Instrumental is probably the wrong word, but ambient, noise, classical, electronic music, etc. music without words. I love lyrics and poetry, and listen to music with words a lot, but many times, especially in headphones, when I listen to music I can hear my own thoughts better, and hearing someone else’s in there is too distracting.

I love working with music playing in the back but lyrics can be so distracting; I’ve been getting really into instrumental music and discovering the huge variety of songs outside of just classical music!
I linked one of my instrumental playlists :)

these artists are always my most listened. perfect background noise but some of these songs are so good that they're distracting tbh

I don't listen to music while I read, but maybe finding instrumental music that's similar to the mood of the book could help? Ex. Listening to dark/haunting instrumental while reading a gothic or horror book

Rice is the best food. Perfect texture. I love any rice based dish. Sushi is probably humanity’s greatest culinary achievement.

Full of information, archives within archives. A lot of cool old government film clips and PSAs and science and educational films. Tons of books and audiobooks and really obscure/fringe writing from the whole spectrum of political thought as well as classics. Also going on the website wayback machine and looking for websites I made on Geocities when I was 12 is fun. Makes you feel like an archaeologist.

It’s like a film class that you make your own curriculum for. I honestly never really liked movies that much until I got a subscription. It seemed like too much work to try and understand the whole history of cinema. Now I realize that film making is an art form that’s made of all the other art forms. Music and sound, photography, painting, sculpture, writing, story telling. My life is changed.
