So here's how the story went,
Once "Apocalypses" hit my channel back in 2016, I realized this topic of conversation was going to become an evermore difficult avenue of revenue. I was already lazy enough and didn't want to edit my videos or thumbnails. I enjoyed, "RAW" content - truly - but was also lazy and [common theme] didn't want to work hard. I wanted like to be "effortless", like many new agey folks think is possible.

The Year I posted "16 Minutes of LSD" Was my first year on my own; I had dwindling funds while living out of my car. For the summer I camped at Mt. Shasta, CA. It was a grand ole time, and I'll remember it forever.

After that year, I went back home to Minnesota for the winter and met a girl. We decided to go to Oregon and live on a commune. Admittedly, I was a sweet boy, but a bad boyfriend. We all have our reasonings, but fact of the matter is that I didn't put in the work to sustain that relationship. She was one of the sweetest and most supportive women I may ever know. We broke up.

Come 2018/19, my YouTube videos connected me with some folks out in California and I ended up being apart of a DMT retreat that launched me into my next phase in life. Still homeless, barely being able to feed myself and would run out of money every month. [yes, out of my choice. And yes, I didn't want to work a typical job] I stayed in a parking lot in Sebastopol, CA. "Peace Town" was its nickname. I got a spa membership for $100/month and that was how I showered, and... welp.. enjoyed a fair amount of LSD and Mushrooms in their wet sauna. It was epic. S/O to the Dhyana Center. Thank you for the affordability and services.

Eventually, from the grace of the Universe, myself and a family crossed paths who had an outdoor organic cannabis farm. [one of my dreams!] I helped harvest the fall of 2019, and came back fulltime in 2020. Memories I will cherish forever - as they became family to me during the heat of covid. I also experienced the greatest heartbreak I have ever felt with someone who I thought would be the mother of my children. We dreamt big, and fast; only for her to suddenly leave and become silent. It hurt. ...Such is life.

Year 2021-2022 I worked full time at Jimmy Johns with one of my best friends; whom his mother owned the store. It was a "job", but I enjoyed being apart of a team, doing difficult things, and serving the community. I became very good at the job, but realized I wasn't going to make a life out of it. However, that grew my confidence that I could make it in this world. So my final year at Jimmy Johns, I worked 4 days a week while going to powerline school the other 3 days a week. About 55 hours of obligations every week, and mostly 7 days a week. I proved to myself that I could do it. I was voted as the Student Senate President, did well, and found 2 union jobs before school ended. I now work for a electrical testing company where we service and test medium and high voltage equipment. Great money, great benefits, and a career if I want it. We work all around the country for major industry, pipelines, and renewable energy companies. One thing I like is getting backdoor access into all these places and seeing the vital hearts within they systems.

And of course, ALWAYS RIPPIN' GUITAR!

Cheers! Have fun with life, do our best, and just keep goin! That's all we can do!
