This new episode is mostly about steemit the "newish" social media platform that pays people to share.
But, I also go into a lil bit of improvised poetry kinda stuff as well near the end of the video..
So.. It's not just about steemit, there's a lil bit of some other stuff too.
Though unfortunately it was pretty overcast and not that visually appealing that day I filmed.
Yet.. Some episodes will certainly be better than others especially in regards to an ever changing visual environment.
Anyways.. I think that's enough for now..
And any feedback is certainly welcome! Especially as I'm still very new to this and learning as I go!
Link to the video will be in the comments below.

Howdy. I'm back with another poem/spoken word/song thingy.
This one has a neat feeling to it in my opinion and I learned something new.
I'm sure this is something that is more commonly understood in some vocal arts like rap, however, I'm a newbie/novice at this and I dunno what I'm doing or what its called or referred to.
But, I found that with the final part of the lyrics I had so many words that it was just barely enough that I could perform it.
I would be running out of breath as it went on and it made my voice sound different... Like there was more emotion involved or something like that.
I like the sound of it, maybe others won't... But, I think it made it sound more passionate.
I also enjoyed the feeling that I got from speaking these words to the point of losing my breath. It felt like exercise, it felt good. I think I want to try to do some more poems in the future like this where it's challenging and feels similar to exercise. :)
Anyways... This poem is sorta like a fun, romantic, adventure one. Peace and bye until next time!
PS... I just listened to this one final time before posting and found a mistake which annoys my OCD, however, I need to learn to allow myself to make mistakes and not spend extreme amounts of time trying to perfect things...
So, I'm just going to let it go. I want to remaster all of these spoken word poems someday anyways when I get more skilled at singing/rapping/performing in general and perhaps use original tracks instead of nocopyright free ones on YouTube.

Hey there. I'm back with another spoken word/song poem thing.
I'm having trouble picking the right beat for this one, there's two I like a lot... A rap beat and a metal beat and I just can't seem to decide.
So... If anyone happens to see this and have a few moments I would appreciate it if anyone who listens might tell me which one they like more?
By the way... Sorry if I suck, lol. I'm still really new to this.
A way that I like to learn certain kinds of new things is to just sort of put in the effort to try and then figure it out as I go.
I have received some positive feedback for previous uploads and when I listen to my work so far I don't think it's horrible, I actually really like most of it a lot.
Yet, I do certainly recognize I'm very new to this and coming from a place more of passion than skill and I have a lot to learn!
I'd like to say this again that I've never taken any courses or classes or read any books on how to rap or sing or anything like that.
I watched a few videos on YouTube and they were mostly vocal exercises, so... I don't know much of anything, lol.
Yet... Some of my favorite artists do spoken word sort of like this and don't sing or rap and I'll try to learn how to sing and rap more in the future as well!
One final thing I want to say is that, there's a few parts in this poem that are negative or use curse words and I really wanna try to cut down on that.
The more I learn about non violent communication the more I reflect and look at how I speak and I want to put out more encouraging, uplifting and positive language than angry, shaming and divisive and all that.
However... I created a lot of poetry with very strong or negative language in the past and I want to still share those and honor that part of me.
Even though I'm changing, I still see some of the beauty in my older ways of thinking and I'm still not even sure what the truth is and may never find out so maybe I was right before and I'm wrong now, I don't know... Either way, I want to honor my older ideas and still share them even if I may not totally 100% agree with how I worded such things in the past.
This one isn't even that bad, though, I definitely have some poems that are much more offensive or belligerent or obnoxious and I was kind of aiming for that to some degree sort of like someone like Eminem is often absurd and shocking and someone like Trump is also strong with his language and many others tend to get more attention for being really peircing or powerful in those kinds of ways.
But... Even if it gets me less attention, I now feel like the peaceful more respectful route is one I want to explore and I think I'm going to work on a full album of sort of positive/inspirational/uplifing kinds of poems as I realize more and more how powerful language c

Hi again to whoever may see this. I hope your day is going super duper. ._.
I just released another spoken word poem song thingy, I've never even shared the text of this one before so it's totally new.
This one is kinda sad in nature, and, to be totally straight forward this song made cry a few times.
I think it's some of the sad lyrics combined with the music that I picked which just has some incredibly ethereal female vocals and it hit me pretty hard. Not sure if it will have a similar affect on anyone else, but, for me this one was/is pretty powerful.
Also, to be clear... I'm not as depressed anymore as I was when I wrote this.
I'm doing a lot better these days!
I just sorta wanna share these poems in spoken words anyways even if I don't totally feel that exact way anymore because they were important times in my life.
And because I feel like someone else out there may resonate with the words and find some kind of value or benefit to hearing such.
I know sometimes when I'm sad that sad music sort of helps me...
As weird as it sounds, it's almost like "relating" to what others go through and knowing you're not alone in certain ways can be helpful.
It's difficult to put into words or explain, though, I think there is something to that and...
I'm going to work on creating more positive and uplifting work in the future...
But, I think these sad or other sorts of controversial poems can be important and have their place too.
One other thing I'd like to mention for context is that I used to be really hard on myself and would oftentimes talk to myself sorta like a drill instructor and punish/toughen myself up with insults. I didn't necessarily 100% believe everything I was saying in the poem, some of it is exaggerated... Though, part of me did believe that at the time. Not fully as I mentioned... But part of me.
Occasionally I still say bad things about myself, but, it's much more rare and I usually flip it and say something good about myself now when that happens and I'm really glad I was able to pull out of that cause it's not a fun place to be.
I've struggled a lot with trying to meet women in a romantic sense over the years and that was something I wanted to experience so much and now... I'm not that worried about it anymore. I've really grown to appreciate my own company. :)
I'm still trying and maybe it'll happen one day, a woman I'm attracted to even showed some interest in me recently and I've been talking to quite a few women on the dating sites and I realize I have a lot of good stuff going for me. I just need to focus on making money and I think everything else will fall into place. So, I am still trying... But... More focused on myself right now and making money and not dwelling on the negative as much anymore. And... As a result I th

Hey everyone. This is a smaller part of a larger project I've been working on. The full movie is over 3 hours right now, but it's going to be a while until I'm done and I wanted to put something out to kinda show what I've been working on. And I know, it's not perfect. You will likely find a couple mistakes, there's a few I'd like to fix but it's just too much trouble for how bad I think the mistakes are.. I think they are pretty minor, and this was never meant to be a "perfect" project..
This was originally just going to be a quick little documentary on all the different 9/11 synchs or coincidences or examples of foreknowledge or whatever you would like to call it. Yet it turned into a monster of a project.
I wouldn't have spent this much time on it if I didn't think there was something important here, and if there isn't some kind of greater story or cover up, it really is bizarre how the "universe" or whatever is putting out these numbers and symbols and graphic depictions before and after the event of 9/11.
There's a lot of different documentaries on 9/11 out there, I wanted to kinda put my own twist to all of this. And as I said.. This is just about 1/3rd of the entire project which still could grow more before I finish it.
Oh and in regards to that, some of this stuff might be a lil more confusing, like the black cube stuff, which I touch on more in the movie elsewhere. And this part here is closer towards the end of the movie, so there's already been a lot of information taken in by this time if you were to have been watching the full movie.
And.. There's a lot more to see, so if you find this mystery to still be something important to you, I hope you check it out and look for the full feature length version in the future. I HOPE to have done before the end of the year.

Hey there peoples. This video is about a new contest I came up with called the Information Finding Championship. It's primarily located on the steem blockchain, however for season 2 I'm trying to open it up to anyone who has access to an email account.
It's essentially a diverse mental competition mixed with RPG elements where you can level up and get items and the winner gets a prize and a trophy and the title of IFC Champion.
If that sounds interesting or fun to you feel free to ask any questions and I will also put some links below where you can learn more, hope to see you participate in some manner! Cheers! :)

The story behind this one is.. I met a friend on Facebook who was into similar politics and I guess he really enjoyed my poetry that I would post from time to time and he offered to do a song for me, and said he recorded this on his phone.. So the quality may not be the greatest, but I really like it and I appreciate whenever anyone brings more life to some of my artwork!
By the way.. I think he deleted his account and I lost track of him.. But.. I think his name was something along the lines of Padacter Roger.. Though I may be remembering wrong and I don't think that was even his real name anyways.. So.. Anyways.. It's a bit of a mystery! And I thank him again for the music.
