  • Weather Update

    It’s smoky. In other news, a health update. Sonogram detected I have a goiter. Confirming I do have an autoimmune disorder, unknown if Hashimoto’s or Graves. No nodules or signs of growths, so no signs of thyroid cancer, just enlarged thyroid. Side note, this is likely why I have such limited vocal ability and experiance…

  • Systems Check

    It’s that time of year again. Its the time of year Hooray. OH, and good news! Ok I don’t think we can just word art our way out of this one. It’s time for serious talks. Basically since about 2017-2018, I have had a yearly fight with my lymphatic system. Every year its a little…

  • Anger Seeking

    The world we live in shrinks every day. We may not be running out of physical room on this place called earth, but we ran out of room in this place called society long ago. It feels like I grew up in a, if not the era that most quickly vacuumed up all of that…

  • Expectations are hell

    So I spoke recently at length about how I feel like the “independent content creator” bubble has burst. Yeah I know it wasn’t the most uplifting thing, and some have even criticized me for perhaps just being pessimistic and doomsday-esque about the subject. A quick note there, I am pessimistic by nature. Success has been…

  • Content

    I’m not sure. But I’m less sure than I’ve ever been. But I’m more sure than I was. I think the bubble has popped, I think independent creator content is on the way out, maybe forever, maybe until the next renaissance spurred by a new platform. I’m not sure. I don’t know what the future…

  • So that was a month huh?

    Holy crap. For quite some time I knew I wanted to take a minimum of 1 month away from streaming/content creation and focus on having a solid month of just being DAD. I wanted to have the most non-american stereotypical paternity leave possible. It’s pathetic how poorly this county treats, well most everyone frankly, but…

  • Doctors

    Does anyone actually have a good experience with their normal healthcare? I feel like I have not had a decent relationship with a doctor since I was a kid. Becoming an adult felt like instantly going from being precious and cared for, to being a burden. I had a pretty rough childhood health wise. I…

  • A family.

    So it happened. Our family of two became a family of three. It’s probably one of the most exciting nerve-wracking and anxiety-provoking a set of days I’ve ever had. I wouldn’t take it back for anything. I sit here now day two of having her home at 5:30 a.m. pulling the late night shift letting…

  • Today is the day?

    I just wanted to say. Thanks. Thanks to everyone that helped me go from a lost wandering soul to someone that feels ultimately so fulfilled. Its 5:17AM. We are waiting for a bed to open up so we can begin the induction process. I’m nervously wandering around, I’ve done all the checklists things I can…

  • Transition

    We’ve had 9 months to prepare for this moment, and oh prepare we have. But I still have no idea what life is actually going to be like. Being a parent is something I’ve dreamed about for as long as I can remember, but it always seemed like a dream. Not something that could ever…
