a la carte

Good morning, and oh look, it’s fucking Wednesday. I woke up some time between 5 and 6am, as usual. I’m pretty sure I was dreaming, which is nothing short of REALLY FUCKING WEIRD™. As far as I can remember, as long as I’m regularly toking, I don’t really dream; if I do, I definitely don’t remember them. For whatever reason, I’ve been waking up from dreams lately. Thankfully, none have been as bad as the nightmare I had about Chaucer last month. Good or bad, I’d be happier if they stopped and I could sleep.

I played some Just Dance yesterday afternoon, getting through 8 songs before the game hung up. Taking the hint, I popped some headphones in and worked on smutgoblin things. First, I uploaded and scheduled a batch of the nun nonsense I made last week. I opted to push out the already scheduled less-Halloweenish stuff because I didn’t have all that much blasphemy to post. Once I finished scheduling posts, I moved on to something that’s been in need of an update: my menu.

Content creators are a bit mixed when it comes to menus, from what I’ve seen. Opinions range from “you need a menu” to “you can make more if you keep your prices hidden”. I understand the logic from both sides. Having a menu makes it abundantly obvious a creator offers custom content. Most creators agree that if you do have one, it’s better to design with a “less is more” look. This isn’t The Cheesecake Factory, you don’t need to put everything on the menu. You’re overloaded with choices and prices, the average horned-up dude isn’t going to read all that. On the other hand, “visible” prices can make buyers think a creator is nickel and diming them on stuff. I look at mine like the Pirate’s Code –

it’s whatever I say it is at that point. I keep mine pretty simple, but not as spartan as some do. Starting prices, pricing for some basic “upgrades”. Canva FTW.

Shawshank is home today, so we’re going out for a little while. We’re making the drive out to BiggerTown today, because they have a thrift store. And thrift shops at Halloween are fucking great.
