Watch Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3. Can anybody hear me? from Lardmonster on www.twitch.tv

If you haven’t heard of Twitch, it’s a huge place where people play games and other people watch people play games. In fact, it has expanded far beyond that and you can watch people do all sorts of things. Maybe you want to learn how to cross stitch or about 3D printing?

Twitch (and other streaming platforms) are more than this. They are also places where people can connect, we can listen to regular voices in the background while we do things, and communities form. For some people, probably even more so in times like these, they’re a reliable form of social contact.

I thought I’d try to stream on Twitch a little regularly for some of these reasons. We can talk about stuff, or we can just play through some games. Whatevs.

This is me – Lardmonster on Twitch.

Shutdown

Like everyone else, we’re at home, indoors, for 23 out of 24 hours a day. But we can still run from home, cycle from home, and strength train at home to try to stay healthy, mentally and physically.

So what’s going on? What else can we do at home?
