I almost bought ARC Raiders tonight, but after doing more research, I decided it ain’t for me. I ain’t really tryna drop $40 to have randoms rob me multiple times in-game. I’m cool on that. I’ll watch and cheer y’all on, though, I support y’all doing it lol

Yes, I believe in fighting the real fight. But yes, I also believe in finding ways to enjoy this life shit, because I’ll be damned if I’mma exist solely to struggle, fight, and die and that’s it. Nah, man.

I'm halfway to my partner watch hours on YouTube - screw it, let's keep the streams going over there then.

One of the homies was on his stream and went out of his way to say just how dope he thought my review of Dispatch was, and man...I needed to hear that. I felt like it got looked over after I posted it, but I really appreciated that.

Heard folks are breaking people's Meta glasses for filming them on the train or out in public against their will.

How To Make It In America is now on Netflix. Netflix also just bought Warner Bros. Netflix, revive How To Make It In America, Love Life, and Rap Shit, then do nothing else. Let everything else just thrive and succeed, man. And let movies keep coming out in movie theatres.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Having folks hit me up and say I'm in their top 4 or 5 on their YouTube and Twitch recaps has been cool. I often feel pretty insignificant as a creator because I stand off to the side on my own in this space (intentionally), but having folks just enjoy the content means a lot.

I actually got to sleep early last night and for the first time in forever, I'm not sleepy at noon. Dark magic, this is.

I said I wasn’t gonna neglect Twitch, but if that punk-ass platform keeps forcing my streams to be encoded at 720p max when I have more than enough GPU and internet for 1080p and even 1440p, I promise I’ll keep treating them like the missing daughter on “Family Matters”.

Haven't streamed all week because I've been unsuccessfully trying to get to sleep early every night. I ain't had the energy to go live. Tonight, I'm forcing it. 10 pm, I'm in bed.

NGLs, honestly boxes, and whatever the next iteration may be have never really been it for me. If you want to fuck or fight, you gonna have to say it to me like you grown.

Sometimes, you just want to play the intro of one of your favorite NES games and get 1500 gold as allowance from the king.
