Huge thanks to everyone who donated and hung out in the stream yesterday! We smashed our goal by over a thousand dollars, setting a new fundraising record and putting us over $50,000 raised for Lurie Children’s Hospital in our 11 years. ♥️

Just over half way through the marathon and we're just $350 away from our goal! Thanks to everyone who donated and hung out with us today so far! https://peruvianidol.live

Bert and I are kicking off 24-hours of video games to raise money for Lurie Children's Hospital. We're just $1,200 away from our goal! Come support us on Twitch! https://www.extra-life.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donordrive.participant&participantID=536937

Issue #8 of my monthly newsletter, Peruvian Idle, is out! This month I nearly tripled the amount of movies I watched compared to September and there were some doozies. https://peruvianidle.mikeaparicio.com/8/

Today marks 10 years since my daughter, Olivia, passed away. I shared some thoughts about it and details about my 11th Extra Life this Saturday. We're close to raising an all-time total of $50,000 raised for Lurie Children's Hospital in Olivia's honor. I hope you can help us reach our goal. https://www.mikeaparicio.com/posts/2024-10-31-halloween/

Wow, the Bears lost in the most Bears way possible.

@brad_frost I love that my laptop is in this picture. 😂

@zachleat I just used them as an opportunity to make commercials. Even the shittiest to-do app would win a prize because no one else made a video. 😂 https://vimeo.com/134432234

@mrtrimble just wait. Haha

I can't believe it's 2024 and I have to use an antenna to watch the Chicago Bulls on their new Chicago Sports Network, like it's 1998.

@philhawksworth Congrats, Phil! 🍻

@mrtrimble I did it yesterday and feel like a truck hit me. Good luck!

@jaime Probably XCOM 2. Such a deep strategy game with a cool aesthetic.
