This nearly killed me! Towards the middle of the video you all might hear my breathing pick up and that’s because the dust from this was literally suffocating. It was so thick! Still an amazing crush of classic colors! 🥰❤️
I thought this would be a great time to talk about chalk choices and so on!
Although I have been crushing crunchier chalk lately, I know everyone wants to see the exact same dusty crushes everyday but that can get kinda boring (to me at least) so I think firmer chalk is a nice diversion and we can still sprinkle in these soft blocks as needed. I think the biggest thing for me at this point is finding a balance to crush all the things I enjoy (crunchy chalk, soft chalk, reforms, baking soda, cornstarch, etc.) and still making it enjoyable for the viewers. That’s been a challenge lately because a lot of folks are VERY demanding, unfortunately and don’t like to support anything that is not a soft dyed mass gym chalk crush. I have moved away from identifying crushes by brand names like BSN for this reason. This is BSN in the video but I do not want to continue attaching my channel to any brand names that aren’t sponsored.
I’m working really hard to figure out how to make everyone happy but most importantly, myself. At the end of the day, this is a hobby. Not a job or career that should require so much. I think that is the biggest takeaway that I would like for viewers to recognize. This is a hobby for ASMR artists. I feel like I have to say this so many times because the comments on videos across the community can get really negative.
I see a lot of people complaining about some of my fellow artists taking weeks/months off from creating but I want you all to know that this is not a career for most of us. We have real lives, real jobs/careers, real bills and responsibilities, real families, and most of us have health issues that brought us into the community to begin with. Please be kind. ❤️🙏🏽
It’s okay to share your opinion respectfully but constantly pushing for a particular chalk or mass crushes or powder play or things that may be stressful, costly, or even not enjoyable for some can be inconsiderate. Something I see a lot is “but you all get paid for making videos from KZfaq.” I’m telling you now, its is NOT ENOUGH MONEY TO LIVE OFF OF. Most of us get between $0.02-0.10 cent per view and sometimes a lot less than that depending on the region of the viewer (America gets the highest RPM and in this community, most of our viewers are in India where the RPM is unfortunately the lowest).
One of the things I always encourage subscribers to do is buy your own chalk and make what you like to see. We will all support you! We all also have Amazon wishlists if you insist on seeing a particular type of crush or brand of chalk/dye. The most important thing that you can do is actually FREE though and that’s just being kind, supportive, and considerate. Most of you do that very well and I appreciate it so much. ❤️
Please enjoy this crush and thank you for watching! More to come! 🥰
Here is my Amazon Wish List if you would like to support in any way! Remember, nothing is expected and everything is appreciated! ❤️: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls...
