breaking news: boy beaten to death by a drum mallet for unauthorised blepping

I should address the fact that I’ve been really bad at keeping up with my tumblr for the last while. Sorry about that! Allow me to give a quick update ^^

So I’ve finally moved into my new home about two weeks ago, and I’m still in the process of settling in. As you guys can see, I am back in the swing of making videos again, but it will still be a little while until everything is fully sorted out. I’m going to be doing tons of things with my room/office in order to make it the best recording space possible. I’m just waiting for my acoustic foam panels (”soundproofing”) to come in the mail, and then once those are set up, I’ll be putting up my posters and lights to make the rest of the room pretty again! It’s been a long while since I’ve recorded in a room that actually looks cool, so I’m really stoked about finally having that back. This will probably be done around Tuesday or Wednesday.

For those of you who saw my little update vlog thingy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_7fHKgaRMQ), you know I was attempting to get a pass for PAX West, which is happening in Seattle in a couple weeks. While I wasn’t able to get a pass, there is still a good chance that I may be attending, but I’m not giving any official say until I know for sure!

I’ve been waiting to put out RobertIDK merch for a super long time now, and I’m sorry that it’s taken me so long! I have zero experience in selling things online and/or setting up any sort of merchandise system whatsoever, so I’ve been putting it off to an extent, sorry about that. I need to contact an artist, have them create designs for me, create an online store with proper payment info, ensure that the designs actually come out well on the final products, etc etc. I know that there’s a high demand for merch, so I just want to make sure that the stuff I put out doesn’t suck. Also, in case you weren’t aware, I’m incredibly lazy with setting up payment info online. Like, I literally have been doing Youtube for a year and I haven’t even bothered to claim any of the money that my videos have made. Obviously that’s going to have to change before I wind up homeless, but I’ve always wanted to avoid being motivated by potential money to do what I love to do.

I constantly feel very lucky to have the kind of support that you guys have been showing me over the last while. As someone who’s never had the greatest self-esteem, I tend to undervalue the worth of myself and my work to other people, and I usually am never proud of things that I do until they are in the past. Anyways, that’s a topic for a video in itself. I’d just like to say thanks for getting excited about the things that I do, and being a more positive community than I could ever ask for. There’s so much negativity in the online world these days, so I’m extremely happy knowing that we don’t contribute to that.
