Unfortunately, my video production process has hit an unexpected snag, and it’s not really my fault — it’s due to the latest Gemini update. They’ve completely removed the 3 daily free video production credits, moving everything over to Flow. It’s even stranger; they offer 50 daily credits, but only to non-subscription accounts. I had two separate paid accounts that gave me a total of 1200 credits a month, which I used consistently for my Shorts, Reels, and TikToks — producing 5 videos every single day. Now, those rights have been stripped from my paid accounts. It’s one of the strangest things I’ve ever seen: I’m paying, yet my access is being taken away. Naturally, I’ve canceled those subscriptions.
I’ll keep the Pro membership running for a few more months to use my remaining 1000 monthly credits, and alongside my two free accounts, I now have the capacity to produce 10 clips a day! That’s 70 clips a week. Surprisingly, this has turned out to be more efficient. The only downside is that I can’t upscale to 1080p — if I subscribe, I lose the production capacity, but if I don’t, I lose the quality. It’s a ridiculous dilemma! Aside from that, I’ve started using Claude more actively; unlike Gemini, it communicates much more logically and clearly. This has created a much healthier and more productive dialogue for me.
On another note, I’ve updated my blog icon. Now, when you search for acelya.blog on Google, my own portrait appears as the logo. I’ve also connected my Adriana’s Wings site to Google services, adding a custom display message that makes everything look much more professional. It’s a great step for SEO — every time “Adriana’s Wings” is searched, it will strengthen my digital presence.
As for my body hair, I’m still testing the new hair removal creams I bought. I’ve only been using them for a couple of days, so I’m not expecting an immediate miracle, but I hope for results that will help me feel better psychologically. Regarding weight loss, unfortunately, things aren’t going well. While I’m happy about the growth in my breasts and hips, my belly is also growing. If I were on hormones, this process might be working in my favor, but for now, I’ll just have to wait.
The most difficult news is that I can no longer use my SIM card in the Samsung S24 Ultra I bought in November 2024. Due to my country’s regulations, I would have to pay a registration fee nearly equal to the cost of the phone itself, which I refuse to do. I had to find a backup phone. This really hurt, because I built this entire blog and my YouTube channel from that phone. I wrote 200+ blog posts and redesigned my blog layout dozens of times, all from my phone. It’s a bit heartbreaking.
However, thankfully, I recently bought a laptop, and everything is moving so much more smoothly now. It’s become easier to handle the tasks that were difficult or impossible on a phone. Plus, using two phones simultaneously makes me feel like a business woman. I’ve decided not to mix too many contrasting topics in one post, so I’ll save my other thoughts for future entries. For now, this is enough. Thank you for reading. I wish you days where your words carry real meaning
