#MidwestSpeedfest has been great so far! So many excellent runs and runners - love being a part every year!
This is such an incredible group of folks that show how much of a difference speedrunners can make when we share our love of games TOGETHER. $3000 for #PFund and the #MWSF weekend isn’t over!

It’s time for one of my favorite weeks of the year! #AGDQ2026
Board Boosters is a group that collectively #speedruns a game every other month. Our target games are ones with few runners (<20) on their speedboard, and are generally perceived as underrecognized.
We've been a bit silent lately, but we plan to be back in full capacity in early 2026!
Stay tuned!
Always a blast. Thanks @coheedandcambria.bsky.social for 28 amazing shows and counting.
At Coheed show #27 tonight. …or #28? I honestly can’t keep track anymore.
Continue the fight against AI overlords! authorblues doing great work here
There are few excitements in life that can match the way I feel when going to an American Chinese buffet.
“How sweet is THAT?!”
"I'm right back in that pit I crawled out of. Backwards longjumps couldn't get me out."

I love Pac-man’s signature bowtie! Pac-man wears a bowtie, right? Gotta be a bowtie…
Adding a proper @johnnygo.runisdead.com ping.
Thank you @gamesdonequick.com for allowing me the incredible opportunity to showcase my run with your audience, and for continuing to foster a safe space for community members to connect and share our awesome love for speedrunning. [8/8]
@thisisjayc.bsky.social, @braselthegamer.bsky.social, @tecolote12.bsky.social and many others I met for the first time. I hope to see you again.
There are many folks I merely chatted with and didn’t get to hang with. I feel awful about it, and will make it right in the future. [7/8]
@vainx.bsky.social, JohnnyGo, @bugdoctor.bsky.social - No contest the ones I spent the most time with all week. I had an absolute blast hanging with you all. Not just from simply sharing a love of video games, but genuinely looking forward to your company each day. Genuine lasting friendships. [6/8]
This was my first time running a game on the main stage with Casual Birder. Thank you to @withermin.bsky.social for answering my plea and jumping in on comms, and thank you to @jrisjunior.bsky.social for hosting and connecting with me to ensure the feature would be as successful as it was. [5/8]
@madmegax381.bsky.social, @lrock617.bsky.social, and @ebloodycandy.bsky.social - thank you for letting me join in your love of retro speedrunning. NES Block especially has become a cornerstone of my GDQ experience and I can’t wait to participate and hang with y’all each year. [4/8]
That said - every single year I make it to SGDQ, I feel more and more a part of the speedrunning community. This year especially I felt more connected with people and a true extension of the group. I met new people, made new friends, and extended an arm to new members of the community. [3/8]
nearly as often as I’d like, so these marathons are an important opportunity for me to connect with the communities I hold so dear. Unfortunately, due to a healthy dose of adult-onset introversion, these opportunities also require significant mental gymnastics most of the time. [2/8]
Post-SGDQ Post!
TL;DR - This was easily one of my favorite years at SGDQ.
I’d gone to GDQs in the past, but only really got into speedrunning games myself in late 2020 and regularly going to SGDQ in 2022. For a plethora of reasons, I don’t get time to watch and engage with Twitch streams [1/8]
GGs! Had a blast watching.
Get your Shaq Dances ready!
Thank you!!! Even though it wasn’t announced during the run, thank you so much for donating to the cause 💛 - and thank you so much for such an amazing console and platform for indie developers and gamers everywhere!
