This year can just stop now. Sorry y’all I may be absent for a bit.

My dad was rushed to the hospital this morning with a heart attack and struggled to breathe with liquid in his lungs. He’s stable, awake and even joking now but he has to stay for a few days

Thoughts and prayers are welcome. ❤️

I think it's happened, I can't remember the last game I played that I legit had fun with. Most of the games I played this year felt like work. Even GOTY contenders I've struggled to enjoy. 50% due to lack of accessibility, 50% just not vibing.

Are there games you can recommend that I could try?

Over the next few days I'll be posting clips of my main video doing a breakdown of #TheGameAwards Accessibility category to help explain why each game was nominated.

First up today is #Atomfall

I've been so close to pulling the trigger on a 3D printer for a long while now, and I just had a realization.

If I decide to print my own dice and sell them, I could put them in a Blind box and then hopefully see people film them unboxing the dice to see what they'd get lol.

Just had a fun realization: three of the five nominees for Innovation in Accessibility are from Canadian studios!

Assassin’s Creed - Ubisoft Quebec

South Of Midnight - Compulsion Games (Montreal)

EA FC 26 - EA Vancouver

This feels right lol
