I love that 17776 has such a big fandom on here but I'm sad (not entirely surprised) that so few of the fans have seen any of Jon Bois's other work. There's so much of the same essence of whimsy in the videos and his way of storytelling is so genuinely captivating that it doesn't even matter if you care about sports to enjoy them (and not all of his videos are about sports).

So I want to provide a choice selection of my favorites in the hope that some people get to experience them for the first time. If you decide to watch any of them, please tell me what you think because I like to live vicariously through showing people things.

All of these can be found in this playlist, or else will be linked directly.

IDK who needs to hear this but if there's something in your life that makes you feel better, but you never stick to it,

it's still actually perfectly fine to do it

and you shouldn't stop yourself from starting just because it won't be a permanent change.

Like if starting a new daily planner gives you an amazing afternoon of planning and four days where you feel in charge of your life,

why not do it?

It doesn't matter that it won't be a permanent change - 4 good days is still worth it.

If you ever catch yourself thinking, "I wish I could pray/stretch/prep/plan/do the thing, but I always get started on that and it never lasts more than a couple of days,"

what this really means is, "hey, I can feel better for a couple of days."

if this post is making you think of things in your own life that you wish you could stick to because of how good they make you feel,

just be aware:

you're not thinking of a list of ways you've failed to commit

you're thinking of a list of things that make you happy, and you should give yourself permission to start doing them as often as you want to
