Setting aside the bit, Geega is somebody I admire like hell, both as a friend and someone I look up to.
AND NO, IT’S NOT JUST BECAUSE SHE’S ALSO A NEW YORK ITALIAN SETTLE DOWN.
But this sentiment resonates with me a lot. I’ve had a lot of moments in my life where I’ve needed a hand and haven’t always gotten one. But I’ll always remember the people who went out of their way to help me when they didn’t need to. I’m forever grateful for those moments of generosity and hope to pay it forward every chance I can, by helping lift up my friends so we can all grow together, create opportunities for others where my voice and actions have the ability to make a difference, and be someone who in turn, others can look up to, who models “doing it right” – which is something I’m still figuring out, as I’m sure we all are. But it’s important to me to move through this space (and life) with the same honesty and integrity that she does.
So ask yourself WWGD?
Okay that one was a joke. 😘
Pausing for a second to express how lucky I feel every day to get to do things I like with people I enjoy. Most of my closest friends have come from my time as a content creator through VTubing, NoPixel, or in random discord servers. I seriously cannot express how unique and kind the friends I’ve made are.
As I think back on how I made it to where I am, I picture tons of faces that helped me along that path. I think the best thing I can do with my time and position is try to be one of those faces for others. But since I’m also a corporate sicko, I’m approaching it with scale in mind, especially now that my health has vastly improved.
That said, I’m here to announce more announcements:
I didn’t just start 1 company, I’m actually starting 7 projects across 4 companies.
For the rest of this month, I’m going to shitpost a little bit less and focus on telling you about what I’ve been working on as a founder in the creator industry.
All of these projects are launching in Alpha or Beta, so I’m turning all of you (especially mutuals) into my guinea pigs to give me feedback as you try things out.
Working myself to death any%

I have a migraine so bad I cannot even open my eyes so members, let’s reschedule the concert until the end of the month…I’m sorry to disappoint but I might need to go to the doctor tomorrow morning…….
Sometimes I feel so down on myself, like I've failed to grow past my limits or that this is the best I've got in me. It keeps my mind in this dark place and I become bitter and jealous or angry at myself thinking that I'm not doing enough. Honestly this happens a lot to me every year. I could be doing OK then I take a look at my statistics anywhere, could be YT or Twitch streams or even this forsaken place with tweet likes and if it's slightly lower than usual or it plateaus I feel like a failure. I cope, I come up with excuses, I get bitter and jealous and get angry at my peers for doing better than me and growing much faster than me. After awhile it goes away and I'm normal again, but it still festers until I'm given a slight bump in my stupid stats. It's never really gone.
But the best way for me to get rid of those negative emotions properly is when I hear from people who watch me. From small things like making their day better to larger more personal stories about inspiring them or helping them stay happy or well, even alive. Humans tend to focus on the negative and I don't realize that just as much as I need community in my life, the people that watch me need it to. I have more of an effect on others than I think and I should care more about that then numbers and growth. Honestly, even though I post this. I'll still care about them, still stress about not growing, worry about falling into obscurity, etc. But I think with each time I go through this I get a little bit better at handling my emotions and mature as a person. So thank you all for sharing your lives with me, you help me just as much as I could ever do for you.
