Channel and General Life Update
One thing that I keep forgetting is that no matter how busy I feel, or how much is going on in my life, if I don't upload or post anything anywhere it just looks like I'm doing nothing to everyone on the internet. Since it's been so long since I've been active here (or on twitter, or the discord, or anywhere else) I figured I at least owed you guys a little update on the channel and my plans for it in the near future.
Since August I've been working on a big, 3 part video series on a certain well-loved JRPG, with plans to release parts 1 and 2 in September and part 3 in early October. These plans basically got annihilated by the birth of my daughter last week, which I obviously find very exciting, but it's taking a little longer than I expected to figure out how to balance my desire to put out videos on a regular basis with my desire to hold my new baby 24 hours a day.
At this point I'm still aiming to have part 1 of the series out before the end of September, and parts 2 and 3 out in October. For you $10+ers, this means I'll be a little behind on requests for a while, but releasing the series throughout October means that I'll have more time to work on new stuff throughout this next month, so I think I'll be able to catch up no problem.
I just want to say I appreciate all of your patience while I've been off the grid, and I'm so so so so grateful for all of your support. Having this kid realistically wouldn't have been an option for me without the continued generosity of all my patrons, so when I say you guys have changed my life, I really mean it. Thank you.
Seriously, thank you.
Expect a new video in the next week or so! I'll see you guys soon!

Congratulations on the 4-bit!
Congrats on the newest addition to your family and life, mate! And no worries, take your time. The good things in life are worth the wait.
Congratulations on the birth of your daughter! Fahterhood is awesome, and I would know! Take the time you need to focus on the birth and care of your little one and the new mama; they need you to help out, and you all need time to celebrate the change. The videos can just be posted whenever you're able to get to them. Don't feel rushed to keep a schedule; we'll still be here for you. :)

Congratulations on your new baby girl, bro! Welcome to Fatherhood! And don't sweat it too much. I'm just glad that you're okay. Please, do your best.
Congratulations!
Congratulations mate! My baby daughter was born June last year, and I too went through similar thoughts as yourself right now with my video schedule. I've actually started releasing a blog on my Patreon page about what it's like having a family, a freelance animation career, a YouTube channel, and balancing this with friends and hobbies. Seriously, all I can tell you is don't worry about your channel or the views. Just hug and play with your daughter all the time, your fans, as I've learned about mine, will wait.
Basically, you can do it. And you'll surprise yourself how easy it'll be to balance it all.
