Death is imminent in accordance with my lifestyle
What’s ur lifestyle like
Will likely be achieving a career milestone I've been working towards for half a decade next year. I know it'll be an amazing feeling but I'm uneasy because I don't know what comes next. Might go in a different direction, might do the same job but change companies, might just stay where I'm at. But I don't know how much longer I can keep doing this job. Started like 6 months ago and it almost broke me. Was not able to manage the workload, had no free time at all. Was staying late almost everyday and coming in on weekends. I was able to grind and put the work in because my mindset was "This will be over in 2025, you just need to make it there". But once I'm there, what's the next motivation going to be?
I'm still on break for the next 2 weeks, will use this time to figure it out
Why does 2025 feel so eeerrryyy like something huge is gonna happen
#talksoon
2025… 20 25… 20-25 … -5
Make -5 equal 0. 0. 2025 + 0
And 0 does not exist mayne

I’m feeling pretty uneasy about it. Spent half the year recording an album that I completed. Now, I have to do the much more difficult work of promoting it. This is always the moment in a project where I let it slip away from me and move on to something else. I find self-promotion draining and need to find people to delegate these responsibilities to so I can focus on the product. In the meantime, I have to hold my nose and push forward regardless.

You got this brother
How would you go about finding the right people?
Everything is in place for it to be my year. Once the bender ends im locked in for the most important year of my life yet.

First step is making content to post in the first place. With the album finished I have all the audio content I need. There are apps and programs that make throwing together something visually stimulating for IG and TikTok super easy and I need to invest in those. It won’t be amazing at first but it’s content and the algorithm kicks you out if you don’t post frequently.
Slightly longer term, I need to expand the group so we have a touring drummer. I have a good friend with connections in the LA punk scene who has candidates that we’ll interview in the new year. They also want to hook us up with a few specific Hollywood venues. Because studio and rehearsal time is basically free for me because I run a space out of my house, any money we make will be reinvested into finding a social media person.
A longer-term goal for the year: put out a video each for four singles. My producer and bassist has a lot of connections with videographers and two of my roommates know a ton of film students who need work. It’s really more about drafting up something decent and calculating a budget. You don’t need full-length videos to get an audience going but they can be impactful if they’re actually good.
Just thinking out loud
