I watched a bee fall asleep in a flower. Like it flew into the flower, moved around to find the comfiest position, and it's little antennae went down and it tucked it's feet in. It was one of the cutest things I've ever seen
Any aquarium store worth its salt will do the same when people are buying small schooling fish like tetras. Instead of buying two each of like 8 different species, just get two dozen of the same species. They will be more active and happy
@@CheyenneABrown122 please do them a favour and try not to beat em down too hard •Π• i suffer with embarassing thoughts most of which haunt me while im tryna sleep
"Some fish like to be petted." Just be sure to leave them in the water. Many years ago, at the store where I work in the pet department, there was this lady who came in every few days to buy new goldfish. Turned out that she couldn't get it through her three year old's head that it was NOT okay to take them out of the water to pet and snuggle...
I'm surprised that the 3 yr old could catch them. Don't get me wrong, them little suckers are fast, but I didn’t think they were coordinated enough to catch a fish that small.
The therapy cat one reminded me very much of my own cat. I have sensory overload and mental breakdowns, which cause me to go into a panic and have an intense urge to hurt myself. Whenever I was panicking, or trying to scratch up my arms or face, my cat would run in and cry at me and pull my arms to try and get me to stop. Usually it works, and helps me take my attention off of the thought. But a couple weeks ago when I had an attack, he got frustrated with me because I wasn't listening, and bit my arm. I got pretty upset about it, but I ceased from hurting myself, and managed to calm down afterwards. Aside from preventing me from harm, he will also try to comfort me when I'm upset or crying. If he hears me getting upset, he'll run up to me and meow and try to poke my face or lay next to me. For being such a brat, he's truly like a guardian to me, and he's always been there to make sure I'm safe from myself.
I've seen crows in my city play the dive game. They fall off a telephone pole or a tree straight down and open their wings real low and skim across the street. I didn't understand what they were doing until the third one hit the curb and ate shit and his friends cawed (laughed) at him
Oh no. Not me crying over sleeping bees. That's so freaking wholesome. Life is shit right now and knowing there is at least one sleepy bee tucked away for a rest rn brings me so much comfort. My whole emotional ass
I'm 23 now lol, I feel fucking ancient next to some of the lads i work with, only one of whom has even reached 20 yet. and I'm certain im the least experienced/qualified guy there. its... not good for my self esteem really
I mean my grandma was old, but she definitely influenced me to be a better person through the stories my dad told of her. She was like a second mother to my cousins who lived with her. She was like a second mom to my mom too, and also taught her recipes that we can still enjoy now that she passed away. The lady was a badass and we have many funny stories to remember her. So it doesn't have to be a huge impact, but just enough that it makes people happy to have known you.
@@thelonggame9166 Good luck in whatever you decide, Stanley. Might not mean much coming from some rando on the internet, but still. I'm 32 and have a job interview at the local supermarket on Wednesday in the morning. I'm still trying to figure out what I'm doing with my life.
@@Maniacman2030 Your comment counts and will be considered. One of the things that makes my situation unique is that I original went back to school at 29. Ended up with a PhD in computer engineering. I'm not seeing so many things in tech that are being mishandled by the law that I'm thinking of going back to school for a third time. This is the United States. We're are lucky enough that we can remake ourselves anytime...even yourself. So if you find yourself wanting more...go get it. "Yeah, but the expense..." I know.
Almost lawyer here (as in just a couple of months shy from actually graduating). Law school isn’t for everyone, really think it through. Law can be either very rewarding or extremely misery inducing. Whatever path you chose, think about what will make you happy!
Talking about relatable stuff with others can improve your mental health, at least temporarily. When looking at relatable memes, I get that same warm and happy feeling that I also get when I talk about stuff to others irl or in online chats, and they relate. Idk if others have this same experience, but if they do, then I think relatable memes can improve your mental health.
Yeah. As toxic as the internet is, it can sometimes be used for things that would otherwise wouldn’t exist ever. I can feel connected to more people ever ima comfortable environment with the help of the Internet. Perhaps if less people were keyboard warriors things would look different.
i remember a while ago everyone was losing their minds over and vilifying self deprecating relatable memes and yeah, their criticism _is_ right to a certain extent but honestly i think those memes are fine and kind of comforting
About a year ago, I was picking up my gf in her car (a VERY generic gray sedan) and a random girl got in, realized almost immediately that she got in the wrong car. The look of mortification on her face was very funny. I will NEVER forget a memory that is something she undoubtedly remembers.
"They can what?" at the end was great. It's also true, there are species of spiders that use web-paragliders to travel by wind. It used to be believed that those white strands floating around every late summer were old women's hairs. Nope, those are flying spiders. More good facts: -what you did in school almost entirely doesn't matter. May sound depressing, but it also means whatever you did wrong back then will almost certainly not haunt your adult life -many more young people every year reject smoking and similar drugs, opting for healthier lifestyles -religious nutcases, extremist left/rightwingers and other ideologes may seem to be gaining more influence and the world may seem to become more dangerous, but the reality is: crime as a thing is going down nearly everywhere, you just might not notice because the news profit from negative messages more than positive ones --there are also more volunteers and private crime fighters; look up Jim Browning, that guy is basicly a RL internet Batman fighting scammers not just passively but actively and helping the police, so if he can thag means others can too
The thing about no one remembering your cringey moments is that this logic gets applied to the moments you were emotionally hurt as well. It's not comforting to know that not only did someone think you weren't deserving of basic human respect, they don't think what they did was damaging enough or that you are worth apologizing for you. Things that if someone else did to them, they would take great offense, but it's all in the past because they did it to you. Just feels like doubling down on the disrespect.
Everything has pros and a cons. It's the same for everything that exists and nothing can ever be perfect. Human Rights for instance. Free Speech means you can speak your mind, but at the same time, it also allows for opinions and ideas that might otherwise be offensive to others. "Hate Speech" laws are the epitome of evil and control, as it only enforces the beliefs of one group and controls it for everyone else. It's not the government's place to decide what people should think. Just the Bill of Rights in general, at this point. Every amendment has its own pros and cons. Ownership of self defense arms will always result in someone using those to commit evil against their fellow humans. What does banning or limiting them do aside from harm those who wouldn't have committed evil anyway? Anyway, I think you get the point. There's always a negative to everything when you really think about it.
The thing is to forgive yourself. Which hardly ever seems to happen. And is kinda laughed at. Like its more important others to forgive you. Yea either say sorry if you are wrong, but dont expect forgiveness. And dont dwell on others wronging you, because they dont care anyway. And its hard. Its like a sharp pain that turns into a dull ache over months or years. Situations are also totally random. People say let it go if a random person says something offensive. Maybe you can get over it in minutes, or days.
Yes. I had a girl who sided with the bullies but only once tried to instigate an insult herself (and sounded like a complete idiot, though the rest agreed with her) who was beside herself when we met a few years after and was desperate to apologize and atone for what she did. I recognized even at the time that she only wanted to fit in and have friends so followed the lead from the rest of the class. Then there's the boy who started the entire bullying and was the most brutal and prolific of them, the only one who ever made it physical (hand to hand, throwing stuff or wasps doesn't count). After he saw me years later he pretended he didn't know me. But I know he did because I saw him a few more times after that and one time I greeted him by name and he asked after my brothers. My brothers never attended that school (homeschooled), very few people or classmates even knew or remebered that I had siblings, and only a handful ever met them, but this boy lived in the neighbourhood, my only boon was that he avoided our street for the more "getto" ones a few blocks over, even though he knew where I lived. He would still harrass me and insult me if he saw me alone walking the streets though. So I believe that as you said, in the girl's case, that was one of her cringy, awful moments, but for the boy, even though his personality had changed 180° since we were in school together, he didn't seem to acknowledge his actions at all.
The bees sleeping in the flowers are so freaking adorable, I've noticed them too. One time I found a large bumblebee inside a daffodil just bobbing around in the wind, and it was one of the most adorable things I've ever seen
"if you find people are often staring at you, chances are you're pretty attractive" So you're telling me I get pissed off about them staring at me for no reason?
Not gonna lie, sometimes I blank stare at people. I'll be thinking of something else while looking at a person walking down the street. Like maybe I'll see their shoes and I'll be thinking about shoes for a while. Then they'll look at me and I have to look away because I notice I'm staring.
@@RedFoxSkull it means that life is hard if you.look at it as a whole. But if you take it in small bits and pieces its easier to deal with....grandma used to say it all the time
Everyone walks through life alone. We just have people that walk beside us for a while before the paths diverge. Feels a lot less lonely when you put it that way for some reason.

I had to have brain surgery 3 years ago to remove a tumor wrapped around my brain stem. Turns out the tumor was benign. According to my mom I was awake and liking her Facebook posts within hours of the surgery being completed, and within a month I was attending my second year of tech school. 3 years later I have my own apartment and have met some great people who live in the same apartment complex as me.
12:52 my mom has sleep apnea. before she got her cpap machine, one of her cats would slap her to wake her up if she stopped breathing. one time my grandpa had a sore leg, one of our cats sat on his leg and purred nonstop. cats are the best pets 🥰
12:45 That reminds me of my cat. Whenever she wanted something from us, she would meow. But, when we were in the middle of a conversation, she would always wait until there was a short break between us talking. This way, it always seemed like she was participating in our conversation. As if she was making a comment to what we just said.
My uncle is a manager at a blood donation business here in Canada. Up until a year ago, he was unable to donate blood because he wasn’t allowed to due to being openly gay. Come one random afternoon and he is excitedly messaging the whole family about his first donation and sending us pictures. Not long after, his boyfriend did the same! :D
That one about people only remembering their own humiliating moments is so true. I remember all mine in detail but can’t recall others humiliating moments unless it was something truly epic.
Blue-tongue skinks are considered one of the most playful, inquisitive reptiles. They’re trainable and can recognize people. Their only defense mechanism is opening their mouth and sticking their tongue out to ward off predators. They will sit on you for hours, and they will lick you as a sign of contentment. Mine will usually come to the front of her enclosure and beg for attention if I come into the room. Also, their legs are tiny and pretty much useless, but they’re really cute. I love the little guys
Correct. He became a self-taught professional carpenter because he wasn't happy with the roles he was being offered. He needed something more stable to support his (then) wife and children. Sort of the way some actors who haven't hit it big _are_ actors, but need a job (server, whatever) to make ends meet.
I had a classmate that, every time she spaced out and stared at someone in the halls, she would smile and say "Hi!" It was mostly because of her anxiety I think, but it was a really cute quirk nonetheless, she said it was because she felt awkward and she didn't want the other person to feel awkward too- so she'd just say hi.
10:05 We will never forget Stan Lee. As a Marvel fan (even though I don't read a lot of the comics or watch a lot of the shows and movies, I still consider myself a Marvel fan because I admire the writing of the characters and a lot of their stuff is really fun to see) it hurt when I heard that he died. Even Roblox, a game full of toxic people, had games made entirely to mourn and memorialize the life of that legend.
If you ever have a pet rat and he chews on your fingernails, it's not him trying to bite or nip at you, it's a sign of affection. He's grooming you, like how your cat will bring you dead rodents to make sure you're eating or how dogs will try and give your hand a tongue bath. It's a little effort at positively improving your life, no matter how small and it warms the heart to know they're looking out for you
My grandad was completely against our family's first trip to Disney World. He believed it would be a great waste of money and he was determined to hate the whole experience. He's the one who loved it the most. A few years later after he finished his cancer treatment, he paid for another holiday. He died 2 years later. My mum and I try to return every 5 years or so. Every time I set foot in Magic Kingdom, I just cry my eyes out. Because I can feel that he's there. Disney did an impossible thing. Melted the cold heart of a grumpy old man ❤ I love you, Grandad, I wish I could hear you call me Elizabeth just one more time. 1926-2006 ❤❤❤
Also that from a psychological perspective, the reason we cringe - i.e. recognise wrong things or inappropriate things in our past behaviour - is because we've grown and learnt from that. Do we ever cringe at our actions we're most proud of? No. So when you suddenly cringe at something you did way back, embrace the cringe, tell yourself you're cringing because you wouldn't repeat that mistake again and you've learnt from it, and because you've learnt from it, you probably don't have to undergo a similar mortifying experience again.

I for one definitely remember other people doing embarrassing things. But I don't judge them for it and wouldn't ever bring it up unless I knew they'd think it funny. It's not true that people don't remember you doing embarrassing things. But it is true that it feels way worse for you than the others who experienced it with you. Most likely it's a case of secondhand embarrassment and a sense of being glad it wasn't them that did it. But there is likely a plethora of things that you personally experienced to be awkward or embarrassing that other people genuinely don't notice or don't even register that that was something that embarrassed you. I'm that way sometimes - when people drop things, I really don't give a damn because I also drop things. But if it's a birthday cake for instance and someone slips and falls in it, well, I'll remember that til the day I die. Fondly.
My mom died very suddenly this summer and it was really hard to say goodbye to her. I was plagued with the knowledge that I'd never get to say goodbye, never get to hear her voice, never get to feel her hug again. . . Three days after her death I had a dream about her. Where she told me she loved me, and hugged me in it (and all the weird dream bullshit that usually comes about). No matter how much it hurts to lose someone, their memory lives on in you, even in your subconcious mind, you'll remember them.

They truly don't know how much great affect they have on you but they really do. I love you Shrek, I wish things could have been different and you could have came with me, but I know she loves you too and needs you just about as much as I could right now.
@@trenchrock True. But it’s also good to let that happen by letting go your own energy attached to those who have passed because by doing so your own energy can shift. If you use that to propel you forward, that energy of the deceased can move forward as well.
This is more comforting in a morbid sense, but at least it helped me mostly get over my existential dread at night: Countless people have already died before you, you will die too, and countless more will die after you're gone. You aren't alone in this experience. It's one everyone has to share. You're all going together.
According to science or religion, you won't truly die. The religion part is obvious because of the fact that you might go to heaven or something, but the science explanation says that since the universe will die and be reborn infinitely, that means that literally anything and everything will happen. You will someday wake up in a better place with all your memories. The chances of that happening are extremely low, but not zero. Not only that, but consciousness most likely has something to do with stuff at the atomic level, so that means we can basically rebuild your consciousness from your own atoms even if it is burnt to ash because of the laws of thermodynamics. The explanation is very long so i will keep it at that.
@@liagamer4265 I mean according to the laws of thermodynamics, you can't truly destroy, or make anything. If you're talking about the universe being reborn, that has to due with the theory that the universe will reborn after it dies. Also, it doesn't take a genius to figure out the fact that anything will happen infinitely in infinite time.

My sister has two bunnies (Truffle and S’more) that love to hang out together.

It’s a scientifically proven fact that plants have friends too. Trees in a number of forests “communicate” with each other via fungal filaments, aka mycelium. For example, if one maple tree is being attacked by aphids, the tree will send out electrical messages to nearby maple trees, giving them time to prepare for an aphid attack.
0:46 I needed that right now. Also, the word "sonder" means: "the profound feeling of realizing that everyone, including strangers passing in the street, has a life as complex as one's own, which they are constantly living despite one's personal lack of awareness of it."
Octopi are often friendly with divers. I saw a video once that showed a stranded octopus being saved by someone, the octopus then appeared to “thank” its rescuer with an ink squirt. There is also a species of goby that teams up with a kind of burrowing shrimp for survival. The shrimp digs a home for the two of them, and the goby returns the favor by alerting the shrimp to predators such as big fish. The goby will also guide the shrimp back to the burrow (the shrimp has poor eyesight) and will help the shrimp find food.

A good reason why blind people smile the same as anyone else is likely very biological - it's how the face muscles and bone structure affect their movement. Laughing is always coupled with a smile-like facial expression, which means laughing pulls all the smile muscles.
I have been blind in one eye since birth. I also lost my sight at about age 4. I may not be able to smile properly, but I can at least laugh. And apparently, when I laugh, my face does light up in a proper smile.

I had two platys (a kind of small fish commonly found at pet stores) that would always hang out together, often ignoring the other residents of my 30 gallon tank, including another platy. When they would accidentally get separated, they would look for each other, find their partner, and resume swimming around together. Sadly, this came to an end when my bright orange platy developed a severe case of bloat( a condition caused by gas buildup in the gut) and was moved to a small separate tank for treatment with epsom salt ( a kind of salt that usually functions as a kind of bath salt for humans, but can be used to treat certain conditions in fish) Unfortunately, the orange platy did not survive the treatment, and was disposed of after I conducted an autopsy on her. (I got the answers on what caused her death, but that’s a separate story.) Her buddy must have spent a few days looking for her friend, wondering “ Where is my girlfriend, where did she get taken to, I miss her “ Thankfully, this platy, also female, did eventually pair up with the other surviving platy in the tank. It’s like a classic Disney movie.

Elephants have been documented mourning the loss of herd members and humans they had close bonds with on numerous occasions. When Lawrence B Anthony (I hope I spelled that correctly) aka The Elephant Whisperer, died in 2012, the herd of elephants he saved came to his house for several years on the anniversary of his death (around March 2nd) The elephants sometimes travelled for several hours to get there. Some elephants hadn’t been at the house in years. Also, elephants will have a celebration of sorts when a calf is born. The herd will gather around the calf and trumpet loudly while also covering the newborn elephant with dirt. This is to protect the calf’s sensitive skin from the sun. Elephants will sometimes adopt orphaned elephant calves too. Elephants are far smarter than some people give them credit for.
Comforting fact: no matter how bad things get, it will be over at some point, you won't suffer forever. Either the problem will be fixed, or you'll sleep, or you'll just die. Idk if this is comforting for other people but I like to know that nothing lasts forever.

Aside from preventing me from harm, he will also try to comfort me when I'm upset or crying. If he hears me getting upset, he'll run up to me and meow and try to poke my face or lay next to me.

Talking about relatable stuff with others can improve your mental health, at least temporarily. When looking at relatable memes, I get that same warm and happy feeling that I also get when I talk about stuff to others irl or in online chats, and they relate. Idk if others have this same experience, but if they do, then I think relatable memes can improve your mental health.
Yeah. As toxic as the internet is, it can sometimes be used for things that would otherwise wouldn’t exist ever. I can feel connected to more people ever ima comfortable environment with the help of the Internet. Perhaps if less people were keyboard warriors things would look different.
i remember a while ago everyone was losing their minds over and vilifying self deprecating relatable memes and yeah, their criticism _is_ right to a certain extent but honestly i think those memes are fine and kind of comforting
"Gut Flora" is a good name for a band.

About a year ago, I was picking up my gf in her car (a VERY generic gray sedan) and a random girl got in, realized almost immediately that she got in the wrong car. The look of mortification on her face was very funny. I will NEVER forget a memory that is something she undoubtedly remembers.
"They can what?" at the end was great. It's also true, there are species of spiders that use web-paragliders to travel by wind. It used to be believed that those white strands floating around every late summer were old women's hairs. Nope, those are flying spiders.
More good facts:
-what you did in school almost entirely doesn't matter. May sound depressing, but it also means whatever you did wrong back then will almost certainly not haunt your adult life
-many more young people every year reject smoking and similar drugs, opting for healthier lifestyles
-religious nutcases, extremist left/rightwingers and other ideologes may seem to be gaining more influence and the world may seem to become more dangerous, but the reality is: crime as a thing is going down nearly everywhere, you just might not notice because the news profit from negative messages more than positive ones
--there are also more volunteers and private crime fighters; look up Jim Browning, that guy is basicly a RL internet Batman fighting scammers not just passively but actively and helping the police, so if he can thag means others can too

The thing about no one remembering your cringey moments is that this logic gets applied to the moments you were emotionally hurt as well. It's not comforting to know that not only did someone think you weren't deserving of basic human respect, they don't think what they did was damaging enough or that you are worth apologizing for you. Things that if someone else did to them, they would take great offense, but it's all in the past because they did it to you. Just feels like doubling down on the disrespect.
Everything has pros and a cons. It's the same for everything that exists and nothing can ever be perfect. Human Rights for instance. Free Speech means you can speak your mind, but at the same time, it also allows for opinions and ideas that might otherwise be offensive to others. "Hate Speech" laws are the epitome of evil and control, as it only enforces the beliefs of one group and controls it for everyone else. It's not the government's place to decide what people should think.
Just the Bill of Rights in general, at this point. Every amendment has its own pros and cons. Ownership of self defense arms will always result in someone using those to commit evil against their fellow humans. What does banning or limiting them do aside from harm those who wouldn't have committed evil anyway? Anyway, I think you get the point. There's always a negative to everything when you really think about it.
Your right, I just silently loathe that person because ususlly its not even worth your energy
The thing is to forgive yourself. Which hardly ever seems to happen. And is kinda laughed at.
Like its more important others to forgive you. Yea either say sorry if you are wrong, but dont expect forgiveness. And dont dwell on others wronging you, because they dont care anyway.
And its hard. Its like a sharp pain that turns into a dull ache over months or years. Situations are also totally random. People say let it go if a random person says something offensive. Maybe you can get over it in minutes, or days.
But maybe those are exactly their cringy moments and whenever they are reminded of when they hurt you they feel ashamed and hope you don't remember.
Yes. I had a girl who sided with the bullies but only once tried to instigate an insult herself (and sounded like a complete idiot, though the rest agreed with her) who was beside herself when we met a few years after and was desperate to apologize and atone for what she did. I recognized even at the time that she only wanted to fit in and have friends so followed the lead from the rest of the class. Then there's the boy who started the entire bullying and was the most brutal and prolific of them, the only one who ever made it physical (hand to hand, throwing stuff or wasps doesn't count). After he saw me years later he pretended he didn't know me. But I know he did because I saw him a few more times after that and one time I greeted him by name and he asked after my brothers. My brothers never attended that school (homeschooled), very few people or classmates even knew or remebered that I had siblings, and only a handful ever met them, but this boy lived in the neighbourhood, my only boon was that he avoided our street for the more "getto" ones a few blocks over, even though he knew where I lived. He would still harrass me and insult me if he saw me alone walking the streets though.
So I believe that as you said, in the girl's case, that was one of her cringy, awful moments, but for the boy, even though his personality had changed 180° since we were in school together, he didn't seem to acknowledge his actions at all.
The bees sleeping in the flowers are so freaking adorable, I've noticed them too. One time I found a large bumblebee inside a daffodil just bobbing around in the wind, and it was one of the most adorable things I've ever seen

Blue-tongue skinks are considered one of the most playful, inquisitive reptiles. They’re trainable and can recognize people. Their only defense mechanism is opening their mouth and sticking their tongue out to ward off predators. They will sit on you for hours, and they will lick you as a sign of contentment. Mine will usually come to the front of her enclosure and beg for attention if I come into the room. Also, their legs are tiny and pretty much useless, but they’re really cute. I love the little guys
Harrison ford was 24 in his first movie. He was 35 when star wars was released
Correct. He became a self-taught professional carpenter because he wasn't happy with the roles he was being offered. He needed something more stable to support his (then) wife and children. Sort of the way some actors who haven't hit it big _are_ actors, but need a job (server, whatever) to make ends meet.
I had a classmate that, every time she spaced out and stared at someone in the halls, she would smile and say "Hi!" It was mostly because of her anxiety I think, but it was a really cute quirk nonetheless, she said it was because she felt awkward and she didn't want the other person to feel awkward too- so she'd just say hi.

Even Roblox, a game full of toxic people, had games made entirely to mourn and memorialize the life of that legend.

If you ever have a pet rat and he chews on your fingernails, it's not him trying to bite or nip at you, it's a sign of affection. He's grooming you, like how your cat will bring you dead rodents to make sure you're eating or how dogs will try and give your hand a tongue bath. It's a little effort at positively improving your life, no matter how small and it warms the heart to know they're looking out for you
No matter how bad I am at something, there will always be someone worse than me.
My grandad was completely against our family's first trip to Disney World. He believed it would be a great waste of money and he was determined to hate the whole experience. He's the one who loved it the most. A few years later after he finished his cancer treatment, he paid for another holiday. He died 2 years later. My mum and I try to return every 5 years or so. Every time I set foot in Magic Kingdom, I just cry my eyes out. Because I can feel that he's there. Disney did an impossible thing. Melted the cold heart of a grumpy old man ❤ I love you, Grandad, I wish I could hear you call me Elizabeth just one more time. 1926-2006 ❤❤❤
Also that from a psychological perspective, the reason we cringe - i.e. recognise wrong things or inappropriate things in our past behaviour - is because we've grown and learnt from that. Do we ever cringe at our actions we're most proud of? No. So when you suddenly cringe at something you did way back, embrace the cringe, tell yourself you're cringing because you wouldn't repeat that mistake again and you've learnt from it, and because you've learnt from it, you probably don't have to undergo a similar mortifying experience again.

In a world of bad vibes, pets are what give the good vibe.
I for one definitely remember other people doing embarrassing things. But I don't judge them for it and wouldn't ever bring it up unless I knew they'd think it funny. It's not true that people don't remember you doing embarrassing things. But it is true that it feels way worse for you than the others who experienced it with you. Most likely it's a case of secondhand embarrassment and a sense of being glad it wasn't them that did it. But there is likely a plethora of things that you personally experienced to be awkward or embarrassing that other people genuinely don't notice or don't even register that that was something that embarrassed you. I'm that way sometimes - when people drop things, I really don't give a damn because I also drop things. But if it's a birthday cake for instance and someone slips and falls in it, well, I'll remember that til the day I die. Fondly.
My mom died very suddenly this summer and it was really hard to say goodbye to her. I was plagued with the knowledge that I'd never get to say goodbye, never get to hear her voice, never get to feel her hug again. . . Three days after her death I had a dream about her. Where she told me she loved me, and hugged me in it (and all the weird dream bullshit that usually comes about).
No matter how much it hurts to lose someone, their memory lives on in you, even in your subconcious mind, you'll remember them.

They truly don't know how much great affect they have on you but they really do.

No one ever really dies. Their energy just passes to something or someone else.
Well, now you got someone to live for. You have a torch to carry. It’s both a burden and a blessing. You decide that difference
@@trenchrock True. But it’s also good to let that happen by letting go your own energy attached to those who have passed because by doing so your own energy can shift. If you use that to propel you forward, that energy of the deceased can move forward as well.
Sorry to hear that btw
This is more comforting in a morbid sense, but at least it helped me mostly get over my existential dread at night: Countless people have already died before you, you will die too, and countless more will die after you're gone. You aren't alone in this experience. It's one everyone has to share. You're all going together.
🐙🎈 sighs and lets go of balloon...
According to science or religion, you won't truly die. The religion part is obvious because of the fact that you might go to heaven or something, but the science explanation says that since the universe will die and be reborn infinitely, that means that literally anything and everything will happen. You will someday wake up in a better place with all your memories. The chances of that happening are extremely low, but not zero. Not only that, but consciousness most likely has something to do with stuff at the atomic level, so that means we can basically rebuild your consciousness from your own atoms even if it is burnt to ash because of the laws of thermodynamics. The explanation is very long so i will keep it at that.
@@501thtrooper4 Source?
@@liagamer4265 I mean according to the laws of thermodynamics, you can't truly destroy, or make anything.
If you're talking about the universe being reborn, that has to due with the theory that the universe will reborn after it dies. Also, it doesn't take a genius to figure out the fact that anything will happen infinitely in infinite time.

It’s a scientifically proven fact that plants have friends too. Trees in a number of forests “communicate” with each other via fungal filaments, aka mycelium. For example, if one maple tree is being attacked by aphids, the tree will send out electrical messages to nearby maple trees, giving them time to prepare for an aphid attack.
0:46 I needed that right now. Also, the word "sonder" means: "the profound feeling of realizing that everyone, including strangers passing in the street, has a life as complex as one's own, which they are constantly living despite one's personal lack of awareness of it."
Octopi are often friendly with divers. I saw a video once that showed a stranded octopus being saved by someone, the octopus then appeared to “thank” its rescuer with an ink squirt. There is also a species of goby that teams up with a kind of burrowing shrimp for survival. The shrimp digs a home for the two of them, and the goby returns the favor by alerting the shrimp to predators such as big fish. The goby will also guide the shrimp back to the burrow (the shrimp has poor eyesight) and will help the shrimp find food.

A good reason why blind people smile the same as anyone else is likely very biological - it's how the face muscles and bone structure affect their movement. Laughing is always coupled with a smile-like facial expression, which means laughing pulls all the smile muscles.
I have been blind in one eye since birth. I also lost my sight at about age 4. I may not be able to smile properly, but I can at least laugh. And apparently, when I laugh, my face does light up in a proper smile.

In 2020 after the whole outbreak, I forced myself to learn how to make plushies because I was lonely and there were a few fictional characters I liked a lot,
Now I'm 16 and have an odd combination of: Ace Copular from Powerpuff girls, Tagora Gorjek from hiveswap friends I'm, and a random original character all piled on my bed lol
How'd you make them? Crocheting? My mom has done that. She has made a few characters from my stories.
I had two platys (a kind of small fish commonly found at pet stores) that would always hang out together, often ignoring the other residents of my 30 gallon tank, including another platy. When they would accidentally get separated, they would look for each other, find their partner, and resume swimming around together. Sadly, this came to an end when my bright orange platy developed a severe case of bloat( a condition caused by gas buildup in the gut) and was moved to a small separate tank for treatment with epsom salt ( a kind of salt that usually functions as a kind of bath salt for humans, but can be used to treat certain conditions in fish) Unfortunately, the orange platy did not survive the treatment, and was disposed of after I conducted an autopsy on her. (I got the answers on what caused her death, but that’s a separate story.) Her buddy must have spent a few days looking for her friend, wondering “ Where is my girlfriend, where did she get taken to, I miss her “ Thankfully, this platy, also female, did eventually pair up with the other surviving platy in the tank. It’s like a classic Disney movie.

Elephants have been documented mourning the loss of herd members and humans they had close bonds with on numerous occasions. When Lawrence B Anthony (I hope I spelled that correctly) aka The Elephant Whisperer, died in 2012, the herd of elephants he saved came to his house for several years on the anniversary of his death (around March 2nd) The elephants sometimes travelled for several hours to get there. Some elephants hadn’t been at the house in years. Also, elephants will have a celebration of sorts when a calf is born. The herd will gather around the calf and trumpet loudly while also covering the newborn elephant with dirt. This is to protect the calf’s sensitive skin from the sun. Elephants will sometimes adopt orphaned elephant calves too. Elephants are far smarter than some people give them credit for.
