Recommendations of Older Videos for Someone (Relatively) New to the Channel?

I’m fairly late to the Games Grump train. I first saw a clip of the famous “Bankruptcy” Wheel of Fortune episode about 2 years ago and have been a fan since then. I’ve seen most of their uploads from the past few years, but have caught a few of their compilations of older series (“No Way Out”, Heart of Darkness”) and realized I missed out on some great stuff.

I tried looking for general “best of” lists given their huge amount of content but it just seems a lot of their fans have different preferences than me. So I was hoping some people could recommend some episodes / series from their back catalog with the following characteristics:

Examples of What I like on their channel:
- PlayStation 1 and newer games
- Resident Evil play throughs
- Games so bad they’re good (to watch) - the Shield, Bad Boys
- FMV and CDI games - Harvester, MadDog McCree
- VR games
- Games where Arin goes nuts, especially GameGrumps VS.
- Bad Sonic games
- Next Top Model

Examples of What Aren’t My Favorites:
- Japanese dating sim games
- Steam-type Simulation games like Waterpark Simulator
- point and click Games that are really good but are play for nostalgia by Dan (Kings Quest series)
- Old school Nintendo or SNES games played because of their quality and not because of their terribleness.

Thanks all in advance for the recs!

Recs for Donating Photography Equipment?

Over the past few decades my photography hobby has gotten the best of me and I’m now trying to simplify and clear my new house of unused toys that I for some unknown reason took on my move to Columbus.

I have a bunch of old DSLR bodies and lenses that I’d like to donate — they’re all beginner equipment and old enough to not really be worth anything for trade in (eg. Nikon DX40, D3500), but they still work fine.

I was thinking of a school but any school with a photography class likely has better / newer equipment than this.

I’d prefer to make them available to someone picking up the hobby that can’t afford one or who will actually make use of it before donating to a Goodwill for resale, but since I’m relatively new, I wasn’t sure if anything like that is around here. But any suggestions or charities (other than Facebook Marketplace) would be appreciated. Thanks!

Help Recovering Account - Speaking with Actual Human at Reddit?

About two weeks ago I tried logging into my primary account on Reddit on the app and it came up with Snoo facedown and stating “we’re experiencing difficulty logging you in”. Thought it was a Reddit issue until I tried the next day, got the same message, and when I tried to login / recover password it told me “Account with that username does not exist”

Opened up a case with Reddit through their help page and got an auto generated email “While we review your case, please reply with one of the following phrases to help us better understand your issue”. However this was over a week ago, and still no response. And there also doesn’t seem to be an email or phone number to follow up or speak with a person about this, so wanted to see if anyone had any success getting in direct contact with their support team.

I did a username search online and it came back that my old name was now available so I feel I may be SOL. And to be honest nothing of real value was lost, just 10 years of my old posts, my favorited subs and enough karma to post on some of them. But since I’m an infrequent poster I’m just surprised as to how this happened as I hadn’t posted in a while. And the night before this started I even got an email to that username with the posts of the day I might be interested in.
