I've been watching CNN, following the US election. This is not a politics post though. I discovered that, most of the times when there is an ad break in the TV programme - which, being the USA, is frequently - CNN shows a "30 seconds of calm" video. It's mostly nature - waves breaking on the shore, lambs frolicking, sunsets, etc. The music is not always calming - at least for me - but overall they are worth a look. If you value calm or need to be.
They call it a filler. Maybe that's a tv technical term, I don't know, but basically it's a non-advertisement, non-content slot which they have no need to do but it's cool. You can check them out on YouTube - for example, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zJsbZFKQAY&ab_channel=nch
BTW, CNN is not sponsoring this post! I wish.
Enjoy the calm!
UPDATE: I now find out that it's a sponsorship for a meditation app. Sorry to mislead y'all; I've been played for a sucker. Oh well, could have been worse, e.g. booze or fags.
