    Seems like the content industry in general is evolving towards cashing in on thirst, even if it’s not ASMR. The most banal tutorial about any craft or activity suddenly has some not-so-accidental innuendo, or the creator chooses the most not-so-innocently-revealing attire, or acts weird-but-it’s-all-in-your-mind towards the tools or materials…

    Nothing against whatever someone wants to put out there, but if you are after the tutorial and the algorithm feeds you the plausibly deniable softcore it’s a bit exhausting.
