Summer 2K26

Dream Chasing

Just wrapped up a 4 week training plan to get back to road biking. Went remarkably well to the point I cannot tell whether my indoor trainer is calibrated. I finished the ride about ten minutes ago still experiencing some of the high from good cardio workout so figured I would try and jot down some of the thoughts I had during the ride. I am in the middle of what feels like a million personal projects right now and constantly getting new ideas so time to level up the execution and hoping the dump below will assist with that.

• watchavideo.net

  • products

    • Jeans

      • I have been developing the perfect classic straight american selvedge denim jean. Making from scratch in the comfort of my own home.

      • Things left to do:

        • Grading for waist sizes ~26-38

        • Final adjustments to leg opening, rise, and pockets needed

    • T shirts

      • I now have access to a screen printing co-op which allows me to make my shirts with top end equipment again

      • Problem: I am not showing up. Enjoying the projects that can be done from the living room too much which is definitely something deeper to work through

    • Books

      • Bootleg novels. I enjoy stealing other people’s writing and printing it out into tiny pocket editions. I would like to make more of these and sell them either on the site or the street drug style because the concept is entertaining

      • Journals. Everyone needs a good pocket journal and I believe I can make the best one for the lowest price like everything else sold on the site. I will go into debt to sell the best thing for the lowest price that is my motto.

  • Livestream

    • Lots of work and ideas here. Mainly around cycling for now but as I get back to making things in the studio that will of course be live streamed as well

    • Cycling streams

      • Mixtapes

        • The ideas for this have been too easy to come up with execution might require late nights at the waffle house

        • Elevator pitch: You download one of my cycling workouts and it comes with an mp4. You are gifted an audiovisual mixtape that syncs with the cadence and power of the workout. Includes great music, inspirational speaking, idk you get the point its going to be very cool so please subscribe and give me money if you can that will help me with working on all this.

      • Workout plans

        • Reading a few cycling workout textbooks to level up knowledge on building workout plans without over/under doing it

        • Would like to have a few downloadable plans on the site that align with the mixtapes. Hopefully coming soon I love this idea too much to procrastinate on (fingers crossed)

      • Live workouts

        • I want to get set up to livestream all indoor workouts and then maybe even figure out how to stream the outdoor ones when I get some cashflow going

        • All data on screen so you can see exactly what the body is outputting

        • Copy and paste Golden Cheetah workout so you can ride along

        • Mixtapes from above custom so ride entertainment is pre planned and you can focus on the workout

• Film Criticism

  • I have slowly began to identify the niche I wish to focus on for watching and discussing movies—gen-z cinema. I think there is an interesting shift happening as we fully exit the grasp of the pandemic and those born after 1998 are coming of age and industry to be able to enter the feature film realm. I think there will be a lot of interesting films focusing on psychological/philosophical elements of the younger generations, relationships with technology, and a return to experimentation in the medium that we haven’t seen in a couple decades, Fred Frith style. More to come here as I’m building my general philosophy as a critic as well but obviously following the books of Malraux as I believe deep down there is an optimistic culture shift right around the corner and Film is the last true artistic medium that can work in it.

• Content that passes the WAV Conscious Consumption Test

  • Will Mahony and Father Steve

  • Milo and Dalgo

  • Luca Fersko and Bruce Weber

  • UCI World Tour events

  • Cronenberg’s The Shrouds

  • Olivia Rodrigo’s Drop Dead music video

  • Herzog’s Fata Morgana

  • van Sant’s Gerry

  • Malick’s Song to Song

  • Those Japanese ASMR videos where they make leather shoes

  • BIRD WATCHING

    • Sit outside and start listening for the birds. When you hear them point your eyes in that direction and try to see the birds. Maintain perfect posture.

• Perfect posture

  • Maintain it at all times

  • Work on core so you can maintain it at all times

  • If you work in the office and it is making you unable to maintain perfect posture then start a business plan that explains how to make millions of dollars so you don’t have to struggle with your office job anymore

Summer 2K26 follow along if you want to change the world.
