Ad hominem attacks, slurs, & insults are just a loud admission that you lack the logic and intelligence to rationally back up your own opinion. It completely weakens your argument and proves you ran out of facts. Attack positions not people. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.🎤

DYK that there is a utensil called a "Ramen Fork"?! It was invented in 1978 by a restaurant called Sugakiya in Nagoya, Japan. It's a wide deep spoon but with long fork tines at the end, similar to a common "spork" but specifically made to eat ramen! 🤯 I just got some more modern ones on Amazon!

Oh, this isn't a sales pitch for Ramen forks. I've eating a lot of cup noodles lately and i hated having to use both a spoon and a forl/chopsticks so I looked on google if a fork or spoon was best to eat ramen and it gave me a link to that spork!!

I just hit level 20 in Cyberpunk and I still haven't competed The Heist main quest yet. I've been running around doing NCPD events, Cyberpsychos, & gig. This makes me very curious as to what level I can get to before I ever get Johnny Silverhand in my brain. Very tempted to see how high I can get

What is an Open World Football game? Do you roll a QB and wander Detroit hoping a rivalry between the Lions & Bears breaks out? Are you out running lines as a WR1 & suddenly you get pulled into a Falcons game where you need to escort Tua Tagovailoa to the concussion tent? www.ign.com/articles/ea-...

Had someone tell me that I had probably never read a comic book in my life and only knew stuff from the movies and TV shows as an attempt to dismiss my comment's accuracy in a discussion about the VisionQuest TV show. *looks around office confused*

I loathe Twitter. I keep falling for obvious engagement bait from bluechecks posting aggressively ignorant takes just for replies. It got me several times this morning and gave me a headache. I try so hard to engage in good faith, but the toxicity just brings out my inner mean streak & leaves me mad

As a huge BattleTech fan the release of the new Ashes and Ascension DLC for MechWarrior 5 Mercenaries that lets you take part in Operation Bulldog has me wanting to set aside my backlog to and partake in some good old fashion mech on mech carnage.

Did about an hour. Forgot to turn my camera on at first but finally got it up. Had 2-3 viewers I think, but it was pretty quiet. Doesn't help that I have social anxiety & aren't sure how to engage just yet. But it was fun. Confidence will follow!

Why is the "Gaming" feed mostly adult content creators(onlyfans and fansly)? I'm looking for people into...gaming. Im already married to the sexiest woman alive and have been for nearly 30 years now! I have no issue with people wanting to make $ in whatever way they choose, but why the gaming feed?

I’m not sure if I’m more excited for the potential future the Lanterns finale set or wholly disappointed they wasted the acting skills of Kyle Chandler & the potential of some great Hal Jordan stories. I didn’t even like Green Lantern (or DC comics) until I started watching the show 😭

Ever since my son was 3, I told him to sing like no one can hear him. It was my way of telling him to fuck what people think & just do what makes you happy. Pretty ironic advice coming from a guy whose mental health kept him trapped at home terrified of the world & weighed down by zero self-esteem.

He’s 17 now, and I still catch him mouthing song lyrics in the car or singing his lungs out in his room. I spent years trying to teach him how to be fearless, only to realize he was the one showing me how it's done. His resilience is the spark behind this new streaming hobby. Funny how that works.🧵

A great write up for StarCraft 2. I like that RTS games are having a bit of a resurgence with games like Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War 4 & Stronghold 4 coming out soon. I miss the days of RTC dominance with C&C, CoH, Homeworld, & Warcraft 3

StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty is the undisputed heavyweight champion of the RTS genre. It brings incredible production values, refined mechanics and sets a gold standard for RTS games. Here's why it remains a masterpiece. #steamdeck #starcraft2 #wingsofliberty #rts #linuxgaming #pcgaming #dadgamer

With a twelve-year wait, incredible production values and refined mechanics, StarCraft 2: Wings of Liberty defined an entire decade of PC gaming. Here is why it remains a deadset masterpiece.

Survived my first on-camera stream! As someone with AvPD, showing my face on stream is anxiety inducing, so this was a huge test of resilience. Shoutout to my wife for being the sole (and best) viewer. Need to fix some 2nd monitor setup issues before next stream, but an hour in the books feels good.

I finally got to setting up my Twitch "About Me" page. If anyone wants to take a look and/or leave suggestions or comments I'd appreciate both. Eventually I hope to stream on camera along with the games, but need to figure that out. #twitch #streamer #videogames #gamer www.twitch.tv/dadplayingba...

Finished up The Blood of Dawnwalker. I'd give it a solid 8.5/10. Took a bit to get used to the directional combat but once it clicked it was really fun. Story was engaging & left me wanting to play again and make different choices or explore more areas. I'm eager to try different builds. Great game!
