Youtube Reccomendations

    I don't love youtube as a platform. I think that it has a curropt and broken algorithm, and I do not trust it's monopolistic state. It definetly feels much more hostile then what it was when it was smaller, but that part is not really it's fault, it's mainly because of the shifting landscape of the internet and it's rapidly growing population needing to be housed in a convient platform. Social media has developed to be all about convience which sucks in some senses, we have to sacrafice personalization and craetive freedom for the convient machine.

    This, however, does not dictate that the internet is all doom and gloom, there are still creative people, especially on Youtube. With the rise of access to video making materials, so many new creative people get to be exist with a platform, which is good. I want to shine a spotlight on a few people that are great creatives and should be appreciated.

  • The Manga Log- "A video essay channel about superheroes, comics, manga, and whatever I find interesting. "
  • The Moth- "The Moth is a nonprofit dedicated to the art and craft of storytelling..."
  • Characters Welcome- "Characters Welcome is a NYC based hub for the best and brightest comedy actors to perform their favorite original characters and impressions"
  • Shoot from the hip- "Improv Rockstars."(improv shows)
  • Tom Nicholas- "I make videos about politics, history and culture. My goal is to provide context and clarity to trending topics. I like to take a critical look at current affairs and track down the origins of the ideas which shape the way we see the world."
