And why did you stop watching them?

    It does help me feel better actually. Thanks!

    I don’t even remember how I found out exactly, but I’m glad I did. I can totally understand how you could miss it. Especially because his videos seemed so tame to begin with.

    Apparently the podcast with Yugopnik had a lot more of this kind of tankie banter.

    Not sure if he was always this way or if it’s a case of “algorithm-driven-personality syndrome” but I still find it sad. :(

    Sidenote: I also got an icky feeling when he’d constantly say “Sponsors won’t touch this content” and immediately started plugging audible and storyblocks or whatever.

    To wrap on a positive note: So far I’ve been enjoying OrdinaryThings for my “Anti-establishment funny well-researched video essay” cravings. :p

      Yeah I’m not sure either. He used to do science-y videos before I started watching and I think his political videos really caught the algorithm which changed what kind of content he made for sure.

      Thanks for the plug! I’ll definitely check them out. I’ve been missing that kinda stuff since all the “Breadtube” people make 2 hour long videos with long breaks now haha
