Gonna try out some of those yt videos, podcasts and songs.
And honestly, maybe if you get the time, you should get into playing short games if possible! Even though on the surface they may sound like " video games " but some of them have great storylines, and might give you a new perspective as well!
Thank you so much! I am very resistant to games - not denying that they have great storylines, I respect them as pieces of media / art... But I am scared of getting "enthused" by yet another thing. I once got sucked into NFS badly (maybe not the best example, but still) - there's enough writing / music / etc to keep me occupied for now, so gaming is a well left :)
Thank you! I just checked though, and they seem to be working for me - checked on both desktop and mobile. A bunch of folks joined both groups, too, from this post. Do check again and ping back if you're facing issues.
Probably a browser / incompatibility issue. Happens sometimes with WhatsApp group links. Try pasting these two URLs into a WhatsApp chat and clicking from there? That might help.
What an amazing list !
PG Wodehouse and H2G2 ❤️
Happy 42 Chuck!

Thanks for the reco though!
Happy 42. What a lovely list, will try and pick most of these. And the links to the WhatsApp groups at the last are not working.

I am sorry but I am still not able to get through the link. I am getting "Webpage Not Available" screen with "net::ERR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCEHEME"
