Hi Michael!

Okay so my friend Michael Stevens (!!!) from Vsauce just made a Youtube Short eating the Wask silica gel candy! It was also posted on other social like TikTok and guess what? It was removed from TikTok for promoting "dangerous acts and challenges" haha - although the video isn't asking anybody to eat silica gel after all. But what's the most funny to me is that when I created this candy, I actually wanted to create some sort of "silica gel challenge" on the internet knowing it would be super controversial! I simply didn't have enough following to get something like that going haha!

Maybe it's not too late...? ;)

The notebooks are finally out!

I got this notebook idea a few years ago but always struggled with finding a manufacturer who can make it (without having to order like hundredsss of them!) so I'm really excited for it to be a reality now! It's called the Skewed Thoughts notebook since it features a "skewed" parallelogram shape instead of a regular rectangular shape. View it on the shop here!
