Oh my god, that was the BRILLIANT. I am laughing so much. And now I know how to pronounce Temptalia properly! (I’ve always pronounced it “temp-tay-lee-ah rather than temp-tah-lee-ah.)

Also, as someone who is trying to get in to SFX makeup but is on a seriously limited budget, this is SO helpful.

My mom constantly calls it something else that SOUNDS kind of like Temptalia because she can’t EVER seem to remember the proper name. A few times she called it “tarantula.com” and that’s actually where I got the joke for the intro 😉

I’ve become so obsessed with his Raven Insane character! I kind of want him to have his own channel year-round! Dusty is so creative and talented
