Hey everyone! We have a super important announcement - it's once again time for our annual 24-hour charity stream!! This year we'll be streaming to benefit MaineTransNet! MaineTransNet is a community based organization led by transgender people, for transgender people. They serve Maine's trans community in a ton of different ways, including support groups, transgender competency training, and advocacy work. We're so excited to support them with this year's stream!

Oh and just like last year, we'll be donating our Patreon contributions for February. Come hang out, keep us awake, and check out all the shenanigans. We hope to see you there!!

Motion - is it more than just waggling a controller around? In this episode we seek to explore all aspects of this much-maligned game mechanic (and also discuss our struggles with motion sickness).

In this episode - Giovanni mourns the death of motion based party games. David has to have a little lie down. Tess discusses why your body does not want to be an interface. Greg tries to learn a new joke.
