I'm noticing that I fucked up. When I open my YouTube, it automatically shows me podcasts and political videos from channels I frequent and related stuff. It's not that I'm really in the mood for music very much these days, but I need to reset the algorithm. Every video I'm tempted to click on. I really backed myself into a corner on this. It's been almost nothing but politics for months. I'm suddenly not very up for it anymore.
Just watch 10 true crime or 10 Karen videos. I guarantee things will change quickly. YT loves to push those anyways. I recommend Litty Trends and the Reckoning for the Karen videos. The Reckoning includes information on the consequences Karens face. Code Blue Cam is good for true crime and watching drunkards.

I have 3 hobbies; fixing old cars, Phish/Billy Strings and playing instruments. Maybe get a guitar.
I have two guitars and drums, plus three kids that keep me VERY busy. This is only while I work and stream. Old Drew and Mike shows have been helping.
TROYYYYY! Mmmmmmm.

Got a tennis court nearby? If I gotta burn some frustration/stress, an hour of slamming some ground strokes into a backboard gets me feeling much better.
