I am having a terrible Atari Day, and not just because I don't have my systems. All day, my mom has been screaming at me for various things. She says I have no friends, she says I won't be successful in life, she says I'm a weirdo loser, she says I'm a lazy person with no goals or dreams in life, and various other hurtful things. She's been screaming at me almost non-stop for 5 hours. I have a splitting headache. Today's Saturday which means my dad isn't home for most of the day as he has to go work at the farmers' market. So I'm stuck with her. What's worse is that she's taking off on Monday.
I just wish there was some way out. I hate having to be around her.

After nearly a decade, Nintendo has finally officially discontinued the 3DS.

"Goodnight, Sweet Prince..."

The most blessed news I've heard in some time:

Level 1 reduced to Level Zero

Updated Scoreboard! Games now in alphabetical order & categorized by system! Much easier to find!

Sorry to be a downer, but out here in Oregon, things are very bleak.  Fires throughout the state are devastating lives and homes and entire communities.  As I type this, the sky outside our home is an eerie orange.  Fires loom only miles away.  It's windy and dry and hot.  I'm terrified.  We are packing bags tonight in case the call comes to evacuate.  I've lived here my whole life, and never experienced anything like this.  Take care of yourselves, everybody.   

Jet boat tour in Portland.  A nice way to end the holiday.  Visibility was terrible due to forest fires nearby,  Thank you global warming. 

This new Activision Patch thing we're doing over in the 2600 forums is great. Unfortunately, I wasn't around when the patches were, but these virtual ones are a good alternative. This and our Galaxian squad challenge will consume my long weekend. 

I won the day on August 28? How did that happen? Guess I talk too much 🥳 In fact, I talked so much on September 4 that the board has clamped down on me, and I can't post any more today 😜🤐 Good news is I'm only 3 hours and 12 minutes away from September 5 when I'm free to talk away!
