Milestone

Six-month arc video live; weekly rhythm and monthly arc cadence locked.

Sleep

6hrs, patchy quality, some dreams, not too groggy, quick to function, mood 5

Cognitive State

Better than the crash, but a sense of resignation. The project isn't going to take off like hoped, but building continues.

Creative Output

'- Six-month arc video: live (flagship, entry point) - Podcast: Waffle 2 recorded but decision made to keep written only going forward - Decision: Monthly podcast for highlights only

Strategic Developments

'- Weekly rhythm confirmed: weekdays = high-value content, weekend = Waffle (written) - Monthly arc cadence: Swamp next, then Pink Cloud (August), Flatlands (September), Frequencies (October), Filing System (November), complete by December - Resignation: the project isn't going to take off like hoped, but building continues - Phase Two principle: high-value content only for broadcast; infrastructure stays written - Slow upswing in progress — crash is easing - Category of one confirmed — no one else is doing this
