and I have to plead ignorance about the "asmr."
though borrowing from the Japanese idiom, you could say "un-pixeling."
haha yeah
asmr is a type of video that has exploded on youtube in the last few years. hundreds of youtubers making them, thousands of videos out there. it's based on sounds and movements and simulated situations that help you relax. which often involve an attractive youtuber roleplaying as a close friend whispering in your ears and things like that. there's a fierce debate in "the asmr community" on whether it has any relation to sexual stimulation and whether it's okay or not to explicitly associate it with sexual themes (there are a few youtubers who do)
so, in short. it's something to please your senses and help you relax. there's a debate on whether it's supposed to be strictly "innocent" or not. so... if you add the word "japanese", you
know what the result is going to be...
