She sometimes bleeds more into commentary than straight-up video essays, but she makes compelling, funny and well-researched content, nevertheless. She's very earnest, which I especially love!!! My personal favorites are the infamous (4hr long) Star Wars Hotel video, the Easter Musicals video, and the Dear Evan Hansen Movie video. Defunctland's hunt for the composer of Disney Channel theme song also slaps!
Jenny Nicholson is the god of youtube essays so you probably already know her Also Defunctland does a lot about adandoned theme parks/the muppets and jim henson projects and disney (not a fan a disney but even his videos in disney are great) strange æons has done some great videos on onision that were good and i used to watch them a lot but can’t remember anything other than the onision book review videos so that’s all i can recommend from them but Jenny Nicholson is the greatest - I’m not even interested in most of the topics she covers but she’s so interesting? entertaining and compelling Also Jenny Nicholson always commits to the video by completely involving herself in the topic not just for the video but in her real life and learning like every bit of lore for what she’s covering
I love Jenny Nicholson she is v sweet and funny and enthusiastically makes videos abt niche theme parks or media Drew goodens old stuff slushy noobs Sinjin drownings
The occupation persists, the oppression persists, the torture persists. The occupiers are psychotic and their work is never finished.
People who’ve paid attention won’t be surprised by this photo from Gaza.
I’m 50, I say because that makes me unusual in this context. I paid [redacted] for a ticket to the Eras Tour after listening to tswift for 3 weeks, and it was worth it. In second grade my teacher gave kids birthday spankings over her knee, and in sixth grade my teacher told my mom I hadn’t blossomed yet. I’m a good friend, mostly to people on the internet. I’m good at conversing with strangers. I’m usually the oldest person at the show but don’t feel like it. I’m good at being helpful. I’m sarcastic and funny and make myself laugh. I’m a good graphic designer and a conscientious driver. I’m a good photographer and I can successfully follow recipes. I don’t use my Peloton enough. I did a lot of caregiving for my mom for several years, and we enjoyed spending time together even if it was mostly in waiting rooms and my car. The fastest I ever ran a mile was eight minutes and six seconds. I drove the same car for 20 years and then replaced it with another one. I enjoy tipping, giving money to people on the street and Disneyland. I am a fan of baseball, Formula 1 racing and the Criterion Channel. I solve about 80% of New York Times crosswords. I take Prozac and Wellbutrin, and take Trazodone to sleep through the night. I wish I had a glassed in solarium so I could sleep in it on rainy nights. I would like to have a pet cat and a garage. I could happily live eating only cereal and fruit. I overshare on the internet and undershare elsewhere. ✌️💛
