Gelato Streaming & Kitten Vibing

Hey there, cosmic friend! Grab your stash and let’s sesh as I take you through the highs, lows, and everything in between of my latest streaming adventures. Let’s vibe and ride side by side.

A Chroma Key Catastrophe

So, OBS Studio has been acting like it’s got a mind of its own. Seriously, why is my orange hoodie disappearing into thin air? It’s like I’ve crossed into another dimension, or beamed straight out of the Enterprise but with a Halloween twist. To fix it, I tried messing around with the filters, I tried adjusting the lights—still no luck. I even got help from my home assistant—“Alexa, turn the lights white.” Nope, I’m still a ghost 😀 . At this point, it feels like I’m chasing shadows, but hey, I’m nothing if not persistent. I’ll figure it out eventually. Maybe it’s time to try a blue screen. A little change of scenery might bring some fresh vibes, and new challenges to explore.

Puff, Puff, Tweak

Between juggling scenes, settings, lights, and trying to keep my kittens off the desk – it’s a whole vibe, right? Earnest and Mocha Swirl are always in the middle of it; they are little furballs of swirling silliness and snuggles, especially when I’m in the zone packing a cone or messing with OBS. But hey, that’s life with kittens, right? Keeps things fun and interesting.

Today, it’s all about Gelato Punch. I’m chain-smoking joints like it’s my job 😀 . This stuff can be a bit harsh but the effect is smooth—like it sneaks up on you, slow and steady, until you’re very, very baked. It’s giving me those creative vibes, like I might just solve all my tech problems and come up with the next great sci-fi idea. I’ll Be satisfied if I finish this blog post. 😉

Ashes and Ideas: Creative Chaos in Motion

Earlier today, I left my rolling tray out—completely uncovered. And, of course, I absentmindedly flicked ashes into it because I forgot to take out the ashtray. Classic move, right? Well, that little mishap inspired me to create a pre-stream checklist. Lesson learned: always cover the rolling tray as soon as you’re done with it. Seriously, it’s a lifesaver, or a . . . weed saver. 😏

Speaking of ashes, here’s another funny realization: I’ve been smoking joints wrong for years. No one ever told me you’re supposed to puff into your mouth first, then inhale. I used to hit it straight into my lungs like I was preparing for battle. It burns, it’s harsh, and you end up inhaling ash smoke. Brutal, right? My partner finally showed me the light—turns out there’s a much smoother way to do it.

Oh, and as if the ash wasn’t enough, I overfilled my grinder earlier. Now I’ve got this awkward amount of herb leftover—not enough to fill another cone, but too much to throw away. Throw away weed?! Who in their right mind would do that? Haha.

But you know, that scattered mess of herb reminds me of my creative process. My thoughts are all over the place—constantly bouncing between ideas, coming at things from different angles. It’s messy, sure, but messy is where the magic happens. It’s where you take all those random sparks and turn them into something wild and unexpected. I’ve got a folder filled with text files—half-baked ideas just waiting to be sorted out. Each one could be a short story, a movie, or maybe even a blog post. 😉

Kittens, Koffee, and Kosmic KThoughts

Life’s a balancing act and I’ve lost my tightrope pole. 😉 I’m streaming, wrangling the kittens, and sipping my coffee between puffs. Who knew circus training was a requirement for streaming? Today has been full of random thoughts—like, how do we really connect in a world where social media feels like one big ad campaign? And as much as I’d love to say Discord is a great place to make friends, it hasn’t been for me. With all the toxicity, I’ve stepped away, keeping the search for genuine connection alive in other ways.

Oh, and you know those random thoughts that sometimes pop up out of nowhere? Gelato Punch has a way of helping me navigate them. It’s like a gentle guide for my mind, easing me through whatever comes up and keeping me in a calm, creative space. With all the creative projects I’ve got going on—streaming, writing, building websites—it helps me stay focused and inspired, even while looking for work. Keeps the good vibes flowing, no matter what’s on my plate.

From Sci-Fi Dreams to Dispensary Schemes

One of today’s deep stoner thoughts: why are dispensary jobs so hard to get? I swear, there’s a waitlist longer than a Doctor Who marathon just to work at one. But for now, I’m chilling with Gelato Punch, dreaming about building the ultimate cannabis database. Something like a mix between Terpene Journey and Leafly, where people can search for any strain ever grown and dive right into all the terpenes, THC content, and effects in one place. Two million five hundred thousand tons of spinning electrons, all alone in the void. It can be a daunting task but it’s our last best hope for weed wisdom. 😉

That’s the dream, right? Maybe I’ll even shoot my shot and see if Tom Bogacz, the owner of Terpen Journey, would consider collaborating on the ultimate cannabis database. Who knows? Maybe he’ll even give me a job. 😉 For now, I’m just vibing with the moments, puffing away, and letting the creativity flow within me and without me.

Wrapping It Up

Alright, friend, that’s all for today’s ramble. Thanks for sticking with me through the ride. Whether you’re lighting one up or just here for the chill vibes, I appreciate you.

Stay lifted and stay cosmic! ✌️
