To those who don't know yet, I got a copyright strike on my Solo Leveling video on Wednesday. That's why I didn't upload a video like how I intended on Friday about the shift of this channel. The vid was nearing 300,000 views, and I am quite livid about the whole ordeal. The next step would be to start a legal process, and I can't really afford to do that against Sony right now.
This also means no livestream this Wednesday, so next content will be Thursday unfortunately.
Need to give vid update. It was set to release this week, but unfortunately there is 1-2 min in the video where, under normal circumstances, it would be viewed as a politically neutral point. But with what's happened this week, it would not be viewed like that.
So to avoid horrible timing, it is pushed back to next week.
I haven't properly been updating on YT, apologies, so here's the update. Finished recording new vid, will NOT be another 40-60 min video, more like 15-20 lol. Putting lots of effort into it this week, hope to get it done by Friday, but no promises.
The reason it's been so slow is cause a lot has been happening, on both ends. I got a new kitten last month, and shortly after my other cat unexpectedly passed away, so I've been a bit of an emotional wreck. Been doing a lot of business work and trying to set up some REAL big moves, but unfortunately while some numbers make me look like a business god (Grok said you have a less than 1% chance to make as much money as I have investing with the amount I started with), the ones lenders ask for don't look good for the algorithms. Trying what I can. Any Working Capital loans I get I pay off in half the estimated time, but after over 6 years of doing this, Shopify doesn't care and won't offer me more.
The final thing is I've chosen to start prioritizing my health above the business and YT channel. So that's caused a bit of a backup. But enough of that, back to work on the vid I go. MUI goku pic unrelated.
Recovering from sickness, but unless I get worse tomorrow, the Miyamoto Musashi video should be up on Friday. It'll be finished and uploaded sometime Thursday, where it will become available for the appropriate level Members, and our discord Dragon's Wings folk.
Pic unrelated and is just there to grab your attention. Did it work?
Various updates, I added 7 new emotes to the YT members section, Musashi video is >1/3rd of the way done, will try to do a weekly livestream, Tea Time With Teaman. Am looking to further improve livestreams and members perks. Feedback wanted and appreciated.
I will be at Anime Matsuri next week, Saturday only, not as a booth this time but as an average joe walking around. If u see me feel free to say hi, I'll either be wearing a Dragon's Treasure T Shirt or one of my Saiyan shirts.
Store side, 2 new teas, and the holiday teas are available for the month of July. Keeping it short so I can go back to work. Thank you all for your support. While I've crawled out of the hole I was stuck in, now I need to fill that hole up or risk falling into it again, which is very much a possibility. I'm thankful for all the support out there, as I'm still quite the poor teaman, just not as destitute as before lol.
I know it's been a while since I have given an update on the Musashi video, but I think I'm not going to include the new book I got in the vid. It's trying to paint it's own narrative instead of giving a historical view, and I caught it trying to claim something as pretty obvious BS as absolute fact.
The only part that REALLY annoys me is, because of this, I STILL don't know if the tale of Musashi having an illegitimate child that died as a toddler is legit or not. And it's going to personally drive me crazy. I guess I'll include SOMETHING in the video that says it was a possibility. But I really don't like ambiguity for something like this.
For the YT only people who aren't aware, I should keep you up to date. There will be a Q&A livestream this Thursday. The reason being, I suppose a short version, lotsa things happened on Twitter, and my store blew up in sales, we're talking like take a slow sales month, add 50% to it, and that's how many sales I got in a week. So I'll be doing a Q&A for all the new frens who don't know anything about who The Teaman is or what The Dragon's Treasure is all about.
Needless to say, I'm swamped and behind, lol. But this also means I'm not on the cusp of financial ruination, so folks should be happy about that. That'll also mean I can't focus on YT for a couple weeks, apologies for that. Take this cute girl as a token of my apology.
Important update on the Miyamoto Musashi vid and the YouTube channel. If you just want a TLDR: found some new info that requires further research, will work on new script/vid while that goes on.
As I'm editing the audio, something sprung in my head and I began to do some extra digging online. I then stumbled into some information about Musashi that I had NEVER heard before, and looks to be legit. This is a subject matter that is very near and dear to me, so I picked up a new book to do some more reading and research. Some portions of the video will need to go through some heavy edits.
In the meantime, I've already been mulling over a new video idea for the last week or 2 anyway, so I'm going to get started on that script. This one should actually, hopefully, be a less than 20 min vid lol, and it will be one requiring minimal edits so that'll go by quickly too.
Hello all, could use some help. Before that, began recording vid on Miyamoto Musashi. It ended up 19 pages, and will be split into 2 vids. So there's progress on that end.
What I could use help with, the tax man did a number on me this year, and the switch 2 giveaway dropped like a rock after the Nintendo price controversy. So paying end of month bills and rent is going to be especially difficult. Help me get through one more month, check out my store and pick yourself up some tea, coffee, and/or soaps. It's what funds this channel, I get almost nothing from ad revenue. I'm trying to maintain high quality for everyone, which unfortunately for ad revenue and algorithms means I'm dead in the water.
Help a Teaman out, so I can keep working on these vids. Please.
