I already put this back up high on the shelf so this pic will have to do the job. I'm mad at that thing.

Hey everyone, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving if you celebrate! If not, I hope you're doing well. Anyway, I just wanted to give a quick update about what's going on and vent a little. 

So first off, yes, the room tour is happening. I started filming it last night. It's one of those things where I was like hmm, this should be quick and easy to do! But, NOPE! I'm enjoying the process though and it's forced me to clean up around here, lol. It's coming soon and I hope it turns out how I want it to! It's definitely not as easy as I thought it would be but I'm very excited to work on it. It's about time I showed you all around!

But before I settled on doing the room tour, I was in a bit of a funk where I just lacked inspiration to do anything. And then because I feel like I don't have any solid ideas, I freak out, get anxious, and then nothing happens. Then that quickly turned into having  TOO MANY IDEAS! Which is definitely not a bad thing, but I spent about an entire day just writing notes and scripts on various things, then slowly narrowing the list by trying things out. 

1. The Akklaim Wireless Head to Head NES controllers: I was soooo set on finally doing a video on these things. I wrote a script, researched what I could (there isn't a lot of info out there,) and after doing all of that, THEN decided to see if they worked. So of course, they didn't work at all. So for a second I thought about filming the video anyway, but then there would really be no point. So now I'm trying to decide to ditch the idea all together OR just order some tested ones off of eBay. I'll probably end up buying another one, because I do like making videos on fucked up accessories and I think people enjoy watching them. 

2. The Intellivision Voice Module/Happy Birthday Intellivision thing: So, since you guys are my patrons, I will be real with you. I'm simply stumped at how to play one of the games, Bomb Squad, that uses the Intellivoice. It worked, THANK GOD, but I have absolutely no idea how the FUCK to play that game. So if I can't play all the games, then I can't do an intellivoice video. I'm sure I could watch a video or review and figure it out, but honestly, I just said "fuck it" and decided to move on. 

3. Awesome random topic idea! The good thing is I got a spark to write a script on something totally different, and I don't want to talk about it until the script is totally done. Sometimes I feel like I jinx myself by saying things out loud, and then it doesn't work out . . . as dumb as that sounds. But when it's time, I'll tell you guys all about it and I hope you're into it! It may not get a ton of views but it's something I think about a lot when it comes to electronics.

4. Video on Holiday Commercials: So, I had an idea to do a video on my favorite Holiday commercials. Someone in my chat said the nostalgia critic already did it,  so now I'm hesitant because I don't want people to think I'm ripping him off or whatever. So that's on the back burner for now, but maybe I'll do it since I mean, my list will be different and in my own style so idk. What do you guys think about that? I would mostly focus on older commercials if I did this. I'm open to opinions and I'm not totally in love with the idea anyway.

Okay, so those were basically the things I was working on and thinking about. I thought a numbered list would help organize this post but I can see it is very much all over the place so if you're still reading this, you're amazing and I appreciate you! 

And LASTLY, I might ask this question on twitter too, but I want to start with you guys: Do you have any videos you'd like to see from me that you think would be quick to do? I really want to upload more, and I'm not trying to make excuses but sometimes trying to juggle streaming regularly on twitch and dealing with anxiety issues really drains me mentally. It sucks and it's frustrating. I get stressed out thinking I'm not delivering content fast enough and it's been bugging me lately. So feel free to tell me what you want from me bellow. Even if it's something I'm not interested in, maybe it will trigger another idea, ya know? 

Thanks for allowing me to vent and I can't wait to hear your feedback. I'm SO excited to get the room tour done! I'm hoping people will want to see things I show in the tour in more detail, so more videos could spring from it (if that makes sense.) 

See ya on the internet!
