Nothing, which is truly different behavior for me. My son and his GF finally moved out so I don't have to keep music playing continually to hide their noises and conversations from reaching my sanctuary (my bedroom/office). Now that they're gone, I can just do what I want in total silence (aside from the sounds of kids playing outside or the occasional traffic noise on the street). It's blissful.

Dad Feels - Everything is Fine (Album: More Music)
Okay soo... this isn't exactly a normal recommendation but here goes. This guy is a content machine and his music actually bops pretty hard but I wanted to give something of a warning given how um... bizarre nearly all of it is so consider yourself warned lest you happen to be the kind to also fall down the rabbit hole because this is a pretty deep one. Oh, potential seizure warning for some of his videos too.
A buddy turned me onto this guy, Nathan Barnatt, he runs ... many YouTube channels (from what I can tell several of them, many of which aren't linked or referenced except through some ARG stuff he puts in most videos) doing all sorts of stuff from music and dancing, DJ sets, character roleplay video game streams, to satire conspiracy surrealist films, other things that define description and all of it seems to be interlaced with layer upon layer of ARGs to the point where he's gotten enough sort of low key acclaim in the music and YouTube scene where even MatPat ended up making multiple Film Theorist segments on him. He even crashed America's Got Talent while playing one of his characters, be it staged or not.

I am an unabashed old school headbanger (I will NOT refer to myself as a "metal head", however). One of my favorite bands going all the way back to my feral youth is Manowar. I found this video not long ago and the feels it brought back just stunned me. And getting to see every member of Manowar, past and present (up to 2005, when this was filmed) set aside the rancor and their differences and get back together for the fans themselves just punched me right in the heart. I'm not ashamed to say I might have teared up some when I first saw this. For me, this may be the greatest single moment in the history of heavy metal and how a cosmic singularity wasn't created at this time is astonishing...lol.

Just moved halfway across the United States after struggling to find work for the past couple years, so this one's hitting pretty hard right now:
Speaking of Stan Rogers... this tune is a helpful one, at times.
Well, the owners wrote her off; not a nickel would they spend
She gave twenty years of service, boys, then met her sorry end
But insurance paid the loss to us, so let her rest below
Then they laughed at us and said we had to go
But we talked of her all winter, some days around the clock
For she's worth a quarter million, afloat and at the dock
And with every jar that hit the bar, we swore we would remain
And make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again
Rise again, rise again!
Let her name not be lost to the knowledge of men
Those who loved her best and were with her 'til the end
Will make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again!
All spring, now, we've been with her on a barge lent by a friend
Three dives a day in hard hat suit and twice I've had the bends
Thank God it's only sixty feet and the currents here are slow
Or I'd never have the strength to go below
But we've patched her rents, stopped her vents, dogged hatch and porthole down
Put cables to her, 'fore and aft and girded her around
Tomorrow, noon, we hit the air and then take up the strain
And make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again
Rise again, rise again!
Let her name not be lost to the knowledge of men
Those who loved her best and were with her 'til the end
Will make the Mary Ellen Carter rise again!
For we couldn't leave her there, you see, to crumble into scale
She'd saved our lives so many times, living through the gale
And the laughing, drunken rats who left her to a sorry grave
They won't be laughing in another day
And you, to whom adversity has dealt the final blow
With smiling bastards lying to you everywhere you go
Turn to, and put out all your strength of arm and heart and brain
And like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again
Rise again, rise again!
Though your heart, it be broken, or life about to end
No matter what you've lost, be it a home, a love, a friend
Then like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again!
Rise again, rise again!
Though your heart, it be broken, or life about to end
No matter what you've lost, be it a home, a love, a friend
Like the Mary Ellen Carter, rise again!

While it isn't exactly in the vein of the most common replies to this topic:
The first batch of the new AAA quality Discworld Audiobooks just dropped recently and I've been making my way through the first of them, Equal Rites and it's very well done given the absolute reverence his works hold.
