Damn proud of Minnesota.

As one of the first donators for Shuckle before this Emerald run even started, I could not have asked for a better outcome. GG @adef.bsky.social and thanks everyone for another great GDQ! #AGDQ2026

70 Star Relay is off to a great start! #AGDQ2026

It really is that good! More people need to play Rhythm Doctor

Huge congrats to @connor75.bsky.social and @keiperdontcare.bsky.social for the dk64randomizer.com run. The DK64 community is truly is one of the best around! #AGDQ2026

DK64 Randomizer soon on twitch.tv/gamesdonequick

And definitely here for the OoT landslide win.

DK as a Zelda game has me picturing Zelda characters as Kongs. Zelda Kong. Ganon Kong. Tingle Kong. And every pickup Link Kong's saying "Oh Ru-pee!"

Really appreciate this style of end of year list. I'd like to think I'm pretty in tune with most releases, but this shows how broad the medium is.

Just played Many Nights a Whisper and it's such a gem. Succinct, impactful, and my time learning speedrun glitch setups in other games paid off here.

Never realized how much I wanted to hear Benoit Blanc say Scooby Dooby-Doo. Wake Up Dead Man was great!

Rental Family is a beautiful look at mental health and interpersonal relations in Japan, but Brendan Fraser playing All Japan Pro Wrestling on a Dreamcast in 2025 sealed it as my favorite movie so far this year.

That feeling when years of horror games have made you too hard boiled to be scared by haunted house actors so you just encourage them to scare the people in front of you and relish in some second hand screams.

Frankenstein is so gorgeously gothic. Easily the most visually interesting film this year. Del Toro just knows how to make an enjoyable monster movie.

Indy the golden retriever and star of the 2025 film Good Boy being charismatic as heck.

Just got out of theater from Good Boy and the range of emotion seemingly coming out of this dog is unreal. The low camera angles and obscured human faces just work so well to center you in Indy's perspective. Such a unique watch!

Explain your username:

It's not actually "Chuckles". It's a combo of Chuck and Les named for my uncle and dad. Everyone read it as Chuckles and it fit so I just rolled with it.

825 was my BSA troop. Scouts gets a deserved bad rap, but that troop was wild. Great times with the nerds/hellraisers.

So ready for December!

Weapons is a slow burn horror with some of the funniest moments in years. The best crowd experience I've had in a long time. This is the why I go to the theater.

Big weird vibes this weekend. Weird Al concert and The Naked Gun made quite the pairing.

It's both hilarious and scary how accurately Eddington portrays 2020 culture. It's so distinct yet we haven't moved past it. Like trying to satirize a documentary that's still ongoing. Any other timeline and this movie would be surrealist. Worthwhile thriller if you can handle that.

Limiter Cut and @themegas.bsky.social, the only two bands to play at a GDQ, meet up!

I'd like to comment on being mentioned in the Lateral podcast, but I'm still getting over that wild opening question.

The sheer coincidence lol. Long time fan of Tom Scott, but I just started listening to Lateral last week.

So proud of everyone that made this happen!

Time to start manifesting new Crazy Taxi vibes. It's got to show up at one of these events sooner or later.

Statement from Tristan Kern de Gonzales Husband of Jonathan Joss My husband Jonathan Joss and I were involved in a shooting while checking the mail at the site of our former home. That home was burned down after over two years of threats from people in the area who repeatedly told us they would set it on fire. We reported these threats to law enforcement multiple times and nothing was done. Throughout that time we were harassed regularly by individuals who made it clear they did not accept our relationship. Much of the harassment was openly homophobic. When we returned to the site to check our mail we discovered the skull of one of our dogs and its harness placed in clear view. This caused both of us severe emotional distress. We began yelling and crying in response to the pain of what we saw. While we were doing this a man approached us. He started yelling violent homophobic slurs at us. He then raised a gun from his lap and fired. Jonathan and I had no weapons. We were not threatening anyone. We were grieving. We were standing side by side. When the man fired Jonathan pushed me out of the way. He saved my life. Jonathan is my husband. He gave me more love in our time together than most people ever get. We were newlyweds. We picked Valentines Day. We were in the process of looking for a trailer and planning our future. He was murdered by someone who could not stand the sight of two men loving each other. I was with him when he passed. I told him how much he was loved. To everyone who supported him, his fans, his friends, know that he valued you deeply. He saw you as family. My focus now is on protecting Jonathan’s legacy and honoring the life we built together. If your concern is how someone coped with trauma or how loudly they speak when recounting injustice and being ignored by authorities then you never truly cared about my husband. Jonathan saved my life. I will carry that forward. I will protect what he built. Tristan Kern de Gonzales

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today.

I'm so angry.

Folks in the EU, I highly recommend lending your signature to this! Game preservation needs it!

Great mix of campy horror, self-parody, and series callbacks. Tony Todd's final scene was perfect.
