    The first 8 episodes of The Traveling Swordsman Problem are now all up on YouTube! These're a standalone first try at beating BoTW without crossing my path. I got further than I thought I would, honestly.

    The Traveling Swordsman Problem Wednesdays at 7 pm est / 4 pm pst starting November 11th at Twitch.tv/EverEverest
    ok. starting November 11th, i'm gonna be streaming a weekly playthrough of Breath of the Wild where i use the hero's path mode to never cross my own trail; a fiddly, spiraling, backtracking journey that will force me into increasingly byzantine paths through the world.

    Italian singer Adriano Celentano released a song in the 70s with nonsense lyrics meant to sound like American English, apparently to prove Italians would like any English song. It was a hit, and resulted in this: THE GREATEST VIDEO I HAVE EVER SEEN.
