I enjoy videos by this lady who is some kind of train enthusiast. She takes her son (I think?) with her most of the time which is nice. In this video she goes on some luxe as hell express train which has a beautiful dark paint job. It is raining and the rain looks good on the expensive paint job. The inside of the train also looks v nice. I bet it costs fucking heaps to go on this train.

I’ve really been enjoying Popular C/C. It’s focus is on the intersection between the media and leftist politics, or lack thereof.

I’d never heard of Bring Us Home before, and this video explains it and how successful this protest movement was, as well as what imperialist bullshit led to it:

I’m addicted to looking at LEGO builds now thanks. I think the interviewer for this channel is really good at getting even non-social or nervous or inelequent builders to talk. He’s very positive and always seems like he has genuine interest in the builds.

My grandma used to buy me LEGO sets every year for Christmas when I was a kid so I have some pretty intense nostalgia for it. Ordered a set, so I’m playing with LEGOs for the first time in at least a decade this weekend.

Channel of a professional art restorer. He places emphasis on everything he does being reversible because in some cases, his clients ask for “repair” work which essentially entails him re-painting damaged portions of the works. Fascinating stuff.

I really like the way the camera is set behind the conductor like this instead of a typical dash cam. It gives a much better sense of scale!

i’ve never been a person who pays attention to chess as a sport – i own a book about the game and have won once against a cousin who used to participate in state tournaments, but that’s it.

having said that, this channel is amazing. i like how easy-spoken the guy is, and how all these strategies are laid out in the most plain way. i obviously miss a lot from what is shown and can’t possibly imagine myself operationalizing the ideas that go into any competent-level play; still fun though

bonus: this professional player’s channel, specially a video in which she comentates on a match between two computers
