Hey everyone! Moonlight Chat hangout before going live on YouTube occurs in about half an hour (8:00 PM EST USA) and everyone is allowed to listen in and read messages. However, only VIC tier and Night Life Masters may send messages and use the voice chat.

Just click "moonlight_text" under text channels and "Moonlight Chat" under voice channels.

Nyx Fears, BaptismOnFire, and David of Midnight Marinara should all be there for 8. We'll hang out for an hour and then slide right into the liv...

Moonlight Chat Tomorrow Night!

 YOU HEARD IT HERE, FOLKS!

Moonlight Chat is finally back in session and will be happening tomorrow night (April 22nd) at 9:00 PM EST. That means 6:00 PM PST and 2:00 AM in the UK.

If your tier includes Moonlight Chat perks, you'll be given the link to the appropriate server tomorrow and be involved in the pre-show hangout, which start an hour before the livestream on YouTube. So, if you're in the US on EST time, you'd show up to the Discord tomorrow night at 8:00 PM after ...

Easter's New (Personal) Meaning + ARG/Webseries Consulting

You know, I really just anticipated having a good little hour of crazy talk in Discord yesterday night, but I felt shortly after that it was much better than that.

Easter, like most major religious holidays in the United States, seems to have lost a lot of its religious meaning in favor of more universal feelings, ideas, and concepts of celebration. Family's a common theme, as is renewal. Yesterday, I felt quite a strong sense of both.

I say it enough that it's becoming an inside joke fo...

Gentle Reminder

The free-for-all Discord hangout is up in about ten minutes! Come one, come all, and if you're a Patreon supporter of $10 or more, connect your Discord account so you can use voice chat. Everyone else, you're free to listen in and use text chat to your heart's content.

(9:00 PM EST April 16th, by the way, in case you read this late.)

The Mad March Hare part of me has come up with a treat for Easter weekend...

I know that it's tough for those in the $1 and $5 tiers to not be included in the live recorded Darkroom sessions. Feels like missing out on something, right?

So, we're gonna fix it by having another Darkroom session Sunday night, April 16th, 9:00 PM EST. The only differences between the one I just had and the next one are these:

- This one will not be recorded, b...

Reminder: Darkroom Live Tonight!

Just a reminder to everyone that Darkroom will be recorded tonight in the Discord server for Night Mind at 10:00 PM EST United States. 

Everyone will be able to sit in, listen to voice chat, and read text chat. If you're Night Life Pro ($10) or above, you can enter messages in text chat. I'll have my moderator and whoever appears from the Night Life Masters tier on voice chat.

If you have a Discord account, connect it to Patreon beforehand, especially if you're part...

Patreon Updates & Live Darkroom

Hello all you beautiful creatures of the night,

Just wanted to let you know there have been some changes to reward tiers. Seeing as how YouTube has decided to be a thorn in my side worse than ever with content ID, I have eradicated the "Night Mind Council"  and its power to choose a mainstream media topic for each month. It's been weighing on me for awhile on what I should do about that.

Now, choosing a topic to cover is under a random chance drawing system available through the $15...

INFOCHAMMEL: Hypnotic for the Bold & Bored

Turn of your TV... and turn on the REAL TV. It's time to get indoctrinated with Infochammel, the leader in HDTV Hypnotic anti-tainment.

Video Rendering

Should be complete in less than twenty minutes, and then it's off to YouTube, where the actual wait begins. I don't anticipate it taking very long, though. Should be up between 2-3 A.M., I estimate. I'll keep you all updated.

Video Update

New video will be up tomorrow evening/early night. Sorry for delay. The original video topic for this week turned out to be undergoing something that meant an immediate switching of gears on my plans, so I had to turn to the next Cabin Fever Dreams entry in the middle of the week, and that meant there wasn't a chance I was getting the video made on time for a public release on Saturday, because it would've had to be done for you guys on Friday, and Friday DEFINITELY wasn't going to happen.

Discord Rules Update

There are now rules pinned in the #general textchat for Discord and a textchat titled after the rules so everyone can see them. It's mainly common sense stuff, but there's one major thing you'll notice:

NO MINORS

If you're under the age of 18, you are not allowed into the Discord server.

The Discord server is a space for legal adults.

Why is this?

Because even though I deeply appreciate all my viewers and supporters reg...

ARG & Webseries Consultation Day!

Hey everyone, if you're seeing this, it's because you've got the Counsel perk, and Monday is the day I like to mainly dedicate to correspondence.

If we're already in talks, just give me an update on your progress, anything we discussed, or reply to the latest message. If not, then send me a message here on Patreon and let me know you're ready to begin discussing your ideas!

Lasagna Cat: Ego Stripping for a Fractured Psyche

DINNER IS SERVED, KIDS! COME AND GET IT!

Update on Video

Last post I just made about this destroyed itself on the mobile app after about ten minutes of typing, so here's the short version:

Video done. Rendering now. Took longer than expected because more effort for better enjoyment.

Uploading to YouTube immediately after render completes. Will give to you guys here when I wake up, I'm exhausted right now, I need sleep.

It'll be Patreon-exclusive for just a few hours. Not the standard half-day or more, I know, and I'm sorry, and I'm upset...

Night Mind: Cabin Fever Dreams

Patrons, as always, are a day ahead. Tomorrow, you get the first installment while everyone else gets this announcement.

Winner: DuploDame90

Puzzle solver DuploDame90 completes the phrase (minus the final letter, which was immediately after supplied by LegoFan).

Cabin Fever Dreams, a twisted departure from the usual Night Mind material covered, will premiere this week.

Stay tuned, munchkins.

This Week

We begin a little trip down the YouTube rabbit hole with a special theme of weekly uploads.

Patreon users get an extra hint:

ECKVA: The True Sequel to Marble Hornets

It feels really good to get back to doing Night Vision, and I'm sure some of you have been waiting for this one. I've finally covered ECKVA.

New Video Incoming + Moonlight Chat Update

Hey all you beautiful creatures of the night,

Just wanted to give a heads-up that a Night Vision entry will be up at some point tonight into early morning and let you know what's going on with Moonlight Chat:

The only reason there haven't been any new MC sessions is because I got my livestreaming privilege pulled for 90 days during the Black Mirror week. That's literally it--I've just been waiting for my ability to livestream to return.

Thankfully, privileges should come back at th...

The $10+ Quandary

Hey there, everyone. If you're reading this, it's because you belong to the $10 donation tier or higher, and I need a little bit of help.

The base perk of being Night Mind Council or higher is listed as input on "Mainstream Media" coverage. TV, Movies, etc... the kind of stuff that YouTube's Content ID system is going to immediately attack me for covering. Patreon is a way for me to put 40 hours or more into a video on something I know Content ID is going to attack and not feel completely viol...

IT WON'T BE THAT BAD

March is going to be different

Darkroom - March 1

First Darkroom of March is here! Questions answered, topics replied to, and a bit of catharsis and explanation.

But mostly, a sense of finally being back to business, and it's really good.

Darkroom - March 1 Uploading Tonight

Thanks to everyone who submitted a question or topic for this month's first Darkroom session! I'm finishing up the audio right now and from there, visual components will be incredibly fast to make. I'll have it uploaded tonight so everyone can have it by morning.

If any of you have been wondering about why it is these past two months have been so dry for the channel or lackluster here on Patreon, I felt it was best to open Darkroom by explaining what's been going on. It wasn't easy to talk abo...
