So, my boss who was stepping down decided to extend it for several weeks, but still made it clear he was stepping down

again, my name was thrown around a few times

but this is what I did instead, I brought in a guy who had a store like 4 hours away, but he doesn't want to live in a city anymore

yea, this guy is MY replacement instead. And yea sure enough I was like, 2 weeks.

He got promoted

aaaaaand they pulled this on me. They pretty much begged me to stay, just take a demotion ...and not give me any hours. but they just still wanted me on the payroll. I....don't know why. But I figured eh, I'll still have a discount, so I'll do it

but yea, I got hours so they played me. BUT, I gotta admit, it ...feels pretty good not to be in charge of that shit anymore.

So, I brought that guy in because I didn't want to leave my people hanging, right? This new guy got rid of everyone anyways. Oooooof. Well, he kinda gave them a choice, morale was at an all time low and they were already pissed at the company too, and...I LIKE to think they didn't want to be in a position where they weren't under me lol. so they just left. He got some other people now hes training (and I am too >_>)

and yea, hes doing alot of shit I don't approve of, but ...whatever, its not on me anymore.

I have a feeling my hours are gonna die down once his people are up to speed

Its a new era at my store. I've always said, I legit tried to make my store really cool and friendly. I hear you guys, I hear the stories on the internet, I tried not to do that stuff. but man, everything I built is gone. Thats corporate for ya though

on the other side of things, I HAVE done some commissions on twitter! I haven't launched it yet, but people have DM'd me asking and I'm like, sure why not each time.

at least right now, I'll have some guaranteed money coming since I'm still working. and I DO have a nest egg I'm sitting on too

things are weird and scary, but I hope some good stuff happens my way

Actually, back when I wasn't so jaded and cynical and afraid of change, I would frequent various boards instead of just this one

the Square board started talking about how if you sign up at this one DQ website, they'll send you a free Demo disc of DQVIII

I did that

On stream I concluded that Pyramid Head is probably a beginner's trap to start, but as the game goes on, he will become less and less useful. Both in a match AND as the game itself gets older

I figured the longer the match is, the more power ups the players have collected and they will literally run circles around him and be able to lay more bombs, since PH can't collect power ups and has pitiful stats

and the older the game is, the more people will know about his ability, so they will avoid him at all costs or hell, try to take him out first

only RIGHT NOW is the most decent time to use him, but he will become obsolete

in the same match I said all of this, I got 2nd place with him

>_>

I don't read comics but I've seen the Justice League Cartoon and all of the other shows, so I am familiar with the mythos of alot of these characters

but this was exciting because I don't think Superboy was ever covered in these kinds of shows, huh?

So I was very interested

the first season was standard fare
Oh geez you guise! Teenagers with hormones

oh noes its time to the dance while maintaining a secret life!

Status Quo stuff

but MAN, the show PRETTY MUCH forgets everything come season 2

Since this show is basically Teen Titans without saying it, my biggest hope was the addition of Blue Beetle And Static

MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN Did I GET BLUE BEETLE!

Static was still sidelined, and it sucked he was shoved to the side, but at least he joined the team at the end

The show just has a weird feeling. Its sorta...not whole sometimes? Everything is moving and the characters are being shuffled around, it just didn't feel like it was anchored. at least to me. I know the show does have a Status Quo, but it just feels like its always changing, so does that make it not one?

Season 1 and 2 are just so different and well, as corny as it is, S1 was nice because of the familiarity and themes

S2 was great, don't get me wrong

so yea, monkey paw time

Blue Beetle and Static are on the same team now
SWEET
Status Quo is coming back
YES

.....BB and Static are HELLA sidelined
and lets make way for Halo, Forager, and Prince Zuko!

The show was like "Oh..you wanted an electric black guy? Well fuck you heres Black Lightning"

It felt like season 3 was actively being a dick to me

but then

CYBORG

BOOYA
and One of his team mates...I THINK is Vibe. SWEET

YES

BRING IT

but...ehhhhh

The season just didn't do it for me. The plot was pretty damn crazy, I'll give you that.
Beast Boy going one on one with Granny was surprisingly cool
but it felt like either they were focusing on the "wrong" things (subjective I know)
or it felt like there was too much missing
I would've liked to see more of what was going on with "Batman Inc" honestly. There was alot of heroes there I didn't recognize

but like I said, make way for Bug Man
okay, I'm being hard on them, they were interesting, but I just..didn't want them!

Wahh wahh wahh

EVEN AT THE END, When the Outsiders were the only hope left, ONLY CYBORG WENT TO SPACE. Oh and "Static was unavailable"

Ughhhh

considering this Season was the big comeback, I just didn't like the direction

Give me BB, Static, Cyborg, and Vibe as their own team

I'm already halfway to my next check but I also stepped up and improved a bunch of things recently too. If I had done these things much sooner, I probably would've gotten my first payment way earlier (and yes, took 8 months to get my first check, I stream on and off)

but yea, I'll never say "You will see instant success if you do these things" either

It STILL might not work anyways.

this is like playing guitar on the side of the street and collecting change from passerbyers . You gotta just like putting on a show, you seriously don't do it for the pennies

BUUUUUUUUUUUUT, if you're gonna be doing your hobby ANYWAYS, YOU MAY AS WELL be collecting those pennies, ya know? :D

well, I recently got my first twitch check and I'm half way to getting my next already so I can give some advice

While there IS a curve, its not that is hard, but its just..foreign? you'll have to learn the program and how to use it. I just BARELY got around to using the more advanced stuff so no worries, you can still stream and learn along the way, you don't have to do it all at once. you can easily have someone show you the ropes too

I use a program called OBS studio
Streamlabs apparently sucks and uses too much CPU. Yea, theres always gonna be people that swear by it like Tarvould, but I can vouch its a good program

but the most important thing is the mindset. If you're thinking you're gonna be the next hotshot streamer, thats probably not gonna be a good idea. I've seen many people legit leave their jobs for this stuff and fail. Its like saying "I'm gonna be in the NBA!" when you're 30 and have no previous basketball skill. This ain't no goofy disney movie, its probably not gonna happen, ya know? I think being a financially successful streamer usually means you need something ELSE going on too. Like you being a youtuber or something. I feel like these people make both fanbases feed into each other (Youtube audience watches the stream and streamers go to the youtube channel). JUST being a streamer and wanting to make it, theres too much going against you.

This definitely just needs to be a hobby. and one of which doesn't cause you stress. You CAN make a schedule but its generally not a good idea for like, mental health. Just jump on when you can. at LEAST try to be consistent with your times if you can. but yea, people can still find your VODs and see you that way too

and one important thing to do is to have a layout. Even I didn't get one until recently. You'd THINK people would be just interested in the game and would just WANT the game displayed only, but people are legit gonna be interested in you more and will come back for you. THATS the audience you want. So you gotta have nice stuff there for them.

You're worried you might be boring but again, thats just putting stress on yourself. Just be you. I will at least say the only thing you SHOULD be mindful of is don't be droning. don't be learning back just barely talking or something. Put some pep in your step, and try to explain your thought process of actions during the gameplay. If you get reminded of a story or something interesting pops in your head, go and and recite it. Be ready to engage viewers if they start talking to you, welcome them

etc

One last thing I can think of is have a social media for this stuff. Twitter, Discord, etc. Give a way for people to interact with you off stream.

Okay
I GUESS I missed that but

The only way to get access to that area was getting the ride through a sentient water animal

I don't remember Jack doing that at all (I'm willing to admit maybe I'm remembering the circumstances incorrectly, I DID binge all of the episodes so maybe they're blurring together )

and what a way to fucking go. He seemed to work for a higher power or soemthing. He clearly knew more than he let on. Who put him there? Why is he so dedicated to this? How did he already know Jack? How was he so powerful?
And yea, its just a waste from a plot point of view AND a waste of a potential ally
but it was just reduced to some throwaway reference

and

well
