Earlier today, I coined the term “Toro Fatigue” and it’s a little bit scary just freely accepting the fact that I have been in some spaces or around people too much and it can get really tiresome for them. So all I want to say is thank you and apologies for bearing with me and tolerating me.

This comes after a few days of my mental being in a really bad place, lot of self doubt, that I’m still not over, but I’m not gonna let that stop me from at least trying to support my friends at least.

Hey Hotfix fans. I'm back from my hols and need to get my next episode (Fri 6th Nov 7PM ET) prepped. For scheduling reasons, I want to take one long run, give someone a chance to really show off the full extent of their game. Ideally something with a happy tone, around 2:00:00 to 2:15:00. DM me!

It's the year 2026, and we actually have ONLINE MULTIPLAYER IN SPYRO!! But there's even more in store! Spyro Maker is real and I'll have a full video about it in the near future. But for now, enjoy a brief preview where I and other Spyro and PlayStation speedrun legends play SPYRO PROP HUNT!

Shoutouts to the legend Composer, who is responsible for co-developing the Spyro 1 Practice Codes alongside OddKara, for being the incredibly talented programmer that they are for working so tirelessly on this project and more to come! Beta testing Spyro Maker for them has been a super fun time!

Alright gamers. Due to recent FAFSA changes, I didn't get enough funding between my federal loan and my scholarship to completely cover tuition for this semester - my LAST semester of grad school. My birthday is on the 29th. In lieu of gifts, help me pay off what's left 🙏🏽 ko-fi.com/blackheartwi...

Spyro 3 was a bust after getting a hardlock from a glitch about 4 hours into the run..... Buuut I did have enough time to do a quick de-rust run of Pokémon TCG's Hard Mode category and that went exceptionally well! A 1:05 on a de-rust is fantastic!

Yeah, that’s it, shut the whole thing down! WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE PLAYED ON NO SLEEP AND WITH BLOOD CLOTS IN HIS LUNGS?!?!

Ian Rapoport@rapsheet.bsky.social

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs. Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played the game without having slept. Crazy.

Ok so apparently posting what it looks like in its best qualiry is like pulling teeth, so here it is!

I am not by any means great at making emotes, but I'm also poor and don't have as much disposable income as I'd want to commission folks, so I figured, "f*** it" and made an emote of Piplup hoisting the Puerto Rico flag!

Was reminded a few days ago that it’s 9 years to the day I covered a boxing card in Brooklyn, headlined by Erislanda Lara vs. Terrell Gausha, one of the WORST world championship fights I’ve ever witnessed. Thousands of people booed the fight all throughout and thousands more left the arena early.

HI HELLO IT'S BEEN LIKE 3 HOURS AND THE GOAL HAS BEEN MET?? WHAT? I shot this into the dark at the beginning of my workday and I'm not even done with my shift. Thank you all so so much! Please don't sent me more money. If you have the means, here's a thread of other people around who need help 🧵

I think I just slept for almost 10 hours, hot dog! Haven’t slept that long in ages! I did not realize how exhausted I was after that run until I laid in bed afterwards.

AAAAAND TIME!!! This was a rollercoaster of a run and this beat out the time I set in my last Hotfix appearance of this category.... BY FOUR SECONDS!! Nights like these are a reminder of the fun I have with this hobby and how it's not gonna stop anytime soon!

Again, cannot thank GDQ and everyone involved for giving me opportunities like these and to be on their platforms. Every appearance is a gift and a privilege and I cannot be more appreciative of all of you who actually like seeing me do these runs!
