Sitting In The Car with The Phone and The Da Vinci Code. Sunday, May 11, 2025

Happy Mother's Day. At least I think it was yesterday.
Amber is a Mom but we didn't celebrate.
We're a little heart-broken inside, and I can't explain it here.

It is Monday, May 12, 2025. It is the start of a new day, and a new week.
We watched 'The Princess Bride' last night, and fell asleep to it, waking up at certain moments that I wanted to see.
It's a most excellent movie, all done with practical effects, and traditional story telling. No cgi. I like to watch movies before the advent of cgi.
Anyway, so we enjoyed that. I have listened to some of the audiobook of it, and I want to finish it eventually.
The amazing thing is that the original author also wrote the screenplay. Many authors of novels are not also able to write a screenplay that would work for a film.
& & & & & & & & & & &
Anyway, meanwhile, I'll be playing Minecraft today, arguably the greatest video game ever created. It is an intellectual game, I have discovered. Well, the truth is, no matter who you are, you bring whatever you got onto the table, and there is no limit to what you can put into the game. It's infinity.
As far as rumble goes, I like the site so far, though, I haven't made a penny yet. I'm looking forward to that first victory. Then I will try and double that amount over and over again.
I don't watch videos on rumble, yet. I haven't had time. Apart from watching my brother's videos here once in a while, I haven't begun to explore rumble yet. But, eventually, I will. It's on the queue.
Yeah, I'm broke in real life, and that is a problem. I'd like to be a professional artist and video game player, but that is not working out too well. I'll keep trying, though. It's my dream.
As far as my videos go, I just have fun making them, and hope for the best. I'm a low-tech person. I do what I know how to do, and what is easy for me. I used to spend hours editing videos, but I don't have that kind of time anymore. Plus, I don't have the computer equipment for that. I lost it all, due to lack of money to pay my storage bills. Oops. I lost everything I owned, more or less. That was not a fun experience. At least I got my laptop and a good, extra monitor, so at least I can do my thing in the meantime, until I can get a proper set-up. Well, I've never had a proper set-up. Well, there is always something missing in the equation.
Anyway, thanks for reading.
The internet is slow on the weekends, so maybe now I'll be able to get some things done.
I'll be able to make it through the day, I think, but yeah, I really need to rethink my life, and make some money so I can survive. I have things I want to buy.
I did lose one video for rumble yesterday. I uploaded it, and it didn't work, but by then, I had deleted it off my memory card. Oops. It's on YouTube, if you want to watch the missing video.

It's no big deal, though, most of my videos are the same.
I enjoy what I do, though. The trick is to get other people to like what I do. That is a big challenge.
And then, of course, there is the matter of self-censorship that I have to perform so my videos can be monetized.
At least with rumble, which is good, right from the gate, videos can be monetized. I don't know what YouTube's problem is. I'm still 300 hours of watch time away from being monetized. That's gonna take forever.
Most people only watch a minute or two of my videos. Some actually watch the whole entire thing, which amazes me. I have a hard time watching my videos. No one can stand the sound of their own voice, as it sounds different than the internal voice you hear in your head.
Anyway, it's a crazy world, and we're all trying to live and survive in it.
SURVIVAL MODE IN REAL LIFE: The Video Game
That's what it is. It's all a game, though, Bill Hicks says it's all a ride. He could be right. I'll have to think about that a little bit.
Thanks for reading.
I will continue on rumble since I like it so far.
:)
Definitely rumble is a ride. Let's see if I can make that first penny.
My brother has made 18 cents. I wonder what is the minimum for a payout? One dollar? Who knows? I guess I'll find out eventually.
& & & & & & & & & & &
Always remember, it is 9:11 twice a day.
My life is always an emergency, so yeah, if you got a couple of extra bucks you can spare, please send it my way. I have to pay my car insurance, and I owe people, and I have bills that I am struggling to pay.
Thanks for your consideration.
I guess I'm done for now. I want to play Minecraft.
I don't consider it a waste of time, because...well, I am creating content for my videos, which, in turn, will hopefully make me money one day.
My Patreon page is a recent disaster. I lost the few patrons I had besides my oldest brother. I don't know what I did wrong. Not enough content? Not good enough content? Low quality content? Or maybe my patrons couldn't afford to support me anymore. That's a shame. So, with Patreon, I am at rock bottom, and I have to start that from scratch again.
Wish me luck, for I need it.
