Happy Candlenights, my lovely monitors! This year has been a wild one, and but I hope that you’re all having yourself a safe and lovely holiday with your friends and loved ones, however you may be enjoying yourselves!

I won’t pretend that this year hasn’t been a forkin mess for a lot of people, but as much as we have in some way been forced to change how we live our lives, I don’t believe for a second that the pandemic (or the new conditions for it) have “ruined” how we celebrate the holidays.

Holidays are very strange when you think about it. They are social constructs of celebration self-perpetuated by widespread agreements that they should be celebrated. But bc social consensus is very broad, yet nebulous, how we “agree” to celebrate them is a very fickle thing.

Despite how we culturally view the holidays, our “traditions” are ultimately of our own as individuals. To many, it means being with family and friends in giant parties. To many others, it may mean chilling at home alone with a warm blanket and a Twitch stream.

The pandemic has certainly made us change our habits, but not uniformly. To many, social distancing has resulted in this being their first Christmas alone. To others, it might be business as usual. Times change, rituals change, we change.

Folks have asked: What’s the point? Is it even worth participating in these holidays when the world has changed this drastically? Can we still act like we believe in what we value anymore when the world has become this frankly dangerous and scary?

My personal answer: yes!

I, for one, LOVE ritual. Ritual anchors us in time, it gives us something to look forward to, it provides a moment to reaffirm what we believe in, and it’s one that even when apart, we can all share. It is proto-self care, which heavens know we all need right now haha

Sociologically, we as individuals place value in an everchanging tug-of-war between our desire to be individuals, but also be accepted by others. To be special, and to be loved. This is what celebrations like these are made out of.

Even to folks who DON’T celebrate any monolithic holiday like Christmas in a “traditional” way, we all still desire that sense of love and belonging, just on their own terms we can decide for ourselves. We all want a holiday! Let’s decide what it is!

Because everything is so different, now is the time not simply to mourn the loss of a world that once was, but understand what we truly cherish in the world going forward, and how we wish to build that for ourselves. We’ve made it this far. What shall our next step be?

No matter how messy this year was for you, we reached the home stretch, and with this holiday season, I hope we all ruminate on what we truly cherish in the world; the unity, sharing, and love that will drive us into the future together. Even while we are apart, we will never be alone.

The world is a strange, sometimes uncaring and dangerous place filled with hurtful things you may not understand. And yet despite that, there is no telling how beautiful you may become.

Happy holidays, and here’s to the better, safer, happier future we all dream of.

[Love] Thank you all for tuning in to Channel Mono, my lovely monitors! See you all again soon!!!

mono no aware. We hope to see you again soon, @channelmono!

[Life] My friends, I have a special announcement to make! …this might take a while. Thread below.

I got a job. Not just any job, but a dream job. A creator job! Ever since I arrived on this earth, I’ve been searching for a job looking to create, because as you probably already know, I love creating content. But content takes time and money… except for when it doesn’t.

I’ve been struggling to find that work for years, but out of nowhere as I was transferring between moonbases, I received word back from several employers I wasn’t expecting to get offers back from. This recent unexpected silence has been me doing auditions and negotiating terms.

Out of nowhere, I had to make a hard decision of picking the best job offer, and last night, the contract was formed. I… have a really crazy job now. A fun job. A busy job. It’s too early to publicly reveal what it is, but I will say that I’m… over the moon? badumpshh!

I am astronomically sorry that I’ve left this channel to dry in light of this and other events in my life. This channel was formed as a labor of love, and I feel like I’ve accomplished so much with it, not just in content, but the friends and fans I’ve made that expect from me.

I’ve been trying to maintain a lot of things in my life even before this craziness suddenly hit me, including this channel. I thought I could do all of them, but the prep work I’ve needed to do for my new career made me realize that I have my limits.

So… this is me saying that Channel Mono will be going on a long break again. I’m so stoked for the amazing things in front of me, and I will always love doing this project and making content, but I desperately want to make this career work… this opportunity is everything.

I can’t promise when I’ll be back to make the content you love from me because I can’t say for sure where this new path will take me. But make no mistake: we will meet again someday.

Thanks for staying tuned! I will always love you, my lovely monitors. Forever!

[Background] I got a thing. I’m not sure how to use it. Best of luck to me.

Break extended to March 29th due to further unexpected circumstance. Sorry for the wait!

Sorry to spring this up! Due to unforeseen technical issues, content will be postponed until next Monday!

This mostly has to do with my move to a new moonbase! Everything is safe, I just haven’t been able to find a stable time to film new content as the transfer has yet to fully complete and things are yet to settle down.

Thank you for your understanding!
