First time online in 14 days after an Atlantic cruise reset. Currently guarding luggage outside the London Natural History Museum while the family explores.

What's fun to do in London? Gimme recommendations!

@Delta I need urgent help switching a flight this Thursday from ATL to CLT due to the TSA delays. Can someone please DM me so I can share my details?

GDC energy is unmatched. Nothing beats catching up with old friends and meeting new ones over a bowl of ramen. 🍜 #GDC2026 #GameDev

I just made the most meaningful $5 of my career with the first sale of #BricksOverBlocks! Our indie studio, WalterNet Games, is fully independent, no publishers or investors, and that $5 proves we're on our way. This is only the beginning! #indiegames #gamedesign

@alexstein99 They might hate me this much. Never really thought about it until now.

Just two days ago, we dropped our first major update for Bricks Over Blocks!

And the response has been incredible! We’ve jumped from 20,000 to nearly 60,000 owners in just two days! 🤯
If you haven’t grabbed it yet, now’s your chance! 🔥 #IndieGameDev #indiegame

[CheckpointProfessor @checkpointprof]

Big update for Bricks Over Blocks! 20 updated levels, smoother gameplay, and more polish. Over 20K people have added it on Steam, crazy! Next week, we’re moving from free to paid as we keep building
