【Eroticizing Marx, Revolutionizing Freud: Marcuse's Psychoanalytic Turn】

Boring videos have Eroticizing Marx, Revolutionizing Freud: Marcuse's Psychoanalytic Turnnever been so good.

While on most days you probably wouldn't seek out the Internet's dullest videos, you might be able to put the clips to good use after all. If you need help falling asleep, that is.

That's the premise of Napflix, a website that curates a playlist of some of YouTube's most boring videos in order to help insomniacs slumber.

The simple website looks a bit like Netflix. And it helpfully uses a dark theme to avoid bright light while you're browsing the clips. On it, you can find delightfully snoozy videos like "Burning Fireplace," "Traditional Latin Mass," "Quantum Theory" and (my personal favorite) "Test Card."

Yes, "boring" is a subjective measure. But the site really does have something for everyone. Should you find "Einstein for the Masses" too stimulating you can always try "The Walking Chicken," or perhaps "Life of Panda" is more your speed.

Víctor De Tena, one of the creators of Napflix, says he was inspired after watching "a typical goalless football match."

"I started to think about all the things that I usually watch around my nap time that help me sleep," he wrote in an email to Mashable. "This generated an idea: Gather all that content with the idea to build a siesta digital platform that helps you nap."

Now, we should note that science says looking at screens before bed is actually a terrible way to fall asleep. But the reality is many people do rely on some kind of white noise or video for help. And insomnia is something millions of people struggle with. So, if watching a 43-minute long video of an apple farm can help, who are we to stand in your way?
