Sometimes I don't have a lot to write about. Sometimes I need a break from The Internet Constitution (so I assume you do too) so I don't want it to be every single week, and prefer to have as many weeks between the series as I spent consecutively publishing about the idea. Content direction is something I always think about. Maybe I get distracted easily, but I'm constantly trying to improve what I'm doing, how I do it and what I offer to you.
The things I'm enjoying the most, and am most passionate about right now are (in no particular order):
- Working on the card game and making AI assisted art
- Opinions on random things going on in the world
- Live streaming
- Conversations with people about their lives and opinions
- Roasting coffee
The stories were supposed to be extended into January to go along with the remainder of the CSRQ content, but I can't figure out how to make them in a way that's interesting, funny and not potentially mean, so I'm not doing them anymore. They'll run through the end of 2023 and that's it. I'm also not going to do the lifting charts here because it feels like it's more pollution in the feed than actual value.
For the remainder of the year I will be streaming on Fridays by myself, getting back into a good rhythm of solo streaming, and that may include artwork creation (we'll see). Part of the reasoning behind that is that the holiday season is very busy, so I don't think I'll be able to get people on Fridays this month. I also have a trip next week, so I only really have 3 Fridays left this year, and two of them are during the heaviest family/party time of the year, and the last one is this Friday (but I might try to have someone on for some fun).
Starting after the new year I will be adding Wednesdays back into the streaming schedule at the same time as Fridays. I love streaming, and I feel like it will give me the opportunity to get more guests if I have another night available for them to appear. I will also be working on new short form content for YouTube and Rumble and micro-content for TikTok/Instagram Reels/YouTube Shorts based around the card game and dailoy news/politics (the entire point of the cards). The plan for exclusives here is expanding on that art creation and some of the jokes as well as some content that I'm not allowed to post on YouTube. For the most part, the Rumble exclusives will end up being just CSRQ updates, which are currently expected to run out at the end of January, unless they keep publishing and I can get more of their victim insider content.
Another set of exclusives here will continue to be the articles/blogs, the Monday streams, and polls and discussions around the card game. I might also start doing a lot more posting about roasting coffee if I can figure out how to do it well and if there's any interest there.
Long story short, 2024 will continue to be an evolution in my content creation, and as I get close to completing another revolution around the sun, I want to state how grateful I am for all of you, because without you I'd just be talking to myself, and that's a little nuts.
