These numbers have gotta be fake. I streamed that shit for 9 hours yesterday and I still have the whole last world left!? It's one of the most difficult games I've ever played? Maybe I just suck but if you can play Hotel Mario for the first time and beat it in two hours your brain should be studied
This image was taken by me of a real 480p CRT displaying an original copy of the game and, circled for your convenience, you can see Tetra's model is in fact hovering in midair. It's just the resolution is too low to really tell what you're seeing. 5/10
On Dolphin in 1080p you can clearly see Tetra's model eerily and inexplicably hovering in midair on the right side of the screen. This is so odd and so obvious that when I first noticed it I was sure it was a glitch introduced by emulation. But no! It turns out that was there the whole time. 4/10
Remember! In ~23 hours I'll be starting the Super Mariothon *Denouement* to raise money for Trans Lifeline (and fulfill my obligations from the streams I did over a year ago lol). Gonna start with a big 12-hour session of Galaxy 2 then do some shorter streams in the coming days. Should be fun :)
as of today, Loss is now old enough to vote. and that's actually true i'm not even fucking with you
🌠 New Video! 🌠 Join me for a very close reading of Cowboy Bebop's strange and evocative 6th episode. I delve into what the story believes about death and purpose, and arrive at some reflection on how it is that art and artists can become immortal. 3, 2, 1... youtu.be/4XR2f3odioY
been thinking about this comment all day. on my bad days it's so easy for me to convince myself that this whole youtube project is meaningless, so it sorta scrambles my brain to see clear evidence that it isn't. this stuff does matter in a real way. it both warms and frightens me.
And the winner is Tunic! A Reconstructed video thoroughly analyzing this game will release sometime in 2026. But more importantly, you all raised $2,530 for Immigrant Defenders Law Center! It's really incredible to see how much generosity people have in this difficult time. I think we'll make it 💙
Ok, took another shot at the Earthbound thumbnail, and this will probably be my last version for a while unless I'm struck with inspiration. Got a lot of good feedback on the one I tried last week. Thoughts on this one?
Video doing quite well despite the long break! Thank you to everyone whos watched so far, its been a lot of fun reading your thoughts
Oh my god, oh no...I thought I opted out of the extra midrolls but I guess I didnt and I never went in to check. I'm so sorry to anyone who watched my videos this way, that is a totally unacceptable experience. Changed them all back to manual midrolls, please tell me if you experience different.
Haha yeah, found it. Coined an essential phrase for 2010s nba-posting
Hi everybody! We've got another wonderfully fun fundraiser for Trans Lifeline going on :) I'll be participating in the "Mario 64 Multiplayer" block (about 30 minutes after posting this!), so tune in to watch and donate to a super important charity if you're able. See ya there 💙
Is this rug on the wall of a peruvian restaurant AI-generated or am i losing my mind?
Starting approximately right now, I'll be hanging out on @darkfry.bsky.social's charity stream for three hours to raise money for Trans Lifeline! This is a super-important cause and he is, in fact, trying to beat my time. Come hang out and donate if you can or just send good vibes if you can't :)
What a bizarre graph. It's been doing this for a week straight too. The other times my vids have gotten this many views this graph has been much smoother, less pronounced peaks and valleys. Sometimes the slowest hour will be only like 20% smaller than the fastest. Not this time!
There are more sinister applications of "ai" elsewhere but this one definitely pisses me off. My reply in the picture was one of the ai-suggested options. It's one thing to suggest "Thank you!" to a positive comment, but this is an elaborate sentence which *directly contradicts* my actual video...
Just googled geodude to make sure i was remembering right. incredible work there. how did they do it?
⚙️New Video!⚙️ One of the first true breakthrough indie games, @SupergiantGames 's Bastion remains a powerful experience. Its voice and distinctive. What does it mean that this voices is focused on misleading the player? Reposts appreciated🙏 Link ⬇️
