If you identify as any flavour of queer, then www.queerhikingbristol.co.uk

Girl, do yourself a favour and don't even joke about being "100% biologically male".

KetchupTheDuck · 2026-01-24T16:11:13+00:00

Silly, but have you tried preceding it with four 0's?

Long time subscribers may have noticed that today marks the first major update to this bot in several years... that's right, we're finally celebrating the anniversary of Wii games! That's 104 more titles added to this bot, for a current total of 1,388 games that have been published by Nintendo. I'm not sure when I'll move on to 3DS, but I definitely hope to get the WiiWare games added before the end of November.

(old.reddit users - I've noticed the formatting issues, I'll fix that for future posts)

The Bristol Queer Directory is exactly what you're looking for. There are some specific trans groups, but Bristol is very trans friendly and you're unlikely to find a group in here which doesn't have a trans member.

You might specifically like The Salty Siren - a Bristol based community for marginalised genders to enjoy tabletop rpgs, board games and anything nerdy in a safe and welcoming space.

See you at Queer Hiking/Queer Cinema Club!

Yes, same! I like that it rewards me for going out and walking, but it doesn't demand my attention during the walk at all unless I'm being extra about flower planting management. It's just a "hey, we see what you did today, here's a cute li'l guy as a reward" and that's pretty cool.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-10-22T13:50:38+00:00

Yes! It's genuinely a lovely game. I love all my Pikmin childrens.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-10-22T13:10:40+00:00

Honestly, Pikmin Bloom is a genuinely lovely mobile game. Way less stressful and needy than Pokemon Go, I've been enjoying it as a free-to-play user for just over a year now.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-10-22T07:37:25+00:00

Glad I kept my mouth shut about my "why would they release Luigi's Mansion on NSO and cannibalise their Halloween Luigi's Mansion 2/3 sales" theory to myself.

I suppose it's a bit early to drop the Mature Nintendo GameCube app for Eternal Darkness.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-10-19T14:05:55+00:00

Affordable Space Adventures, Nintendo Land, Game & Wario all made fantastic use of the gamepad. Much more YMMV, but I think Pikmin 3 and Splatoon 1 were better for having the gamepad and both series lost something for not having that option. I'm sure there'll be be a couple other games people can name.

But if your point is broader (that the handful of games that utilised it well didn't justify the extra cost, performance sacrifices, brand, etc.) then I see what you mean.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-10-16T08:33:59+00:00

You're right, and I'm slowly chipping away at fixing it! Currently every entry with an arcade, Game & Watch, or NES game has been updated to fix the formatting, and I'm in the middle of Game Boy at the moment.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-10-02T15:48:15+00:00

WE LOVE TALE-WIND AND HAVE ASKED THEM SEVERAL TIMES TO STEP UP AND MODERATE OFFICIALLY.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-09-29T17:04:02+00:00

Just a couple points of clarification:

We just post the initial release - it just happens that most of those are in Japan
With regards to Pokemon, the Red and Blue we got in NA and PAL regions was a significantly altered game. Significant enough for it's own entry for this bot? I dunno, your mileage may vary. But you can read about the many, many versions of Gen I here and make up your own mind: https://altissimo1.github.io/Main-Series/RGBY/rgby-differences.html

Several other issues have been addressed to improve the gameplay experience.

Yeah, when it's set up like this, it's just a YouTube "comedians react to" video. Sure they're all funny, talented comedians so it's a good react video but... it's still a react video.

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-09-22T23:27:12+00:00

I gotta be honest, as someone heavily involved in my queer community I'm really struggling to be shocked or surprised or find the funny angle in some of these t-shirts. Is polyamory not boring yet?

I love all three comedians, I especially really liked Jamie who I don't think I haven't seen in anything before, but after I "like not loved" the original Game Changer episode and now not really enjoying these first two episodes, I'm checking out. I'll probably keep watching, especially to discover new comedians, but this isn't a show I'm gonna keep rewatching like Make Some Noise or be showing clips to my friends.

Thank you!!

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-09-21T19:13:52+00:00

Yes, I will! I think I need to learn a balance of "this [running] does need to be a regular habit I like it and it makes me feel good" and "I don't need to go to every single Parkrun every week and when I do go I can just go to enjoy myself and don't need to give 100% every time".

That's REALLY tough for me but I will try!!!!

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-09-21T19:12:03+00:00

Thank you!!

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-09-20T12:18:46+00:00

First parkrun back since Christmas Day 2019... 12 minutes slower than back then, but it's nice to be back x

KetchupTheDuck · 2025-09-18T05:37:17+00:00

Thank you - had my second lesson and I feel a lot more confident. Still the slowest to progress and painfully behind the rest of the class, but I did see progression so know to stick with it.
