Hello everyone, I have an announcement to make.
I will be stepping back from content creation and will be going on a indefinite hiatus.
I have come to realize that I have a lot of problems and need to improve myself as a person.
This will be the last time you hear from me for a while.

- understanding of this decision.
I own up to my mistake of trying to instigate a mass-flag campaign against the offending account which again, was very VERY stupid on my part.
I ask that you please respect my privacy as I work on how to handle this situation moving forward. (4/4)

Due to this, I also have an announcement - I will be going offline for a brief period until this (hopefully) dies down.
I will still not be returning to Twitter as I fear doing so will cause the offending parties to begin conducting harassment campaigns.
I ask that everyone to please be - (3/4)

- considering how Twitter changed how blocking works some time ago in an update (blocked accounts can view your profile).
The transphobe found this and instigated his followers/mutuals to flag my account for inciting harassment.
To avoid potentially vicious harassment, I closed the account. (2/4)

I suppose I should provide a bit more context as to why I did this.
Last night, I got into an argument with a transphobe, got heated and made a post asking people to block and report the account (of which I will not be naming).
In retrospect, this was a bad move on my part, especially - (1/4)

Hey all.
Due to some recent drama on Twitter, I have decided for the time being to deactivate my Twitter account for an indefinite period of time.
If you see anyone on there in future with my name or user handle - please note that is not me as I have no plans to return to Twitter anytime soon.

Query time.
I know a lot of people enjoy my videos and I am grateful for it, but in the interest of making the best content I possibly can, I'd like to ask the following:
What do you NOT like about my videos and what would you recommend I do to avoid content stagnation?

Men, these are the facts as I understand them.
One: I am not afraid of no ghosts!
Two: I am scared, you maggots!
Dismissed!

Been working on a new project as of late - it's another spooky project and I've been tinkering with the in-game lighting for this one.
Should make the nighttime scenes extra spooky!
Should have it out in early-to-mid June, so watch this space!

Happy Easter, all!
Apologies for the lack of any updates regarding videos - my motivation has been flip-flopping all over the place as of late.
I am working on a smaller video and I hope to have it out sometime in May before focusing on the Summer project.
Cheerio!

For my Bluesky-only peeps, a new video is in the works!
It'll be another S2 styled vid, and will be based off of the elusive canned episode: The Missing Coach (or Hullo Twins going by leaks)
Here's a snippet from the opening sequence I filmed two days ago - very happy with how it came out!

Posted this back on Twitter, but for my Bluesky peeps - you'll be happy to know that Topham has new faces in the works!
Here is a batch of faces straight from S2 - more faces will be made soon, so stay tuned for updates!

Nope - it was actually just the in-game post-processing settings with some additional contrast and color correction tweaking during the editing stages.

Tell me, doctor - where are we going this time?
Is this the fifties, or nineteen ninety-nine?
