So, it has been too long since my last video. I have recently been struggling with strong subconscious unproductivity barriers, and this sore spot is not helping.

When I originally set up the Ko-fi tip jar, the goal was simply to have an alternative option available for anyone who wanted to support me beyond YT ad revenue. Since the Discord was taken down, I don't know if people knew the Ko-fi was still up. Admittedly, I don't bring it up, and I feels like a beacon showcasing my failure to produce since its launch.

Rather than letting an empty jar sit on my Linktree, I'm thinking about closing it down. I always strive for being someone who loves making videos for more than just profit. Before I close the Ko-fi, I wanted to check in with you all to see if it's worth keeping around or if even you knew it still existed.

Hello and welcome to the Radiumist Patch Notes! I previously attempted to record a video, but I realized I have a great deal to discuss and believe that text is the most effective medium for this update. This update is long as hell, so get your reading glasses ready.

(To be clear, any mentions of my struggles are intended to provide context and explanation, not to garner sympathy.)

===9,000 Sub Special Thank You===
Thank you all for enjoying the 9,000-subscriber special! I hope you noticed that I was experimenting with new editing techniques in that video, though I still feel my skills are below average compared to many other YouTubers. Additionally, looking back, I realize I may have come across as a bit harsh toward Raney; I want to clarify that I have nothing against him or his content. Interestingly, my video has actually surpassed his original in views which is notable, even considering that I have a larger channel.

===Unlistings===
I have recently reviewed the remaining public videos on Radiumist and decided to remove approximately 50 of them from public view.

These videos have not been deleted; they are simply unlisted. You can still watch them via the “ALL of Radiumist” playlist or the Death%/Gaming Grab Bag playlists on Radiumancer. These were some of the more popular gaming clips and Death% videos that were still active. The only one I’ve kept public is “Why fight 5 Craigs when you could fight 1?” because it remains one of my personal favorites and most popular uploads. Unlisting certain videos, such as “Arzette Slaughters All” or “Clicker Heroes - Death%,” was a difficult decision. I wish there were an easier way to transfer video ownership to Radiumancer rather than having to delete and re-upload everything. On the other hand, many videos were very easy to unlist, such as “quicksand” or the PvZ2 Endless Zone livestreams.

The goal of this cleanup is to focus the channel more on my edited projects, such as Things & Stuff, Impressionary, Clip Comps, and voice-over work. Clip Compilations are the only “Classic Radiumist” content I will continue to host here instead of moving them to Radiumancer, if and when I actually make them lol.

===What Happened to Totally Complete-Views/Weekly Wednesday Videos?===
Last week, my focus was on releasing the 9k special. This week has been exceptionally busy because I’ve been interviewing with two companies through multiple rounds. Unfortunately, I remain unemployed despite submitting 600–700 applications since April. While simple dubs or TCV episodes only require voice recording and minimal editing, voice work itself has become a significant hurdle. TCV is designed as an audio-first podcast with a release for Spotify and Apple Podcasts in the long term, but I have struggled to stay productive. I’ve had several days where I prepared with caffeine to get to work, only to end the day with nothing completed.

I was angry at myself for not finishing the 9k special when I promised the weekly Wednesday videos, and I was purposefully trying to apply pressure to make something. I essentially did nothing in July. Despite that lack of activity, it was my most profitable month of the year financially. This is a major concern for me, particularly since TCV was promised last October and I still haven’t produced the first episode. I feel like I am unintentionally leading people on, which is something I want to avoid.

=== ‪@Radiumancer‬ ===
The idea / intent for Radiumancer was to host “Classic Radiumist” content, including playthroughs, Death%, and Beat Hazard videos (and sometimes gaming clips). To some extent, this has happened, but I’ve realized that the secondary channel has unintentionally become my primary focus this year. In 2026, excluding update videos and shorts, I’ve only released 13 videos on Radiumist compared to 66 on Radiumancer. Of course, editing the 9k special was far more time-consuming than uploading a 20 minute unedited CHIMPS run. Balancing YouTube with a 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. job and driving my younger brother to college made the simpler uploads on the secondary channel much more appealing.

Since leaving my job in April and starting the LEGO Harry Potter on Ice series, I’ve realized I can still produce content, as evidenced by the TLH CringeFest earlier this year. Moving forward, once the LEGO Harry Potter on Ice series is finished, I intend to shift my focus back to this main channel and will likely stop uploading to Radiumancer for the remainder of the year.

That being said, my name is Harvey Dent, so let me be Two-Face here.

I’ve been surprised by the lack of interest in the Cat Quest II Overpowered Enemies run. While the LEGO Harry Potter series is a pretty standard playthrough with such a minor inconvenience at best (Compared to when I did the same challenge with LEGO Indiana Jones) that gets 100s or even over 1,000 views per video, the Cat Quest II OP Enemies challenge run barely reaches 50 views per video. Once LEGO Harry concludes, I will finish the CQII playthrough. Looking ahead to new playthroughs, I’m interested in a LEGO Batman 1 on Ice series. But since I don't want to deal with copyright issues after LEGO Harry, I’m also considering a Pokémon Emerald Nuzlocke with commentary and a hard-mode playthrough of Forager.

I plan to move the Death% videos and re-upload/re-publicize them to Radiumancer as a kinda weekly series, alongside new content once the backlog is complete. I may also re-record some of them to improve upon previous attempts. Re-uploading Beat Hazard videos will be simpler since there are only 15 compared to the over 100 Death% videos. Also, I’ve been feeling nostalgic for the PvZ2 Endless Zone videos and want to upload more of those. That being said, I am pleased to see about 10% of my subs also are subscribed to Radiumancer. Even with the changes to new channel monetization, all I really need to hit on Radiumancer is the 1,000 subscriber goal

===The Future of Loud House Videos===
This community post marks the beginning of the end for Loud House content on my channel. As I’ve mentioned, the annual Loud House CringeFests are coming to a close as I shift my focus back to gaming and reaction commentary. CringeFests themselves aren’t disappearing, but I need to diversify the topics they cover. Future subscriber specials will not be centered on The Loud House.

I have a "Final 5" list of topics involving TLH that I still want to cover, and the Master Raney video was one of them.

Two of these projects were already promised: the dub/reading of Rewrite the Stars Part 6 and It’s (Not) Your Fault Part 2. Once these are publicly available, I will host a celebratory livestream on Radiumancer (since I still cannot stream on this channel). I likely won't be continuing with RtS Part 7 or I(N)YF Part 3.

===Future Special Projects (Even if it is too early to fully announce)===
I want to discuss some upcoming projects, though I won't fully spoil the details just yet.

*Halloween Special*
This will be unlike anything I’ve done before—no Creepypastas, no FNaF, and certainly no Lewdest House sequel (which remains one of my biggest regrets). It will likely be a smaller-scale video, especially compared to the planned Christmas special.

*10k Sub Special*
Will probably not reach this before the Christmas special, but who knows when I'll actually hit it? I may hit another spike in viewership like back in March lol. Anyways, it is NOT LOUD HOUSE RELATED! Originally the 5k special before that ran into the 10 year anniversary of BoyEatsFood14. Well, kinda. The original goal was 1 million subs, but hell if I ever reach that, so I lowered it to 100k and then 10k, ultimately landing on 5k, and now it’s the 10k again. Yeah. Annoyingly complicated, what a surprise. This is a seemingly simple “everyone has done this” premise but one I think this would be adequate to celebrate a 5 digit sub number.

*Thanksgiving Special!!! :D*
As in previous years, I won't be making a specific special for Thanksgiving. Whenever I try to plan one, it seems to fall through—not because of family time, but due to work or the job search. However, there is another date to note...

*December 3rd, 2021*
On this day, I uploaded my first video made with DaVinci Resolve—a simple mashup of two “Attack of the Killer Queen with Lyrics” videos. It remains one of my most popular uploads at over 22.5k views and will turn five this year. I’d like to do something to celebrate, but if I can’t make it happen, that’s okay. I never intended to be a Deltarune mashup channel, but much like The Loud House content, it’s a direction I could have taken.

*Christmas Special*
The Unpopular Opinions video is the longest edited video I have ever uploaded, at 1 hour and 20 minutes long. This Christmas special, I expect, to easily be over 2 hours long. If you followed the deleted Discord back in February, you could probably guess what the topic is (This is one of the 4 remaining videos). Because of this, I do anticipate not uploading much, if not anything, over November or December.

*2026 Clip Comp for New Years*
On New Year’s Day, I will release the “Games I Played in 2026” Clip Comp, which I want to make an annual tradition. While the games I played this year might be considered a bit "trashy," I’m confident in the footage I’ve saved.

*Valentines Day*
Idk

*April Fools*
My April Fools videos aren't the traditional pranks, but the topic will mark five years of content creation for Radiumist.

===The End===
If you’ve read this far, you are truly a dedicated supporter, and I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to go through this entire update. Thank you so much for reading this wall of text until the very end!

Thanks for scaring me YouTube! 🫠👍

Video was up for 3 years, but when I updated it to unlisted, of course they'd look at it again. At least the video wasn't completely removed off the platform, I guess

EDIT - To give an extra update, Bluesky is now the one doing the automatic updates for YouTube uploads and TrueAchievements milestones, because the TA integration broke on Twitter and I've been having so much more fun on Twitter than Bluesky.
