It's so good. Like, there's the obvious first layer of comedy, right? Where he spends 30 minutes making cup noodles and pours hot water all over his kitchen counter doing it, and makes comments like 'this is great because it's a very cheap food source for students' before turning to his obscenely expensive keurig coffee machine to get hot water from it to make them with, and laments the lack of actual shrimps in his fifty cent shrimp flavoured noodle, as if he got ripped off.

But then, in the background, you get some of the most beautiful and baffling moment in human history.



Phil keeps, seemingly at all times, a cutting board with a ceramic knife and an array of spoons on it on his kitchen counter, just there, in case he needs them. Whenever he wants to cut any meat he has to move all the spoons and poo poo off, cut the stuff, wash the cutting board, and then presumably dry it and put the spoons back on.

Next to it is an inordinate amount of pyrex measuring jugs. He has like five pyrex measuring jugs, piled up there on his counter, in case he needs five pyrex measuring jugs. I can honestly say that this frame of video footage is going to be a point of obsession for the rest of my life.

That thing reminds me of these two vids TieTuesday and Madithen made together riffing on a Finnish HomeCooking channel.

Jeremy Parish has been a game reviewer/knowy figure for around 20 years, popping around the time Seanbaby was a thing. Among other things including a podcast that has SA Allumini BobServo, several books that were what Brick by Brick wanted to be and probably the most touching article about wearing a fedora.

Link goes to his youtube channel, which atm is hosting his projects GameBoy World and GoodNintentions , kind of sister projects to a major one hosted by...

Doctor Sparkle 's Chrotendo, a rather ambitious project to review every Nes and Family Computer game around. The Lo-Fi aesthetic and the incredibly chill presentation has been growing in popularity for several years. Atm his youtube is a bit disorganized, so a link to his rehosted videos on the Internet Archive is advisable

Retro Pals is kind of a grabbag in terms of RetroGame Systems, mainly based on streams. There's an overview of early PSX games being slowly done, and there has been crosslinks between them and Lazy Game Reviews among others.

Stop Skeletons from Fighting is centered on both the often maligned and the incredibly obscure figures on videogames.

One of the most delightfully subtle things about the fascist society of Starship Troopers is that everyone in Buenos Aires is a white American. Their entire world is a post-genocide ethnostate.

Verhooven filmed it much like what that kind of society would film a story like that.
