Last time my girlfriend and I had the flu at the same time, we spent our days on the couch, snoozing in and out of consciousness, with Bob’s Burgers on the TV. We felt so shitty, but Bob’s Burgers made it all a little less shitty.

What ever interesting but too long video YouTube happens to be recommending at the time. Though if the title tells me to go to sleep watching it, I’ll pick another.

Futurama

I don’t often, but Drifting off with Joe Pera.

I have a few that I put in rotation. Unbreakable kimmy schmidt, superstore, my name is earl and raising hope. I just like the noise they make while I close my eyes then at some point i pass out.

Adventure Time

SpongeBob. Only the early seasons though, before it got “gross” when it changed production.

I know every episode off by heart. Stuff is always happening, but the humour is kind of low key, y’know? Like there’s a lot of talking and calm music. Even the yelling and creepy episodes are pretty tame, like a campfire story.

So there’s this Youtube channel called Astrum

Nothing. By separating sleep time and TV time, I’m less likely to fall asleep before I’m ready, and I fall asleep much faster when it’s bedtime.

Not a show but a movie, And I use it to take afternoon naps.

U571. I really like the movie.

There is a scene right in the beginning of the movie where Matthew McConaughey greets a family at a wedding/ball I generally fall asleep right there and wake up 45 minutes later with the first torpedo attack.

It’s wild. It’s almost like a Timer, I used to take a nap.

I do not watch TV to fall asleep, too stimulating. I read for a little bit, but mostly just try to close my eyes in silence.

“Hey I’m Grump, I’m not-so Grump, AND WE’RE THE GAME GRUMPS!”

I read to sleep.

It’s been a while, but How It’s Made. That guy could put anyone to sleep

Bad habit, your brain needs a lack of talking heads when you sleep.

If silence doesn’t work for you, try something with steady noise. Some use white noise generators, for me it’s the whir from an air purifier.
