What's Up with Cleaning Videos?

-
    Okay, I need to make this short or else I'm going to ramble on about it. 

    What is up with cleaning videos online?

    For context, I've been watching these videos on this playlist  for a few days now. I mainly keep them on as productive background noise. Apparently, I feel the urge to be productive when I hear other people being productive. No idea why yet, but I'm sure I'll figure that out at some point in my life. 

    Now that I've watched some of these videos multiple times now, a few things have stuck out to me that I need to get into writing. 

  • Why are the majority of them females? Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that it is something a bit more family-friendly compared to a bit of the more popular dance or acting videos I've seen around social media. But I just don't understand why the guys haven't cashed in on this market. Not only is it a perfect market to show that men know how to clean, but it's also a great way to find out which kind of women would be interested in you since you actually know how to clean. 
  • Why does the person cleaning use so much product? I know that it looks cool to use so much foam, powder, and gel products on things, but -in all actuality- you don't need that much. It's a bit much to use all of that when it doesn't make the cleaning go better or faster. That, and you end up having to buy more products, which drains your money in the long run. 
  • What is the point of buying all of these products when one product will do the trick? On top of already using too much product, there are also multiple products in the videos that are meant to be all-purpose. Meaning you can use them all over the place and not buy three products that basically do the same thing.
    There are many more things I could go into, but those are the first and most asked three questions that I have when I watch these videos. 

    Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to go watch that playlist again while I get some more work done.

Book Review Dreyer's English: An Utterly Correct Guide to Clarity and Style Written by Benjamin Dreyer   If you are looking for a newer, fresher guide to the English language, this might be something to read. Dreyer is the Copy Chief of Random House, which gives him ample credibility to the wisdom and advice he offers. This book becomes a first step into the mind of a copy editor for multiple forms of writing. A lot of the information in this book serves as great advice and a springboard into other resources that Dreyer heartily recommends.   There is a lot of information to take in with this book. Its two sections (and thirteen chapters) cover a lot of material. The first section, "The Stuff in the Front," goes into detail about various style suggestions that you may want to consider on a basic level. Things such as punctuation; the rules and nonrules; and how to write foreign words in your work are critical for everything from flash fiction to novellas, from biographies...

Extra Note

-
 This goes to every American who either voted or did not vote recently. If you did not get what you wanted/needed, celebrate with those who did. For the first time in four years, those people may feel seen and valued.  If you did get what you wanted/needed, comfort and/or pray for those who did not. For the first time in four years, those people may feel uncertain and scared of their future.  No matter who you are as an American, please prepare to make the next four years the best they can be for yourself and others. Not just the ones you agree with, but everyone.  If your first reaction to my request was to become angry, then please take a moment to ask yourself why you got angry. The fact that you may not be able to set aside your feelings/convictions to understand how others feel is not what we as a full country need right now. For those of you who aren't American but still have elections in your country, I would kindly ask that you adapt this practice for when yo...

Canlanma Street Level, Story 1

Story 1    The holy incense follows the disciples out of the gilded temple hall. The Shepherd continues to swing the burner as he repeats the old mantras of the faith. The last disciple leaves and the burner settles as the Shepherd contemplates the list of rituals he must perform before the sun sets. The ritual implements have to be cleaned, the sacrifices burned, the acolytes of the temple purified, the-   "Shepherd Thanatos, we have a situation that requires your attention." An acolyte of the temple calls from below the altar. The Shepherd sighs and recites his calming mantra: "What I am about to do has not been approved." The Shepherd walks slowly behind the altar and finds the symbol on the side as he recites "chao regnat" under his breath. The symbol glows and opens a trap door under the altar. Shepherd Thanatos checks for other unwelcomed entities then slips under the altar and down the exposed staircase.   The acolytes in the room part as Shephe...
