One of our programmers used to attend Sean's meet ups after school in his attempts to learn to breakdance and while he admits he wasn't the best, Sean never told him to stop coming. Sean made so many families/people happy and he will be missed by the YEG community. Rest in Peace Sean.

We recently learned of the passing of Sean Paul Arceta, also known as B-Boy Pharush and YEG Spiderman, and are incredibly sad to hear this news. Sean visited our booth and played Otter Half with us this summer at KDays, fully in character, and delighted so many families and children.

I just have no idea? What could it be?

the otters loved their popsicles on a hot day, and it was very inspiring to learn how to support the otters in their natural ecosystems while getting SO MUCH reference footage

Thinking about Gniesbert again

A german screenshot of a twitter post

It says Mein scheiss hund gniesbert ist schon wieder in meinen gaming pc geklettert

It translates ti My shitty dog gniesbert climbed into my gaming PC again

It shows a picture of a Shiba Inu in a box(maybe a gaming PC?) who is very content with himself.
