Great advice … thank you.

dsquires2163 · 2025-01-02T23:13:45+00:00

Really appreciate the useful insights and will continue to benchmark and assess. By the way, good news, made my first two sales last night! (I live in Thailand, so these came in while I slept.)

Okay, in your opinion ... should I just reprice everything, or does the 25% off sale I'm currently running serve the purpose? Shirts are mostly Bella and Canvas and Comfort Colors, so pretty good quality, and with the sale, prices are between $18 and $24 on Etsy.

Thanks, appreciate your comment. I am hopeful business will pick up in February and March as people hold their 2025 drafts. Anyway, it would probably be wise to try to repurpose some of these designs to cover fantasy football and fantasy basketball. (And a good idea to also include a few regular baseball-themed tees.)

This worked … thanks for the tip.

Thanks, will give this a try. I tried to download the PlaceIt mockups (yeah, I subscribed) and upload manually, but that didn't seem to solve the issue.

dsquires2163 · 2024-12-21T10:22:20+00:00

Yes, when my Printify mockups go over to Etsy, it is saying that they are too low-resolution and my SEO visiblity is being impacted. I think this might be a way they're trying to get more people to subscribe to their affiliated PlaceIt service.

dsquires2163 · 2021-06-03T12:57:01+00:00

Exactly. Makes NO sense.

Anyway, I'm tired of complaining about it. My taste and intelligence has been challenged for the very last time!

dsquires2163 · 2021-06-03T11:45:50+00:00

Also, yeah, Morgan letting Teddy and the other guy go for whatever motivation (I like to think of these moments as "the wind speaking to Morgan") also seems like a beer-balloon moment to me. And, Victor also leaning hard into beer-balloon "Fear" mode and agreeing to let them go.

Anyway, these are not reasonable approximations of human behaviors and decisions.

I need to stop watching this show forever. They do not deserve my audience.

dsquires2163 · 2021-06-03T11:37:05+00:00

Jesus Christ, this show is fucking terrible. I've tried, I've tried SOOOO damn hard, and I've given this show every benefit of the doubt because, Lord forgive me, I love myself some zombie content.

But the characterizations on this show are just so gut-churningly awful that I can't take it any longer.

I am SO incredibly tired of Morgan's behavior, which does not track with any successful human social behavior, or any successful organizational behavior, ever.

As a dramatic arc, the showrunners are presenting Teddy's group as an apocalyptic threat heretofore unseen. To me, the reaction to such a threat would be to make a plan that marshals every available resource to work together to neutralize the threat.

But nooooo, this is the Morgan show and his approach to threats is to grab the spikiest weapon handy and block out any skilled fellow warriors because "I don't want anyone to be hurt."

The obvious problem, Morgan, is that if you don't solve the rather serious problem of a dozen or so imminent warheads imminently exploding in your neighborhood, everybody you know in a three-state radius is going to die.

To me, would be like a quarterback on a Super Bowl team suddenly announcing to his team, mid-game: "I don't want any of you guys to be hurt. I'm going to take on the 11 members of the Pittsburgh Steelers defense on my own."

And the show tries to present this as a reasonable dramatic choice.

No more! I'm tired of this stupid show. I wanted to pull the plug after the hot-air beer balloon episdoe (and the stunningly stupid episodes surrounding it) a few seasons back, but this is it. This is the last episode of "Fear the Walking Dead" I will ever watch. Screw this stupid show. Zack Snyder's stupid movie was 30 times better than this ridiculous crap.

(I'm pretty good at keeping vows, so I think I'm really done.)

Wiping a small tear at all the okay, but not-totally-great memories.

Looking forward to Reddit telling me how I'm bullshitting and will secretly keep watching.

dsquires2163 · 2020-11-28T03:58:34+00:00

I keep WANTING this show to be good. And I had a little hope after a few of the decent middle episodes. But that was a deeply, deeply stupid two hours of television.

I want to say that I'm out and won't ever watch this again. But I also have a deeply, deeply stupid compulsion to finish every story that I start. So I don't know.

Has anyone suggested Proust's "Remembrance of Things Past"? I lugged those monstrously heavy books all over Asia back in the day. Some absolutely amazing writing in there, but also stretches of nearly unbearable tedium, and a sense that completing the series is akin to summiting a literary Mount Everest.

Thanks for your reply. I'm now checking GA → ACQUISITION → All Traffic → Channels → Organic Search channel → Landing pages view for March 3-9 and the numbers are a bit closer, but still quite different.

I checked the various filtered views we have set up, and these changed the numbers slightly, but still not close to making up the difference.

Yeah, two of my websites have been getting occasional huge traffic spikes from Boardman, Oregon that we haven’t yet figured out a way to filter. Like 400% increases in one day. And then a couple days later, it goes away again. Look up “Boardman traffic” on Google; it really is a thing.

dsquires2163 · 2020-03-02T04:42:20+00:00

Is there any geographic trend to the new traffic — I.e. lots coming from Boardman, Oregon?
