FLCL video title poll

i cant decide which of these titles makes the most sense for this video so i figured id see how it hits a more general audience. i know these are all "bad" titles but i dont really feel strongly about trying to capture the video's premise or thesis in the title because i don't think that's really the video's "selling point", and it sort of doesn't have a singular thesis anyway. in case it's helpful i figured i'd include the current thumbnail. also happy to hear any other ideas yall might have...

Last night I got the news that my best friend, podcast cohost, and bandmate Nicky passed away suddenly. I don't know that I'll ever quite find the words to articulate just to what degree they were a beacon of optimism and of creative energy in my life and in so many others', how much their natural wisdom and exuberance challenged me to always be the best person I could be, what a constant their presence has been in my life through so many ups and downs, and how much their work has meant to me...

Human Insects Episode 1: Ashita no Bud

I thought it'd be helpful to use patreon's feed as sort of a catch-all spot for the longform stuff I do, between Q&As and my podcast, and since that's just rebranded it seemed like the ideal time to start. If you don't want the extra email notification every other week, it's kinda buried but patreon has email notification settings for that sort of thing. also, if listening to stuff thru patreon isnt ur thing, the podcast is also available on anchor (2022-08-24 16:41:58 +0000 UTC View Post

Patron Q&A for "Does This Lost Sonic Dub Even Exist?"

I forgot to post an audio-only version last time so here's audio for this one, should be more battery/data/screen-efficient for anyone listening on their phones. I'm gonna get a youtube version uploaded right away as well on the second channel like always.

Thank you so much for your continued patience. I promise the stuff I have in store will be worth the wait.

Quick update!

hey yall, just writing to let you know that i'm gonna be taking the next month or so off from uploading/being online. gonna use the time to get more significant work done on some bigger projects as well as dealing with having to move again, as well as well as attempting to better combat both mounting burnout and my RSI flaring back up. im doing totally fine, this is more a preventative measure than anything else, so to speak. i've got a few streams and a podcast in the backlog that i'll put o...

at long last! the q&a for the arisa good luck video

these nearly four hours flew by bc we were having so much fun answering all the thoughtful & engaging questions yall asked. sonic underground q&a will come much sooner this time around. thanks so much.

Questions thread for "Does This Sonic Dub Even Exist?"

heres the video: https://youtu.be/_GmRdvhif2Q

and sorry for the delay on the q&a, it's been a really hectic week and finding time for alyssa and i to both sit down to record has been difficult. it'll be out before the end of the month though.

Camera lens tests

recently shelled out for some new camera equipment for a big video i've been working on in between some other vids. these pics are taken with a 58mm and a 24mm lens with some extension tubes in place. The game is Chou Majin Eiyuuden Wataru - Mazekko Monster running on an unmodified GBA model AGB-001. Nothing too crazy, I'm still learning how to get better cleaner footage for live action segments, especially since there's been more and more of them in the past few videos.

Updated version of the new video is live

having to reupload is almost certainly gonna hurt the vid's performance but this was kind of a necessity tbh. hopefully it hasnt been too confusing. questions thread is a few posts down. thanks a million.

new video pulled for reupload

jesus christ lmao im so sorry for both the barrage of posts and all the chaos and confusion, but the new video is currently unlisted. i need to add some new information i missed, as well as some general rendering/uploading issues that necessitated i make a revised version of this video for upload. i'll get it reuploaded as soon as possible, but in the meantime the old one is still unlisted, you can find the link in the questions thread post over here. thankfully there's no misinformation in t...
