I am a small streamer who goes by Captain Waffles or Waffles for short.

I don't know what exactly I'll be posting but I do stream regularly and thought maybe hopping on the bandwagon here to promote myself might be a good idea

current weekly schedule looks like this 🧵

Happy Thirsty Thursday in the LoreKorner! Today we take a look at the man, the myth, the legend himself…
Danforth Whitcomb! Who did you think I was going to say?
As usual don’t forget to check out discord.gg/Wernissage for both more lore, and our currently ongoing community art contest!
Danforth Whitcomb. Born and raised on Earth, Danforth would claim to be descended from the Russian Cossacks despite his thick accent that suggested an origin somewhere around what used to be called Texas. His life during the Human-Covenant War was one full of impressive contributions and achievements, including the Siege of the Atlas Moons and the Battle of New Constantinople. His file was so well regarded by the UNSC Intelligence Community, that the Spartan-II’s frequently studied his service record, making special notes for his unorthodox tactics and strategies. Eventually, his insight would allow him to rise through the ranks to Vice Admiral, and the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations. His involvement was not limited to purely naval endeavors, as Danforth was also the lead for the YGGDRASIL program, and assisted with the research for the devastating and highly prototype NOVA bomb, which he hoped would help to level the playing field in space engagements. The Portal Complex under Menachite Mountain. In the summer of 2552, Danforth was stationed on Reach when it was invaded by the Covenant, and by August 3rd he was the highest ranking survivor of the UNSC Command Structure in the Reach Defense Coordination Zone. After requisitioning a group of Spartan-II’s to rescue him and his staff from the ruins of Reach High Command, and was able to make it to the location of the NOVA bombs, arming them with a 10 day timer on September 14. The following days were spent carrying out hit and run missions, and biding time until the timer ran out, hopefully destroying the planet and all Covenant forces nearby. On September 23 Whitcomb was rescued from Reach by John-117, and after retrieving Doctor Halsey and her escort from a section of Forerunner Ruins (image 2) the group returned to his captured DDS-class carrier, which had now docked with a crippled UNSC Frigate. The Eridanus Secundus rebel base. After an arduous battle left the already patchwork ships damaged and barely functioning, the group made contact with a rebel group (image 3), and convinced them to assist with repairs and rearmament in exchange for evacuation. Unfortunately, after it was revealed that a Covenant fleet was due to arrive imminently, Whitcomb made the difficult decision to leave the rebels to die, choosing the billions of people on Earth to the hundreds in the rebel base, despite his own feelings of honor compelling him to stay and die alongside them. The Unyielding Hierophant and it’s accompanying invasion fleet. Ultimately, Whitcomb would give his life to destroy a Covenant refueling and fleet mustering station, alongside its combined invasion fleet of over 500 vessels (image 4), all of which were mere days away from invading Earth. His sacrifice allowed John-117 and his team to return to Earth with important information, and perhaps more importantly, a glimmer of hope. In the end, Danforth was a hero who understood that the greater good had to come before his own feelings, and his involvements with non-naval projects would help save Humanity during the days immediately after the Great Schism, thanks to the detonation of a NOVA bomb at Joyous Exaltation, and the continued development with the HRUNTING/YGGDRASIL program.

🧵 went to HCS @halo.gg in #Seattle

This vacation/event is the first time I have ever seriously taken photographs with a #DSLR. I had fooled around here and there when I first got the camera but decided to order 2 used lenses just for this trip specifically. Here are some of my favorite photographs:

An abstract photograph of raindrops in the foreground on a window pane with city lights far in the background that have been blurred with a circular bokeh Pirate's Plunder of Seattle, Washington, USA facade at night, with full neon lighting.

Having an absolute blast with #EASkate #skate4

Don't let the haters deter you from trying it out, the game is free.
I've got almost 15 hours in Early Access since this latest build went live at the beginning of August and have not felt pressured to spend a single dime.

It's done!!

It took way longer than anticipated.

Had to learn how to edit in a new software. Then had to fight off creative blocks.

The video premieres in about 20 minutes, I'll be in chat waiting.

Come drop by to hear my thoughts on all the games in the thumbnail

Just started the Sekiro Resurrection mod today and boy, it feels like I'm playing for the first time again.

Some new attacks feel a bit quick at times but so did the base game.

Frustrating in just the right ways.

Shame my internet going out cut my stream short (I love Comcast/Xfinity!!!)

I NEVER take screenshots of Facebook Marketplace listings, but this one takes the cake, and I had to share it.

Do you guys think Fortnite for Xbox One is a good deal at $40?

When I was younger and couldn't buy my own video games, whenever my parents DID get me a new one, I used to pour over the game cover in the plastic on the way home.

Reading every single word, and paying attention to every single detail on the case.

Anyone else, or just me?

decided to get a custom handle for this app, already liking it infinitely more, and now I also own the domain

seems like a win/win, vs paying some billionaire $8/mo

same cost basis, domain was legitimately like $8.50, and a much better deal, one year vs one month

Oh yeah, I can post my video links here!

I played through The Simpsons Hit & Run a few months ago and had a video edited together of the full playthrough

Full runtime is 40 mins and 15 seconds, so set aside some time to watch, maybe get a snack

Over at the other place all I see is

"this game sucks"
"the industry is cooked"
"Woke! DEI!"
*complaints about game fidelity*

Here meanwhile:

"I love this game"
"Check out my gaming collection"
"Here's a list of games I love"
*Overwhelming positive discussion*

The contrast is staggering.
