It’s one of the greatest archival platforms in existence. Everyone should take advantage of that. Just upload some videos of whatever and keep it on the low - diary style.

Here is a piece that I am livestreaming indefinitely on youtube. It’s footage from basically everywhere I’ve been in the past 3 years or so. All over America. YouTube is really a blessing; even if it was _just_ a storage platform for video it would be above and beyond anything else. I really recommend finding ways to make stuff for youtube.

ever since i’ve deleted social media, youtube has been my everything like i cannot lie
as a child of the internet, ive always been on youtube but i have a deeper appreciation for it now
thank you to the random people who upload concerts, speeches, and old movies that were otherwise be inaccessible or impossible to find
where else can i find
the making of do the right thing (1989),
mos def at fat beats (1999),
constantly rewatch mtv‘s downtown,
watch dick gregory at the city club of cleveland,
and listen to berry gordy‘s memoir
FOR FREE??
and of course it’s a lot of bs on youtube but you just have to use it right
(linked mos def at fat beats, cause its just that good)

if you want to make videos out of a love for the form, to express yourself and romanticize your life, it doesn’t really matter who sees them maybe… feel like ive been interested in making youtube videos for a while but dont want to be a “YouTuber”™️ necessarily, and this has always felt like a great option for that. send your videos to people you love, make them and watch them back for yourself, and if you want to someday, publish them on your channel to the general public :)
feel like picking up a camera and recording yourself is already challenging, letting an internet company that creates a convenient place for advertisers to run ads and give you a number score for how “good” your video was based on how many ads it ran will not make that less challenging. creating a vlog for your friends eyes only until you make a video you feel like you want to share with the world feels much more inviting / requires much less of a thick skin than the alternative

I’m not going to turn on a light until like 8pm. it helps if you have good window placement but artificial light during the day is a terrible thing. it’s ok if it’s a little dark too.

Some of the best mechanics in a game that ive ever experienced. Also beautiful and poetic.

sitting with yourself for a day is underrated. not on depressed vibes but just like a check in with self. listen to your favorite music. just sit there and think. look at the sky or whatever.
