    Hey Hank! I think the specific epitoke-producing polychaete that you’re thinking about might be the Samoan palolo worm (Palola viridis). Their epitokes rise up from the seabed in October around the Pacific islands (Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, Vanuatu) and are collected and eaten as a delicacy. I remember reading about these in a marine biology book when I was younger and hearing about them in this video got me super excited!

    11:00 "we're not a tremendously evolutionarily based species anymore". This kind of thing is something interesting I always like to point out when people talk about these kinds of things. A lot of times (I'm not saying this about you hank, I'm sure you don't) people forget that we are still a species on this planet. And I honestly feel the argument of humans creating this infrastructure and everything being "unnatural" is odd, because while it's weird we created infrastructure and all that stuff, if it's "unnatural" or "against evolution", how and why did we do it? Many would argue that the reason it's unnatural is because it's harming the environment. But when you really think about it, every species is a parasite to the planet they live on, they take more than they give back. And in that way, I'd say infrastructure, society, and everything along that line is natural.

    • @Beokabatuka
      @Beokabatuka 4 місяці тому +7

      Idk if I'd go as far as to say that all species are parasites of the planet (I suppose it's true in an entropic sense), but I agree about the meaninglessness of the natural/unnatural distinction. We affect the planet significantly more in degree than others, but I don't think there's necessarily a clean distinction between us and, say, beavers or termites in the "naturalness" of our impact. We are each compelled to do what we do, and building a house seems hardly different than building a beaver dam in some sense.

    What is this energy? I love it! Hank's enthusiasm for "work compilation" is infectious (we all knew he was a workaholic). Also I really feel like we get a glimpse of how your mind works when you take us alnog through the journey of research, and we get to see as you find stuff out (that desintegration was craaaazy). Truly inspiring, thanks hanks.

    One time I was out in my granny's garden & I looked down and saw a worm, I thought "that's a weird looking worm" but as I look closer I realised that it was two worms having sex. So when you said it looks more like sex than you thought, I can attest to that, it does look alot like sex

      @@HarshitWise I’m autistic so I’ll take this as a very literal question and answer thus:
      It’s a sex joke. You usually purge your erotic search history so others do not see and judge you, especially if you’re a teen and using a family computer (or have nosy parents on your private computer).
      Also possible but less likely answer is that this person doesn’t want us to see Hank’s search history in general for his general privacy. He’s also searching a lot of different things and your history can make your data slower maybe?

    Hi Hank, I clicked on this video because one night I had a dream where I was a worm -
    I was in the soil, it was dark, but I could feel my whole worm nervous system. I was a worm. Then somewhere from out of the cold darkness, another worm appeared, I touched the other worm, and my entire worm nervous system lit up in pure ecstatic energy. So I have experienced first hand in this lifetime what it was like to be a worm mating with another worm. I’m not sure if it was a past life or what. It was insane
