some people asked how i made my game, BitBrew Cafe. i did it here. i made an agentic video game builder. take it from concept to completion. it helps to standardize processes and manage files. still working out the kinks, but real happy with the turn out.

property rights. that's the thing that makes _voluntary_ trade happen. without it you have theft or force. nothing else.
the game is harder now. but that's not the property rights. that's what systems do. they calcify.
rules get written.
loopholes close.
the frontier gets claimed and defended.
people have three moves.
work inside the hardened thing. change the rules. or build something parallel at the margins.
the third one is interesting.

the new snake oil coming soon is sovereignty.
tech and money don't make you sovereign. violence does. the capacity to employ it. to defend what is yours. nations have standing armies. taxation. the monopoly on force. citizens have nothing.
ruby ridge.
grifters selling you the dream now. crypto. tools. self-sufficiency. they're selling you vaporware. something that was never yours to buy.
you can't opt out. you can hide. you can make yourself harder to reach. second citizenship, legal teams, distance. but you can't escape the system's hand.
be wary of anyone promising you otherwise.

i dont do well with groups.
not that im a complete and utter introvert (i am), but once a group gets to a certain size, whatever signal there was, to me, just becomes noise.
im part of a discord filmmakers meetup. started off small. 20 or so. then its ballooned to over 500. i stopped checking in. dont even bother hitting the meetups. i know im killing off my own networking opportunities, but something inside just says theres not much there anymore that interests me.
and its not for a lack of trying. its just you try to provide some value, but its lost in said noise, like a single pixel on a static filled tv.

2026-06-27 17:06:24 CEST

just thinking…
i used to run a pretty successful business three years ago. outsourcing didn't really affect me. i ran one of the first remote animation studios in the industry so we were leagues ahead of that idea. and in 2020, i think we peaked. from there a slow decline.
we sold three properties.
that was a highlight. and the beginning of the decline. having to deal with buyer notes, delays, and the eventual bleed of funds. i started thinking how this 'industry' is not sustainable in any way shape or form. it's a total race to the bottom. profits be damned. and the crew certainly didn't understand nor cared about profits and how it benefitted a studio's lifespan. most in the artistic field don't think like money people. the idea of profit is a foreign concept to them.
my last big project was for a major studio.
the project was funded by a billionaire. he had enough capital to buy the industry outright. terrifying to know. weird having dinner with his manager too. they live on a whole different level. what was interesting to me though, was how the managing class of crew were so cavalier with his funds. when i crafted the production plan, i was always careful and profit oriented first. but the hollywood crew spent money like water through cupped hands. watching thousands bleed out because no one cared felt like watching someone burn down a house just to feel warm.
everyday was a fight.
for two years. trying to keep ethical in an unethical industry with unethical people. they weren't amoral, but might as well be. they were there to raid the treasury, and it was gross. nothing i could do at the end of the day. we didn't speak the same language.
i burnt out.
it took me years to get back to some kind of creative center again. you do lose skills though. like sharing your ideas when you have them. not overthinking execution. planning.
so i stepped away. traveled. and i was already deep into nostr and ai at that point. i thought if i focused my efforts there, a different environment, different people, different rules, maybe it would be different. in the beginning, nostr felt like oxygen. but over time, the roi of my efforts hasn't panned out. the platform seems to keep getting smaller. like watching something you believed in slowly suffocate.
then i made hodl. my short film had real momentum when i was wrapping it up. i could feel it. but then i felt that slight tinge of burnout creeping back in. so i took time off. healthy decision, right? except when i stepped away, it just lost momentum. the lightning in a bottle moment was gone. and i realized something was happening again. the same thing.
the pattern is the same no matter where i go. i burn out when i'm either compromising on values, working with people who don't give a shit, who are there to raid the treasury, or when i'm pushing something alone, uphill, without traction or validation.
sometimes both at once.
it's like trying to build a house while someone's setting fires on the other side and no one's helping you carry the bricks.
and here's the thing… i can't fully solve either of those problems alone.
i can choose who i work with, but that's limiting.
opportunities are scarce.
i can't control whether people share my values.
and i sure as hell can't force an audience to care about what i make, no matter how hard i push. you can't will something into existence through effort alone.
so before i burn myself out trying to make something no one's gonna watch, i need to figure out what actually matters here. is it nostr. is it the content. or is it something about what kind of creative work i can actually sustain without losing myself.
maybe the answer isn't about finding the right platform.
maybe it's about accepting what i can realistically do without compromising or breaking.
who knows…

i'm terrible at marketing myself.
i don't like it.
the work should speak for itself. it does, but to an empty room.
its a skill i need to get better at.
i use to do it for my company. marketed from 2008 to 2024.
it was just me writing. blogging.
then i stopped. didn't see value.
you'd write and post and share right into the void.
but it's a good skill.
knowing how to sell is the skill.
if you learn one thing from the red flag that is my experience, know that.
