Slight update: I was able to convince my manager to move me into a different department, & the work I started doing today certainly felt a lot better for everything except the last 2 hours of it. I'm doing stretches/breaks constantly & taking lots of precautions, but it's still hard on my body... :(

I'm literally slowly developing right hand/arm muscle weakness & pain, and I have no way out of continuing to work the job that's causing it to be this bad in the first place. Can't even guarantee I'll see a doctor this week :( Please let me survive this week, let alone this month...

Experienced an underground cave exploring tour for the 1st time today, and it was awesome! Took this photo while there, and I love how it came out :D

Hi Bluesky! :3 Life's been VERY busy atm with my new job, so wanted to post about the games I've played and/or beaten lately :D -Bubsy 4D (100%) -Star Fox Remake (All Unique Stages) -Zelda Link to the Past (100%) -Rhythm Heaven Groove (All 1P Medals) -Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (All Stories)

Haven't posted here in a bit, so wanted to share an IRL update: Starting in July, I will *finally* be employed full-time!!! It was a mess trying to balance a job offer I received while I was also waiting on a DIFFERENT COMPANY for a SEPARATE role, but I'm glad it got figured out :3 We push onward.

I am now 25 years old today :3 I've changed a lot, but life will always keep on moving. Here's to many more 🎉

I forgot to post about it, but I recently attended SMB1WC at Socal Gaming Expo in California (same place as CTWC) and it was AMAZING! I redeemed myself hard from last year in the any% races (got 5th/15) & had so much fun hanging out with all the SMB people :3 (Tetris was hype too) Until next year!!

Happy Pride Month!!!!

Very random, but I want to post that I FINALLY got my 1st ever 8-C wall jump frame save full room in SMB1 8-4. This singular frame save in 8-4 IL has alluded me for so long because I couldn't figure out how to actually perform the FFA (falling fast accel) technique needed to achieve it. Until now :3

If somebody told me: "You will PB in SMB1 Warpless by a single frame somehow" I would respond with: "....yeah that's some bullshit that'd happen to me 💀" 19:10.306 what is life man

PB by 0.2, 1:05.617 banana

This game is peak I'm afraid

"hey Spiker, how's being unemployed going?" How it's going:

Forgot to post this because Bluesky was down, but I got 11:02 in SMB3 any% No Wrong Warp today!!! Was doing attempts with the 0 hands manip & this run was too far behind when going down the pipe to get the manip, BUT I GOT NO HANDS ANYWAY by sheer luck LOL 1st PB with no hands, sub 11 is next :3

"it was at this moment he knew, he fucked up" 0 hands manip for this category is an absolute lifesaver LOL, but go figure my 1st run to BC on strong PB pace dies like this 😔 oh well, still more gaming to do

To prep for me attending the SMB1 tournament at the con CTWC is at this year, I decided to pick up the run of "11x any%" which is literally doing any% 11 times in a row 💀 It's weird but very good for developing consistency for the event. This run got me a 57:39 (after retime) Could be worse ig

Regular Show: The Lost Tapes Ep 1-6 were fire, it's incredible that the show still manages to have the same on-point humor that the OG show had. Ep 2's animation was really rough tho I'm ngl, but the overall episodes were funny asf and kept the same Regular Show charm :D Looking forward to more 👀

I hate to feel the need to post something like this, but Life as of late has been incredibly frustrating, so much of it feels like I've lost my sense of direction of where to go & what to do. I've desperately missed having people to earnestly talk to about life/feelings/goals, but idk who I have :(

Thank you to @furryweekend.com and our entire Fastest Furs Community! Between our live event this weekend and our previous online marathon in April, we raised a total of $16,896 for Lost-n-Found Youth Atlanta!! We'll see you next time, for Fall Fest 2026!!! 🧡💛

I feel like this is the first time I've ever had a pfp that makes me feel super connected to my fursona in a way that ik I've wanted for a long time. It's a very heartwarming kinda feeling, especially when I see it and think "wow I look so handsome :3" haha if he was real, I *would* pet him 100% 👀

something something being autistic

New pfp! Artist is @coyote-teethz.bsky.social thank you so much!

Bubsy 4D feels absolutely insane with its movement capabilities, the speedrun is gonna be nuts if my gameplay is anything to go by. 1-1 alone is a really good IL to show just how crazy it can be

Today I went to an irl Florida Market event. Saw lots of furries, bought epic stuff, very fun time. While I was there, I saw someone wearing a Silent Hill 4: The Room shirt. Pretty cool, right? Except I started a playthrough of that game 2 years ago and only JUST yesterday picked it back up HOW TF

Imagine an alternate universe, where the SMB1 speedrunning community timed runs via TAS timing... -runs slower than 4:56.711 would no longer be sub 5 in any% -the human limit would be 4:57.543 (4:57.310 w/ L+R) -sub 5 would require hard tricks like FPG/1 Frame wall-jump/BBG all in one run 😱 scary

happy 20th anniversary to okami, one of my favourite games of all time!!! 🐺🌸 #okami #大神 #大神20周年
