Nothing.
I can only focus on 1 thing at a time and there's already 20 of them at once at any time in my head.
But I can listen to music. Although it depends on what it is. But not to worry, I can just listen to a single song on loop for hours non-stop.
Might not be up your alley, but there's a dude called "Just Background Noise" who does various Morrowind challenge runs. It's neat stuff, but his name is quite accurate. Makes for some great background listening.
right up my alley, thank you!
That would be my jam. Cheers
Im sold. Added - thanks.
I like watching magicians do magic tricks while I drive, and trying to spot the technique.
Iβm just kidding donβt do that
Do you like silly stuff? I usually put on the YouTube channel Drawfee. A group of artists take ridiculous prompts and draw them on the fly, and the idea usually mutates mid-drawing based on their conversations.
Might not be great as you have to be able to look up from what you're doing to see the drawings. I'm more of a multitasker so it works for me.
drawfee mentioned! I also watch Secret Sleepover Society, their game stream
Trackmania gameplay. It's an arcade racing game, purely skill based, no story to follow. Players will play the same track multiple times until they get a good time, that way you don't miss anything important if you look away for a while. Probably not gonna work for you if you're not into the game though.
Yes! TrackMania footage is so satisfying. Wirtual's documentaries on the game are also great
trackmania has that in common with basically all speedrunning streams/content. super nice to have in the background since it can be repetitive and you can pay attention if they get a good run going :)
and there are people who speedrun probably every game you've ever enjoyed, so there is plenty of options!
I like listening to a number of things, but watching things just slows me down.
Star Trek. All of it.
Podcasts, currently listening to lets go to court.
I currently have a Baldur's Gate 3 stream running in the background and she's just doing inventory management. My brain can't handle anything more complicated.
King of the Hill, Top Gear UK, Travel Man with Richard Ayoade
I often have ASMR videos playing in the background while I play chill games or at work. It relaxes my mind and helps me focus
Time Team on YouTube, but itβs an archeology show so you really have to like that topic.
Was about to say the same thing - just annoying it's not all available online in the UK
There are a lot of episodes on YouTube, on there official channel and on other channels. Plenty to keep me occupied for a while.
Yes! The Deep Web Browsing Playlist is some good background stuff but definitely has moments to check out directly.
i like listening to Lily Simpson videos when i'm doing chores and such. Her videos are often fairly long (meaning i don't need to stop what i am doing to pick another video), easy to take in without having to actually watch with my eyeballs the whole time, and of consistently high quality.
Therapy Gecko, Bad Friends, Podcast But Outside
My Relias training...
Anything from the Simon Whistlerverse, today I found out, brain blaze, casual criminalist, they're all good to have playing in the background, especially when Simon starts ranting.
Japanese City Pop.
