@melissajcave @julianne_munich It's probably telling that one of my favorite sleep stories to listen to at bedtime is "Tales by the Tavern Fire" youtube.com/watch?v=OQDhSX… by @SleepSorcery because it's downtime in an inn. 😴🛏️

#WritingCommunity When you write characters post action and they're injured, hungry, thirsty, tired, do you make sure to write a scene showing them getting physical relief? Because I need to but I feel like it can be criticized for 'slowing the pace'. Characters are human too!

Billionaires have no imagination. If I had all that money I would build the Beauty & the Beast library. I would bribe Postal Service to make a new album. I would be hunting the Loch Ness Monster

@YouTubeLiaison This is devastating for sleep / meditation / ASMR channels who need the ability to control post-roll placements 💔

Announced today, rolling out in November — Simplified ad controls: 🎛️ Turn ads on or off (you get pre/post —skippable/non-skippable decided by the system) 🎞️ If ads are on, you can also turn midrolls on (no changes to midrolls, except...) 🤖 Midrolls can still be manual or automatic — or (NEW!) mix of both Live ads: 📺 Live midrolls where you set the interval ⏰ 60 second countdown for ad 👇 Skip and Delay 10 minutes buttons ☕️ Manual insert ad button 💬 15-second live display ads over chat (X-out any time) More info: support.google.com/s/community/fo…

@TeamYouTube please, please reconsider the forthcoming ad changes, which strip away creator agency. Sleep-inducing & ASMR channels need to be able to turn off post-roll ads. Please.

Wait so you’re saying… I now have no choice in whether or not my videos have post-roll ads? I- WTF is the point of me trying so hard to relax people and put them to sleep just to wake them up at the end??? Everytime I think @YouTube can’t get any worse they prove me wrong 🙂

So YouTube is changing its ad options and we will no longer be able to turn on monetization without also having pre-roll and post-roll ads. Luckily I can still have mid-roll ads off, but this is obviously very specifically a problem for ASMR channels. There are a few options-

This is pretty cool 🥹

Dear Suzy, Episode 213: Summer’s End is the conclusion of our series on Wes Anderson. @derekjones198 and I talk Moonrise Kingdom, mythology, and music. 🎧 spotify.link/k8YJlMeLFBb

Terry Pratchett once rang up a friend and said, “I’m exhausted! I need a break. I’m taking a six-month sabbatical.” Six months later his friend asked him, “Hey, how’d your sabbatical go?” Terry said, grumpily, “I wrote two books.”

My head’s been in the clouds lately… so I brewed up some dreamy, mythic sci-fi for the next sleep story. There’s a dash of Dune, a hint of Star Wars, and a hearty swig of Octavia Butler in this spice melange. Coming to Insight Timer, podcast players, and YouTube. 🌌
