pizza time

Another productive day. I have like 15 tabs pinned right now. TLDR... - jsrs.at update - complete collection split into not weird sex stuff category - nsfw category to come later - kofi account established and opened - waiting for consultations to be cleared for open - posted a new video - cleaned up several accounts assets ;) - planning for more bike videos - planning for collecting written work on jsrs.at I got uhhhh. More of the website rounded out. Looks better now too. Decided I'd commit to having my weird sex art stuff kind of segmented off to another platform once I've got a basis of it, so right now the main art collection is just artistic nudity and not weird furry or sexy nudity. I've got two platforms I'm interested in working with for that stuff actually, but ofc it's gonna require my ID and I still gotta go handle that, ha... It's fun coming back to things and cleaning up half-finished stuff. It feels amazing, being someone chronically unable to muster the strength to handle anything personally gratifying over the last few years. Tomorrow me and Forged are gonna go to the craft fair downtown. Really happy about that. It'll be at a museum downtown I've never been to, because it's like, marketed to families and kids, but I really love shit like that. We'll go to the craft fair, and see the cute displays. Life really is looking up without my former gig, for now. One day at a time. Of course, I've been working on those applications, too. There are a decent amount of middling opportunities that are still significant income upgrades. I'm being a good bit more uhhh, picky than I need to, or should be, possibly. It can be hard to get a grip when you've been off the standard job market for a half decade, at least in these times. But it still feels good. Should help with unemployment, again, something for the ID. I've got the skeleton of my schedule worked out too, it took laying it out to realize I'm going to have to kind of play around within the boundaries of vague timeframes while I'm not "doing anything" for the time being. It looks good to me though, good blocks of time sectioned out for food, and chores, daily, instead of in desperate bursts. Very exciting for me, who needs a lot of structure and direction externally imposed. -- kind of a strange moment here but the xbone was playing videos across the room and just all at once shut down. TV's still on. Wonder what's with that. As far as more project planning goes, looking forward to doing some recording on Monday while I'm home alone. Got the set concept, the script, working on editing notes, for two videos right now. I'm thinking - 'beginner primer on bikes at large' and 'poor? you can still have a great bike!'. I really want to work on the former before the latter, but the reason it's two is that I found myself writing simultaneous ideas parallel to each other... they're related in my mind, explicitly because of how class gatekept bikes are. Trying to balance that truth with making something enjoyable to watch and helpful, haha, well. it has me a little insecure about my integrity to my values or what-have-you. I keep reading r/antiwork when it has me nervous. Find people both more, and less extreme than yourself, and listen to your truth ...or whatever. Those will be nice, though. Later tonight I'm trying to convince myself to go ahead and record for that xbow tiktok I want to make, but ah, the day has gotten away from me again. Who knows. I gotta eat yet. And the video will take editing for the stuff I wanna put up about it, as usual. I saved a handful of the images already. Tiktok is awful, it's impossible to tell how much merit there is in localizing your production to the app, now that you can just do streaming or uploading to tiktok from your computer. Capitalism really loves that competition, doesn't it. Monday will be recording, so I'm thinking Tuesday will be a lot of editing, editing makes my hyperactive distracted mind fail. The smaller, petty things I want to say I need to do are... rework my tumblr code... finish making my carrd a more streamlined version of my landing page... sigh. So much aesthetic and functionality tweaking to this stuff. And working with streamlabs? haha. What a mess. Living in the modern era. Only major thing I decided today that I haven't mentioned is deciding to host my older written work projects local to the landing page. Framing them is going to an ongoing project in and of itself that I hope to find help for long term so I can implement some originally formatted pages that will have optional overlays that kind of help tell the story of how a lot of the poems were connected conceptually, both when I wrote them and then over time. It's very disappointing how there's no poetry-specific social media website really, at this time. Wild. Unprofitable medium these days, I suppose. :/ projects, projects. I hate to admit it but I haven't drawn at all yet today. I had started to draw something cute because twitter made me sad, but then I went back to tweaking all those godforsaken websites and media pages. hah. Might still get up to something. I absolutely got to order some pizza so I can reach into the late night. It's very fun that there are tons of little things that amount to some more substantial achievements over time. Thanks for reading. More to come.
