As I so eloquently put it yesterday, the video is finished. It will be live on Monday, February 17 at 12:00 PM EST.

And what a relief it is to type that sentence out. 😮‍💨

I really thought I wouldn't finish until next week, but I had that twisted, obsessive focus juice coursing through my brain, which pressed out the finished product. Like I said yesterday, my brain was mush.

I have a few more steps before I should hit the publish button. I want to proof the final video one more time. I already caught a typo in the credits this morning and had to re-export and re-upload. 🫠 I want to prepare a few Shorts to post on the "main" channel.¹ I need to finalize and proof the video description. I need to finish posting the older essays on the new essay channel so everything is in order. Lots of i's to dot and t's to cross.

In the interest of honoring Patreon promises, the video will be live there for paying members on Sunday. I may have zero members, but it is probably best to practice what I promise.

My brain is already turning its gears on to my next essay, which will be much shorter than this one. For sure. Definitely. If it is somehow longer than this one, I will play Balan Wonderworld.

Now if you'll excuse me, I am off to proof this sucker on my TV while I eat leftovers.

Until next time...
