Nefara, in Which YouTuber still creates high-quality videos to this day?

A bunch of my other subs have already been mentioned, so I want to add Caitlin from Ask a Mortician. She has demonstrated integrity and consistently high effort for her channel despite growing to over 2mil subscribers.

Jenny Nicholson is another that’s been around and gotten big but her videos have only gotten more weird and interesting.

Climate Town has rapidly become one of my favorite channels and consistently puts out well-researched, informative and entertaining vids

scytale, (edited ) in Texans (or neighbours), how was the cold spell?

I’m just happy we didn’t lose power or water. Had to cancel some appointments because I didn’t want to risk driving even though there was barely any precipitation (therefore ice). Now I hope my car starts when I go out later.

Thorny_Insight, in What do you follow to keep track of new media releases?

I don’t. Same as with news; if it’s important I’m going to hear about it one way or another. Otherwise I’m fine just staying out of the loop.

ALostInquirer,

To clarify a little, I was asking more about things where…Importance isn’t so much a factor. It’s more to do with wanting to know whatever new oddity might be around to check out. Passivity in this situation is allowing others to have more input on what reaches you, which isn’t always reliable if you want to explore different stuff.

I need to figure out a better way to frame this question. 🤔

_number8_, in Is it just my circle, or has it been a challenge getting into the Christmas/holiday spirit the last couple of years?

definitely. i’m usually dreading the part right after opening gifts. – the whole day feels stagnant and dead, everything is shut, there’s nothing to do but wait for how shitty jan and feb will be. brutal dead awful months

Xariphon,

Seriously fuck winter

shyguyblue, in Texans (or neighbours), how was the cold spell?

Other have said it, but there wasn’t the freezing rain like last time.

That being said, it still didn’t stop my brain from turning every single pop and groan of the house settling into “the pipes just burst, now panic!”, so that sucked…

But roads are clear, the frost isn’t sticking and so far *knocks on wood, i still have power.

Let’s put this out onto a tray.

Blaze, in Texans (or neighbours), how was the cold spell?

Just FYI, there is a similar conversation ongoing on !casualconversation

ratman150, in Texans (or neighbours), how was the cold spell?

I’m 20 miles south of Sherman TX and while I didn’t see nearly as much snow/ice as they did I did get a lovely stealth ice that coated my neighborhood. Temps got to 7-8°f I was prepared and we were comfortable. Until today I hadn’t heard of any busted pipes but my office and some other people have been flooded by them now lol.

People panic bought on the weekend which was fun to watch.

pearsaltchocolatebar, in Texans (or neighbours), how was the cold spell?

Not too bad. We had a tiny bit of snow and some ice, but didn’t lose power which was nice since we have reptiles and I was not looking forward to trying to keep them alive.

I also got to stress test my Freeze Meisters (exterior faucet attachment that drips water), and thankfully they worked.

Lifecoach5000, in Texans (or neighbours), how was the cold spell?

Not a fan. My house isn’t built for when the temp starts dipping into the teens. Glad we’re finally getting a break today with some slightly above freezing temps and some sunshine.

Could’ve been A LOT WORSE so I am still thankful.

No precipitation to speak of so it wasn’t that bad. Nothing really closed down and the roads were good. Supposed to be 72 degrees (22c) tomorrow, thank fuck.

shalafi, (edited ) in What groups you are unwillingly associated with? How you handle it?

I’m very much into guns, have 35-45 or so, depending on your definition of “gun”. I particularly like buying old crappy ones and fixing them up. They aren’t “safe queens” either, I shoot every one of them at times, and shoot almost every weekend at my camp in the swamp.

I am liberal in about every other aspect and given the GOP’s behavior since Obama took office, I’m voting straight ticket D till the day I die. I loathe being lumped in with the right-wingers and their attitudes.

Decoy321,

Hello fellow liberal gun owner! It’s good to see more of us out here. It fucking annoys me to no end whenever we get lumped together with that nonsense.

someguy3, in Are there any apps with kind of an educational feed for mindless scrolling?

Podcasts for longer boredom sessions.

I always enjoy reading Popular Mechanics magazines. They have a digital subscription available.

banneryear1868, in Which of your favorite creators content quality went downhill very quickly?

Andrew Callaghan sad to say because I was a huge fan and I guess there’s been actual rape allegations come out although he hasn’t been charged with anything so who knows. That style of journalism I just love so much and he is so good at it so it’s a shame.

militaryintelligence,

2 women said he tried to have sex with them and made them uncomfortable. There are allegations of sexual assault, however I’m withholding judgment. Dude seems to drink a lot.

dangblingus,

In case you’re wondering, it’s called “Gonzo Journalism”. He’s following in the footsteps of Hunter S Thompson.

Yeah, this one hits home. Recently he tried to put out a few videos, haven’t watched them, kind of waiting for someone else to dissect it for me because yeah…

banneryear1868,

I watched them and they were alright. It’s disturbing how serious the allegations are yet no legal actions are being taken against him. It’s like he’s in this place of irredeemable limbo. I’ve volunteered with inmates and believe people can be redeemed but not if they can’t face their wrongdoings.

DigitalTraveler42,

He went from looking like he was going to have his own HBO series, to almost completely disappearing, also the allegations were by underage girls and he acknowledged the allegations as true from what I remember.

banneryear1868, (edited )

From what I understand he was a freshman or close to it as well. Wouldn’t surprise me though.
