The Freedom Report with Jackie Jackson is back, this time with a marketplace of ideas about trans people and TERFs (trans-exclusionary radical feminists).
This is the second video in a row I've done on trans issues. I don't want to become too niche, but I've just started transitioning—oh, that's happening by the way, I'll pr...

Just a reminder that the Discord patron hangout will be today at 1pm and again at 8pm Eastern time (I'm hoping most who want to will be able to make one time or the other). If it's your first time on the Discord, try to join at least ten minutes before the hangout—that way I or a mod can help you troublesh...

Going live with the AMA in 10 minutes. Any extra questions you have you can ask in the chat at the end of the stream if we have time, or we can just hang out. I'll post the archive here tomorrow for those who miss it.

Dear friends,
I'll be doing my first AMA patron stream tomorrow at 4pm Eastern Time. It looks like only 17 of the $10+ folks have submitted questions so far, so if you're in that group and want to ask a question but haven't done so yet, leave it as a comment on the previous post.
What I'll do now though is open up the qu...

This week I'll be trying out the AMA stream patron reward for the first time. Let's see how it goes!
Since you're my top-tier patrons, you get to ask the questions that I'll answer on the stream. Here are some tips on asking a question that I can give a satisfying answer to:
1. Keep it short. Pretend ...
2017-08-01 00:25:18 +0000 UTC View PostDear friends,
I've added the following to the patron rewards: $1+ people (everyone, basically) now get access to the outtakes videos. $10+ patrons now get to submit questions in advance for a monthly AMA (ask me anything) live stream, which all $2+ patrons can watch. $2+ patrons also get access to the archives of past AMA stre...

Dear Friends,
This one took about three weeks but is finally complete at considerable financial and emotional cost. Hopefully it's worth it!
Next time I think I'll go back to squabbling with Nazis or something else that's only middle-tier injurious in terms of mental health.
In return for my troubles you owe it to ...

Just want to notify you of a few things.
First, apologies to the $15+ folks that I haven't scheduled a hangout yet this month. I've been busy working on a very complicated video while simultaneously dealing with a certain level of identity crisis that is itself related to the video I'm working on. It's all ...

This is the only patron-funded video I'll be doing this month. The upside is that it's basically three videos in one. What a great value for you!
I decided to read the names of the $10+ patrons who were new last month, to cover the gap left by my dropping that reward. Next month I'll be rolling out a new $10 reward, possibly i...

Here's the recorded discussion, in case you missed it yesterday. Sorry for the confusion about the link—basically I'm prevented from streaming on my main channel because of the strike on my account (though not, apparently, from creating live events), so at the last minute I had to stream from my live stream channel instead.

Well, YouTube rejected my appeal. Here's a quick video explaining my take on the situation (which you won't be changed for, naturally). Links to the removed video are in the description.

2017-06-04 20:37:45 +0000 UTC View PostHi all,
Just a heads up: My latest video was falsely flagged and removed by YouTube. Basically here's how this works: a bunch of people (could be 4chan, anyone, who knows) decide they want a video taken down. They all flag the video for violating TOS. If enough people do this, YouTube automatically removes the video. They then...

I was thinking of scheduling two separate google hangouts this weekend, since each can only hold ten people at a time.
