i'm back... again... Transcription

• 00:00 - 00:30 Hi. I bet it seems like I haven't been doing much, but I got to tell you, bored tonight. Oh, by the way, my power's out in the cosmic sense of things going a little weird. My power's out. Uh, so it's not like I don't have any power. This isn't like emergency red lighting. It's just the accent lighting, but my main light, uh, the outlet isn't working on it right now. So, I have a I have a backup battery um for my computer just in case the power goes out. So, I I guess I got to make this relatively quick. I'm back now officially. As of
• 00:30 - 01:00 this video, I'm back. Um, and this time they're going to have to rip me rip me away from this. Man, it's only myself. I keep saying they. There's really no they. It's me, you know. It's always been me. I'm just now reaching the limitation of what me can do. But also me can do more. Me know that. But me need do more because more plan ahead of time. If I get plan, then I do more. That's the way the world
• 01:00 - 01:30 works. I need everyone to raise their hands up into the air and send just the tiniest bit of energy up in my general direction, spirit bomb style. Um, I don't know what I'm going to do with this spirit bomb. Actually, I know exactly what I'm going to do with the spirit bomb. I'm going to slam dunk it to finish this goddamn movie. Been working on that, among other things. I've been trying to catch up everything. Everyone's like, "You got to get stuff off your plate." And I'm like, "This is
• 01:30 - 02:00 me getting stuff off my plate. This is what it takes sometimes." I didn't want to fall out of videos again. Uh, and I don't have any excuses for it this time. I really don't, you know, I don't I I wish I did. I wish I had some fancy words or something really really profound to say, but it's all the same thing that I've been working on this entire time. I've now worked on this for uh over two years. Um through numerous setbacks and
• 02:00 - 02:30 numerous disappointments and numerous uh revelations and really cool things. Uh it's been a whole lot and it's nearly there. I keep saying again and again. In addition to working on some really cool things, I've had a lot of very cool meetings. Um for those of you who remember the plan, the plan did work. Side note, this is not the point of this video, but yeah, Edge of Sleep is coming out on TubeBu. That's probably something that I buried lead in here, but yeah, it's coming out on Tuby. If you don't know
• 02:30 - 03:00 what Tuby is, um, it's a it's a streaming service that basically you don't even need an account to go watch it. So, you could go to tuby.com right now and you could check out shows. It's not there. Sorry, it's not there if I if I implied that it was there. May 15th, it's coming out there. United States, Canada, UK, and Australia, I believe. Um, and then who knows, VPNs, maybe they work. I have no idea. Uh, but there's no goal this time. Not at all. It's just coming out. It's also very hot in here. Normally I have an air conditioner and
• 03:00 - 03:30 it's not on cuz the power is out. So, I'm just left in the lurch of doing a whole lot of nothing. I can record, but I don't know how much longer my battery is going to last for this computer. But I want to, and I will as soon as the power comes back, whenever it does. Oh, I don't know. What? Uh, is this me? Even I don't know. Look, I Amy showed me this and I thought someone made like an edited image and
• 03:30 - 04:00 being like, "Haha, I'm in that Marvel movie or whatever it is." And I I swear to God, I was looking at that picture. I'm like, is that not me? Is that not me? Someone edited and put two Five Nights at Freddy's dots on my eyes? Well, let's go ahead and say that it's me. Even when it comes out and it's another actor, it's actually me. They're mistaken. I'm the one there. Wink. Uh, it's been a time and not a bad time
• 04:00 - 04:30 either really. It It's It's not. Yeah. Things are not good right now in the rest of the world. Obviously, I'm not ignorant to that. And I've been so tunnel visioned in what I'm doing. Feel guilty for a lot of reasons. You know, not being able to pay attention to everything. And the limitations of what I am able to do are never as much as I want them to be. But,
• 04:30 - 05:00 you know, I can't say that I'm having a bad time. I can't. I cannot. I've always said I love the moments where I don't know when I'm going to be able to get to sleep. I don't know how early I need to wake up. I don't know how much more there is to do. And I'm just working myself as hard as I can. I live for those moments or those moments make me feel alive, I
• 05:00 - 05:30 guess. And that's Yeah, that feeling way back when I started this channel. That feeling is uh it's been something I've been chasing ever since. So, yeah, it's still good. Even now, still good. And I want to bring that energy back to everything else. I like not giving up. I really like that. So, the red lighting is very
• 05:30 - 06:00 symbolic cuz I'm lost in the blood. And I sure as am, but almost out. Almost finding my way out. So, yeah. Yeah, I just wanted to put another update out there just because yeah, it's been too long. I will have a lot of stories to tell a lot. I will have 2 years of life that I have lived that I've been holding back on and it's it's it's just it's crazy the mundanity of
• 06:00 - 06:30 everything that I've been doing thus far. If I had actually been recording it and there was a documentary made of it, I think that would be far more compelling and human of a story than any movie I could ever hope to make. Uh, and I know that's egotistical because it's just like me talking about myself, but hey, this is my YouTube channel. It's kind of the entire point of it. I'm just kind of talking about myself. And so, in this video where I'm talking about myself, I think I'm going to be done cuz I have a lot more to do and I need to yell at the power company. I'm going to
• 06:30 - 07:00 see if I can edit this. I think I can get it on my laptop and then edit it and then I think I can I think I can bump uh internet from my phone to upload it. I think I'm going to do that. If it got online then that happened and I was really struggling or I borrowed somebody's Wi-Fi. I have no idea. Back final final V3 last edition the return of the blood.
