So I don't follow everything

I'm not retired, so I'm not able to watch wall to wall coverage of high profile trials. So excuse me.for not knowing everything.
I don't get home until 7 pm. So I miss out on the Nightly network news. If I do watch news, it's usually WYZZ at 9 or WMBD at 10. Mostly because my wife and I prefer Chris Yates weather vs. Chuck Collins. And of course, seeing the stories I worked on, on the air.
Otherwise, my time at home after dinner is helping with dishes and laundry, making wife's lunch for next day when she has a 5 am shift; We watch shows like Dancing with The Stars, The Mask, Shark Tank, Young Sheldon, Disney+, or movies on Freeform. Otherwise, I'm browsing Facebook, playing War Commander, checking email, and other local blogs besides PDC and WAP.
My other main activity lately has been shooting and editing a series called "The Scenic Route" (There's a thread for that here). Depending on temps, sun or clouds, I'm out shooting with my Android phone before my 10 am shift. Or I shoot on weekends. I'm almost done with a 2nd edition, already started shooting a 3rd, doing more tomorrow. It helps that I pay a monthly subscription to the same editing software on my home PC, that I've used for 20 years, and use at work.
Ironic that I have a full time job shooting and editing, and what am I doing in my spare time? Shooting and editing other videos for myself. That true passion.

We've heard all of these excuses many times before. It doesn't make up for the fact that you constantly share your opinions on matters that you are woefully uninformed about. Stop doing that, and no one would give you a hard time about it.

You followed him here to harass him constantly. There aren't thar many posters here to begin with. I don't understand why you want to harass and try to run off one of the good ones.

Good posters don't constantly post opinions based on little to no knowledge on a subject. Good posters aren't dishonest. Good posters aren't hypocritical. Good posters don't engage in frequent, shameless self promotion.

You think you are a good poster because two other posters agree with everything you say. You think FAR TOO MUCH of yourself.

Question for

Do I do too much self-promotion? Such as my video blog series?

Dennis, speaking of following, someone is following your every move right now. Clear infatuation.

It's not a violation of the terms of the site.
I like the video blog idea. Good to see something besides fighting on here.
