ShellshockPrime

I just said this a second ago in an unrelated thread, but I think social media isn't always a good barometer for showing what somebody's life is really like. It's such a small window of a person's entire day/life. Generally speaking, I'm feeling pretty all right, all things considered.

Look, I promise, my Bluesky timeline isn't all doom and gloom.

I have really kind, thoughtful friends. I don't know how I became so fortunate as to have met really nice people despite it all, but I'm grateful for that, and I don't want it to ever be forgotten that I am very lucky.

BTW, @moonlitmaple.bsky.social finished 4th in the Smash Remix tournament.

Also, @shellshockprime.bsky.social was in the Puzzle Fighter II tournament and finished in 3rd.

Quite a medal day for the Digital Bonfire crew!

Dean Cain is the worst Superman ever.

Randomized Game Tournament

So sadly @shellshockprime.bsky.social and I crashed out of the first round...

My game was Super Indie Karts, his was GigaBash.

Perhaps next time.

As some have suggested, report the fuck out of these ads if you see them.

Highly recommend fellow Twitch creators voice their opinions on this. Viewers are getting ICE recruitment ads, something we don't have control over

ICE is violating the rights of people in the US daily. This is promotion of fascism, which has no place ANYWHERE.

Going to take today off and cancel the stream I had planned as I am going to need the extra time to prepare for Long Island Retro Gaming Expo this weekend!

Y'all have a great day!

Here's my Long Island Weekend !

@liretro.bsky.social ! My first time EVER there ! Thank you for having me. Let's celebrate 10 years of LI Retro and 40 years of the NES !

Democrats are trying to court voters in the middle of the political spectrum by avoiding super-effective and attacking moves altogether.

Apparently ICE is about to start putting out ads on platforms?

If these ads come to Twitch, here's a (hopefully) handy tip when one comes on:
1. Click the gear icon, bottom right of the player.
2. Click "Report Playback Issue".
3. Select this option.

Hopefully this will work!

Spoke with an anon source who had an interesting insight into Visa policy. Per a convo with their bank on the Steam/itchio situation today, Visa put new restrictions into place due to a new "government policy." The exact phrase used by Visa. No specific country was listed as the source of the policy

I'm seeing less posts about the Visa and Mastercard situation and I want to make it plain as day. You need to keep calling and bothering them, and losing them money.

Because if we lose this, they are going to cut more and more from what's available until you can only buy what they approve of.

Reminder,

Twitch (and other platforms) don't allow creators to control what ads are run on their streams, videos/VODs, podcasts, etc.

PLEASE don't instantly assume we want this. We're very likely just as pissed off (if not more) than you are about this.

Help us yell at the platform instead.
