A corded phone?!

Truly horrifying.

Edited for page topper: Glad to hear the Night in the Woods video is coming along.

Now if only he would start working on that Sonic 3 video... and Knuckles...

So apparently Harris is streaming himself playing Donkey Kong to 101% completion, in order to raise funds for Mermaids, a charity that helps trans people. So far, he's been streaming for 24 hours and has raised about $50k, which is pretty dope.

[up]Those kind of streams always make me uneasy considering some guy died on cam while trying to do one before.

Props to him for doing it a good cause despite the possible risks.

[up]If it helps any, he went to sleep a couple of hours ago, so hopefully he won't die from exhaustion.

He's currently at almost $65 K. It's nuts.

Not gonna lie, seeing Harris nearly break into happy tears upon realizing that he helped raise over $75,000 really got to me. Got a little choked up myself.

Our boy has passed $100,000! And he's at $134,809 at the time of writing. #Thanks Graham, you goddamn piece of shit. Hope you enjoy your thank you card (it's one of the donation goals, in case anyone wondering)

We're at over 160,000 now! Pretty much everyone, from Contra and Shaun to the former CA crew like Linkara, Lindsay, and Todd to bigger names like Jim Sterling, Olive of Rae the Doe fame, and Chelsea Manning (yes, that one), as well as numerous others such as Casey Explosion, have been on the stream at some point or another.

Forget Infinity War, this is the biggest crossover event of all time.

The game is over, at over USA$300,000 and many, many, many, MANY guest stars. I'm astounded, and really really happy. Like, wow...

He's beaten the game, with 101%, and eaten a block of tofu raw like he promised.

As I type this, he's raised over $338K, meaning he's raised over a third of a million dollars.

If that still somehow isn't impressive enough for you, just look at how many unbelievable guests he's had on stream, all completely unplanned. It includes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Chuck Tingle, John Romero (the creator of Doom, which codified FPS games), Grant Kirkhope (who said "Trans rights! Okay!" in Donkey Kong's voice from DK 64), and the Chapo Trap House guys.

People are saying history was made today. I don't think they're exaggerating.

After the conclusion of the stream I was curious if the page for Hbomberguy had been updated, and it led me here.

I'm very probably trans, something I realized since I last posted on TV Tropes a number of years ago, and the stream meant a lot to me. The moment when AOC called in to voice her support is something I'll want to tell my grandchildren about

[up][up]Wait Cortez herself and the original Doom Creator popped up in this stream?

Damn I was not expecting all of those guests.

#242: Jan 21st 2019 at 2:14:27 AM

[up]Yup. It's unbelievable and incredible. I can't get the words to describe how amazing this stream was.

And DK is forever a trans ally.

Man, now I feel stupid for missing out on it. I was thinking "I probably shouldn't encourage people putting their own health on the line for views" and didn't tune in.

Now it turned out to be an amazing event with lots of wonderful people checking in.

Well, good for Hbomberguy and transpeople. I hope the money will help many.

Hbomberguy played all day, but he did take the time to sleep during the stream specifically to avoid risking his health too much. So he knew that that factor is why some concerned people wouldn't tune in.

Oooooh, I completely missed that detail. Yeah, okay, I messed up, then.

I sincerely hope he or other people manage to clip the other guests' segments on the stream. All of them were fantastic, and the lesser known ones would do well to get the extra exposure!

Furthermore, I'm bitter that Now This has neglected to name the other people on call in their coverage of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's appearance on stream. They also neglected to mention that the charity stream was for Mermaids, instead calling it a "digital strategy".

Casey deserves better. AOC is fantastic and no one is denying that but everyone else should be highlighted too.

What I love about AOC's appearance is how...casual and approachable she was? She just showed up and was very genial, like it was no big deal.

She comes across to me as a normal everyday person. Always had. I like her way more than other politicians we currently have as most would not do something like this and are very detached from everyday people's lives.

What are talking about? AOC is a crazy idiot commie who wants to turn the US ino Venezuela somehow.

Seriously though, why does she trigger people so much?

Apathy is Death. Worse than Death, because at least a rotting corpse feeds beasts and insects.
