Go watch DragonBall Z Abridged. It’s great fun and you’ll understand everything.

I’m not American (and I assume you are), so I’m afraid I can’t help with that 😅

Educational books at or slightly above her reading level? My kid is crazy about dinosaurs, so he’ll read and re-read books about them even though he doesn’t understand all the words yet.

I use some videos from this channel. Usually 30 minutes, three times per week, alternating with soccer/calisthenics days. Works perfectly for me.

(Specifically # 4, 5 and 26 from this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLBfRLLhSBb-Ce7jXhButzHMHoQcAf_dgE

But they a lot of other good videos as well, so be sure to look around.)

I have some guys in my team who are over fifty and still play every week, so it certainly is possible. One is the goalie :P The other does a lot of jogging which helps him stay fit. Stuff like yoga and calisthenics also help prevent injuries. So you might try looking into that and see if it helps you stay in the game.

VLDL make rally funny parodies of various games. They have some long running series with recurring characters.

You should watch all three, it’s one cohesive story :) (But you’ll probably want to do so anyway)

There are way to few people recommending The Lord of the Rings Extended Editions. I recently rewatched them after not seeing them for a decade and I was surprised by how much growing older allowed me to better recognize the themes in the story. My wife watched them for the first time with me and she said they’re the best movies she’s ever seen.

Allegaeon - Proponent For Sentience III - The Extermination

Blind Guardian - Valhalla is also really good.

Check out Takeo Ischi, the Japanese yodeler

If it’s just a few nights, I wouldn’t worry about it.

Quake 3 Arena is quick fun and is available for free: https://archive.org/details/quake-3-arena

Yeah, even in the Randstad, for distances up to like 15 km it’s often faster to cycle somewhere than take public transport.

Not a game, but I think it fits the general theme: DragonBall Z Abridged. +/- 10 minute shorts abridgeing (and parodying) DragonBall Z. I never watched the real show, but I think they’re hilarious.

I’m working on losing a few kgs for playing sports, so I’m trying to make changes that are sustainable for the rest of my life. E.g. quark and granola instead of bread for breakfast, and no more snacks in between meals (RIP stroopwafels).

That way I only need to change habits once instead of multiple times like when you’re dieting, and the effect is slow but noticeable.

I just switched from Sync to Boost because of the lack if updates. The interface is slightly different, but you get used to that after a day. The only thing I really miss is opening image previews by long-pressing.

I’ve trained calisthenics, plyometrics and power yoga at home for years and I’m very happy with the results. Just search on Youtube for advice and workouts you like. Use your common sense: look for people focusing on tried-and-true ideas and don’t use performance enhancing drugs.

My favorite channels are Athlean-X, Calisthenicmovement, The Stone Circle and Breathe and Flow.

Also, get a mirror or film yourself to check your form, or have someone watch you. After a while, you’ll start feeling whether something is right or wrong, but at the start it’s useful to have a visual check.
