    I laughed when you used the word slut. You keep things pretty pg so seeing you use more interesting language is fresh in your art. When you accidentally cuss you bleep it out and you have such a chill personality. Keep being you whether it is pg or you going with the flow.

    You should preserve flowers with silica gel beads! The flowers retain their shape and color since they're not pressed. The silica beads change colors as they draw moisture out of the flowers so you know when they're done and you can dry the beads in the oven so that you can reuse them.

    Your creative uses of dried flowers were really helpful for me to get my own creative juices flowing. I also like that you show behind the scenes of how to do it, issues you encountered, and your self effacing voice (with the echoe effect) was funny as well. Great job all around. Side note: has anyone ever told you that your voice sounds like the comedian/actor/Podcaster (often on Comedy Bang! Bang!) Thomas Lennon? You could do a spot on impression of him if you tried.
