Shutting Down November 1st
🕑 Added 2024-10-11 16:07:44 +0000 UTCHello wonderful people!
First off, I would like to thank all of you for the support. It means a lot when strangers are willing to shell out a couple bucks because they like the things you create.
Of course, being able to financially support myself purely by making stupid videos on the internet would be amazing... but money isn't my motivation. I do it because it's challenging, fun, and creatively fulfilling. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem making money from what I create, but it has got me thinking about the HOW.
We are living in an ever more insidious subscription-based economy, where we are all getting nickel-and-dimed into oblivion. It feels like we are heading toward some sort of Philip K Dick future where you have to pay your own toilet to make it flush. It's death by a thousand cuts.
I also feel I'm not delivering enough value to those who are committing their hard earned currency to the cause. Being a low-volume purveyor of audiovisual goods, my upload schedule doesn't allow for a magnitude of secondary content.
So, after much deliberation, I have chosen to shut down my paid Patreon and YouTube Members programs effective November 1st 2024.
If you wish to financially support my channel, you can send a YouTube Super Thanks, or purchase merch from my store: https://tyronedeise.creator-spring.com. I plan on expanding the designs and items available, as well as selling (and sometimes giving away) original artwork and props used in the videos I make.
Once again, thanks for the support.
I gotta get going... these hams won't steam themselves.

Thanks, you're my OG patron! I am considering having a-la-carte paid early access for some videos... that way it better scales with how busy I am.

Glad I was able to directly support your work even if only for a little while, I'll continue to catch you on YouTube!
