      I’m still wondering what happened with all of the accusations, but I’m so glad he uploaded something.
      Edit: Don’t listen to the person below me, he was NOT found guilty of sexual assault. It’s still under investigation. I’ve seen a few video calls between Exurb1a and the alleged victim on the victim’s discord server that give a little bit more information on the matter. I recommend doing some research on this, but remember, please separate the art from its creator. I’m not taking any sides, there just isn’t enough proof right now. The person making the accusations’ channel name is “shimmeriwoo”. Please don’t send hate, consider all sides of the story.
      This is a private matter and I don’t want to bug them about it; it really isn’t any of our business, so respect boundaries. It’s between Exurb1a, shimmeriwoo, and the law - not us. If you really want to help the matter, just let them handle it.
      Stay safe everyone.

      @@Exurb1a I remember starting the book. The first 'section' let's call it, from the start to the foundation of Bodhi; I would take notes thinking "wow Johannes represents the fool's journey to become a hero, Ursela represents the priestess, etc." Then I read the part about them sleeping together and thought "ha, he probably wrote this after getting laid from some girl, like how other authors create authentic stories based on moments of their lives." I stopped for a while and thought "damn it can't get much better than this, how is there still over half a book left?"
      Then came the part where the next two heroes stepped in (Hisarya and Leo). I stopped taking notes, and just let it work on me instead. I stopped again when Mriga took Hisarya and then they invaded Bodhi. I thought "How the heck is the story going to continue? Are there going to be new characters brought in? I was mad, really that you would just end that emotional journey with the Tereshkov family.
      I returned a few months ago having graduated high school, it was tough to keep up reading and life.
      This last part really was the magnum opus. With Leo as the main character, the story wrote itself it seemed. A good flow that came to be expected with real emotion. Then with the twist when Anaximander was revealed, it really makes this story only comparable with the Divine Comedy, in that it is a three part journey (loosely) through depression, struggle, and finding meaning.
      I hope this isn't too long winded but you should know how you inspire others like me with your stories. You make me feel less alone, more understood. You have even inspired me to write.

You have been incredibly important to me, even if it is a parasocial relationship, and that is why it hurts more than anything seeing what you are doing. If the accusations are untrue, it still hurts to see you hide from it and leave people confused, and if the accusations are true, all I can ask is for you to be honest. None of us will ever understand you fully, or the terrors you may face in your mind, but it is not fair that you continue to exact that same terror onto Pie.

      They did say that they came from two different civilizations. One of them focused on the pursuit of social constructs, the other focused on science. They both said their civilization got into stupid, meaningless wars that were trivial at that point. Maybe Geometry for Ocelots is actually a prequel to that video? Or a sequel where the two siblings follow the footsteps of either the bear or the goose? IDK, but it does seem that the bear and goose at the end of everything is at least loosely connected to this book.

    • @apollyonnoctis1291
      @apollyonnoctis1291 3 роки тому +11

      In fact, it might be both a prequel and a sequel due to the main belief of Buddhism. You know the video he released on the same day as this trailer that talks about Buddhism? As an off note, he says that the universe according to Buddhists does not have an actual beginning. Allow me to explain this:
      Buddhism has no creator god to explain the origin of the universe. Instead, it teaches that everything depends on everything else: present events are caused by past events and become the cause of future events. Indian religions often see space and time as cyclical, such that world-systems come into being, survive for a time, are destroyed and then are remade. In Buddhism this happens naturally without the intervention of gods. One tale told by the Buddha in the Aggan̄n̄a Sutta describes the process of recreation on this grand scale. An old world-system has just been destroyed, and its inhabitants are reborn in a new system. To begin with they are spirits, floating happily above the earth, luminescent and without form, name or sex. Their greed causes them to become physical. A cycle of suffering happens, and eventually ends with all achieving Nirvana and the world being destroyed.
      Remember how Bear and Goose both say they think they actually had names, but call themselves by their species because they forgot it a while ago?
      I believe that this entire story is a cycle. Bear and Goose create the universe, the people in this new universe make the same mistakes, leading to the end of everything where Bear and Goose make the universe again. An infinite cycle of suffering, just like the Buddhist idea of Samsara.

      @@kingmidasxynopyt I get your point but still it's harsh. I mean most awful stuff known to mankind is a stretch, even if true it was a VERY small percentage of these populations that ever did any of these things, during wartime. Should all Americans be responsible for War Crimes committed in Iraq, or CIA Black-site torture?
      And where do you come from? I wouldn't say the Balkans are forgotten but its a hard thing to define really. How is a country remembered or forgotten and why does it matter, the population who lives there are just like anyone else and the opinions of the world don't do much to affect their everyday lives.

    I'm a Latvian. I'm just at an awe of how you've managed to find such a specific song. From a very influential artist for it's time. It's my parents time pop music.
    On a different note: I LOVED The Fifth Science! Gonna get this one once it's in physical, senseibal form.
