I doubt I'll get them resolved in a reasonable amount of time.

Somehow still on survivor 8, despite a series of close calls last stream. We've survived the helicopter but still need a generator manual and access to the gas station.

I'm super tired today, which may finally be what kills Froth Piss.

Sinclair astroturfs small markets to present their national-level political interests as YOUR local, home-spun news.
I've been waiting YEARS for them to get their comeuppance for spitting in the face of media integrity.
Know their influence in your area, and avoid them and their sponsors!

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly.

Once again, Froth Piss has survived the sprinters and we'll be continuing on with her.

I did make the unfortunately realization last stream that the only gas station in town is on the polar opposite end, which is about to be an issue. Ope.

actions that will contribute more to pushing against bluesky's censorship than a blackout:

-submitting a feedback request
-@ing moderation about it
-commenting on mods posts about it
-making and sharing memes (ex: "i consent!" sticker)
-leaving an app store review
-just generally posting about it
