I make a new youtube account every 3 months to take advantage of the premium trail because I refuse to pay google money after Google Reader and Google Music.

Here is how I train my youtube feed, I have about 100 channels I subscribe to and "import" into new account every time. They are the "approved" channels I like and they will take up about 80% of my recommendation feed. The rest of the "new" video I actively use "don't recommend this channel" "don't recommand this video" feature to train youtube. Usually it will take 3-4 days to turn a new user account into a good youtube feed. For the old videos that you have watched already, use "I have watched this video" option. I never get any Fulun Dafa or MAGA bullshit.

I have a separated user account to follow all the Thinktank channel videos feed, I manage it on this user account but watch the video on my main ad-free account. It's very complicated but it works for me.

idk how much youtube is too much youtube but this definitely qualifies

Actually In the US we get salmonella all the time from unwashed lettuce iirc.

But it's not just for safety it makes your rice literally better.

we only hear about the salmonella because the expectation is the lettuce doesn’t need to be thoroughly washed. in some parts of the world the response to “this unwashed lettuce gave me salmonella!” is “no poo poo; what did you expect”

like washing fruit and veggies you’ll probably be ok if you’re in a western country to not wash and inspect your rice

I watched it a long time ago but I believe the crux of his argument was that rice especially in the US is fortified so washing it removes all the fortification. Rice in the US is processed pretty well, so the need to wash it to remove all the dirt is unneeded.

I like washing rice because it removes a lot of the starch that makes rice feel heavy.

boil in a bag rice is pretty bad, i don't think washing rice makes a huge difference when you use a rice cooker but it's not that hard to run the rice in a sieve under a tap to wash it a bit either sooo

See that one "russia is poo poo and they like eating dookie and drinking peepee" video on the top right? I'm getting it too, despite the odds of us having similar taste in videos being very very low (unless your interests are guns, resident evil and excessively long "video essays" about pop culture*). This poo poo is like ads but instead of selling you a product it's an opinion. Yes I know I sound like a 14 year old kid who just watched Fight Club, let me be.






*yes I know my life is a loving joke

The only difference between 14 year old me after watching fight club and 34 year old me is I just crack a beer and lmao now instead of getting mad.

I think a lot of Americans grow up eating stuff like rice, tofu, and veggies without any seasoning and think it's really bad.

Britain did, which is why their national dish is an Indian curry. Which if you’ve experienced “indigenous” British food you’ll certainly understand why.

The American empire, on the other hand, prefers to export McDonald’s to the periphery rather than take anything home with them.
