While looking back at some of the runs, I realized that Internet Overdose seemed out of date.
First of all, I knew I could do the glitch to get Darkness 2 faster. The quicker I can get the 120 stress cap, the better.
Next, I started to wonder why I was doing so many streams before, especially since I technically just need to reach Darkness 1. And I still need 80/120 on Day 25, so that would need to be figured out.
After all of that, I just had the conclusion that the best outcome would be spamming Sleep To Tomorrow, and then getting to 80 stress optimally.
This run can still technically be faster, by playing on an old version of the game, but I can't be bothered to do so. Maybe some other time. It'd be a very easy way to get a sub 8.

![DreadOut 1 | Any% True Ending Speedrun [1:00:51]
Im trying to get decent at DreadOut 1, and I plan to de-rust DreadOut 2. When DreadOut 3 releases, Im hoping I can do DreadOut Trilogy speederuns. Those will likely be an endurance run, but Id rather get good at doing longer runs. I used to speedrun GTA 5 and TLOU, and now I cant stand simpler runs lmao
This is also the first video Im uploading that is entirely on Linux. Played, recorded, edited, and uploaded all on Linux. Im trying my best to switch over and remove Windows entirely. (I use Arch, btw)
Since I cant seem to properly use Livesplit (crashes with Wine, and doesnt open with Proton), I very recently found a Livesplit alternative called OpenSpeedRun. Since I use Wayland (X11 is extremely buggy for me), I cant get global hotkeys to work, but this alternative has a cli version, which allows me to use terminal command shortcuts, which is basically the same thing, and connects to the GUI version that is on-screen. I am still getting used to the shortcuts, so I accidentally reset my splits after Act 0.
Either way, OpenSpeedRun is one of the best timers Ive used on Linux. It definitely needs more time to be improved, but its a project I believe in, and Id be very willing to financially help out the devs a little bit, if I could ever get in touch.
To talk about the run:
Because of this forum post (https://www.speedrun.com/dreadout/forums/f2ji6), I figured out that I could basically have infinite stamina if I precisely time when I press and release the sprint key. This means walking is almost nonexistent, if done properly.
I still suck at doing literally everything else, but I might get better soon. DreadOut 1 | Any% True Ending Speedrun [1:00:51]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/jQDHbWZUx8A/mqdefault.jpg)

![NEEDY GIRL OVERDOSE: Endless Nightmare Blue Screen Edition | Any% Speedrun [28:55]
Fairly proud of this run! I didnt make any major mistakes, so thats good!
Though, I am playing on a slightly previous version for this run (newest one that I was given before official release). Theres no major differences. Its mostly just some visual changes, so its probably fine to just upload this.

![Needy Streamer Overload TAS | Internet Runaway Angel: Be Invoked [6:10.06]
For those who may not know what a TAS is, T.A.S. (Tool Assisted Speedrun/Superplay) is the process of doing a speedrun, while using tools to manipulate many factors of a game, in order to create a theoretical perfect speedrun.
The term tools can often refer to many aspects, such as using mods that manipulate luck factors, speed, savestates, or fully custom tools that give you internal information.
More specifically to this video, this run uses an auto player mod made by the NSO modder, Frostworth.
This auto player basically runs off of code that attempts to do every action as soon as it is capable of doing so, making for the most optimal time for everything.
For more information on TASes, most people like to refer to Bismuths video on explaining TASes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ietk1-Wb7oY
All tools used were made by Frostworth. Please check out all of their awesome NSO mods!

![DreadOut 2 | Act 7 Speedrun [9:19.95]
The last Act done!
Im mostly really happy with where Im at here. Like basically every other Act, this one had quite a few flaws, mostly getting hit by the exploding things. Boss 1 also sucked a little bit, but I got the job done. I also didnt skip the skippable cutscene in my last pb, so I automatically saved 36ish seconds.
Siska backed away from me more than I wouldve liked for her to, and it also sucks that her explosion hit me, but Im not going to get too upset over it.
I also dont know why, but it feels like it took a long time to load the final room. Is that just me?
Idk, its still fine.
(Btw, sorry for the end being muted. Copyright sucks....)

This beats my previous pb by over a minute: https://youtu.be/vl_ozfZGhy4

![#pokespeedrun Glitched PB [6:38] (W/ Input Display)
Im planning on making a tutorial for people to learn how to speedrun the glitched category of this short game. I decided to get a PB while I was at it lol. Im probably going to stop improving it from here, unless I find a reason to keep pushing it.
Im hoping to inspire people to at the very least push for sub 7, because it SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO easy, once you get all the movement down.
I dont see any reason to make a glitchless tutorial, since its all basically just good movement from start to finish with very little amounts of change.
The only real improvements you can make is jumping on Oak with good angles, good turnarounds, and no bonks. Other than that, its just sharp turns, and timing the jump at the pool correctly. #pokespeedrun Glitched PB [6:38] (W/ Input Display)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/lWNZWSricxY/mqdefault.jpg)

![Needy Streamer Overload | Nerdy Girl Overload Speedrun WR [7:20.30]
Literally nobody plays this category, so it has only been played by inexperienced players up until now. No disrespect to the other runners or anything, but they just dont have the same level of skill compared to runners who have spent months learning all of the intricate details, and thats fine.
Anyways, I beat the previous WR by over 4 minutes, while mostly freestyling.
And the previous WR beat the record before it by like 6 minutes. So that should say a lot about this category.

![Every DNA Tru Lyricist Self Reference in 2025
From this point onward, DNA no longer exists to me.
Discussing the rules in greater detail:
When DNA Tru Lyricist says “DNA”, “Tru”, “Lyricist” David Phelps, or any word similar (e.g. true, truth, lyrics, lyricism, lyrical, etc), then this will result in adding 1 point to DNA referencing himself.
He technically does mention a lot of other things, such as his albums (best examples being Ripgut(ology), Warlock, and 1 Deep), other personal things in his life, along with VERY frequently mentioning a lot of movies such as Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Cujo, Candy Man, and others. AND he also likes to talk about ripping out organs, killing with specific weapons, killing specific living things, having (forced) sexual relations with his audience (of mostly minors) (and also with the listeners significant others).
Despite all of these things that would make this video likely triple or quadruple in length, I decided to stick to ONLY moments where he says his own name or words closely related to his name.
If a featured artist says any of the words, it will not count as a point, because DNA does not have control over this.
If DNA adds an audio clip with any of the words (including adlibs or random voice clips), this WILL count as a point, because DNA DOES have control over this.
How points are decided (gaining points is bad, btw):
In my half of 2023 video, I counted every individual word as a point (https://youtu.be/leA4Zt_HxCY).
This year, Im only counting each INSTANCE as a point.
For example: If DNA says DNA Tru Lyricist, that wouldve been 3 points in 2023. This year, its only 1 point (mostly for the sake of my own convenience).
Though, depending on what he says and how he says it, I may count it as more than 1. So dont feel confused if you see the counter go up by 2 or more.
Notes:
- I skip a large amount of Random Wreckage and Metaphysics, since a lot of it was cringe. I assume I may have missed some references to himself, but I just cant deal with it.
- The only individual video released that doesnt have a self reference is I See You Freestyle.
Extra details:
- This video only covers YouTube VIDEOS. So I wont count anything he uploads outside of YouTube. This also excludes DistroKid uploads (which usually dont appear well on YouTube). YouTube Shorts or livestreams are also excluded.
With this detail alone, its safe to assume DNA wouldve likely hit 700-800+.
- All videos after June may be out of chronological order, as the methods I was previously using stopped working properly. All videos are still within their correct months. 1 or 2 may not be correct, as some were hard to check (since DNA took down a good number of videos shown). I also stopped receiving notifications after September, so its possible that he deleted songs.
So why am I doing this?
I used to be a huge fan of DNA in middle school and high school. To this day, I still think he isnt really all that bad. He has a pretty decent vocal range, he has many flows, pretty nice speed control, and Id say his overall skill level is at least a solid 6-8/10 (if each song was put in a vacuum).
The problem is when you see his entire discography, and realize he hasnt actually done all that much, especially in the later years.
Most of his music can be summed up to: DNA Tru Lyricist, tru ripsta, [insert horror movie], David Phelps/King David, [insert album name], ripping your organs out, sexual assault, 2 daughters, best ever in history forever, idgaf, and making disses on anyone who so much as calls him mid.
So DNA, if you happen to read any of this, please dont be afraid to branch out into new ideas. It might make uploading a little bit slower, and it might be a little bit harder to think about what to write, but I promise its worth it.
And credit producers! All you need to do is type (prod. [insert producer name]). I bet you wouldnt like it if people didnt credit you, so treat others how you would like to be treated. Thats a concept that is taught to literal pre-schoolers and Kindergartners.
ALL footage used IS fair use and respects all of YouTubes four factors. https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/9783148?hl=en#zippy=
The work is transformative, and adds new expression and meaning to DNAs music.
All material is factual, and based in reality.
Only necessary amounts of footage is used.
And is a demonstration for criticism, as an attempt to improve the future of the artist.
Any attempt to take down this video will be considered abuse of YouTubes tools and is against TOS, and attempting to falsely copyright strike my video is against the law. Every DNA Tru Lyricist Self Reference in 2025](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/m1sk-sEmUqs/mqdefault.jpg)
