To me, her YouTube channel encapsulates all the best parts of being vegan, eating at home and work in practical ways, and the excitement of going to a new vegan spot and trying their flagship items. Side note: I would also love to see a channel like this based in Philly, trying different places

the video essayists
🌟defunctland: classic. i feel like this is the basic answer for anyone who’s into video essays, but you must understand that i’ve been a theme park fiend since childhood and used to watch defunctland long before he blew up, so he’s special to me.
🌟contrapoints: whoever LIED and told me she did something really fucked up, leading me to take a year-long break from her content, is going to hell. so damn smart. baltimore legend.
🌟broeydeschanel: my favorite film critic. sensible, funny, and generally way more thoughtful with her critiques than other influencer critic types.
book recs
🌟bigbooklady: great recommendations that are outside of the run-of-the-mill indie girl genre
🌟ana wallace: same deal but more mature. opens my eyes & tastes in a way that social media doesn’t allow for
🌟carley thorne: standup comedian and booktube veteran with a balance of popular and niche recs. retired from booktube-ing for a style that i’m not jazzed about, but i still love her.
lifestyle/vlog-y
🌟linh truong: i’ve been following them since high school and we’re the same age. big comfort creator, i think i’ve seen nearly every video
🌟benjiplant: goated interior design content. unfortunately, he and his partner’s home was destroyed by the los angeles fires. go watch his videos and don’t you dare skip the ads!!
🌟kate brock: vibes. good vlogs, good outfits. lots of comfort
🌟halle burns: another creator close to my age who makes wonderful, comforting content. i’m not a vegan but i loveee to watch her put together the craziest veg food combos.
🌟2014 dan and phil: not much else to say here!

Lived in southeastern pa my entire life and always enjoyed fishing and hiking growing up. Been spending the last few years reading and learning more about properly identifying the native and invasive flora in our area. So many delicious edible berries/fruits and mushrooms to be had, just have to know what you’re looking for.

Preying on insecurities is morally repulsive, but it does offer some of the most appealing packaging; scratch offs, energy drinks, gas station dick pills. Some shit screaming at you in all caps reading MONEY TIME and you think, “yeah, maybe my life can change too”. And even if we all know that its promise is hollow, just being in the presence of such boldness is comforting.
