We get bombarded by a lot of shit all year round, from governments, media sites to the dying old media. Under this constant barrage of sewage, it's good to have things you can escape to rather than just sit there and absorbing it all like a Liberal arts student.
So whether it's working out, taking walks in a park, gaming, anime or sneaking your trash into that annoying neighbour you have, it's the little things in life.
And although we can hate the management at the top, Youtube is still the number one in terms of content creators and podcasts so what have you enjoyed on that side that stop you looking at bulldozer sales.
I've every week enjoyed Solus Astorias comic dubs, Templin Institute when they are active (off for holidays), Count Dankula and when they drop the Kane Pixels backrooms series showing a teenager has more talent than 99% of Hollywood and media giants. And let's not forget the foriegn market though that language barrier will only last so long to keep out the leftists..
I've been going hard on podcasts for the last couple of years.
Huberman Lab podcast is basically the owners manual for your brain.
Jocko podcast for war stories. His podcasts on the Vietnam POWs and their stories are really humbling. Now whenever something someone else does is bothering me I imagine that I'm a prisoner and the jailers are using whatever that annoyance is to break me mentally so I hand over Intel, which makes me realize whatever it is isn't that bad and I need to stop being a pussy.
Martyr Made podcasts for some deep dives into history. Matt Walsh is as close as I come to a "news" source, is funny enough and has some decently based takes for a normiecon who is hamstrung by who he is working for. Red Ice podcast for even more basedness. I even listen to Ben Shapiro sometimes but tune out whenever he talks about international stuff because the zionism agenda is so obvious once you are clued in.

A guy living in the woods by himself and making stuff with a chainsaw. Has a really good attitude and close to a laconic sense of humor.
And I started listening to the Bible on audiobook, straight through. I'm about 1/2 through the new testament.
For games I've been cracking out on Pathfinder Kingmaker the last few months. If you like Baldurs Gate this is a great adaptation. The game is HUGE and has a decent amount of replayability. It has some feminist plot points but imo not worse than you would see in an early 2000s game. Also a bit of faggotry but none of it is plot relevant.
Bit of a cheeky question, since you're half way through the new testament, want to try War and Peace after?
I think I would do Brothers Karamazov first but there is a lot of other literature I would do before hitting Dostoevsky. This is one I've been wanting to pick up.
Maybe I'll finish it before I die.
Yeah, that tends to happen when a bunch of communists put your ankles over your shoulders.
