Friends who still post on Twitter: Why? No judgement zone here. I get that for some it's a reach thing, but I'm genuinely curious.

Seattle friends, looks like we’re gonna get the far end of the Spokane smoke the next few days, in the midst of the heat wave. Be ready and stay safe.

As much as I hate the mode, the Gambit games I just played to finish the Immortal title were fast and easy. Two wins, one loss, top of team each time. GG.

I’m scrolling the Twitch iOS app to have the algo surface someone to watch (found someone too!), and the number of folks that actually have a vertical rendition setup is criminally small. This will be the single best discovery tool on Twitch going forward IMO (don’t quote me I’m just in marketing).

One of my favorite pieces of "ancient" Twitch lore is why the Globals :PowerUpL: and :PowerUpR: exist. I bet most folks either don't know, or have forgotten.

🔥 The Blacksky mobile app is here. Today we're opening up our public beta on both iOS and Android. If you've been waiting for a native mobile experience, now's your chance to try it before our full public launch and help us make it even better. 🧵👇

I know it's not particularly difficult, but I've figured out how to make a really tasty Old Fashioned at home, and it's great.

My fiance's out of town on a much deserved vacation, and I'm here with our cat alone for the first time since we got him. He's been just chilling in the Amazon box he likes to sleep in while I'm playing games on my computer, and it's just chill.

The problem right now with Doomsday’s trailer and The Odyssey being out at the same time is any time I see “Cyclops…” in a post, I have to quickly reframe which context I need to be in.

I’ve discovered a bug in MacOS with Firefox playing live video to Bluetooth headphones, that causes audio desync. I thought it could be just a Twitch issue at first, but my retro steps for YouTube Live are the same. Browser bugs are dumb.

That feel when you discover an audio playback desync bug that is almost entirely caused by a pair of bluetooth earbuds (I have to test with other bluetooth earbuds when I get home). Technology is silly.

Chatter in @hellodatto.bsky.social's stream "Loving the look (I used to be that username, but now I'm this username because yesterday I came out as trans)" Chat, universally: CONGRATULATIONS! That's when you know you've found a good community.

Any time someone doubts the musical ability of T-Pain, I’ll direct them to his cover of War Pigs. There are many other examples, but that cover is so good.

Air Quality is horrible in Cleveland, Ohio. If you are unable to find safety within your home, I’m dropping a list of Recreation Centers (with clean air+AC) that have extended hours today and tomorrow. As a person with asthma, I’m urging folks with respiratory issues to stay inside and stay cool.

I flew too close to the sun this morning, and my cat bit my wrist. He’s a bitey boy, but this was a harder than normal bite. Ah well.
