Q: EY, WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN FOR TWO MONTHS NOW?
A: Please don’t shout. I’m trying to finish the new book and a video on relativity, but they’re proving tricky. It’s where the majority of my time is going. I hope you’ll accept this video as a little peace offering. New videos, t-shirts with pithy and subversive slogans, and a book (did I mention a book?) will be out when they’re ready, and I’m working my jolly damndest to make them ready.
Cheers for being patient and hope you’re doing excellently in any case.

This video isn't nihilism. Nihilism is the universe not having any meaning. This video is about the universe having meaning that we can't comprehend
87 Seconds - Short Videos on Fun Facts - 10k Subs so it’s basically absurdism
@@87channels So, Agnostic beliefs?
87 Seconds - Short Educational Videos could be both, I consider the meaninglessness of the world to be exactly what makes it so immensely valuable and beautiful
No, no, and no. Stop putting labels on something that you can't explain. That ruins the purpose of it.
I am one year away of officially becoming an English Teacher, and when I tell my students that what I expect from them is to develop a passion (or at least the understanding of this passion) for the pursuit of knowledge, I will print and read them this story right here. And when the year finishes and they're all nice and done with me, I'll read it to them again. If they won't find you and your goddamn precious work, I'll point them to it. I don't know about all of your viewers, but when I tell you that, in a time where an outgoing, attractive and trendy personality development becomes just as or more important than introspection, knowing oneself, caring for oneself, let me tell you that you remind me how important that is. Your work is as beautiful as you as a human being. Thanks for being a thing in the world.
Your students will be very, very lucky to have a teacher like you. Thank your being a thing in the world, and leading and guiding other things of he world.
I’m currently a sophomore in high school. Almost every English class I’ve encountered is a boring class and English has always been difficult for me. (I am more of a math guy) but I had one English teacher who was a great teacher with passion and she inspired students to learn. She did not have a seating chart and didn’t mind when students socialized. We would have a lot of class discussions not only about literature and stuff like that, but about topics that were real and familiar to students. She would join in conversation with students and felt closer than the rest of the teachers. She felt not like a distant tyrant who would punish those who did not fall into line, but like a responsible friend who held you accountable for your mistakes. She was the best teacher I’ve had. Just some advice from a student on how to be a great teacher.
(This was in 8th grade if you’re wondering)
There is 6 months left, this is your half time reminder to send this to your students
Hearing a story of a new teacher reminds me of my fourth grade teacher who passed away at the end of my fourth grade year. Thank you for filling an empty slot on earth

He said "thong"
"'What?' came a booming voice above."
"AAAAAH I DIDN'T EXPECT THAT TO WORK"
"What?" came the booming voice from above.
"Oh shi-" said the teenagers in the field, who thought they were just being clever.
@@supernovicrainnyth And the kids ran screaming, perhaps a little bit cleverer than before.
"What?" came a booming voice from above. It was then I realized I had become deaf; this relization came when, after what seemed like an eternity, it became apparent that I could not hear my own screaming.
I had the exact same thought
"What's this for?"
"Why, little ant, this is no other than 'shrek x spongebob fanfiction Chapter 5 printed edition 2019"
"You're right, I don't understand."

What does this refer to?
@@manafro2714 inside out
Ant: “If you cant explain it simply. You don’t understand it well enough. Can you direct me to one of your species who has a brain? Thanks.”
*gets book closed on them*
The alternative ending
Curiosity killed the ant
Cuenta Fake satisfaction brought it back?
Mason Galioth that’s rather stupid. I dare you to explain Planck constant simply without removing crucial or important pieces of information.
Basically without explaining it like you’d explain sex to a toddler after it walked in on you and your wife.
“We’re just wrestling cos adults like it”
I’ll simplify it then. It is, to be.
Did the universe say, "You see all these patterns, they are consciousness." "And we reply they don't look like consciousness" And it replies, "They represent them"
That invokes such deep thinking
Nice one.
Dude, thanks for the chills..
The patterns are screaming
Jesus Christ *The patterns are screaming.*
This is one of the best takes on Plato's allegory of the cave ive heard. This is how you represent the importance of knowledge, the human thirst for knowing that which we could never understand and the idea that true knowledge can only be obtained through philosophical reasoning, all in one short story! Also, it makes me wonder what a possible super evolved alien life-form would think of us when we dont even concider life forms below our selves. Great story man!
Maybe thinking this way is a humanly thinking, think we have less knowledge so we will see things from less knowledgeable point of view thus making assumptions that others's point of view will be same as us but maybe a super evolved alien life form could see things from a different perspective and will not be like us
@@mikuprincess9107 maybe this is the common way of thinking for a third dimensional bieng. We're concerned only by what we see, hear, and feel. Our thoughts are formed in and around everything that we are confined to. Such as the natural senses, physical space(that we take up) and time. But a 4th dimensional bieng would probably not think like we do. As they would not be confined by the same things. Perhaps a 4th dimensional bieng is still subject to space between its realm and ours but time becomes irrelivent to them. Perhaps it isn't until a 5th dimension that consciousness forms at its finest and nothing is as it is here.
@@combatpanda4264 agree. That's what I tried to say👍
I kinda don't like the statements like "we don't consider life forms below ourselves". It is not true, people (vary smart people) study all kinds of life on earth. We are tied to them ancestrally. The more we understand them, more we understand ourselves as well. Some of us even go to great lengths to spread awareness about certain species and to preserve them from human kind. An average Joe is oblivious to the animals around them does not mean we as a collective human civilization do not care/study about them.
Not rly but okay platos allegory is about how important it is to share your knowledge even if they don’t believe you

I love the small "easter egg" at the end. When the celestial being says, "Well, it's like this...", the music doesn't immediately fade out. Instead, it goes back to the image of the ant, comparing us to it, we have a lot of similarities (Sorry for being Capt. Obvious). But we could still hear music and faint whispers, signifying that we truly won't understand the meaning of life even if we were spoonfed it.
Wait until you return into dust, like that and and all of us
But since the moment the ant starts to ask the question, I already know its gonna be the most beautiful moment of his life or even the whole ant species. That moment when u ask what the meaning is, u already found the answer, its right in front of u. It takes time
Does he think like this all the time? Like while doing laundry?

Of all of the unimaginably big finites out there, this specific spot is one of the best ones to be conscious in
I don't know why I'm crying right now, I've been over a lot of stuff like this on my own time. Maybe acknowledging that the universe and life and everything could be an infinite and multi-sided problem you can never solve doesn't stop you from having feelings about it.
In any other context making long videos feel so short would be preferable, but you manage to make a 3 minute video last for eternity and now I'm making cinnamon rolls at 2:00 AM.
And, speaking from a perspective nine months later, were they good cinnamon rolls? When it comes to existential non-sleep, making rolls seems at least more productive than staring at a wall or at a screen. Were you completely tired the next day or was it worth it? :)

I absolutely love your work.I love when your videos have closed captions. Not only does it help me (too many concerts what what) but makes it accessible to those I want to share with. I'm a teacher and due to legislation it's tricky to use a resource that would swear. You must do so much editing, but I humbly plead for a class friendly version without a fuck, especially of your vids regarding dystopia and future. Uploaded separately, without surprise, I can think of nothing greater than your motivator of existential dread. My kids know the world"s fucked but are reluctant to step up. Responsibility is something they can shift, rather than take. 'What's the point, the world's fucked,' think they. I can show greats and exude classics, but an age where students have fucked their digital hygiene, your video essays shine. As hook, a foundation, and an anchor, you're a bridge between empathy and future. Please, in a perfect world, or at least one we can progress in, I would have freedom to educate; and until that time, please let generations access that which we hope they can bear.

When an ant crawls on you it’s no different to walking on any other surface. So yeah, like you said, if you think of it like this then it’s highly plausible that we are like ants living amongst something much larger.
Maybe, but they were ants too, once. There's no shame in being ants, I think, as this just means there's room for growth.
But... search for "Isaac Arthur, sleeping giants" on this here tuub to have your mind blown a little ;)
maybe we are ants to other beings intelligence wise
If we are like ants we are an army with many soldiers and we fought each other for many years
