2022-10-18 14:54:22 +0000 UTCHey Greg! Question and a suggestion. Suggestion: For your car vlogs, I recommend either a windshield mount or an AC vent mount. The ones that stick to the dashboard consistently fall off for me (especially since I have a big phone). When I drove from Austin to LA, the windshield mount I bought didn't fall once! Question: We often hear your thoughts on fatherhood. I'd love to hear your thoughts on motherhood! What are your thoughts on seeing the love of your life transition from no baby to pregnancy to raising Ben? What have you learned from Genevieve? Do you see her in a different light? Love you, later

2022-10-17 20:19:29 +0000 UTCCongratulations on everything, Greg! Y’all have been apart of my life for so long, and seeing this studio was so incredible. Can’t wait for all the content and good times! Question for Monday’s Gregway. Fair warning, It’s a bit of a heavy topic. My wife’s grandfather is going to be going through chemotherapy and radiation. While obviously there’s no catch all solution, is there any advice on foods or drinks he could have, and what we should prepare for and can do to be as helpful and understanding while he goes through this process? He is essentially my wife’s father, and this is the first time someone close to us has gone through something on this level. I appreciate anything you can say that would be even a little bit helpful :)

2022-10-15 09:49:55 +0000 UTC(TLDR: Thanks. Seriously, no one read this, you have better uses for your time) Hi Greg. I know you won't read this because of being on stream (or stream adjacent) at the time of me writing this, this post's comments not being front of mind (with all that's going on, totally understandable), plus everyone is probably going to take the weekend to recoup from the craziness (and it being well earned rest too!), but I wanted to write something, somewhere and felt this was the best avenue because Twitter's character count is a bit frustrating for things like this, plus I feel REAL weird about DMs (regardless of if you have them open or not). So you probably won't have the time, and that's completely fine, but, quite uncharacteristically of me, I wanted to pen a note (I tend to write novels so I apologize for the length. Seriously, I am VERY sorry for me rambling here) expressing joy and gratitude for this day. It's currently 3:15 a.m. where I'm at as of this sentence and the gameplay of Madison is going on right now so I felt it an opportune time to say: Thanks. I congratulate all of Kinda Funny, and the family/friends who were able to show up today to make it a memorable time celebrating the monumental achievement that is the Spare Bedroom. There's so much potential and excitement I see and I can't wait to watch how you all will just crush all the content, from the podcasts and streams, to reaction content and special one-offs. Selfishly, I so desperately want KF to hit that $90K goal, because I don't think I would ever anticipate a piece of KF content more than that project. But for me, it's so much more than a 50,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art studio space. It's been 3 and a half years since I've seen any of my friends I've made through the community. And today's stream really hit hard that FOMO of wanting to be there, so to say I can't wait for the day the entire KF team is ready to open your doors to all of us is an understatement. I've built up so much leave time from work for the week you'll have us. There were stretches tonight/yesterday where I laughed so hard for so long and I can't remember how long its been since I've done that, and it's a stark reminder of what I've sorely missed. It was such an amazing feeling to see so many interact with one another, especially during the Bless Who segments and just chilling on stream talking about whatever. Seeing you talk about that in this Gregway really underscores how the Kinda Funny family is so interconnected, growing stronger by the day, and I'm still stunned how I found you all back in February 2016 (and those circumstances is a story for another day) would make one the most marked positive impacts in my life. I count myself extremely fortunate to have been a fan since that time, through the friendships I've made, and being able to support great people doing greater things. Thanks for that opportunity. I'm struck how emotional several things about KF's journey makes me. While I've been to KFL 3 week, I never been to another event, mostly due to financial and responsibility reasons, so I've not really met a majority of the team. I had a conversation with Kevin outside the venue talking about how Cool Greg being hired was my favorite part of the show, a couple chats with Joey at Wing Wings and Pier 39, got to hang with Cool Greg outside of Wing Wings the first night of the week, a brief meeting with Roger, Barrett, and Blessing (independently from each other and before all were employees), but beyond that, writing in occasionally for a podcast about a game I care for and consider myself immensely fortunate to have a submission taken (The Borderlands 3 bookclub with Fran is a personally highlight with the compliments from both of you. Thanks for that. Again. Three years later. Still matters to me.), and maybe two, MAYBE three Twitter conversations (read: Three total tweets combined between the two of us). And I don't expect a single soul to remember me. My name MIGHT ring an echo in the back of someone's mind, and that's me being generous, but the impact you make is indescribable. So again, I can't help but marvel at how much I celebrate your (all KF's) successes and hurt for your pain points. Seeing Tim not able to talk during his entrance to the Spare Bedroom. Your consistent willingness to ALWAYS make the choice of being as vulnerable as you are, especially in these vlogs. To laugh hysterically at all the shenanigans and quietly listen during the serious topics. All of this for 11 people (and the greater KF family of industry friends, part-time team, contractors and more) who I can say I never have had the privilege to sit down and get to know (and vice versa). And to be clear: I'm not asking nor expecting such a meeting in however many years' time. I am FULLY aware I'm just a single raindrop in the ocean of support, whose ripples are lost in constant tides of waves. A silent, socially awkward as all hell and shy, person who watches most of the content (haven't missed a single Games Daily), and is more than content to pledge here on Patreon with no further action because I believe, and have believed in the now (for me) 6 and 2/3 years I've been a fan (I'm kind of a little weirded out by being labeled as "Best Friend," but that's ANOTHER thing for ANOTHER time) of who all of you are as people. I know so many thousands and thousands upon thousands would want the opportunity to chat with all the KF team, and I'm good with never having a conversation with ya'll. Yet, as I said, uncharacteristically of me, I decided to write because, well, maybe because it's 3:50 now and I needed to release the emotional buildup I've had from today, or perhaps, in my own way, I wanted to act on what you preach from time to time in reaching out to creators to let them know I enjoy and appreciate what they do. And I do. Because you (KF), all who showed up on camera, those who couldn't make it, and so many more... I know you hear it CONSTANTLY, but what you do MATTERS. In so many ways, known and unknown. Thanks for introducing us to Ben. Thanks for sharing about Portillo. Thanks for championing for many people to connect and talk about the things we love. Thanks for you being you. It's 4:15 a.m. for me now. The Madison gameplay is done now, so going back to the stream now. Might mute it again because I'm not into Warzone and WOW it's a loopy. The absolutely loveable garbage truck on fire loopy. They just said most are knocked out right with some last few stragglers right now, so it'll probably be at its slowest for a bit more. Thanks for reading to ANYONE who has. Thanks for not getting sick of me typing the word thanks an unhealthy amount of time. Have a great day.
