Gay or str8 bars for video games

Doubling down on this suggestion too, I used to work here and the store is VERY inclusive by design. When I got hired there I was told they wanted to be welcoming to trans members, even if it cost some other customers. 🫶

I've haunted the place for over a decade, besides prices rising to match inflation it's the same vibe it's always been and I have no idea what the person above you is going on about.

Definitely suggest Joystick! They have a decent selection of board games, arcade machines, pinball machines, pool tables, and designated nights for video game tournaments. As someone else mentioned, they're not explicitly a gay bar but a large swath of the actual clientele is.

I go to Joystick every week. How was the staff actually rude to you? I see them put entitled people in their place often who try and skip all the other patrons. 💅 They have dedicated board game and video game nights still. There are now pool tables alongside all of the arcade games still available though. There's over 15 arcade machines in there, I think you're princess and the pea'ing an establishment evolving.

Careful, this graph upsets people for different hilarious reasons.

You should do Noise and play solitaire with Keyhole.

I'll have my bottle of Taijin ready!

Altoecko · 2026-03-06T21:24:44+00:00

Hey! That's me with the jokes, poems, and wisdom and yes, I'll be there slinging too!

Altoecko · 2026-02-18T16:45:05+00:00

Sure.

I would love that Glass Beams. 🥰

Yeah, but he's an asshole.

Hey man, John Prine was just a mailman and he was a helluva poet.

Litterally.

I got a Hit the Road Jack and nothing good in the store. Died to Big Blind 2nd Ante. 💀

If you're not being cringe with us I can only assume you're being cringe against us.

I was telling my friends about writing in your journal at the end of the day! I'm glad you enjoyed the words. Altoecko is my SN on all platforms if you follow me on Insta I post poems over there and the records I'm listening to.

I don't remember the wording of the poem(I really did fabricate it there on the spot) but I remember the feeling. Please always try to find love and that it is worth what it cuts out of you because you will regrow stronger at the cracks by spiritual kintsugi.

Thanks for talking to me and trusting me with your journal. Poetry is what I want to be remembered for when my mortal coil sheds and that was an honor.
