To All My Friends

To All My Friends

I doubt ever see this, but if reading this and used to work at the IGA in small Albertan town back in the day, and shared Atmosphere with an overly defensive young man...who may have not have really responded to Atmosphere at first, umm...yeah. You changed my life. Still an integral part of my playlist today.

Thanks. And sorry to any mods if this is out the blue etc. Just had the thought while listening, and yeah, figured in some way try to thank that guy for introducing me to one of my favourite artists, ever.

Umm, guess for sake of the reddit, please feel free to share any stories, or discuss what this song means to you too. Peace.

Monday Night Marathon - August 31st, 2026 - Fall Lows Incoming!

It's time for your late-night Monday Marathon update.

This past weekend was largely uneventful, with us seeing the last of the Firestorm gun showers pass us by on Saturday and Sunday, abruptly ending earlier today than we had in the forecast. Barely anyone even noticed it did, though, so nothing was called off, and no one’s plans changed in the slightest.

Player counts “held steady” for the most part from Saturday into today, with our well-known Marathon Retention(™). Shaving only a few hundred blast-havers off the totals over the weekend, 3.6k down to “only” 3.2k peaks, lows staying above the 1k mark for the last days of summer too.

Blast-havers overall do seem to have fallen, though, as the brief spike in DAU we observed has now risen to a lofty #435 (sitting comfortably alongside Mortal Kombat 11 and DRAGON BALL GEKISHIN SQUADRA, and impressively beating out STAR WARS™ Battlefront™ II), with a top sellers rank in the high #720s, and the wishlist with a scorching #2422.

It’s not all high numbers in the forecast, though, this evening, as we are expecting the review score to drop into the lower 75%'s, having seen it trend down to below even 76% positive last week, alongside a gradual drop in blast-havers overall as we enter the cooler Fall days now.

As for the forecast this week, we’re expecting the CCU’s to stay above 3k until around Wednesday, with a gradual drop down to the high 2000s by Friday. Overnight lows expected to hit below 1k by Wednesday as well so make sure to get the last of your summer plants harvested or indoors before then!

That’s all we have for you tonight, we’ll have more next week on how the first weekend of September fairs for our fair Marabarf.

Stay Blastin'!

Some Words of Encouragement/A Plea for Hatred

I've noticed lately there seems to be a softening, or mellowing out in our ranks towards the enemy. This comes at a time when we are so close to winning, and realizing our ultimate victory upon the glazing maracucks.

Soon, very soon that day will be ours, and while this has been a campaign of nothing but massive, brutal, morale-and-soul crushing wins on our part, it is not over yet, and now is not the time to let their silvered tongues worm their way into our minds, to broker some kind of coward's cease fire while they run themselves tired to the earth each and every engagement against our unrelenting might and collective brilliance.

Now is the time to dig deep into your hatred, deeper yet than you may have ever before, the time to let your vitriol run rampant and flow forth in an unending tide to finally break their resolve.

If we let our guard down now, next thing we know those thrice-damned, blast-having glazers will have manufactured a falsely "wholesome" win by December with their usual tactics of manipulating others via slander, and lies. We must be vigilant, we must continue our campaign with nothing but the utmost level of diligence to preach the truth to shield the innocent from their cringe, and corruption.

May your hate of garbagethon shield you.
o7 fellow haters.

PS. If you truly struggle to hate anymore...just think about all that bungie did at Reach to humanity, all that they have done wrong to you, to your family, to your children and your children's children, to your dog, hamster and hamster's wife's bf...never forget, never forgive.
