😊The Troll Doll Channel: UNBOXING of WISHNIK, "MUTINY" in TROLLANDIA, an...


I`m still on the COVID comeback trail, though feeling a lot better now - and a week ago just seems like a distant nightmare of aching, coughing, and being literally unable to sit up without fainting. I don`t usually get sick, so it seemed almost like an insult. For the first time I truly understood that this is a disease that could kill you. It`s also beginning to look vaccine-proof, which alarms hell out of me, and we are now being offered a FOURTH shot - being as how the first three seemed to have done doodlysquat to prevent our household from coming down with it, bad. It`s a medical whack-a-mole situation that may go on indefinitely, which is rotten because the disease is so rotten. But I will try to focus on the fact that, after three days of feeling like shit on the bottom of someone`s shoe, I feel almost normal today, and it`s a sunny day. Tomorrow we might even go outside for a walk, so long as we stay well away from our fellow human beings. All this has indeed made me profoundly grateful for small blessings.

This video, well, like a lot of my stuff on YouTube, it got way more views than my troll things used to get (maybe five or six). Some of them go up over a hundred now. My subscriber count teeters on a momentous brink, causing the eternal pessimist in me to think the algorithm will just freeze now and I will be at (literally) 99.99 subscribers FOREVER. Or, worse, that the count will begin to drop. But the truth is, it has all been trending upward due to one very silly video that also appeared on TikTok. Coincidence, really. 

I think my channel has helped keep my interest alive in my various hobbies - it`s nice to be able to share unboxings and displays of my finest and most beloved, as well as my ugliest. The down side is that I cannot stop BUYING the things. It is an addiction, plain and simple, but such an enjoyable one that I don`t really want to stop. COVID (I refuse to use the wretched p-word) confined me and everyone else enough to focus inward, or at least on indoor things you can practice without social contact. Sometimes I think my main social contact now is with my trolls.
