Having just finished up 6 episodes on G. Gordon Liddy, knowing nothing about him beforehand, I second the recommendation of Behind the Bastards.

That monologue (from one of the unambiguously "good" characters) about how it would be cruel to set the elves free, because of the joy they get from servitude? Even as a teenager, I recognised that as a messed-up sentiment, but my peers just said I was being too sensitive. Glad that you couldn't let something like that slide nowadays.
A Strobe Tuner is fantastic if you play music. I've been using the open source one by Adam Foster for years, but heard the A4Labs version is good too.
My 25 minute commute by car would be 3 hours on public transport, across 4 buses. American cities were expressly designed around the automobile, and are nearly impossible to navigate otherwise.
Something that took me a while to realise is that you don't necessarily need to be eating rubbish food to gain weight, just too much. I think there's this stereotype of the guy chugging down sugary drinks all day with his greasy burgers in between handfuls of sweets, but that's not the case for most people.
What was a big help for me was getting a food scale, and working out what size portions I should be eating - particularly for carby things like rice and pasta I found I was way off on my estimates of what a decent serving should be.
If they hadn't tried to claim the history as their own I don't think it would have been nearly as controversial. Calling themselves "The Dons" and referencing 1889 as the founding date was just insulting.
There's plenty of it in the UK too.
I lost interest in ford when they killed the Fiesta/Focus.
The perspective of the left woman's feet is confusing to me - but the colouring and shading is great, really gives you a sense of them.
Iirc, the rough delineation is if you remember the challenger disaster = gen x, 9/11 = millennial, covid = gen z, after that = gen alpha.
Ilya Naishuller has some fun stuff - check out his video for Leningrad - Kolshik if you haven't already.
They moved Ctrl-Alt-Backspace behind a config iirc - too easy to hit by accident.
