There are much more You want to be a Virtual personality too, but do you know where to go first? I will be recommending five eight wonderful personalities who are in this community.

Apparently this is my first Desk Diary of the year. I dedicate this post to one person who keeps doing what he does best: Being bullied by Interviewing VTubers. They call him Kevin, most got used to calling him Domo though. This guy helped elevate the best Virtual YouTubers outside of major agencies through his interviews. When he starts streaming, I was ready to clip segments as much as I can. ...

Happy New Year everyone! We’re now in another year of struggles, perseverance, and yes: Virtual YouTubers. Now, to see how I did with my simping superchat posting in 2020: I spent more than Php3,000 on Vtubers which should have ended up to Pat who is hosting this website. After the 10th year anniversary stream of DTV Pilipinas last night, I jest that Pat should be a VTuber so I can simp and at the same time pay the hosting expenses (lol). ...

What. A. Year. I started the year with hopes and dreams that I can go to Iloilo or La Union, only to end up stuck in one place and working my ass off. This is definitely not the situation I wanted to be. Imagine having time for friends and hobbies in person, or creating more projects - then all of a sudden, you have no place to go anymore. Can we go back in time to avoid COVID-19, the CCP Virus, altogether? ...

For the final podcast for 2020, I talked about “Saekano the Movie: Finale” with Anime Corner’s Marlo Barcellano. Marlo, who has seen the movie already way ahead of us, joins me for a brief discussion on what makes Saekano special, including our best moments from the movie. ...

I kept scrolling on my news feed only to stumble upon an interview with Singaporean cosplayer Rea Kami on The Royal Singapore. I was halfway through it when I stopped and wrote another Desk Diary. It was not until recently that I learned of Rea as an outspoken person, and this interview she had is compelling. Best of all, she gives quite good laughs. To summarize, in her days in school, she said “she was just very slow when it came to social situations.” She then pulls up this Japanese phrase: 空気読よめない. Kuuki yomenai. KY. Can’t read the air. Can’t read the atmosphere. ...

Thank you for taking time to read this. I promise this will be quick. This past week, I went on like how Bruno Mars sang it: “Today I don’t feel like doing anything.” Just replace “today” with “this week.” Two weeks of work left my soul crashed, and find myself wanting to just stay in a corner and watch on YouTube. I really don’t felt like doing work tasks. I assume it’s because I haven’t got any time to do what I love. I haven’t figured out how to move forward with producing podcasts at the moment, I’m producing videos for now. ...

If you’re in the field of multimedia, programming or simply a multitasker, having only a single monitor is considered a sin - at least for me. I got used to having two monitors even in the office, which is why it’s hard not to use another monitor to edit. Our office got this small, USB-powered AOC LED monitor of which I believe has been phased out in the country as far as Google tells me. ...

Photo from the NASA Earth Observatory These past two weeks are unusual… Storm after storm, rain after rain, the top part of the country gets drenched so bad that even the mountains and dams can’t handle the water and start flowing to the metro again. They said this is a repeat of Ondoy, but GMA News’ Meteorologist Nathaniel Cruz gave a better explanation about this: Ondoy went in slow, while Ulysses succeeded other storms. ...
