So I’ve been testing out all the livestream platforms, and Reddit is killin it. 1300 viewers and HUNDREDS of comments. It’s a wholesome crowd that is genuinely interested in learning something new. And each time I did a Reddit livestream, I made a sale…
So holy shit this works.
And all I’m doing is working, or playing in my lab however you look at it. Funniest question: where do you cook your food if your Kitchen is now a full on Lab? Me: on a hot plate, upstairs. I live like a student lol.
I need to go back and award that person for noticing my life is upended.
GOOGLE CALLED ME TODAY. LIKE ACTUALLY. An hour on the phone. They are giving me their own specialist to BUILD ADVERTISING CAMPAIGNS FOR ME!!!!
Wtf! Honestly, I didn’t think they would get back to me. I wrote an email and complained I was being restricted because my target audience was women/sexual interests, and I was being labelled as a sex toy which added insult to injury. Then they GIT ON THE FUCKING PHONE WITH ME. They agreed. I should be able to target women, so he went through my ideology, recorded, wrote down notes, and he was really fucking cool despite not knowing ANYTHING about womens sex pain, or bad dragon toys. It was REFRESHING to educate a young man from zero to hero, who actually agreed my product represented a huge untapped market.
He said to me. How long will it take you to get to 20 molds for full capacity? I said another month? Well I think we can easily send you 400 sales a month…
So we agreed on campaign prices, numbers, ROI. And they are even giving me a dedicated coding expert to make sure I set up the tracking correctly because honestly I’ve pasted so many tags everywhere it’s driving me nuts.
All I have to do, is click on accept when they prompt me with an email, and they will take over my account and build shit out for me.
I’ve been struggling with this alone for a fortnight. And GOOGLE SAVES MY ASS? Like WTF? So they build everything from tomorrow, and hopefully I can just livestream from the lab without having to think anymore about social media campaigns.
This was so unexpected! Fucking GOOGLE? Helping me? You should have heard him doing the calculations though when he saw the money flowing through the back-end of the target market. The entire solution range being aimed at women… is CREAMS. I am the ONLY ONE, with an innovative product solution. So based on the amount of traffic being BOUGHT from Google on those search terms alone, he said there’s plenty of opportunity for me to take up the segment with little competition. And with that, after asking about scalability, just offered to put one on one their own people to build my campaigns, I just agree the budget. How fucking cool is that.
Can’t believe I landed that.
Then a young man wrote to me desperate to help his fiancé, he told me of her specific condition and was too afraid to reveal himself on the livestream, so he showed his fiancé and they were both watching and just wanted to BUY IT. So I get emails from GUYS who want to help their women and their relationship.
This was astonishing to me. That guys will walk in on my livestream, and pull their partners into it. Like, livestreaming REALLY IS a one-on-one experience where I just put myself out there with no shame, reveal the reason I do this, and let whatever comes happen. It’s tough at first, people ask so many questions, but then the excited ones start to help me out by answering other peoples questions who drop in. And the unanimous voting system means I always float to the top of that moment, because my lab is so fucking weird.
No one has seen this shit before. My hamster space-training machine. Goop pouring and injection. They just find it peculiarly mesmerizing and not only stuck around but award me coins that boost my karma.
I could get used to this. Like no one comes on a livestream to bitch. Not like YouTube. They just don’t stick around they don’t troll. The groups on Reddit are so specific, it’s great to see who ventures into my feeds and make note of their background interests.
I am happy in this life. My stomach ulcer sensation even feels much bearable today.
Oh - and my brother wrote LOL. God he’s so fucking flip-flop. He saw the notification I had put up about surgery. And he wanted to know if he was losing his onesan 🤣 I said NOPE. You don’t get rid of me that easy!
My brother is a disordered personality. Like mother. I don’t know if this is a Chinese thing because I sensed it before in community gatherings, like a sort of under tension, of keeping group appearances or something, but everyone seems so strung out underneath. Like you can feel the room has dagger eyes at the mongrel kids me and my brother. And at my mother. And the emotions lidded up feel violent and judgemental even though no one speaks a word.
That is how I’ve always felt in the Chinese community, judged and whispered about. Until, on my own, I would spend time in Chinatown just sucking up nuances around me, anything I could observe to make me feel… at home and comfortable again. Like a nostalgic comfort of childhood, this was my alien family that did not know me. And I felt invisible among them, but soothed by the scent in the air, the occasional viscious remark across stall holders (I still understand some snitty bitchy stuff). I am comfortable around their crazy emotions, because that is what my mother was to me all the time. Somehow, feeling the ruckus in the Chinese market stalls, was enough to make me feel at home in my heart again. The wives bossing the families around, the husbands deferring to their wives. It’s literally so fucking predictable.
How did I even get onto this subject I wandered into?
Oh. MANNY. The guy that assaulted me which I have never acknowledged really until now. For some reason, MONTHS AFTER. I am mad at him. In a different way. For putting me in the “fuck zone” and destroying our friendship by a slip of his fingers. Like HOW did I let that happen?
I fixed his back, and he wanted to return the favor. But, when I took the opportunity to get some back relief… he just worked his way… until I was just too stupidly shocked and blocked up mentally to do or say anything.
And the next day when I blew him off. He realized he lost 10 years of friendship just like that but never even apologized. COWARD. i was assaulted by my best friend? What the fuck.
I remembered the times in China town with him, over many years. And I was just pissed today thinking about it. But right now, it feels like closure - somethings happened in me that I know the fuck zone well enough now to calm it for what it is. SOMETHUNG HAPPENED in me to make me realize, I AM THE ONE IN CONTROL NOW.
I won’t be a victim again. I know what it’s like and I won’t go there anymore.
