I've always been terrified of dancing in public cause I can't dance for shit but at the same time it was always something I've wanted to do. Last friday I went to a small party with coworkers and after drinking a lot I, for the first time, decided to join them and dance. Drunk me is just as bad at dancing as sober me but didn't really care lol. It was fun and I had a great time. That's all really, just felt like sharing a small victory. Maybe I'll pick up dancing someday.
Kinda late to the party here but I'll share a couple of my favorites:
Melodysheep - video essays about science and science fiction with absurdly high quality animations and production value
Mustard - same as above, except about interesting and/or unusual real vehicles
Casually Explained - just a dude with a great sense of humor and crude artwork explaining random things to you
Sam O'Nella Academy - same as above, except covering very specific and much weirder topics
Biblaridion - his usual content is about conlangs (don't ask, I don't know either) but his ongoing Alien Biospheres series about speculative evolution is simply amazing
TierZoo - highly entertaining videos about animals and zoology, except it's all a videogame
LowSpecGamer - as the name implies, he used to make videos about making AAA games run on potato systems but has since pivoted into making (great) mini docs about the history of videogames and technology
Cyriak - he doesn't post often but the dude has been making the same kind of technically impressive and often disturbing animations for over 15 years now
For me the main draw was always being able to freely explore their beautiful handmade worlds, be it Tamriel or a post-nuclear US. You always knew you'd find something interesting around the next corner. I'd be happy with this being just Fallout in space too but it seems Starfield is mostly procedurally generated and you can't even drive any vehicles so in that front they lost most of my interest.
I don't know what makes you think South Americans are not under US influence cause I can tell you things in Brazil look exactly the same: Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Twitter... well, Whatsapp is also absurdly popular around here but I don't think it qualifies.
I held a small snake on my hands during a school trip a long time ago. I remember it felt leathery, kinda rubbery, and not slimy at all. What shocked me the most though was that it was cold, which is not surprising since it's a cold-blooded animal, but still felt so wrong to me as someone who had only ever been around cats and dogs.
This is so sweet. Getting to show cool stuff you like to your kids must be one of the best things about being a parent. If I ever end up becoming one I'll show my kids all the great Pixar movies and also the Emperor's New Groove cause that one is a classic.
This is amazing. I feel enlightened and the cube is my new religion. I must spread the word and tell everyone that pizzas are toasts and hotdogs are tacos.
