Remember this intro? 😝 15 yrs of content creation, wow. Definitely reflecting thanks to this fun viewer made remix. Some of you are long time followers and were with me through my tech reviews of the 2009 Droid Eris (haha). To my Linux reviews, then gaming videos that turned into gaming live streams.

My tech side evolved into information security videos, my personal side kicked off @geeksabroad and now we're so happy to be really achieving geeking for social good with my nonprofit @geekbeacon and our conferences @geekbeaconfest
💜💜💜
I couldn't have done any of this without you! Thanks for the wild ride, and following me wherever this grand adventure takes us 🤓 by @geekbeacon

What games still hold up today? 👇 Grim Fandango is a cult classic adventure game by LucasArts in 1998! It takes place in the afterlife, where you play as Manny Calavera, a travel agent who must help souls on their journey to the Land of the Dead. The game's humor is a blend of 1930s' film noir and Mexican folklore, which creates a unique and hilarious setting.

"My sythe, I like to keep it where my heart used to be."
Witty dialogue, colorful characters, and inventive puzzles make it a must-play for any fan of the point and click genre. It's a game that, despite its dark subject matter, will make you laugh out loud in a way that only quirky, beloved adventures can.

I've been waiting for a sequel forever, haha!

What's your biggest medical bill? 🏥 I've had $150,000 of medical debt. Not sponsored at all, but I wish I knew about @dollarfor because I struggled so much on my own without it. It's a charity program free for the patient that helps you to erase medical debt and we featured this talk at @geekbeaconfest 2023.

Jared Walker is a force to be reckoned with when it comes to advocating for patients burdened by medical debt. Having experienced medical debt in his family, he founded @dollarfor with the goal of helping others in similar situations. His talk sheds light on the often-overlooked provisions of the Affordable Care Act that require nonprofit hospitals to offer financial assistance programs for low-to-middle income patients, known as Charity Care.

Through his tireless efforts, Jared has secured reimbursements for countless families struggling to pay medical bills. Prepare to be inspired as Jared shares his passion for making Charity Care known, easy, and fair.

GeekBeacon Fest 2023 is this Saturday! This is just an idea of what you can expect from the show. This was from GBF 2022, when Geoff Shearer of @proofofgooddao discussed Spoon Theory; a metaphor that is used to describe the amount of mental or physical energy a person has available for daily activities and tasks.
