YouTube Members & Patrons can now watch the new video! There will be a premiere early next week for everyone else so keep an eye out! This was probably the hardest video I have ever made & I sincerely hope it does what I want it to do. I didn't want it to be a "preaching to the choir" kind of thing, in case it shows up in parent's Google searches. This video very almost broke me. I almost gave up on it multiple times. There were technical problems, script changes, emotional difficulties & periods of ill-health in the middle of everything. I really hope you like it :)

If you’re following me on Bluesky you may be aware that I am currently having a vertigo flare-up. Worst one in years, likely BPPV. I have an ENT appointment tomorrow, but I have been unable to do any work at all since we came back from the beach. Last time this happened, I was somewhat incapacitated for several weeks & I’m obviously hoping that isn’t the case this time, but I may be off work for at least another week while I recover. Wish me luck 😩 The next video is SO close to being finished, it probably only needs another day or two of editing but there’s no way I can finish it while feeling like this. Your patience is always such a comfort to me, I’ve been pretty down over this 😭

There is a new video on the way! About the calls for a new “profound” autism diagnosis. But in the meantime, I’m going to re-upload the video I made in 2021 about the Brexit Remain campaign & why, as a British immigrant in the EU, I felt utterly betrayed by them.
I’ve fixed some audio issues it had & did a new thumbnail, but the reason for the re-upload is that many of the key players have since rebranded themselves as leftist voices & I feel like those who don’t remember 2016-19 might need reminding of how untrustworthy they are.
Look out for it on your homepages from Monday evening UK time. I won’t do a premiere for an old video but if you haven’t seen it, I’d love the click ☺️

This isn’t like other YouTube videos: it’s much better. My friend ‪@caelanconrad‬ has gone above & beyond: investigating a sham university, exposing the dangers therein & it’s all wrapped in an absolutely stunning package of expert production & beautiful shots. This is an absolute work of art & I am SO inspired. The algorithm is NOT being kind to this, so please, show it some love & engagement!

If you don’t want to click on this cuz you’re not from Maine, then this is for you! Friend of the channel ‪@MainelyMandy‬ is focusing on what’s important: mutual aid & caring for community, and there are likely organisations in your area doing very similar things! Listening to the list of cool orgs doing great work in Maine gave me hope for the rest of us, tbh, there are so many great people out there fighting the good fight. If you can’t join them, support them! And go subscribe to Mandy she’s SO close to 10k subs 👀
