BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I don't think there'll be a video this week because mental health and life again. Next week is iffy, too, but in large part because I'm going to start seeing a new psychiatrist which will cause some rough times in the short term but should be REALLY useful in the long term! 021
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Things are hectic this week, so I'm not sure what day my next video will be up. Lots of stuff has been/will be messing up my sleep schedule, so I kinda have to do the survival mode thing until I can get one long sleep all at once again But once I do... Marshmallows will be had 020
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Gonna be one or two more FFX2 episodes than I thought. I read that Via Infinito takes 1~2 hours to beat, but uh... I think that's if you run from all the unnecessary fights, and I don't :') At least I have an excuse to eat more marshmallows! 120
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 09/09/2026I just finished a whole episode in one day for the first time in MONTHS! Recorded, edited, thumbnailed, uploaded, descripted (yes I made that word up), and ready to go live in four hours! I'm not sayin' I'm fully back, but I'm at least somewhat back and it feels so good 😭 020
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 08/09/2026I was gonna record but ended decluttering my SSD. Went from "you monster, how could you" levels of full to "*slaps roof* this bad boy can fit so many gigabytes" And now that all my programs and games are more stable and faster, the YouTubening can continue! (After sleep, of course) 140

BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 03/09/2026This channel rebranding is turning into such a journey of self-discovery :') I was trying to understand why no drawing tutorial or book has made sense to me and I learned about dyspraxia and how many symptoms of it I have. Sucks not to have known, but now I know there are tools that can help! 020

BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 23/08/2026It took 4 hours to record an episode of FFX2 because of crashes, green screens, and a surprise superboss as a random encounter in a dungeon, and I'm so brain broken I'm on the verge of tearing up Lesson learned, the overwhelm needs to be listened to even if I really want to work on a video 000
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 19/08/2026I've always wanted my channel to be a safe space for everyone (except bigots, they get booted) So when I was looking at other analytics and saw 97% of my viewers who list a gender are male, I was shocked The new major goal of the rebrand: Make the inclusivity clear. If I lose viewers, so be it🏳️🌈 150

BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 18/08/2026Drawing practice tailored to ADHD and accompanying fine motor control problems is going well but is making me surprisingly sore! Six minutes of drawing lines using the little muscles it turns out I've never used properly and my arm was hurting in entirely new ways. Definitely gonna be a long process 020
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 17/08/2026The rebranding planning has begun! It's gonna involve more new art than planned with a BIG revamp of the Squirrell themself, so I'm starting some ADHD-friendly drawing exercises to get myself ready and finally improve my fine motor control issues^^ It'll take time but I'm RIDICULOUSLY excited! 040
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 13/08/2026I had energy to record a video, but then I had an OCD spiral that drained me. Sucks I couldn't record, but recognizing that I was spiraling, pulling myself out, and resting instead of making it worse by trying to push through is a HUGE mental health win and I'll take it^^ 040
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Update time! 1) Sleep has been bad, but I think that's the last hurdle of the ADHD burnout times ^o^ I've learned a lot about myself, changes I need to make for my life in general, and how I want to do things on YouTube, but I am SO READY TO BE FULLY FUNCTIONAL AGAIN PLEASE AND THANK 120

BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Update time! 1) Still have ADHD burnout post to make. I was too burned out to before, but was too ADHD to remember that affects posting :') 2) I'm pretty well recovered, and I learned SO much about myself from it 3) Gonna do some little tweaks to video making and branding, but it'll be good^^ 020

BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 18/07/2026I got my new audio interface and got it set up. No audio issues over the last few hours, but I can't let myself relax because I've been fooled before :') I like the new one, though, it does a couple things the old one didn't. The mic monitoring is kinda ass, but otherwise it's good so far 000

BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Bad news: I was wrong about having figured the audio out before Good news: Got another thing I'm trying, and I also managed to record a video while things looked stable, so I'll have that up maybe Saturday? 121
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Good news! (I think, unless something goes wrong again.) I'm pretty sure I found the root of the audio issues. After I spent hours last night overhauling my audio setup ._. Windows has a stupid setting that I have now turned off, and surprise upside, my new setup sounds a bit better than the last! 030
BigSquirrell @bigsquirrell.bsky.social · 17/07/2026Go back this if you can, and spread the word if you want to support it but can't afford to pledge! Beloved Rapture was such a wonderful game, this one is definitely going be the same and I can't wait to play it! 010
