MAKING A DISCORD

Alright everyone. I thought about what I would be making for Patreon. I was pretty averse to the idea of a discord for awhile now but I decided to pull the trigger on it. We are working on it and it should be ready in like a day or two so if you haven't linked your discord and want a special role and access to patron/sub chats make sure to add it. You'll get a ping in the coming days with a link to the server. 

Thank You

I just wanted to make a little post to thank everyone for the continued support. I've come to rely on Patreon a lot since the income from YouTube has been going down. It's by no means a livable income but I've had to consider alternatives to YouTube and this widens the pool of work options for me significantly. I'm working on more stuff a bit outside of the scope of FPSDIESEL. 

I can say I have started work on a complete rework of my horrendous college film. I need to self fund tha...

Update Again

TLDR AT THE BOTTOM

 I know I made this post on the second channel but I am doing it here as well.  I will link the video but no surprise I just can't come up with or want to dedicate content to Patreon.

 I'm basically restructuring everything with my videos too be more focused on content quality and making things I actually enjoy. I don't enjoy hiding content from viewers for a number of reasons as well. Personal anecdote as I've begun to be more research focused I'...

Big Boy Update.

Weird how shit happens and people reach out to support the channel. So I keep meaning to make an update and just haven't because I go on an angry rant bitching about people who screwed me but this is just too the point most of my extra time is now taken up with contract stuff that I am going to share. but I wanted to give everyone some insight. 

Taking some time off

As some of you knew, my grandmother the woman who helped raise me was going through chemo. She recently passed away. To those that have wished prayers and the like on my family thank you. To those that will in the future now that I’ve posted this thank you again. To the curious, it was not covid but cancer. I’m making this post because making stuff and putting it online is how I make sense of things. Since the diagnosis, she discussed death openly with frankness and death became a constan...

2020 In Review: It Was Rough

So I decided to do a year in review for all patrons. First off Patreon does make a difference in the bills especially this year with emergency Doctor's appointments no advertisers and more so thank you for that. I feel like I should thank people more. I hope some people despite the chaos of last year had a good one. But I do wanna thank everyone here. It's been a struggle personally but I am feeling a bit energized in the new year. Enjoy the time you have with those you care about because we ...

Kappa Kaiju And Why College Sucks- Explain It Slowly Ep.1

I sit down with Kappa Kaiju to discuss film making our weirdly similar academic history and why college both does and does not suck. As well as America's weird gun obsession, Yandere Dev stans, and future PvP zones. 

Video taken down

So as some of you watched recently my video on cancelling and public shaming was taken down for violating guidelines...which ones I violated I don't know. I know I described tortured but it historical context and it's not like I'm glorifying it. Anyway YouTube removed the video to protect the kids or something. The video was also claimed at the same time by a band who sampled a clip from the show Rome. They claimed me for the clip.

I'm actually on vacation this week so I'm pretty piss...

Everybody is cancelled

Where Has The Content been & Talking about being a Minority

I've been in a rut so I am sharing this with all patrons to let everyone know where I am at. 

I'm also talking a bit about race and racism if that bothers you but I've felt very worried for speaking about my own experiences but I don't want to do that anymore. It's not why people like me anyway so I give some background on life for me on the other end of the internet. 

Mukbangers Eating Gross Amounts of Cheese For Views

Something a bit more laid back while the bigger stuff is in the pipeline. I'll start sharing some of my findings on here soon. As well as making a second channel. At some point...lots of stuff to work on. 

Youtube's Secret Vegan Cult

Probably the closest to a documentary I've gotten I've been learning a lot of new skills for this one. Again wasn't going to be an early access video but youtube told me otherwise.

The History Of Perez Hilton

Since a lot of people were unfamiliar with Perez Hilton I thought I'd make a mini doc chronicling his dramas. He is basically the original commentary channel now that I think about it. 

Shane Dawson Is Mediocre

Not sure when this video will drop it ended up getting a copyright claim and I can't make a dime on this 34-minute video...It's about Shane's filming. Wasn't going to be the early access Patreon video for this month but here is an extra. 

Making Strangers into Famous Influencers

(I filmed this all the way in february) 

Covid-19 Update

I hope everyone is well. I spent the last while pretty bed ridden thinking I had covid-19 and would soon be punching my ticket out of here. If you don't know yes my grandmother has cancer and I have been focusing on her and helping the family regarding treatment and making sure she is okay.  I know a lot of people have lost their jobs. My girlfriend included, we miss our NYC dearly. It's incredibly bad here and it feels like the end of the world. I don't know how everyone's financial sit...

I'm Back

So after a short hiatus I return, I honestly needed to get away and going to Boston helped a lot. I was incredibly busy but I'd much rather have problems I want then problems I don't. I also got some bad family news which is never fun this news is especially bad. I can't share now but it has completely taken up my time at home. In the coming days I will have a patron video with my girlfriend and myself. A podcast on how you search for investigative pieces and some interview 101. 

I...

Why You Need To Quit Social Media

Here is my video essay on what I found about social media and why you should quit it. Tons of facts about social media. 

New Thangs

So thought I'd share some upcoming news with you all first. So upcoming in February I'll be at PAX. I'll be doing some coverage of the gaming industry same as I did for bronies. It's been planned months in advance so that's super good. Hoping to get some great footage and talk to great people. If you're going I will see you there.

Next is a more comprehensive video on the dangers of social media. I'm researching and writing it right now. Trying to learn motion graphics for it though. I...
