Update on Odysee and YouTube

Salutations! This is a quick update on the video production. I haven’t been so active as of late due to other commitments. That being said, I will get back to my usual video frequency come May. May as in Mayhem! It is a month I have always associated with a high pace. I will continue to post videos to YouTube, but I will make exclusive content for Odysee.

Generally speaking, the future of YouTube does not look so bright, at least not for independent content creators. YouTube is getting ever more geared towards big corporations, which is both lamentable and understandable. However, on a more positive note, I am excited about both Odysee and 3Speak.

If you haven’t already signed up to Odysee, I encourage you to do so now: https://odysee.com/$/invite/@thegoldenone:a. A great feature of Odysee is that you can repost videos from other channels. This makes it easier for supporters to access all content in one place. As you can see below, my appearances on Guide to Kulchur (DECAMERON) and The Bog both appear on my channel. I have also reposted Camp of Saints by Elessar and Xurious (great track) and a video from Asha Logos (who does great videos). So, if you haven’t checked those videos out, you can do so on my Odysee channel.

3Speak is a part of the Hive network (as are PeakD and Ecency). Hive is a highly interesting (decentralised) initiative that I will promote later on. As of late, I have promoted Odysee, Gab and Minds quite hard, so I need to wait a while until I can promote more social media sites. 3Speak is the video platform of the network. It looks and feels really good, you can check out my channel here: https://3speak.tv/watch?v=thegoldenone/kmvfldqh. Odysee will be my primary video platform moving forward, but 3Speak is an interesting alternative. I am also keeping my eyes open for other platforms of the Hive network. Exciting times!

Moreover, I just released Podcast Episode 8. Balkanization, where I discuss the future of Europe and America. The episode is available here: https://www.subscribestar.com/thegoldenone and here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/50169296. Sharing my thoughts in a podcast feels great. I don’t have to censor myself and I don’t have to keep it short.

Lastly, on a somewhat unrelated note, the supremely aesthetic Lir’s Merino Wool Sweater (seen in the header picture) may be back come autumn. What I can say with certainty, though, is that more wool garments will be available later in the year. You can stay tuned by signing up to the newsletter (form is on the page): https://legiogloria.com/.

Gym Wisdom and Legio Gloria Releases

Originally posted to Gab as my Fizeek Friday contribution: the post on Gab.

Gym advice: strength and mass will come to you, but only if you continuously get stronger in the heavy compound movements (this is the main rule for naturals, i.e. non-steroid users). This means that most of your gym sessions will be about pushing your limits.

Adequate preparation (sleep + diet) will enable this. But, in my experience, you also need a good amount of passion to push through when the sessions get ever heavier.

Thus, you need to optimise your mental game in relation to your gym sessions. This is the idea behind memorising epic quotes (like the one above, which is from Otto Rahn’s Lucifer’s Court). The same principle applies to garments (many Legio Gloria designs for example) and to amulets. As seen in the picture, I am wearing the Hammer of Thor. I look at the Hammer and am reminded of its meaning (it is a symbol of strength).

I have long been a proponent of the PWO (pre-workout) Routine. A moment of mental preparation before the session. A cup of coffee, a fruit, some intense music, some videos (many of my videos are to serve this purpose). Get in the right mind-set before hitting the gym.

Speaking of which, we have a new release for Legio Gloria: the Questing Handsome Shorts – Navy.

These shorts are made of 100% cotton. They are a bit thicker and softer than the previous version of the Handsome Shorts. Moreover, since they are flexible and soft enough, the elastane has been omitted. Proudly made in Poland.

Lastly, as I announced on Telegram, the European Jotunheim Nutrition webshop has been updated: https://www.jotunheimnutrition.de/. In addition to some adjustments, I am happy to announce that Gyllene Kaffekompaniet gourmet coffee (Kongo Mörkrost) is now available for European customers. Swedish coffee is something completely different than non-Swedish coffee. So, a high quality Swedish gourmet coffee is bound to completely MOGG other, lesser, coffee types.

The Golden One PWO of Metal and Glory – Spotify

My Spotify playlist – The Golden One PWO of Metal and Glory – is now inactive. I simply had enough of Spotify’s “woke” pushiness and censoring of right-wing podcasts.

Below are a few music channels on Odysee which you can check out. Also, make sure to sign up to Odysee using my link: https://odysee.com/$/invite/@thegoldenone:a. I am not sure for how long I will be on YouTube, and I have already begun posting exclusive content there.

Elessar, long time Trve Friend. His track, which he made alongside Xurious, is one of my favourite tracks of all time. It is just unreasonably good!

Music by another friend of mine, VMVXEC, is also available on Odysee.

As is Hiraeth.

I will continue to update this list and promote good artists who create channels on Odysee.

Angel’s Triumph – Symbolism and Networking

Behold!

New releases for Legio Gloria. This article will explain the thoughts behind the new design. Moreover, I just sent out a Legio Gloria newsletter. Signing up for that newsletter is the best way to stay updated on the clothing.

The Angel’s Triumph – T-Shirt design symbolises the triumph of good versus evil, which is a common theme in human myth. We live in an age where demonic forces, for lack of a better description, are on the rise. Talking about demonic forces might sound a bit too dramatic, but the further along the path of enlightenment you have travelled, the truer this statement will sound.

The washing instruction for the t-shirt (picture at the bottom of the article) includes a ‘No-Communism’ sign. I thought it was a nice touch that fitted the theme of the design. The angel on the hoodie is the same as on the t-shirt, but in gold, matching the Legio Gloria emblem embroidery on the front. Burgundy and gold go well together, aesthetically speaking.

Moreover, in my previous Legio Gloria newsletter, I wrote the following about the Theseus’ MMA Shorts: Theseus is a classical Hellenic hero, and the Minotaur is a high testosterone beast. As with all Legio Gloria designs, this is meant to inspire you to set a high pace in your given endeavour. Perhaps you are sparring, or rolling, against a larger and more experienced opponent, then envision yourself as Theseus fighting the Minotaur. Preparing for some heavy deadlifts in the gym? Envision the Primordial Beast coming to you in the shape of a Minotaur, lending you strength.

On another note, something which always makes me happy to hear, is when guys have recognised like-minded individuals in public when wearing Legio Gloria clothing. I have heard similar stories about Jotunheim Nutrition shakers in gyms in Sweden.

When designing clothes there are many different choices to be made. One such choice is whether to go with a discreet design or a design that is more eye-catching. The more eye-catching ones serve a good purpose in that they are easily recognisable, making it easier to recognise a potential friend. Another reason is, of course, to serve as motivation for the wearer. Looking yourself in the mirror whilst wearing a certain garment is supposed to give you additional strength (as explained above).

A note on the t-shirt. The reason for not going with regular or organic cotton for the new t-shirt, as for the other t-shirts, is so that the design itself is inside the cloth, as opposed to on top of it. Simply put, the design would not have been possible with another material. Speaking of which, it is very soft and comfortable. Coming t-shirts will be in organic cotton though, as will coming poloshirts.

That being said, I wish everyone a high energy and productive week ahead. And don’t forget to check in on Gab (and follow me there: @TheGoldenOne) next Friday for the weekly Fizeek Friday. It is highly motivating.

Lastly, if you see this, I salute you. Taking the time to read an article, instead of just mindlessly scrolling, is a sign of a disciplined mind.
