The fundamental misunderstanding here (other than being a shit person) is the belief that GDQ is a speedrunning marathon.

It isn't.

GDQ is a charity marathon. It exists to raise money for charity. It does that through speedrunning and high-level gaming.

Charity first. That's the priority.

How to Handle Con Crash Like a Pro - Take This You waited for your favorite con all year. You followed it on Twitter and Facebook. You had three screens ready to rapidly refresh and get your tickets as soon as…

Whether you were physically at #SGDQ2025 or not, the time after a con can be especially hard. This may help some. Please remember that you’re loved. www.takethis.org/2017/09/how-...

I can’t stop thinking about @anarchyasf.com’s incredible Wolfenstein II run last night at Games Done Quick. especially her incredibly powerful and necessary closing remarks. stomping out fascism is our only option!!!

That was such a lovely run!!

I have spent so many nights watching GDQ at 3am because of The Disability™️. I respect where you’re coming from and fully support it…despite wishing you didn’t deal with whatever your personal shenanigans are. Keep doin’ the thing and know you aren’t alone in it!

You did great! Yours was the first run I saw after waking up this morning and a lovely one to watch while prepping coffee.

Gdq always reminds us that games and gamers can be good and DO good!!!!!! I love you gdq

Appreciate @shout.rocks shouting out JoCo just now in the segment. As fun as this Pictionary section has been, I’d’ve been fine listening to more stories from the early days of Steam…because I too was alive when the Earth was created.

So, years ago, this was one of the joke banners for PAX West. I happened to be the guy making the announcements at the beginning/ending of the day in the Expo Hall at the time, so each of them made a reference to one of her movies in some way.

David Lynch, 2 panels. first: one day, the sadness will end. second: but I don't think today is the day.

Sounds like winning to me.

1st panel - a patient says 'i have a 1:30 appointment. receptionist says 'which doctor? 2nd panel - patient says 'no, I want the regular doctor.'

I agree.

In a functioning democracy, we would already be in the midst of an impeachment trial.

no one who hasn't experienced chronic illness will understand the devastating grief of letting go of another day of your life. When you try to be active whatever that means for you and you realize you just can't do it today, that you have to let the day go and hope for tomorrow. @dafoewhitney

I told my wife the whole saga. It was such fun as it all unfolded along with the monkey’s paw there at the end.

Amazing. Thank you for that.

After she started the C-sides, someone in chat chimed up with “Finally justice for FiftyDollars” and I was afraid my laughter would wake up my kids.

I admire your restraint…to not just go out and buy chocolate.
