Hola Goofenbachers,
No new articles this week, though if you’re looking — you should help Pinball Pete’s in Ann Arbor not close down. Why? They’re dope and about to be torn down for more boring-ass mixed use apartments. You know the ones, they look the same every city you go to and NONE OF THEM HAVE PINBALL INSIDE. That’s a crime.

In personal news, this year has been near impossible for me as a writer/editor/photographer for Nudge. It’s not cuz of y’all, but I felt totally defeated, I was sick like 6 out of the last 8 months, and I always had a headache.
The good news? I got a diagnosis, I’m a type 2 diabetic. While that’s sort of a shitty thing to hear from medical staff, it’s also kind of a relief. My blood sugar was dangerously high which was basically giving me illnesses left and right. That made me tired and it made doing Nudge a CHORE.
While it’s gonna be intense, I’m excited to get back to the basics and cover pinball with the same rock n’ roll attitude that we’ve been giving these last 2+ years. Thanks so much y’all.
Oh and please don’t forget to buy Nudge 3 for all your relatives so I can afford to pay Bmoen to continue his amazing work. Even if he doesn’t have diabetes like me, he still deserves nice things.
Next week? Well, I’ll be more alive than I have the last year. It’s prob about to get weird.
