I swear if I wasn't so independent minded I'd have never done anything in my life!
FUCK YEA upgrade that SHIT who the hell wants to use old dusty old musty old crusty old assline-imprinted-in fucking furniture you fucking GO GIRL. I know people who change their shit just for something to fucking DO ! LOL Had to get rid of the cheap minded people awhile ago. Too bad I'm also 1 of them. I gotta work on it still... it came from my family and it's annoying AF to hear they feel something that is $5 is a 'rip off. '
I'm naturally a pessimist too. I'm not complaining about it or anything but I am silently waiting for the news of covid 20,21, 22... I dont see an end... BUT I gotta slap myself and not let that stop me from my goals

Thank you, I really needed to hear that :)
It's still just the start of the year, no matter what's happening 'out there' we can do a lot internally, both in our immediate environments and in our minds. I just downloaded an app for Zazen the original Zen form of meditation. Gonna commit 30 mins a day to it and learn to stay in the present!

This. I'm already seeing "doom and gloom" Facebook posts about how 2021 is gonna be a shitty year, and I just refuse to think like that. Yeah, I know that shitshow in D.C. was a few days ago. We're also about to get a new president in ten days. My son turns 18 and graduates high school this year. Too much doom and gloom online and on the news, which is why I don't really watch the news (though I WILL be watching the inauguration, and had decided to keep my pretty, white Christmas tree up for that day).
Yeah for me it was more personal stuff that’s happened rather than what’s occurring in the news or even here in the UK
But, I’m trying to focus on the positives and looking at all the positive things happening in my life each week, it’s hard sometimes but using the skills I learnt in therapy is helping not get sucked into a hole of despair lol

Same! Well, 2020 was a good year for me personally so I'm not personally dreading 2021, but with camming Jan-March is usually my slower time but this year I'm like NOPE. It's gonna be just as good as the rest of the year. :meditate:

Went to a park earlier and on the drive home I saw a truck flying not one but *two* huge confederate flags. Fuck these hateful degenerates. Idk how they have the courage to drive around in my 50% black city, not to mention I live in a northern free state.

They were literally encouraged by Trump (and Brexit before that). Racism (and all forms of hate) are never far from the surface. We rely on society being in generally good order to keep the crazy at bay. In times of unrest and fear there is a greater swing towards authoritarianism and the fear manifests as acts and words of hate :(

I watched it the other night. The entire time I kept thinking...he we go! Cue the evangelicals and faux woke twitter coming to save all the filthy misguided heauxs. But on the other hand it could slow down the herd.
Without spoilers, its about a cammer on a token site and her delusional regular. It shows what can happen when models get too comfy and forget how crazy some of these guys can be. Also it covers taboo fantasies and blurred lines.

No, I cancelled my Netflix subscription (I like Hulu better). I rented it on Amazon Prime for $2.99. It was good, but tbh I liked the Russell Crowe movie 'Unhinged' way more.

Is it worth buying the Logitech Brio cam even if I don't use the OBS/encoder option on MyFreeCams (and choose to use the WebRTC instead)? I look amazing when broadcasting on ManyVids Live, but on MFC I'm looking a tad yellow now. :/ If I move much closer to the computer, it looks fine. But when sitting at the normal distance away from the computer, I look a little yellow. That's probably because I'm using the WebRTC instead of the OBS. I just really don't wanna use OBS. I pull my hair out every time I attempt to use a cam site's OBS/encoder.
Gonna post this question in the MFC thread too.

That yellow hue could be from your lighting and the wall color. What kind of lighting are you using and what color are your walls?

My walls are white, and I have one of those 5-bulb floor lamps that has three settings. The moment I get off cam for the night, the first thing I do is turn down (or turn off) that bright-ass lamp and take my wig off. Lol. I've used these 5-bulb floor lamps for years, and this yellow hue thing was never an issue before. And this isn't even a problem on ManyVids Live.

I have, however, been sitting on the floor recently, leaning against my dark blue airbed. Maybe that's why? Tonight I'll go back to actually sitting ON the airbed (rather than having it behind me), and see if that makes any difference.

I used those lamps for years! I had one with pink shades and the other in blue shades. I found that using daylight bulbs with pink lamps gave me the best results. Also I cover walls that have the slightest off-white tent to them with fabric, etc. to brighten my stream.

Okay, so this is interesting! Regarding the yellow hue issue...I wanted to see if it'd do the same thing on ManyVids Live on my newer laptop (The laptop I just bought last month). Yup, still a yellow hue. Then I decided to pull out my older laptop (The one I bought in February of 2020) to see how my webcam looks on there on ManyVids and MyFreeCams. On the older laptop my video looks AMAZING! Wtf.
It's really odd because the whole point of me buying this second laptop was so that I could broadcast on MFC and MV Live at the same time with the laptops side-by-side, using two different webcams. Well shit...I'm not gonna be using this new laptop AT ALL for broadcasting then. I'll use it for everything else.
When I get my stimulus, I may get the Logitech Brio because my Logitech C920 has just started doing this shit where my webcam video will freeze up. AmberCutie was just telling me that a problem with the older Logitech webcams is that the cable eventually gets loose inside of the cam body, and easily disconnects like that. She said it's happened with a few of her Logitech 9000s.

Even as far as "I'm being punked" but I also have to remember I watched her first hand ignore her phone when I was there like it didnt even exist. Not everyone is attached to their phone like I am haha. Even my dad can go hours before seeing a text I've sent him. But damn my anxiety!

Do y'all ever go back and read really old threads on here for old times' sake? :) I was also remembering when I kept signing up for sites via SexyJobs dot com, and kept accidentally signing up through studios. Lol. That time I accidentally signed up for a Webcams dot com studio, and kept waiting for that dude Jay to send me my $100 pay. Lol. Btw, I just found out today that Webcams dot com still exist (I thought the site was gone), and it's powered by My Dirty Hobby.
I remember that some of us got stuck in that Internet Modeling agreement, and were trying to figure out how to get out of it. I think Boleyn Models came to the rescue with that!

It’s I’m so frustrated. I’m a really good entertainer, but these guys take advantage in free chat and don’t tip me. They just think they can enjoy free entertainment. Ugh. Reminds me of the cheapskates that would watch stage for free. Do I really have to beg for tips? Guys complain when we aren’t upbeat and friendly, but then they take advantage of us if we aren’t bitches. I don’t want to be a bitch, but I have to get you to respect me and my time. This is a cam site. Give us money and then we will act like happy sluts. I’m so tired of dealing with lames.
Thanks need to vent.
I think learned all I can do is log on and hope I get some good customers. Doesn’t seem to matter what I do personally. Guys that want to buy will buy, and there’s no “selling” to cheapskates or freeloaders-which there are a lot!!! Best strategy is to be generally pleasant, but not too personal in free chat.

2) You cannot teach customers to act right by having them pay you more money
3) You cannot tell customers "This isn't Burger Kind and NO you cannot have it YOUR WAY :/

Positivity doesnt have to be the direct opposite of negativity. One is definitely easier to obtain depending on the person. Thinking in binary terms can create falsehoods that can cause a break down in communication. But I know one thing for certain and thats Trey Songz is...

I watched that video on TMZ. So embarrassing. It's always assault or gun charges with rappers it feels like? I'm hoping the next one does something weird as a charge like "caught humping a bench in public" hahaha.
I got kicked out of an Angels game for underage drinking way back when because someone of age bought me a drink and they were writing my name down on a card "What's your name?" I said it but they heard "Rhianna" and let them have that name LOL.

I'm curious to know if Hulu would actually allow me to give myself a fake "real name" on my account. My high tipper and I might be using the Hulu Watch Party feature next week, and I don't want any of these cam guys even knowing the first initial of my real name (Hulu Watch Party shows the other viewer/s your first initial). But I feel like Hulu is gonna automatically assign me the first initial of whatever name I have on my debit card...which is obviously my real name. :/

I mean trey songz has a history of acting like a selfish asshole. After hearing about some of the accusations, I couldn’t enjoy his presence on a playlist. It’s more so the same men acting like children all the time, many rappers do keep a fairly lowkey for how famous they are. Torey Lanez and Future come to mind right away as little fuckbois approaching midlife.

I'm gonna finish this Kevin Bacon 'Hollow Man' movie on Hulu, and then I'm gonna test this out to see if I can change the name on my account.
If not, I might do what you suggested...or just do a custom pic set for him + fan sign or something. He'll be alright either way. :)
EDIT: Okay, I just tried it out, and it did let me change my profile name, and so I have a different first initial showing when I initiate the 'Watch Party' feature. :)

Info for anyone interested. Got the second vaccine dose on Sunday--13 hours later had some chills and nausea and vomited a little (felt better after). Next day just felt like general crap. Day after and I'm back to normal. The struggle didn't last for too long and I'd say it was worth it! People I know who've had it done ranged from mildly sore arm to chills/muscle aches/headaches.

I'M SO EXCITED THIS MORNING! I just got word I was approved for my new apartment and I couldn't be happier. I've been in a small town that I hate and my new place is in a metro area I've been wanting to live in for about 1.5 years! Dreams do come true! The "proof of income" was tricky since I have income from about 9 different websites and daily pay with Boleyn agency but I sent screenshots of all my payouts along with bank statements to back it up and they were fine with that. I blocked out "cam info" and said it was "client info" to the landlord and they were a ok with it. I also get 1 GIG internet fiber so super excited. For me it's also really cheap. Nice 1 bedroom with built in "camming desk"...lol for only $730. I pay about 1300 where I"m at now for less than that. Here's to cheap living! I just had to vent...

Thank you! A 3 bedroom seems HUUUUGGGGEEEEE to me. Although I could def do something with it all. My new place is a big 700 sq ft 1 bedroom. The dining room is huge with a built in desk in it that i'll use as my office/cam studio. It has a breakfast bar I'll use to eat at. It's just me at home anyways. I could use a 2 bedroom easy but they didn't have any available. I'm good at using what space I have. I lost everything I owned in the CA Camp Fire and I literally have been in a hotel/extended stay for almost 10 months. Having my own place again is heaven. I'll have to buy everything from the ground up but I have my health, my laptop camming stuff and my pets...that's all I really need. I can buy everything else. It just shows what's really important in life...FAST INTERNET...LOLOLOL.
Question: why are you saving to "pay off" a 1 bedroom apt. Are u just waiting for your lease to end or to break the lease? I was just curious.

Question: why are you saving to "pay off" a 1 bedroom apt. Are u just waiting for your lease to end or to break the lease? I was just curious.
I am breaking the lease. I got a 20 years lease, back in 2017. The apartament was $85k, I had a $25k down payment (I also got a $15k loan for renovations, it was on 5 years only, so I have 1 more year and I am done with it), but I decided I won't pay for 20 years, because of the high interest. If I wait to pay for 20 years, I end up giving back $90k. But if I pay more months at once, the bank doesn't take any interest, so I end up paying less and quicker. So, I hope in 1-2 years to end it, sell this apartament and use it as a down payment for a 3 bedroom. Rinse and repeat with the loan :))
Well, it was ok so far, but I also have a partner, he has been working from home for almost 2 years now and we kinda got cramped. I also hate going to gym, I only work out from home and the lack of space is obvious now. He has his desk in the living room, I have mine in the bedroom and after 10 years of living in 1 bedroom apartaments, it gets mentally tiring to relax or sleep in the same room you're working. I totally need my own camming and clip filming space, keeping all my stuff there, instead of having everything spread around the house. When I get out of the room, all the energy and mood from work remains there. We also think it's time for having a baby, so, the extra bedroom will be for that haha :)))
Ok, our secret dream is to get a 5 bedroom apartament, but that would be a huge amount. On the other hand, we wanna keep it for at least 10 years (or even forever, why not, depends if we move somehwere else. We live in a pretty secure and high end area of the city, so I don't think I wanna move out of here to soon. Also, the countryside house, is only 25 min away from this area, where we live, we have the highway right away), he also needs a home office, so it would be ok to struggle a little. But for now, we focus on paying this one, because it's gonna be the down payment for the next home. Wich will probably have to be renovated (already renovated apartaments are overpriced here, so I prefer to buy a dump and renovate it myself).
I take it you're single, so you will definately be ok in a 1 bedroom apartament. No need to rush, you can always sell and get something bigger in a few years. It's important that it's your home. It felt amazing when I got this apartament and decorated the way I wanted and I knew I can lock the door and leave the house and won't have anyone coming around, when I am not there. Or having to ask for permission to drill the walls or change the furniture :))

I lost everything I owned in the CA Camp Fire and I literally have been in a hotel/extended stay for almost 10 months. Having my own place again is heaven. I'll have to buy everything from the ground up but I have my health, my laptop camming stuff and my pets...that's all I really need. I can buy everything else. It just shows what's really important in life...FAST INTERNET...LOLOLOL.
Question: why are you saving to "pay off" a 1 bedroom apt. Are u just waiting for your lease to end or to break the lease? I was just curious.
Yaaayyy, congratulations on the apartment!!! :)
I lived in an Extended Stay hotel for a month and a half, and even with the Extended Stay Perks savings...the amount you end up paying monthly + the crazy amount of tax added on is INSANE. And some of the people living there totally ignored the fact that it's a "non-smoking hotel." And then when paying the monthly rate for the room, it'd show up TWICE as a pending charge (So it appeared as though you were double-charged, even though you really weren't). So you couldn't even have access to that other money, because you had to wait a few days for that second "pending charge" to disappear. That drove me crazy.
CONGRATS again! Having your own place is amazing!

My Grandmother just died in hospice. She was hospitalized Saturday night with covid. On Monday we all said our goodbyes on zoom. I hadnt been able to give her a hug for at least a year because of the quarantine at her nursing home. Im starting to feel so angry and I dont want that.

I am so sorry for your loss. And I totally understand your frustration and pain, my grandma is pretty old and I expect her to pass any time (she is ok now, but with elders, you never know when something hits and they can't recover, like it was with my grandpa. Was super healthy and ok, he got an ugly cold, his lungs got affected instantly and he died in less than a week... that was in 2012) and I can't even think how painful it would be, to not be close, when things go down.
I really wish you strenght to get trough this delicate time. Other words are useless right now.
