Literally no one who follows me is going to know what this means, but HBomberguy, a Youtuber known for Video Essays about pop culture and gaming made a promise that he would live stream himself playing Donkey Kong 64, in its entirety (including picking up every single banana) and all money would go to a UK charity for trans youth (Mermaids) and his initial goal was $3,000 and now it’s been 26 hours into the stream and he’s already over $51k. I just need people to know about this https://m.twitch.tv/hbomberguy
Also, he’s doing it to spite Graham Lineman, a transphobic prick who did some work in some good shows, and helped get Mermaids’ funding by the National Lottery suspended, so because of his temper tantrum, as of the writing of this reblog, he’s raised almost $130k!
i joined and everyone’s talking about OllyTube’s cum what happened
Some other highlights:
-The game keeps breaking up from the seams because the emulator just BARELY can handle the game’s code hacks. The chat has to constantly remind him to save the game in case it crashes entirely.
- Harris took 6 hours off camera to sleep and in the meantime the chat devolved into shitposting about feet and teeth (or FEETH).
- Meanwhile on twitter: Glinneham is throwing a pissy transphobic tantrum on twitter due to the stream while #ThanksGraham has started trending in Europe, U.S. and Australia.
-Insane amount of guest streamers including Chelsea Manning, Jim Sterling, Ollie Thorn and the game’s composer and DK’s voice actor, Grant Kirkhope
- Kirkhope saying TRANS RIGHTS in his DK voice.
You know it’s so rare for “What even is this year” to refer to something good, but I’m glad it is for a change

The original TARDIS police box was a real police box stolen from the street outside of the BBC studio only minutes before filming began on the first episode of Doctor Who. The crime was never reported because the police box was gone and nobody could call in to report it missing.
weirdest thing about videogames is finding new clothing/armor for your character on dead NPCs like “its such a shame greg died but thank god his pants are just my size”
It’s such a shame this spider died. Good thing he was carrying pants, a helmet, and a sword.
“This wolf had five dollars!”
“This bear had a bear skin! Hey, this bear had two bear skins! Wait, did it steal the skin of another bear? Is there some kind of bear mafia, is that what’s going on here?”
is there anything more pathetic than people who try to use big words to sound smarter? like, we fucking get it, you’re insecure and know what a thesaurus is
