I have been outed once again! Well, not so much outed as acknowledged. Someone left a bag of cookies in my pickup and the bag says Lazy Farmer.
This could just be a commentary on how much I got done this winter or perhaps it is a direct reference to this bog. It is probably because I am so complementary towards all my neighbors.

| Excellent cookies! I have seen this packaging before. Sometimes it would show up in my truck when I had a real job... |
Speaking of outed...
I was talking to the taco stand owner at lunch yesterday. His daughter's went to Linfield University. There is actually a trend. Someone should research it... One of the things Linfield HR said I had to remove from this blog was the commentary on what would happen when the Hispanic community figured out that sending their sweet daughters to Linfield to become nurses would actually result in them coming home with a girlfriend, crippling student debt, and an OnlyFans account. This guys daughters did not go to those extremes, but they came back with the liberal bullshite. They ain't working in no Taco stand. It's breaking his heart, not as much that they won't work in the restaurant, its that they are rejecting their father (IMHO). We had a good talk. There are certain things that don't exactly translate but you absolutely understand.
The University of course does this on purpose. It is socialization. The point isn't to educate but to indoctrinate. It isn't about getting a classical liberal education with your nursing degree. It is about separating the student from unearned income and changing their world perspective.
Speaking of world perspective. I have been trying to boost my YouTube channel. I have been using AI to analyze why some videos instantly get 1000 hits and some only 35. I have not figured this out.
I have edited the description and tags on this video numerous times and no hits.
However, this short with similar subject matter-Rosco and an old truck, has over 1000 and that was in the first day.
The short with the Detroit 6V-92 going downhill has like 3,000 hits. Keywords like Detroit Diesel, Minneapolis-Moline, G1355, and Cunningham Hay Conditioner, seem to bring in a lot of views. Especially if it is in a short.
But I am a long way from becoming a Tristian Swartz. Perhaps I should take up smoking?
I do like this guy on YouTube, seems like a decent sort. Doesn't just talk at the camera!
I have no idea what gets the high clicks/views on a yt video. Some of mine do amazingly well considering they are nothing special. Others I put a lot into and think are pretty good but yet they languish down in the low hundreds. I see creators with better videos than mine and not getting as many views as mine do. It seems yt shorts do very well but I have refused to try that format since I can't stand the "keyhole view" that so many people use and I believe is a requirement for the shorts. Same with A.I., as intriguing as it can be I have taken a stand to not include it in my videos. Just my view but a.i. is ruining the internet with it's fake b.s. posts, pics, video and news. Keeping it real here. Thanks for watching the roosty6 channel. I'm not making a cent on it but enjoy the comments and interactions with viewers.
ReplyDeleteFor a long time my highest viewed video was me using a Cunningham Hay conditioner. Now that had to be a niche keyword search. I do just about every video expecting people to view it while farming using their phone. I forget that people actually sit down and watch videos!
DeleteDepends a lot on yt putting your video out there in the suggested column where viewers will see a good thumbnail and click on it. Although thumbnail is no guarantee either. My highest ever was last winter's "Rescuing a John Deere". No special thumbnail or content but it was at over 80,000 clicks last time I checked. Makes me reconsider not monetizing my channel but then I refuse to bow to yt's intrusive requirements to be verified. A scan of my driver's license with photo i.d. ? Seriously they expect me to give them that??
DeleteI miss the days of Blogger when there were followers who interacted. I need to consolidate my internet accounts and focus on feed making with some more disciplined narrative to sell feed. But that would require more concentration than I seem to have.
