Japanese City Pop.

pelletbucket,

Futurama. there’s an entire subreddit for Futurama sleepers and I think it’s the largest of its category

MeetInPotatoes,

My Relias training…

FrozenHandle,

Trackmania gameplay. It’s an arcade racing game, purely skill based, no story to follow. Players will play the same track multiple times until they get a good time, that way you don’t miss anything important if you look away for a while. Probably not gonna work for you if you’re not into the game though.

Cwilliams,

Yes! TrackMania footage is so satisfying. Wirtual’s documentaries on the game are also great

trackmania has that in common with basically all speedrunning streams/content. super nice to have in the background since it can be repetitive and you can pay attention if they get a good run going :)

and there are people who speedrun probably every game you’ve ever enjoyed, so there is plenty of options!

Anything from the Simon Whistlerverse, today I found out, brain blaze, casual criminalist, they’re all good to have playing in the background, especially when Simon starts ranting.

I currently have a Baldur’s Gate 3 stream running in the background and she’s just doing inventory management. My brain can’t handle anything more complicated.

PiJiNWiNg,

I like the free Plex channels for Antiques Roadshow and BBC.

fjordbasa,

I believe that’s the same source as Pluto tv, if not, Pluto tv also has those channels

pelletbucket,

we really need to set up a Discord server where people can live chat all the Pluto TV channels

shinigamiookamiryuu,

I like listening to a number of things, but watching things just slows me down.

Num10ck,

STLN DRMS and Seven Beats Music on youtube. Or Soma FM’s groove salad stream.

friek,

LabPadre’s 24/7 stream of SpaceX in Boca Chica. Sometimes watching concrete dry or debris removal is just what I need to take a step back.

Audio books are nice. I like short story collections where each story is maybe 20 to 40 minutes long.

GlenRambo,

Any recomendations?

Grimy,

I’m currently going to through the BBC classics ultimate story collection. I also liked the BBC radio 4 rendition of Dorian grey. The radio ones tend to have multiple voices and some special effects. I also loved the blade trilogy by Joe Abercrombie.

If you like sci-fi, I can recommend the children of time and deepness in the sky. Vernor vinge also has a novella in audio format called fast times at Ridgemont high.

intensely_human,

I like watching magicians do magic tricks while I drive, and trying to spot the technique.

I’m just kidding don’t do that

residentmarchant,

Holy shit this would have been an amazing line for Micheal Scott to say

Alice,

Do you like silly stuff? I usually put on the YouTube channel Drawfee. A group of artists take ridiculous prompts and draw them on the fly, and the idea usually mutates mid-drawing based on their conversations.

Might not be great as you have to be able to look up from what you’re doing to see the drawings. I’m more of a multitasker so it works for me.

TheSignPainter,

drawfee mentioned! I also watch Secret Sleepover Society, their game stream

Lately I’ve been going through my favorite artists and listening to their music in chronological order.

I hate the “pick something to listen to” phase of music listening, full albums let’s me control what im listening to while not needing me to maintain it.
