i loved these at school and now at my job when i have to dive into spreadsheets and research i like to have them playing, and if i’m at home i usually burn a complementary candle. also when i read fiction books i sometimes like to listen to one of these in the background with a vibe matching the book
i also like the ones that don’t have jazz and are just background sound without music. also there’s some channels that do book or movie themed ones like this one that has studio ghibli background ambience videos

When I'm working I like to have something playing in the background. Usually, that comes from youtube. As I've mentioned previously in recs - sometimes it's Kenji videos, but often it’s random ambient youtube playlists. Whether it's ambient forest sounds, libraries, or whatever your favorite fictional world is (yes I play ambient harry potter music), there are endless several-hour-long videos on youtube for you. This is ASMR at its finest.

During the pandemic home times I got really into putting an ambient room on in the background while I was reading. I love a library room with sounds of dust crackles and book pages turning. This creator Miracle Forest makes a lot of great ones with their own little story like “Hiding in the bathroom at a weird gathering,” or “Abandoned gas station at the end of the world.”

I've had many cases where my youtube or spotify profiles pull up around my friends and and family with titles like "sleepover with robin buckley", "studying with rory and paris" or "coming back to bucky barnes apartment", but i stopped caring because they help me lock in for finals, help me fall asleep and overall put my mind at ease with my hyper fixations honestly wanna start making some of my own. 10 hour "hot tub" and "rain" is also pretty good too for sleepy time. (also if anyone makes fun of you for this i think that's pretty loser behavior)

being traditionally cool is really quite boring and iterative, and it’s actually very cool and sexy to geek out about something you like or share bits of knowledge on a topic you’re passionate about

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WORKER’S DAY!!!! i love having a union, i love being a union steward and getting to support my unit. when my union won its contract, i got a pay bump, better benefits, and increased protection as a worker. 🥳
unions help address racial and gender pay gaps, issues workplaces impose on families and those having kids, addressing unsafe conditions, plus things like better health insurance, wages and overtime, weingarten rights to representation, and more!!!
if you don’t have a union but are thinking about forming one, check out AFL-CIO’s page (linked) or Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee. there’s always more power in a union!! ✊🥖🌹
