Good morning, netizens. Happy fucking Tuesday. I’m up, Shawshank is up, the cats are doing cat shit. Pippin is in a window, Podrick is trying to entertain himself and pissing off Shawshank at every turn. It’s sunny as shit today.

I’m getting faster at setting up the bean streams. It usually takes a week or two to figure out the best “order of operations” for setup and breakdown. I’ve got a milk crate full of cables and cloth, that’s most of the gear. Without fail, the most finicky part of the setup is getting the beanbag in a good position. No matter how I have it positioned, that shit settles and I have to readjust regularly. Everyone likes that, because it’s a free look at my ass.

I stayed on the wifi last night and things weren’t too bad, and I made it through a full shift. While I love the blackout curtains, the loss of all my natural light feels almost like I’m rebranding. In my opinion, it looks less “bored milf at home” and more studio-like. In my case, that studio is vaguely public access. I feel like I need a fake fern.

When I logged out, I played with some retro OBS filters to see what they looked like with my watermark and the menu. The CRT option was my favorite, and I absolutely loveloveloved how it looked. Between the graphic glitches I can add and the scan lines, it’s fabulous. Like a commercial for a 900-number back in 1994.

I really need to figure out how to make a BRB screen. I want to be able to take a break and pee and not lose my ranking in the process. I’ll work on that this afternoon.
