"Hey Higgins, why no streams lately?" Well, my partner and I are getting ready to sell our condo and buy a new place, so it's been a lot of prep for that. If you need a fix, I'm doing some short form MtG content over on TikTok under the handle RetroFrame Gaming.

Haven't we all known Jerry Seinfeld is disgusting asshole for a while now? Bro dated a 17 year old highschooler when he was 39.

Someone got my phone number on a GOP call list (and definitely gave them a name that's not mine) so I decided to reply....

From: Me To: Whomever needs to hear it Subject: Harry Potter Just fucking let it go. Seriously. I get it. It's a source of joy. But your joy has been weaponized. You have been made a participant in cruelty, whether you see it or not. Let. It. Go.

Been deep into #Valheim with 1.0. A few days ago I started on my homage to the gleaming hall of Edoras. New Meduseld wont be built in a day, and might never truly be finished, but I am super proud of what I have so far.

For my Switch 2: picked up Breath of the Wild, preordered Ocarina of Time remake, downloaded the GameCube "emulator" for Windwaker. Any non-Zelda games I should have an eye on?

Sold some luxury cardboard, gonna buy a Switch 2. Then once my home buying/selling things settle down, I'll be back to streaming, and probably Doug. Some Zelda playthroughs!

I wanna make some Badge Ribbons for PAX East next year that say, "I Still Play Destiny 2" But.... I know as soon as I do, we'll get a D3 announcement and I'll have wasted some money. So I guess, what I'm saying is, you can all thank me in 6-8 weeks.

So like, should I just sell my OLED Zelda Switch at this point and get the Switch 2? I feel like I kinda got bamboozled buying the OLED, even if that was a few years ago.

This is incredibly disappointing. I hope PAX realize just how important this is to so many and rights the ship.

Went from 35min remaining in queue before the pause to now back to over an hour when the line started moving again. How does that happen when I remained on the page and never refreshed? Seriously absolute abysmal experience today.

This project just launched!! It's such a fantastic toolkit for TTRPGs and is made by some of the best people I've met in the industry. Definitely go check it out and back it if you can. :)

Truth be told, people would be alot less upset with Instagram MTG Ambassadors if the product allocation wasnt scuffed and the premium boxes weren't being price gouged up to 700eu/$1000. The frustrations are very valid - but the wrong people are getting the barbed feedback.

Hope you like staying an extra night in Indy!! This has been an absolute nightmare by Delta Airlines.

Delay. Rebook. Delay. Rebook. Delay So much fun traveling by air nowadays.

This Gen Con has been truly great. I've worked hard, played hard, and socialized hard. I'm still working for a while, but my heart is full.

Collected all the Hobbit Door QR codes for the scavenger hunt last night. Get up early to get in line for rope drop on redemption. Arrive 1h45m early. Still probably 150-200 people in front of me. 🙄 #GenCon #MTGxTheHobbit

Sorry for the lack of #GenCon updates, especially not sharing my food. It's been the busiest convention for me to date and I've been in a daze for three 48 hours. Game hard, my friends!

Sorry, I had thoughts. It will most likely happen again. #blog 💖 1. I love D&D, it is my *comfort* game. 2. Not everything needs to be made "D&D compatible". 3. We all have got to start playing diverse, smaller, and weirder systems if the hobby and industry are gonna get past the D&D juggernaut.

urbanbohemian.comEverything Doesn’t Need to be D&D Compatible | urbanbohemianI love D&D, but every game doesn't need a D&D-compatible version. Games and settings and systems need to stand on their own and we need to embrace that more.

Hey #GenConsky! (Is that even a thing?) What are some TTRPGs and/or board games I have to check out this weekend? I have a demo of the LotR: King's Gambit planned already, and I ordered a copy of Wingspan Pocket for pick up while there, but what else? #GenCon2026
