Lorne Armstrong. I'm fascinated by the subsequent years long catfishing saga after his release from prison following the To Catch A Predator sting. I was about to mention this! Its great to find a fellow Lornagrapher I haven't gotten a kiss yet!

I got super into Resident Evil lately and then one of my favourite YouTubers, Sophie From Mars, did a three part, multi hour analysis of the series. In it she cited Noah Caldwell Gervais, who once did an eight hour video on the series. I have now watched all of both twice, and played RE4 in full again in between

Don't have a biggest, but usually when I go on a kick for something I'll find a wiki specifically for it and just start sopping up information like a sponge.

Curiosity about Star Trek's history after TOS but before the movies got me looking at much of the fan culture of the show in the 70s which is a remarkably deep dive. Early conventions, fanzines, emergence of fanfiction (including essentially the birth of Slash Fic as we know it), nascent attempts at cosplay, it goes on and on. It's probably one of the most fascinating unsung cultural stories out there, especially in how much of the traditional narrative about Trek having a largely male fanbase is really challenged by the fact that it was largely women running the cons, fanzines, and so forth.
I'm always fascinated by media in its wilderness years (see Star Wars prior to 91 and Doctor Who between 89 and 2005) but its hard to think of a show so thoroughly belonging to a fanbase like Star Trek was in those days.

I am known as a rabbit chaser at work because of how far I will track problems. Case in point: Distribution could not put away an item because… Production had not picked the parts because… They didn’t show an ECA (empty column assembly) in stock because… Product assembly did not post their work order because… They did not show an end fitting in stock because… They never got transferred from Receiving because… The receipt for them never got posted because… The vendor did not show enough parts in stock because… The parts that we shipped them did not get received in the computer because… We never told the computer we shipped them because… Quality never approved the transfer because… Purchasing never hit the “submit” button on their transfer request.
It took three full days to track the problem that far. It took another four hours to go back to each person one at a time and get them to post their step so we could put the product into stock.

I play and follow Street Fighter stuff, so unfortunately it’s hard to get away from LowTierGod popping up on my feed. I don’t know if it’s a gimmick or not, but that dude needs help. And not just with his gameplay.
On the lighter side, I love graphic design and I find myself deep diving into different design studios from the early 80s. Also various character pages on TV Tropes.

I once spent time looking up what Undertale was all about on the Undertale wiki and before I knew it, a few hours later, I was browsing fanart of the Underswap AU on Tumblr.

I'm ashamed to admit it but the... incident last year caused me to go down the Chris Chan rabbit hole and see how much more messed up things have gotten since the Frederik Knudsen video. That damn Geno Samuel documentary series! I'm using it as background noise while doing something creative, but I'm almost through the first 60 videos. "What is the fascination?" I have no idea.

Back in the late 90s I spent hours at work looking up info on the two main street gangs I had heard of. Which lead to me reading up on all the various gangs in the US.
For almost the next ten years if I wasnt busy at work and in my office I was researching all kinds of stuff about the Bloods,Crips and other gangs.Learned that some friends' dads were member of the Dixie Mafia. And learned why everybody was super nice to Old Man Stokes that lived out near me.

I went to Wikipedia to look up information on a video game and somehow ended up reading about ancient nation-states of Central Asia. I once went on to read something about La Liga, and at 1 am, I'm reading about Jewish vs. Christian concepts of heaven and hell.

I guess it makes me sound like a lunatic, but I really got into looking up everything I could find out about Columbine after I read Dave Cullen's book. I was around 12 years old when that happened, so it's definitely one of those awful events that burned into my head.

Skirting the politics rule a bit here, but I'm hoping it'll be fine since I'm not mentioning specific people, issues or parties.
I am obsessed with watching youtube videos of local city council drama. Oh my god, I have never seen so much little power go to peoples head so hard.
