    I am a bit of a Weeb and was just browsing through a thing about news and saw this very interesting video. It’s a bit long so I’ll put a summary below if you don’t want to watch it. But then I’m going to then go into a little ramble about ‘what’s it all about?’…

    YouTube is like a charity shop. Most of what is there is complete shit. 99% of content is the digital equivalent of a tatty Katie Price book or a phone case for a phone that was last manufactured 9 years ago. It just needs deleting. It has no function, purpose or value and sooner or…

    Last summer I went to Thailand and was driving from Chiang Rai to Chiang Mai, it is about 2 hours on a motorbike and oh what wonders to behold, I don’t know if I imagined it because it was a hot day, but I drove past an abandoned theme park with a big caterpillar dressed…

Let’s see I discovered this amazing YouTube channel called Elephant Graveyard, they do these takedowns on American comedians, but what sets them apart is the Adam Curtis skill they have where the camera lingers on the performers looking a bit sad about their performance.
