DING! Pinch yourself, because you're not dreaming - @bloupeuh.bsky.social is taking us on a Gourmet Race through Kirby's Dream Land Any%! #GDQueer

Humorous edit of the Kirby's Dream Land Gameboy Boxart. Text reads "QueerBY'S Ding! Land" with a white Kirby wearing goggles and with a spine, resembling GDQueer mascot Byte, Whispy Woods background.

Don't touch that... dial? Not gonna lie, I felt my back going out mid-pun. Shoutouts to ageing. Or shrimping. Friendly reminder to get up and stretch! 🤣 Fortunately, @mr-shasta.fastestfurs.com's WarioWare: Touched speedrun is a timeless classic you won't want to miss out on! #GDQueer

Shoutouts to spiro! (or maybe callouts, let's be honest 😂) Either way, I hope you're all remembering to stay hydrated, friends! #GDQueer

Sometimes, even speedrunners need to stop and ask for directions. (Also did you know that gamers do, in fact, look up?) #GDQueer

SRC changed their terms of use yesterday, and released a news post with an FAQ. They make it sound like not a big deal. It's a big deal. The Creative Commons licence is gone. They claim ownership over the data now. Thread about what this means, and what we can do about it 🧵

Another event done and I was so happy and honored to be back as a Chat Mod Coordinator this time around, and also as a runner with good friends along for the ride. We put in great work and raised a bunch of money for an amazing cause. #FlameFatales was a resounding success, y'all!
