🎬THIS WEEK📽️
Added 2024-12-30 06:13:31 +0000 UTCHappy holidays! As promised, I'm adding another show from the poll to the roster this week: Derry Girls. After a week of doing multiple episodes per day, I think we got this. Adding 2 new shows did not necessarily slow down the pace of the shows we were currently watching. I love it when a plan comes together. Thank you all for your continuous support. And Aloha to all the new patrons💐 I hope ya'll walk into the new year feeling like your best selves 💟

Weekly question: Have you ever had a mentor, and how did they impact your life/career?
- I once had a painting Professor who I looked up to, tell me she also had bad days in the studio. She told me that sometimes she feels insufficient and it makes her not apply for some art shows. My jaw was on the floor, I couldn't believe it. she is one of my favorite artists of all time and her portraits greatly inspired how mine look today. I think that conversation at that coffee shop and her vulnerability made me realize I wasn't doing so bad and if someone like her can make mistakes and not feel confident sometimes, and still produce great work, I could do it too. I think that realization progressed my growth by decades tbh. It's something I always endeavor to pass on to my painting students as much as I can. That shit changed my whole life.
Many thanks my friends. Happy New Year💛

2025-01-02 08:07:28 +0000 UTCoh laura. Seeing your comments on my YouTube videos was always amazing. months and months before you even became a patron. I mean I've told you before, I don't think I have any friend that has the live experience you have and all you shared with me and others in this community have been priceless. Honestly when it comes to the money, what you're giving may not seem like a lot, but remember there are almost 600 of you here on Patreon. The coin adds up. But that's only financial. What you offer me and this community is worth more than money. glad our paths crossed

2025-01-02 03:00:58 +0000 UTCWow. I'm glad you shared this with us. I totally understand you feeling conflicted about this and how it might be of betrayal. He might not have intended to do all that but that doesn't change the effects it had. Good people do shitty things sometimes. And it's also your right to cut them off. But I think that gut feeling is important, and not wanting to have a friendship with him not is totally justified.

2024-12-31 22:12:53 +0000 UTCI'm absolutely loving the multiple episodes at a time. I appreciate the extra time sacrifice for it. :D I hope you're well and had a great holiday, Franklin.

2024-12-30 21:34:05 +0000 UTCI’m so sorry that what sounds like a beneficial relationship was tainted by inappropriate flirty shit. It’s hard because flirting CAN be fun and harmless when you’re on a level playing field and both just playing around. Lots of people take it too far, however, and don’t adjust for the fact that they’re in a position of power, and it can become coercive and gross really easily. It sounds like he was a genuine friend and a good mentor, and you can look back on that time as positive. I don’t blame you for wondering about his past motives and distrusting him now. Both things can be true, he may not have meant anything by it but that doesn’t mean you have to grant him the benefit of the doubt now.

2024-12-30 19:08:28 +0000 UTCI had a wonderful work mentor when I was beginning my career. Looking back, though, from the perspective of decades, I have sadly realized that many of our interactions were inappropriate and might be considered predatory on his part in today’s climate. It’s not that I ever felt that he would force things; more than I was embarrassed (if initially flattered) by the flirtation and discussions of sex that somehow worked their way into closed-door work conversations. He was older, happily married (yep) and could easily transition from a story about his loving marriage to one about a recent work affair. I feel conflicted about this, Frank. He was a kind and generous person, gave me confidence about my work, and was in most ways a really nice person. So it feels somehow disloyal to even be typing this. Yikes. All of that must have been pent-up for forty years. 😶 Decades after I moved on from that workplace, a lot of former coworkers reconnected on social media. My old mentor is one of them, and he tries so hard to rekindle a friendship that I no longer feel good about.

2024-12-30 06:28:35 +0000 UTCI am so grateful I stumbled upon your reactions on YouTube. It only took one movie the very first and listening to the cadence of your voice and the intellect of your spiritual mind to easily become a Patreon member. As soon as I can, I will upgrade, money is still very tight and it may not seem like much with five dollars but you deserve so much more. I will find a way to upgrade as soon as possible. I got a cost-of-living increase of $24 a month for my Social Security, it won’t help with food or other things and you my newest friend are not a sacrifice nor an indulgence you are deserving the upgrade for all the hard work and passion you put into your work and all the lessons you help share with your beautiful mind. I so wish I could do more. I so wish many of us could do more. Thank you for making my lonely and painful time here so much better just by being you. As always many blessings to you, your wife, those you love and who love you in return.
