does anyone know any particularly comfy youtubers or podcasts?

i'm always looking for something comfy or interesting to listen to in my spare time, and listening to people talk helps me relax a lot.

one podcast i'm a fan of is the wisenheimers podcast which was two animators from newgrounds talking about stupid shit. it ended a while a go, but managed to be pretty funny and chill while it lasted.

i also some lets players like vinesauce, jontron era game grumps and another guy called manlybadasshero who mostly does horror game lp's, but i havent found anything as comfy as i would prefer.

I have a few car related channels that I find particularly comfy. I really enjoy watching people put so much love into their cars, just working on em and driving about.

M359 restorations: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLLpxcworT8275nBXODXyqw
This guy will get on plane to inspect and buy a car, take some footage of his mini-holiday, then go back home to Germany and fix the car to sell on. I'm not super into BMWs, but the format is way more comfy and personal than the high production stuff that lots of channels already put out, and his love for the cars and attention to detail in the repairs is really nice to watch.

runningfree86: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeT4OKP6HEXFzb-YrMi4Mrw
An OG Japanese drifter, and probably one of the best AE86 drivers around today. He has lots of videos of working on the car with his young daughter, who's probably gonna grow up to be the greatest AE86 mechanic in the world. He's recently started uploading vids with english subs which is nice, but even watching his driving is incredible, he has such a graceful old school style comapared to the loud, big power, big slides style that's popular nowadays.

Noriyaro and heymanrobbie: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZGkMJEmCR1IqUduqt1uFUw, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4SuAwedzsMx57p7yfceokQ
These two are more driving/drifting focused, but watching them go about about Japan and get footage of all the different car stuff people do is great.

I'm still amazed at the lack of self-awareness of his Cicero video. He calls him the greatest roman statesman and praises his name to high heaven, but all he ever talks about Cicero doing is him being a carny who had no real influence in the course of roman politics.

 No.8858

>>8846
A pervasive hagiography has grown around Cicero and his writings, which I think is largely because of the outsize influence they had on the Renaissance and Enlightenment, but he really was pretty important in his day. He can rightfully be called the father of Latin rhetoric, and by extension of the western rhetorical tradition as a whole, and was recognized as such during his life even by Caesar himself. It was his misfortune to have been born a Roman in the twilight of the republic.

I think because he mostly focuses on warfare and specific political events the video guy ended up glossing over a lot of that without realizing that because most of his viewers aren't classicists the name Cicero doesn't have the weight he thinks it does.

how do you guys feel about livestreamers? specifically video game streamers? cause I know a few, one being One Doomed Game Critic on youtube. he only streams on sundays mostly tho

I don't really play games much anymore, and letsPlays (or just recorded streams) are a nice way to still get to see new ones and be in the know without spending as much time and effort on it. Mostly it's about the personality and banter of the person playing anyway.
But something I've noticed, games that are fun to play are generally boring to watch, and the other way around, games that can be boring to play are often pretty chill to watch.

I like Joel and Vinny (though I never catch them live, just keep up with the uploads) cause they feel chill and old school. Most others I've seen feel too tryhard and put on.

This is kinda reverse, but there's this cooking channel (I think?) I remember from years ago that I can't find anymore. Not sure if it was just one vid or every vid, but the one I remember he made some recipe from medieval times (IIRC) that was fried battered fish, and he had this shtick that he chopped everything with a big ass sword.
If anybody knows what I'm talking about I'd be super stoked, haven't seen the vid in 10+ years and it'd be such a nostalgia trip, was one of the first things I cooked that wasn't just noodles or pasta.

Picrel is Driving Nippon, comfy silent driving on various roads and highways in Japan. If you like Rambalac, it's pretty much the same thing, but inside a car.

I've also been watching James Blackwood: https://www.youtube.com/user/vjamb

I watch Vinesauce Joel, my favourite stuff is the bootleg streams since stuff gets pretty crazy there, seeing how bootleggers grabbed a very popular IP and twisted it and jammed it somewhere it does not belong. Or in case of the russian roms it gets pretty scary.
I mainly watch the streams of weird stuff, his normal streams don't interest me much because there's nothing amazingly strange to discover there; unless the game being streamed is weird like Harvester.
Many complain about him being obnoxious and prefer Vinny instead, but his vocal deliveries seem a bit too deadpan for my likening. Though I did like some of his streams, I wouldn't sit down and watch a bunch of streams of his.

I find Joel kind of frustrating when he spends ages making silly jokes and ends up forgetting what he's supposed to be doing in the game he's playing or whatever. But he's a likeable guy and I do enjoy his streams from time to time.

I'll admit I'm extremely easily entertained so someone spending 20 minutes real-time-photoshopping random shit and funny mustaches on things is usually hilarious to me, I love things like the Soul Calibur 3 stream too. But I get what you mean, it's bothered me in the past even. It wouldn't really be Joel if he didn't though.

I don't know what she's up to nowadays but Artemis was off the beaten path when she was just starting up. iirc one of her early streams was just minesweeper.

I'm not aware of anyone who streams a lot of bootleg or unknown indie games like they do sadly (also it sucks that Vinesauce is on hiatus, I usually put on their twitch streams to fall asleep).
Personally I like Lily Hopkins, Pikamee, and Kumagai Chisato but, while cute, none of them really fit the bill.

VTubers exist to appeal to lonely nerds like e-thots from my understanding. There would be no market for engaging or bizzare content because that would distract the viewer from the virtual anime girl on screen, which seems to be the main attraction in these things.

>Fan consents to having sex with Vinny

>Vinny stops streaming because he hired up a lawyer and thus didn't want to ruin his image by saying something that could frame him.
>Lot of other people also tried cancelling him (Mandalore, GeePM, a mod) at the same time this happened as if it was orchestrated
It's just something that shouldn't have happened but it did. All around stupid, Vinny should've just ignored it but he's emotionally fragile so I guess that got to him.

Beats me. My best guess is mob mentality and being drunk on a feeling of moral superiority.

I personally don't follow any social media personalities. I have friends that do though. In my heart, I wish they didn't because of how unhealthy parasocial relationships are, but I'll never tell them that.

I'm not the guy you're responding to but parasocial relationships has become a recent target of study in sociology and psychology because of the unique way that internet celebrities and their fans relate to one another. Because these relationships more closely resemble personal friendships and experiences, certain individuals develop a feeling as though the person they are watching IS their friend and someone they know, even though the person they're watching doesn't know them as n individual. This kind of relationship is deemed "parasocial" because it artificially conjures social related feelings in the watcher despite no real social relationship existing. It's an interesting phenomenon but it's not a "silly word" and to some of the viewers these people are more than "entertainers" - they really do feel a social bond with these strangers. There is no social distance between viewers and streamers like there was with stars and fans - this means less obsessive worship, but greater feelings of social bond despite none existing.

Please, share your thoughts.

I'm this sushi >>11112 >>11114. I'll try to keep it short. Spoiler for uncomfy.
I mentioned parasocial relations because I've met people who are emotionally attached to entertainers as if they were real friends with them (e.g. keeping track of who they're dating, keeping track of who's in their friend group, and, as in this case, who they've slept with.) This isn't really a new idea since gossip magazines have been around for about a century, but I feel alienated by how we can spend our lives thinking about people who don't even know we exist.

But I know people are free to do what they want, which is why I usually keep it to myself (not in these few posts, though. I kind of let loose and barfed all over this nice thread, sorry.) There's nothing wrong with "parasocial relationships." I don't want to stop my friends from doing the things they enjoy because I have made some funny observation about it. Heck, I didn't want to get all "up in your' face" with all the sushis here, which is why I cut myself short.

I like watching Akihito Yoshitomi. His sketches are very comfy to watch.
