As someone who once got brigaded on X for saying that Mang0 has a drinking problem I feel vindicated today but also just sad. He's a dad and a husband in his 30's and he still thinks it's cool to act that way. I hope he's genuine and he gets the help he needs for his family but mostly for himself.

Please humor my non smash related proud dad post. Bubblegum had a vocal solo in her school's black history month performance last night and absolutely nailed it! Up until she auditioned for this i had never heard her sing really. She nailed it!

I dunno about y'all but lately it's been real hard to be on social media. Even this site which is so much more positive is just depressing reading all the constant news of what's going on. If you need to take a break for your mental health please do so. Take care of yourselves and each other folks!

Not sure what it says about me that my favorite Daft punk song of all time is "human after all" and i don't know why. Normally songs that repeat the same thing over and over again drive me insane but for some reason that song tickles my brain in a way that nothing else does.

The new Lady Gaga song is pretty great. It's nice to see her get back to the dance genre after exploring some other ones for a while. I have always and will always be a huge fan of hers. It seems that when times are darkest, that's when the best art comes out. At least we have that going for us lol.

Just a reminder to Nintendo that Yoshi's woolly world is still locked to the WiiU and doesn't deserve to be. It's a fantastic game that should have been ported to the Switch years ago. That is all. #nintendo #wiiu #yoshi

It's been a few days with no Twitter and i can already tell a difference in my mental state of being. It's astonishing how toxic and negative that entire site is now. This place needs more traffic tho. Still feels too empty.

Officially left twitter today after downloading an archive of all of my data from there. It's hard to leave behind something that was so great for a long time but there is just no fixing that site. It is truly forever lost to the darkness.

Just a reminder that he cannot be the world's smartest person akin to Tony Stark and also be an "oopsy doopsy oh gosh golly I'm a silly billy i didn't know that was a Nazi sawute I'm sowwy" at the same time. He knew what he was doing. Don't let them fool you.

Super Smash Bros Ultimate was released 6 years ago! I drew this at the time to celebrate the release. It's definitely aged, but still means a lot to me. I worked on the details painstakingly and used alcohol markers on top of watercolor for the first time, something I do all the time now! #art

Today I'm thankful for a lot of things but I'm most thankful for my smart and beautiful daughter and the family we've made with my girlfriend and her son. I'm also thankful for all of you that cared about my daughter playing this silly game. Y'all are all very special.

Three years ago today bubblegum went to her first smash tournament. I cannot believe she's still doing it. Life has been getting in the way of competing lately but we plan to start back up again after the holidays and stay consistent. Smash forever y'all.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Remember those who have been killed, injured, abused, tortured for being who they are. Remember those who have taken their own lives because they could not live in a world where they could not be themselves. Remember them. And make the world remember them.

So MX keyboard switches have wildly different pre travel distances so my idea of being able to use any switches you want in one housing won't work. Thankfully tho low profile choc switches all have the same pre travel distances so I'm gonna design for those. A setback but a better path forward!

My daughter went viral for winning a set at a smash tournament when she was 8 years old. They even wrote a dexerto article about it. It was truly bananas!

I have a game. What were you "known" for on Twitter? I'll go first. I'm the woman who caused Dave Ramsey to mass-block Royals Twitter.

We really need some Yugi-oh masters to start wielding the Constitution like yugi would wield his kuriboh's to stop the blue eyed white dragons attacks and win. Basically what I'm saying is where are the nerds with a game plan to stop this nonsense?

Reached the orange ranks on Tekken tonight. This is a big deal for me. As someone who's always loved fighting games but never been good at them it's starting to click for me. I really wish smash had this online ranking system. It's so rewarding to finally hit that next rank!

Catching up on vods from The throne 2 this morning and I cannot tell you how good it feels to have MKLeo back in the mix. I love watching him when he is in top form and i feel like next year if he keeps up this trajectory he's gonna be back fighting for the top again. This is so awesome!

I will never forgive the zoomer generation for getting Creed stuck in my head 20 something years after we had successfully deleted them from existence. We had slayed that dragon but nooooo. You thought it was funny so you brought it back to life. This is elder abuse!

Kinda wild that when you have the world's richest person buy the world's largest social media site and blatantly turn it into a propaganda machine, that's super effective! Who knew?!? We will get through this and we will never stop fighting for what is right. Progress never stops.
