I did retirement home training and used to think it was a sweet job. Then I got in the business and underestimated how demoralizing it was as they give you the easy elders in training while the others make you, or at least me, really think of the fact the job just amounts to an unkarmic freebie.

Some livestreamers (even big ones) are legitimately fun to watch, but I agree that there are a lot of livestreamers that just do "reaction content" which, while it can be fun (in the same way as Rifftrax/MST3K), isn't something most streamers put enough effort into to be considered good. Instead it ends up being a low-effort way of generating views.

If you want some good streamers, some of the big streamers I like are people like,

Vinesauce Vinny: Unhinged but chill New York Italian streamer who likes corrupting games (fucking with the ROM/RAM while the game is running) and laughing at unhinged 80's and 90's video game commercials; in a band with Jabroni Mike and he's also known as "binyot".
Jabroni Mike: Unhinged and not chill New York Italian streamer who loves dredging up YouTube content slop to laugh at; in a band with Vinny and he's also known as "Cumchugger".
Vargskelethor: Absolutely unhinged swedish metalhead who lives in a public toilet where he points and laughs at people while they take a shit (very childish sense of humor, but a lot of fun to watch because you never know what to expect); in a metal band called Scythelord along with a self-titled solo project. Also known as Joel, Yo-ell, Jobel, fecalfunny.com, etc.
Jerma985: a fucking psycho in semi-retirement; best known for his irl streams like the Dollhouse (IRL Sims with chat controlling Jerma), baseball stream (~~shoved an entire baseball up his ass, live on twitch~~ put together two fictional baseball teams for a livestreamed baseball game), carnival stream (he had chat-controlled robots to let chat play the games), ~~archeology~~ geology stream, Who Will Replace Me?, and so on.
Laimu/Limealicious: vtuber affiliated with Vinesauce, """wholesome""" streamer.
Fredrik Knudsen: Yes, the "Down the Rabbit Hole guy" also has a twitch channel.
WhiskeyDing0: another vtuber, this time furry as fuck, but he plays a lot of indie horror games and sometimes organizes VRChat game shows with other furry streamers; also probably the biggest furry streamer right now. Great way to find new indie horror games.
Jall: furry "fleshtuber" with an absolutely insane setup designed to try and recreate the feeling of watching a YouTube poop, except it's live. Warning: consume in small doses; his streams are a sensory overload like nothing else.

Even if it's not your thing, I'd highly recommend looking up the stream vods for Jerma's IRL stuff, it's brilliant and extremely high-effort.

Edit: I was just trying to make some suggestions, jeez.

I don't like to kink-shame but those all sound like horrible people.
