First time seeing End of Evangelion in theaters, amazing experience. Haven't watched it in a few years and it's wildly more hopeful than I remembered. You are alive, so you will always have the chance to be happy.

Wanna see us live route a speedrun with Absol, Mantyke, Porygon, Hitmontop, or Teddiursa?? On Sunday we'll be doing just that at twitch.tv/rejectsandfriends to raise money for Planned Parenthood! Check out the program below and be sure to donate to decide which Pokemon we use!

Had the extremely rare opportunity to use a legit Deoxys Distribution event cartridge from 2008 and record it in action! Never went to an event distribution as a kid so this was neat to finally see. Thank you @retroislandny.com!

That KH4 trailer is the most FF13 Versus thing I've ever seen. I'm so scared like 50% of that is just straight up not gonna be in the game, especially with no release date 😭

BIG NEWS for anyone that was interested in seeing this: We'll be running it for @rejectsandfriends.bsky.social on July 26th, benefiting Planned Parenthood! Come check it out along with other cool runs as we raise funds for a great cause :) tinyurl.com/rafrf2026

I have one GDQ submission this time: A live routed Pokemon Platinum speedrun with an audience-chosen Pokemon that's never been routed before. We'll be doing damage calcs, fight/catch planning, shopping routing, and more in real-time. Our test run with Torchic was SUPER FUN, hopefully it gets in 🤞.

GDQ submission text: Routing is the most interesting aspect of Pokemon speedrunning, and its the side we never get to show at GDQ. Every Pokemon speedrun route is the result of countless hours of work from many community members over the years, and just explaining the routing process during a marathon run is a disservice to how fun, challenging, and rewarding it is. We want to finally showcase the best part of Pokemon speedrunning on the GDQ stage, by routing a Pokemon speedrun that has never been done before, live. With a lot of help from my couch, we'll be calculating damage, figuring out the fastest way to win fights, determining item pick ups/shopping menus, & more. This is a Glitchless/Manipless Custom Starter speedrun of Pokemon Platinum, beating the game from start to finish with a Pokemon that has never been routed before. I've vetted 20+ Pokemon that will be viable mains, and we'll have a bid war between them to determine which Pokemon we use. We'll use ACE or other means to speed up text/HP.
