Derby, I'm right there with you as well. It's hard to work on self confidence, and really all we can ask for is to try.

Imagine. So pretty!

It's a lovely morning in the discord, and Chyron is a horrible goose.

I shared this JUST as a Microsoft AI ad showed up on the TV, goddamn it

as a kid I was like I DONT CARE ABOUT SPORTS LET ME WATCH THE FUNNY COMMERCIALS YAAAY

now as an adult I'm like, please bring the game back if I watch another ai commercial I'm gonna fucking shoot my tv

Anything is drawing if you're brave enough 😤

Amazing shirt! We are the Union is cool as hell

Yeah. I also wish that the folks that have been coming out and telling off Aaron would do *anything* about the current IFPA situation. Those are the people that the IFPA bends their ear to, and their silence is allowing for the IFPA's behavior to continue.

Yeah, I have been trying hard to avoid *any* pinball social media. Scrubbed Facebook, removed myself from any pinball centric Discords, so on and so forth.

And yet, bootleg Nick Adams got through lol

Fun fact: Compile, the developers of the Crush series, were the folks who originated the Mado Monogatari series of RPGs and their spin-off series from that RPG, Puyo Puyo.

The Crush series whips (Alien, Devil, and Jaki) and I recommend playing the other ones!

I wish there were alternatives to the IFPA currently, or that there was any way for me to continue to represent in good conscience. To me it's either give Josh money and endorse his behavior, or remove myself wholesale.

It also means I don't have to mentally deal with pinball, which is huge.

I never thought of it as a need, but I definitely think it could fix a ton of problems 💚

The only way to stop a bad umpire with a gun is a good team manager with a gun

It has become my most common refrain at this point, but only because it's true. Increasingly so with each passing day.

Everything is on fire. The world has completely lost its mind. Videogames are the best they've ever been.

I can't fathom everything that big sis is going through but you're the bestest little sis around and that's a fact!

I am a looker, you're right there 😤

I'm so glad I got to meet you in person during GDQ! 💚
