Thank you to David for organizing this. My entire world has gone overnight and I just don't even know where to begin to express my gratitude. -

The only thing I know how to to today is to try to help a family. Please join me in remembering John and supporting Genna.

Love you guys so much.
A supposedly miraculous turn of events the pills for my liver that had a low chance of success worked allowing me today to have the surgery to put in a permanent drain meaning finally I can hopefully get rid of most of this pain PS not a cure for cancer
It’s funny watching delusional people like Logan Paul claim his fan base is mostly college-goers. Nah m8 you have an army of boys whose balls ain’t dropped yet who haven’t learned a thing about life. Those are the people you impress. You’re a sociopathic Barney the Dinosaur.
My. Neighbour died while I was in hospital. Nobody told me until then because they didn't think it would help. 12 the restful sleep of sleep of a 12 battle, surrounded by family and friends. She was 65. Rest in peace J.
That's my easy way of say of saying, my surgery succeeded and I'm home. I'm no longer trapped unable to piss, gradually about to explode. Thank fuxk.... Buy my game of the year 2014
Hey remember when ISPs were given $400B of tax payers money to build fiber network across America and get highspeed internet to everyone?
Don’t worry, neither do they.
in for surgery this morning. potentially life charging in terms of pain management.
no show this week, hopefully we can make up for it when the indescribable pressure is relieved.
I just wanted to clarify that the vod for this week's Co-optional Podcast will be uploaded and available on the YouTube channel tomorrow as per usual. -

Anyway, means chemo doesn't work anymore. only options left are very poor ones so I am moving straight into a clinical trial I am eligible for. Won't be any quit here while I still have options to try.
Gen: ‘you need to name this neck tumor before you get it cut out’
TB: ‘Battlefront 2’
Gen: ‘isn’t that a little harsh?’
TB: ‘you’re right, nothing deserves that, I’m sorry malignancy, please forgive me’
EA makes the mistake of trying to justify their terrible Battlefront 2 progression system in front of a hostile crowd. Becomes literally the most downvoted Reddit comment of all time in under a day
It's been a rough week. Lot working against me. My ultra supportive parents dropping everything to fly transatlantic to help out? Not one of them. I'm extremely lucky to have them and so glad they're here.
My wife
@GennaBain
is the strongest person I know. It’s beyond just being lucky to have her, I wouldn’t be here anymore if I didn’t. She’s my strength when it feels like I have none more to give.
Yeah, this chemo has stopped working. Was gonna happen eventually. Thankfully there are more types, switching to another type. Not great. Not in another organ but, growth started again
A group of IGN employees are striking until the company issues a statement/apology regarding cases of sexual harassment. Putting your job on the line in order to stand for something takes real courage, nothing but respect for that.
I’m thankful for as many days as I have left and getting to spend them doing what I love with my family around me.
Hope everyone celebrating had a good thanksgiving.
Oh look, you got greedy and pushed too far and now you've got a government coming down on your heads. Well done greedy publishers, enjoy the fruits of your labour -
So, hospitalized. Took them a lot of medicine to get the pain managed. We now know the cause unfortunately, which is spread of the disease putting pressure on my spine.
I am more angry at my so called back specialist for completely missing it honestly.
Thank you
@GennaBain
for taking care of me. Right now I can’t take care of myself, but she’s always there for me, despite how awful this shit must be for her. I don’t deserve that level of commitment and I’m very fortunate to have it anyway

VIDEOGAMES ARE TO BLAME FOR EVERYTHING, WELCOME BACK TO THE 90S ONLY WITH ALL THE GOOD BITS TAKEN OUT
Had to cancel a card on a joint account after the missus noticed purchases from a flower shop in Paris. Next time, if you're gonna steal my card info, can you just buy drugs or something, rather than having to explain to my wife that I'm not buying flowers for a French tart?
@jk_rowling
Ms Rowling please. I encourage you to use your platform as you have in the past to bring focus to important issues rather than nontroversies
‘Complaining doesn’t do anything’. Except when it does. Not that keen on this ‘later date’ nonsense though.
Anyway, apathy isn’t impressive to anyone. Make noise when this kind of thing happens.
Today, we turned off in-game purchases for
#StarWarsBattlefrontII
. The game is built on your input, and it will continue to evolve and grow. Read the full update:
EA claims the amount of time it takes to unlock heroes like Luke in Battlefront 2 is to provide a ‘sense of achievement’. One assumes that sense of achievement is of no concern to them if people just buy lootboxes though. So transparent.

@jk_rowling
Sure. Basically the video was edited. Trump did shake the kids hand, that bit was cut. I think this is divide/distract attempt by bad actors
Just to be clear, unsolicited ‘medical advice’ from people online isn’t welcome. I have access to excellent cancer institutes in NC and great doctors. I’m going to listen to them, not some health blog and especially not your conspiracy theories. Cheers.
These tiny hospital beds would not be suitable for 2 you would think but we beg to differ. I remember when we were broke we just had a cheap couch, thinner than this, we both slept on that. There are times you are allowed to be clingy and needy. Cuddle rations are lifted.
