What kind of weird stuff did I sell on eBay today you ask? - Tom Ray's Day 200725


What kind of weird stuff did I sell on eBay today you ask? Well, let me show you! 

Check out my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/tmray

I like to go through some of the pop-culture retro things I collect from the '50s through the 90's I sold on eBay before I ship them off so I can take one last look at the things. This time I got an old blooper book from TV and Radio, a wooden tow truck from the 30s believe it or not and some toys and other stuff. I dunno I enjoy them :)

Plus at the end of the video, I draw my daily autobiographical webcomic.

Another look at my daily life since I decided to sell collectibles and pop-culture items I collect on eBay to help support my art career instead of starting a Patreon or taking on freelance work.

How I use one Gmail address for multiple Soundcloud accounts

Do you know the Gmail "+" trick to use one email for multiple accounts on one service? Here's a little trick I use that works for any service.  I talked about this on the podcast episode I did with artist Mortimur K . In this case, let's say I used up all the uploads I have for my free Soundcloud account . With this trick, I can open a new free account and use the same Gmail address. I don't want to create another Gmail account to sign up again.  Using my one Gmail address for multiple accounts on the same service I don't remember when I learned this but you can alter the name on a Gmail address. Like, let's say mine is "tom@gmail.com". To be clear that is not my email. I wish it was, but this is just a short example. Start with the original Gmail address Add a "+" after the email name Where it says "tom" on the address I can put a "+" after that. Add a "+" after the email name After that "+" I ca...

Artwork for the original Candy Land game by Milton Bradley from 1955.

I have a vintage Candy Land game from 1955 by Milton Bradley and I was about to sell it so I thought I would add it to my personal art history course concept I've been doing . I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949. In every version of the game, there are a group of children that go through Candy Land. In the earliest versions of the game, it was a realistically drawn boy and girl. Drawing of the Candy Land kids I did on my phone ☝ https://board-games-galore.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land The game was designed in 1948 by Eleanor Abbott , while she was recovering from polio in San Diego, California. It's rumored that Eleanor also did the original artwork but I didn't find anything that...

How I came up with the name of my band Lorenzo's Music? Clip from Tha Bloc Report Podcast

  How we came up with our band name Lorenzo's Music? In this clip from an interview I did on Tha Bloc Report Podcast , I answer the question everyone always asks about my band Lorenzo's Music ...  Q: Where did the band name come from? Because I'm thinking Lorenzo Music. And then I'm thinking, Garfield. Yes, you are actually correct! That's where it came from.  And then the apostrophe "S" was added because we were afraid of getting sued so it was to confuse people. And what people used to think is it was like the movie Lorenzo's Oil. But it's been so long now, and more people are farther away from that movie that we don't get that reference as much anymore. People are starting to figure out the Garfield connection again.  So the story of how we came up with our band name? Essentially what happened was, I came home one night when our drummer Rob and I first got the idea for the band it was back when Nick at Nite used to actually play much old...
