You People Are Insane And I Love You

I don't know how the last 24 hours has happened but it's been incredible seeing so many new members here. Thank you! I guess this is what happens when I put out a challenge. I've got shoutouts to do all the way to the 18th now and I'm beginning to panic because, 1, I like giving one shoutout per video so everyone has THEIR video, and 2, I haven'...

A few free Steam games for whoever gets them first

Some extras from my recent Humble Bundle for whoever gets them first. These are region locked and may not work if you're not in the United States.

Give me DALL·E mini Prompts

I'm sure everyone has seen memes of the image generator mentioned in the title. I'd like to have some fun with it, but I think it would be more fun if you guys would help me out. So please post some suggestions for prompts I can put into the generator. Things like "Optimus Prime at Starbucks" or "Spongebob as a Transformer". Simple, two topic th...

Policy Change

So in the past whenever someone signed up to the Patreon campaign I would immediately shout them out in a show of good faith, but it's becoming clear I've had people joining and cancelling before the 1st just to hear their name on a video. So from here on out any shoutouts and names added to the credits will only be after the 1st of the month pr...

There Is No Video BTS Info

So I thought I'd share a bit of what went into my April Fool's video. First, as many in the comments suggested, it was inspired by There Is No Game. I wanted to see how far I could push the same joke that there was no video, so most of the video was entirely improvised. The only parts I planned for was the fake phone call and the visit at the do...

Who In The Backlog Gets Reviewed?

Thanks to my long hiatus, there's a lot of toys out there that went by without review. So here are just a few of the options, winner gets reviewed first!

Who's Up For Game Nights?

I've been thinking of adding something to the Patreon rewards, likely at the $5 level, which would be participation in game nights when I stream. Thinking Among Us, Jackbox, things that are easy to play together or can be done over screen share. This would be on Discord and scheduled so Patrons have the chance to join in. If you'd be up for it o...

Prop Making Time

Just thought I'd post a bit of what I'm throwing together. I want to do as much new stuff for the channel as I can with practical effects, so a Borg Sphere becomes my personal Cybertron.

Random's Getting A Makeover

Probably going to share this on Twitter as well, but I wanted to include some more info here. The above intro, like previous Random intros, will have variations, though a lot more elements will change with these and it may be over a month before you see the same intro twice. With the new intro is also going to be an altered outro screen with a s...

Just Not My Month

So as a return to getting my channel up to speed again, some road blocks were hit. What was supposed to be eight reviews this month ended up being three with one posted here as an exclusive, though I did get my stream and archive up as well. Unfortunately that's still not up to what I promised and if anyone wants to hold that against me, that's ...

Opening LOTS of BotBots! Reaction Version

Since I stumbled into a ton of cheap BotBots at Walmart, I thought I'd shred them open on camera, cause why not? But if you're reading this you get the extended, almost-uncut version that includes the reactions to what I got! Usually videos like this are exclusive to $5 and up patrons, but it's been a while, and it's mostly an extended version, ...

Overhaul Coming Soon

Hello everyone! Just thought I'd give a heads up, for 2019 I'll be completely redoing the Patreon campaign to hopefully attract more support. You won't be losing any access you have now, but there will be a lot more projects to fund and some fun new things for you guys soon.

Updates Coming Soon, This Month's Project

So as some might have seen, I've had to move streaming nights to Twitch due to poor, borderline unusable service with YouTube as of late. It's not a move I wanted to make, but to keep it going, I've been forced to do it. This means one of my milestones is no longer relevant, and obviously I shot too high on that to begin with. Once I get the time t...

Thursday's Stream: The Emerald Spire

For anyone that comes to the live streams Tuesdays and Thursdays, the next one is going to be special. It's a return to Minecraft with a build called the Emerald Spire (or the Tower of Brolina). 32 identical rooms, 21 floors, 11 basements, from the floor of the world to the ceiling, the tallest it could be made. 30 rooms still need to be decorated ...

Rough Start For 2016

Hope everyone's year has gone better than it has here. Just so everyone here has the updates, yeah, the last couple months haven't been fun. Aside from a week of being too sick to get things done, family drama cropped up. My grandmother's been in the hospital twice so far, once for respiratory distress from pneumonia, another for dehydration which ...

November Update

Hard to keep up with things here with everything going on, sorry for that! November is traditionally my busiest month, aside from the usual grind, we have the writing and most of the filming for Toycember to do, and now on top of that, something pretty big. In one week's time, I'll be joined by Matt Burkett, the former Apollo Z Hack, for some colla...

TJ TV is coming back!

Hey everyone! So technically this is exclusive video content, but this I'll give to everyone. I'm in the process of uploading TJ TV to Dailymotion where I should be able to continue the series. The site is getting a needed makeover so in the meantime, I'm leaving my patrons the link to rewatch the episodes up now. I'll be uploading them slow since ...

Streaming?

So I'm giving a lot of thought to working in the occasional game stream into my rotation, so I'm giving you guys a say in what they might be. Want to see retro games or modern? Kid friendly or shooters? Keep in mind I dont have a capture card so it's whatever I can emulate or whatever might be on Steam. Looking for any input here so I can make it a...

Updating Things!

Hey guys. I know I've been putting off these posts, I'll try to be more active here going forward. First off, thank you to everyone who's been sticking around. I know the total's been going down, but I sincerely appreciate everyone still willing to help me out, no matter what the contribution is. It really does help and makes important differences ...

A friend of mine told me lately he wanted to start doing videos for toys and video games, but he was hesitant to risk alienating or damaging the audience he has for his existing work, thinking if they didn't like his opinion on one thing, they wouldn't come to him for another. Leaving the comfort zone is tricky, but artistically, I always feel like...

So apparently someone thought it was hilarious to make a bunch of fake e-mail accounts to artificially inflate the pledge total. I have no idea how this is funny, but when 4 enormous pledges come in on the same evening, from the same free e-mail domain, with 4 addresses formatted the exact same way, and all just short of Patreon's $100 escrow limit...

Hello everyone! Popping in for an all around update. First off, thank you to everyone sticking around and supporting my efforts, I will make sure not to let you guys down. As of today, all special thanks credits from rewards have been granted, if you haven't seen your name and your reward level is high enough, make sure your contribution processed...

IMPORTANT UPDATE: For all Patreons, here's how the last 48 hours have gone. When my original video was recorded, and the reason I decided to use Patreon to begin with, was because I thought my dad was close to losing his job, meaning not nearly enough income in the house to pay for everything, and not enough time for me to find work instead. It was...

Alright, so I just got the word that things might not be a dire around here as I feared. Not sure yet, I'll know more later this week. If things turn out well, that might change the conditions of this Patreon. I'll keep you informed and might address it in video this weekend once I know for sure.
