    3. Finale that leaves me feeling like the last man left alive on the earth, watching my tiny campfire slowly burn out and knowing with equal parts faux-stoic apathy and creeping dread that when the light dies, I die.

      Here in Bulgaria, downloading torrents is legal. It is seen the same as borrowing a DVD or a book, as long as no one is making a profit anywhere in the process. *FUN FACT* the US government is putting massive pressure on the BG govt to change this. Cos you know the 1.5 million people in Bulgaria who speak English AND download moves etc are eating into the profits of the US media giants by maybe 0.0001%
      OR maybe its cos the BG govt IS right, in a digital world how DO you share a book...? Or lend a friend a DVD...?
      Incidentally, BG is always ahead of the world on this stuff - its a weird little country - BG introduced laws to regulate AI in 1983...!!! Theya re called "the Bulgarian Laws Of Robotics"

    I love your videos. Also, my fyp has been destroyed since my conspiracy theorist brother moved in. All JRE, biblically accurate angels and videos describing the most heinous crimes. I want my algorithm back.

    I’ve been trying to search up movie trailer for the past month on youtube, and every time the results are cluttered with obviously fake scam trailers with AI generated thumbnails, trailers for Bollywood movies I literally never watch, videos I watched yesterday, videos I watched a few days ago, and a bunch of low-grade b-movie trailers from studios or channels i dont know. If I want to find out about any indie or mainstream movie release I have to go to IMDB, which hasn’t yet made their search algorithm degenerate mostly because they have barely any internet traffic/interest

    i don’t usually comment, but you’re one of my fav youtube channels. i always come away from your videos feeling oddly hopeful, and not anxiety riddled lol. while i’m not always smart enough to catch some of your jokes, your writing and editing are very engaging. anyways your content is great, i’m always excited to see more😌

    *I BOUGHT A MECHANICAL TYPEWRITER* An Olympia SG-1 - its 20kg of mechanical word writing genius and it NEVER argues with me, it never corrects my grammar or spelling, it never interrupts my flow with a pop up, it never distracts me with a video I didn't know I needed to watch.
    Its not EASY to use, its physically quite a lot of work, but I'm way more productive and creative using it --> *the modern world has now become an impediment to productivity and creativity*

    Ro... Do everything you can to not allow your brilliant energies to be wasted on anything or anyone that choose to pull you from the glory you deserve. Please stay well. Keep your best self tucked away until you feel safe enough to shine. Take it from a millennial who has lost no hope through all these years but only the energy that whispered to me, 'You will play a part in the changing of this world.' godspeed my dear 🙏

    I always liked the Mad Magazine parody Cathy comics where they speculated how the strip was going to end, one of them being a mock of the comics where Cathy and her boyfriend are at a restaurant and her boyfriend mentions she's on a diet but he's reading off all the good sounding food as she goes "ack" in lamentation of what she can't have, only for the comic to end with the bf and her parents at Cathy's funeral with the bf saying "Well how was I supposed to know she was choking on a breadstick?"
