#it’s not a YouTube video. it’s not an audiobook. it’s not a podcast.
Text
was completely mystified for days by my cousins being like “let’s watch a movie!” and then BOTH OF THEM proceeding to stare at their phones throughout the entire film, glancing at the screen only whenever the dialogue or a musical cue implied that something Important was happening, only to realize that the issue is that modern films don’t rely on nearly as many purely visual elements as older films did, so my poor cousins missed over 50% of the jokes because i didn’t think to warn them that, when watching films directed by people who got their start before films had dialogue, you actually need to WATCH them to understand what is happening.
#realized this AS i was reading a review of the film i watched tonight and suddenly it ALL clicked#the visual gags were their favorite parts too - they just didn’t know they missed at least 90% of them 😂😂#i mean. personally i put everything aside when watching a film regardless of when it came out#which DOES sometimes result in me getting bored#but like. tough cookies. that’s what i signed up for#it’s not a YouTube video. it’s not an audiobook. it’s not a podcast.#you have to WATCH it#if you don’t want to watch a movie then that’s cool#but don’t say you do and then look at your phone the whole time - ya know?#i feel like i’m gonna have to start clarifying this with people beforehand#because i DO have movies i would put on if people’s mileage was ‘vaguely entertaining background noise for my phone scrolling’#but you’re not getting one of the Good Ones if that’s all you’re looking for#not even because i’m being judgey but because it fails to fulfill that purpose#they’re films that require your full attention#so if you can’t give them that - they won’t give anything back to you#i think that’s fair to say#oh also meant to mention that my cousins have degrees in theater and art respectively#so i just assumed they would inherently Get this#but they DIDN’T#and i was Not Prepared

hello I’ve recently gotta super into long form youtube videos, eg video essays, people reacting to/summarising books and movies, people talking about/summarising TikTok drama etc and I’ve watched a bunch already
BUT I would love if anybody has recommendations for people they enjoy or like or think are worth watching <3 or recommendations of any kind really!!
#turns out I can’t do podcasts or audiobooks#but if you take that podcast and turn it into a YouTube video where I can see the person#even if they’re just sitting there talking#my brain is like 👁️ 👁️

I think the worst autism "treatment" I've ever seen is going "low dopamine". Excuse me? Usually people suggest this to make me faster at my job, in the context of not listening to anything while I work. Imagine caring about capitalism so much that you willingly Do Not Experience Joy for the Entire Day just to make more money for you supervisor's manager's department head's CEO. You have to be kidding me. I would rather lose focus 27x every hour than intentionally avoid dopamine during work. Bye
#no ma'am my job is super boring and repetitive#I listen to podcasts#audiobooks#YouTube videos#shows I've seen a lot of times#or music#and i think if I did my job in silence I would explode

the absolute agony of trying to find something to watch/listen to while you draw that’s engaging enough to keep you entertained but not distracting but also you’re brain’s in a real specific mood today and you don’t know what the helllllll it wants
#usually video essays are my go to - or podcasts or audiobooks or somethin like that#but my brain is NOT havin it today#so i am left to wander the wastes of youtube and netflix desperately searching for something to appease my asshole brain#so it'll let me draw in peace#adhd is fun

#didn’t really clock how much my inability to allow myself to experience or express negative emotions is like. ruining my life.#i joke about it sometimes but it feels a little telling that except for the first few days after it happened i didn’t actually cry about#my boyfriend going radio silent for three weeks and then dumping me out of nowhere after saying that all of those things were things he#didn’t want. and then when we were talking it out after and i expressed that i was pretty blindsided by that. whole thing. and that it#sucked to not have any information for the last several weeks of our relationship. he just never responded.#<- other than the few days after the breakup i wasn’t able to cry about all that until. checks watch. saturday. like last saturday#almost three months later#and like. not allowing myself to exist in silence. i couldn’t listen to music for like a month after that. maybe more. i still kind of can’t#i mostly listen to podcasts and audiobooks or play youtube videos#my dreams haven’t been this bad since high school#odhran.txt#anyway. sorry about ^ all that. but also this is my house

Hank Garner over at Story Crafter's Cafe had a conversation with Roger Clark and authors Jaime Castle and Rhett C. Bruno, whose most recent work includes the successful book (and audiobook) Cold As Hell.
In this highlight, they discuss how writing can be a difficult task and what motivates some to keep going.
To all my writer peeps, I hope this can serve as a source of motivation. As Roger said, "all writers go through that", so if you are staring at your notepad or screen and are having a hard time coming up with ideas, rest assured it's all part of the process and it STILL counts. Whether you are a fanfic writer or a full professional writer, I hope this can help you in some way.
Listen to the full conversation

can you make a guide on it girl christmas
Dream girl winter
External glow
hydration
drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, use products rich in ingredients such as hyalurinic acid, glycerin and ceramides which strengthen your skin's natural moisture barrier. In winter give priority to the product which gives priority hydration and nutrition of the skin. Don't forget to moisturize your lips and protect your skin with a broad-spectrum sunscreen offering at least SPF 30.
shower routine
Your shower routine literally determines how you smell throughout the day. Find a signature scent and find suitable products. I love the products from Sol de Janeiro, Dove and Philosophy. You can also use the ordinary glycolic acid as a deodorant personally I only use it twice a week and I use a deodorant from Dove. Do a body scrub every week to get rid of dead skin. I recommend the one from Tree Hut which is good too. Use a body lotion and also a scented mist.
take care of yourself
take a day to take care of your nails, your hairstyle to do your eyelashes etc. you can also go to a spa to have a massage or something else. really take advantage of this day to have fun, rest and make yourself beautiful.
workout
you don't need to spend hours at the gym, invest 20 to 30 minutes of your day to move your body every day. you can find workout videos on YouTube of 30 min,I also recommend the 5000 step workout.
Makeup
start by applying your moisturizer before putting on makeup, then use a foundation with a dewy finish, put on concealer, brow tint or clear brow gel, mascara, For the blush, opt for a creamy blush Because the creamy finish will give you glow,Don't forget the nourishing lip gloss or lip oil to make lips shiny and vibrant.
Diet
use the 80/20 rule this rule suggests focusing on a healthy and balanced diet 80% of the time and treating yourself the remaining 20% example
Internal glow
inner self care
journals and practices meditation. Take a moment for yourself every day to write down your thoughts, relax and chase away negative thoughts.
7+ hour of sleep
give your body the rest it needs, give yourself at least 7 hours of restful sleep each night to allow your skin to repair and regenerate.
read books
Read books that entertain you, inspire you, and help you become better. you can also listen to podcasts or audiobooks.
social media detox
take a step back, limit your time on social media and focus on what really matters. put your phone on do not disturb mode and try doing an activity like cooking, knitting or something you enjoy.
Romantizing life
winter vision board
use Pinterest to find images that match your aesthetic, winter looks, fun activities, anything that makes you happy. Then create a vision board that you can put as your wallpaper.
Winter bucket list
now make your bucket list. write down all the activities and experiences you want to have during this winter. check off each activity as you accomplish them to feel proud.
create your playlist
create a playlist with songs that make you feel good, happy and that match your aesthetic.
romantizing life technique
enjoy cups of hot chocolate while watching your favorite series or movie, listen to your playlist while you walk, take photos of the landscape or make a mini blog of your days, spend time with your family, cook with your friends or alone, organize cozy evenings, take care of yourself and create good memories.
New year
set yourself goals
Take your time to write down all your goals for the new year. These should be achievable goals that you know you can actually achieve. Visualize yourself achieving all of your goals and working towards them throughout the year.
Life vision board
create a vision board for the new year. use images, quotes and words to represent what you want to accomplish and how you want to feel throughout the year. look at the board every day to stay motivated and focused on your goals.

Abigail - iPhone’s share your location feature, the Parent Teacher Association, audiobooks
Arthur - Remote control racing cars (aarwh it’s a toy boat!), the catch and cook youtube videos, Cowboy Carter by Beyoncé, free healthcare mayhaps…..
John - Maury, The sassy man apocalypse on TikTok, Sitting and watching Bluey in a trance with Abigail after Jack has already gone to bed

Sean - Getting drunk at local football games and heckling the other team, claiming he’s not into Karen’s reality shows but then standing there watching the whole episode with his arms crossed while asking her about every single person and their drama, would most definitely be famous for yapping on Twitter, Derry Girls would be his fave show

Hi! I want to learn French and Russian. Could you share your favourite resources for beginners? Could you also include books and movies/TV shows recommendations for both languages in your post? Thank you.
That's really cool that you want to learn those languages!!!
I have a bunch of Russian resources that I used because I started out as solely self-learning. So a large part in my absolute beginner phase I spent listening to podcasts, specifically, these: understanding spoken Russian which is great for just getting a feel for the language while also learning a bit of grammar and this one for getting grammar and vocab explained in a very down to earth kind of way without any types of big words you need to know.
Besides these I essentially learned all the Russian grammar I know on Youtube. Especially from this channel. Daria is very cool and also has several podcasts under the same name.
This one has helped me with specific questions about little grammar things, so might also be useful.
Nastya has this year begun doing a Learn Russian in a Year thing where she uploads every day a thirty minute lesson. It's a bit slow for me personally having already learned a lot and just generally me being impatient but it can definitely help with vocab.
He also has good videos and also some free stuff on his website iirc.
For TV shows I unfortunately can't recommend a lot for beginners. What you can do though is watch episodes like Peppa the Pig on Youtube in English and in Russian/French to compare and learn or only in your TL as they're obviously at a low level. What I do highly recommend as a show though is слуга народу for Russian and Lupin for French.
Also, if you're into audiobooks, try typing children audiobooks into Youtube or try listening to the Russian/French version of Harry Potter (that's what I'm doing rn actually).
If you're looking for a book and willing to spend some money I recommend this book with Russian short fiction for beginners. I just finished it and I thought it was very fun with vocab lists and questions for the stories at the end. The same author has also books for higher levels.
Unfortunately, as I learned almost all of French in classes I only have one channel I actually use to recommend, which is this one. You'll find some of my posts where I used this channel as my source.
I hope this helps! I might update in future when I find more. Good luck with your language learning journey!!
