Really and truly I believe that what we're doing at NEHI and NETV are vital to the future.

When I talk about what we're doing in each of these endeavors, that might seem silly, but I believe it.

So I'm going to talk about what we do, and then I'm goign to talk about why I think it's important.

#NETV is a television network and streaming service based out of Ellijay Georgia. It's Community Media in the kind that I wrote about here: https://communitymedia.network

We have a roku channel and a peertube server and we produce a lot of local content including music gear review shows, sitcoms, and political video essays. We also archive a lot of historical material from film. I've written about this stuff extensively, and I'm not going to re-hash it all here.

#NEHI is our haha only serious name for our manufacturing efforts. We're running a machine shop and making injection molded plastic using environmentally sustainable and horizontally scalable processes.

Most of what we've done so far has been toys, most of what we'll do in the future is toys.

I believe these two things are vital for the same reason:

When we make a toy, that toy supplants something made by a distant corporation using media owned by Disney. When someone watches our news coverage or one of the public domain cartoons we've archived or whatever, that's half an hour they didn't spend watching something owned by Sinclair ( https://communitymedia.video/w/kJ3dojouKA3G5onEaKq1Vu )
