You know when you walk away from something and just know it was good? Yeah. This episode was that.

Recorded one banger of a podcast episode with @noodlesource.fyi yesterday. Always a good time just chatting random bullshit between the two of us.

Fair warning, there is more than the usual amount of talk about foreskin

Genuine. Fucking. FOMO.

Absolutely phenomenal, though. Such a massive moment for Soken and the band!

A humidifier on the sink in front of a bathroom mirror. The combination of small "on" and "full" lights above a wide curved vent make a pleasant smiling face and on the back of the humidifier, which can be seen in the mirror, another wide curved air vent and the two screws holding it together above it make a horrified face.

SDHQ 🤝 Metacritic

We’re officially on the critic list!

From deep dives on Steam Deck performance to contributing to the review average next to the industry’s heavyweights… yeah, that’s wild.

A screenshot of Bowser Jr. celebrating a tennis victory as Diddy Kong falls behind him. Text on screen says “Game, Set & Match – Noodle,” with the score displayed as 7–0 in Bowser Jr.’s favor.

Seriously, don’t even try and come for me on Mario Tennis Fever. I will destroy you.

A screenshot of Princess Daisy from Mario Tennis Fever, lying in a bed, tucked under white covers with only her head visible. She looks wide-eyed and distressed, staring upward. On-screen text reads: “And despite getting lots of rest, she showed no signs of improving.”

Day 1 at the gym: feeling motivated.
Morning after: cue cutscene

Looking for PC headphone recommendations! I’ve pretty much only used Razer stuff, so I don’t really know what else is worth looking at.

Mainly for gaming and general use, with comfort and high-quality audio being my main wants/needs.

What are you all using?

Great review, looking forward to giving this a go. I absolutely adored Aces online.

This might be the best article I’ve ever read, and genuinely made me laugh out loud multiple times. Absolute and utter perfection.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

Victory screen from Highguard showing a 10–0 win after a 30:37 match. Three mounted characters are posed in front of a castle courtyard with flaming braziers; a large black wolf with glowing yellow eyes stands in the center foreground. The middle player, “NoodleSource,” leads the team with 32 eliminations and 2 assists, 1 shieldbreaker planted, 6 walls destroyed, and 4 ultimate powers used. Teammates “nikitin21” (14 eliminations, 1 assist) and “VolatilePlacebo” (9 eliminations, 3 assists) appear on either side with their respective stats displayed beneath them. The word “VICTORY” is shown prominently at the top of the screen.

You know what? I genuinely really like Highguard.

Even more when my most recent end screen confirms I was the one that carried (kills-wise, at least - the game itself was horrendously close)

I might be late to the party on this, but Diablo IV being just so damn perfect on the Steam Deck is potentially very dangerous for me...
