Rest of July (Patreon)

As I've been open with, I had a long conversation with Caitlin again and it's so easy to over promise on content before jumping into everything. I've done this for a long time, I understand why I do, but now I'm going to just try to move my own way and hope that it's understandable for you all. 

As a suggestion, I will be trying marathon style videos for some of the shorter content we don't do often. I tested it with the Studio Choom video we did the other day that you guys' seemed to enjoy and engage well with. I'm glad that they were still enjoyable even if dance isn't my area of familiarity. I would enjoy watching more of those things with you all. I'll be doing compilations of studio chooms, live stages, etc posted as one big video periodically as a way to keep them around. I'm still trying to figure out a good way to take suggestions for those videos.

There's no dates or episode numbers in this overview. Everything brings me stress when I am trying to fulfill a quota and allows for people to question me or expect things of me, which I've noticed I don't handle well. I took this style of "schedule" from some of the anime pages I follow, they simply have a post saying what will be covered in the week/month without episode requirements. It feels better this way. This makes it so if something is here in this post, you can expect some sort of coverage on it within the month. I'm not wanting to burnout, I thought about doing videos nearly every day I was gone and anticipated these releases so much more when I removed myself from the stress. I don't want to quit, this is all I've wanted to do. I think that this will help keep me in shape to keep going. It allows me to tell you "Hey, we'll be checking this out this month." without making it as easy for people to say "Where's episode XX of ___" under other pieces of content or in my messages. Please be respectful and understanding of this. Thank you in advance. 

I've just returned home, two days before posting this and I will be leaving at the end of this month as well for a quick stop at a convention with friends 26-29th. I won't be scheduling too much this month, things will likely be bulk uploaded but I will make sure there's content going up on those days I'm away. 

If this helps, I will be continuing this in the future, as a compromise between what you want and what I want/can handle. I will continue to work on backlog as well, I will not quantify it but I'll do my best to work through it. 

Please do not leave requests on this post or question backlog content, trust me that I have a list and I will work through it as best as I can. 

I am sorry to anyone I have disappointed or have upset, but I'd rather promise less and do more, than always feel like I'm doing less. Once I'm in my own space and feeling more confident and secure, I think things may feel better, but for now, please just be understanding and allow me to try things and just figure it out. 

If you have any questions, let me know. I am looking forward to trying this out this month. 

*If you are in the request tier, you are free to send this month's request as well to my DM! Taking them until July 18th, since this will be my first week within the month home.*

- We'll be finishing filming Bloodhounds today, another kdrama poll may not come in July or Aug. since I will be filming the first drama for YouTube and it will be posted on Patreon. 

- What are you guys' thoughts on R U NEXT? Survival? I haven't heard too much on the show besides it being I-LAND 2, but now I've just gotten news that MNET took the rights from HYBE and now I-LAND 2 will come out next year. 

- If I added a gg in the rotation, would you prefer NewJeans or Le SSERAFIM?
