I dreamed last night about finding a playlist of 55 or so videos published by some probably 30-something white guy from the suburban USA around 2011. The playlist was titled something like "various rants", but really these videos weren't "rants" at all, they were 5~12 minute videos of this guy just being overwhelmingly and infectiously positive rambling about all his frivolous hobbies, mainly anime, video games, and Nerf guns. He seemed autistic if I'm being honest.
Now on the one hand, it feels kind of pathetic to be dreaming about wasting an hour or two on watching old YouTube reviews, 'cause that's like three layers of unreality... But on the other hand, I kind of wish this YouTuber was real. So if you know any old YouTubers matching this description, please send them to me.
I came across a video from an old account. Asian guy, met his love when they were late teens. Had two, maybe three kids. His wife died in her early 50s to leukemia last month. There were quite a lot of content, with the children and with them enjoying. It was heartbreaking and soothing at the same time, and I kinda liked the YouTube of that era.
Here's the link to the video
Well shit, now I'm crying.
vibe killer
The recommended video that popped up immediately after this was "Actors Who Stood Up To Woke Hollywood" with a thumbnail of Chris Pratt on some talk show with the text "f*ck your pronouns". Jesus Christ, YouTube, read the room!
Awh, that's sad that she died.
Edit: Saw the link to the video now, watching
