  1. This video is how I envision Hell. I think Heaven and Hell are concepts, not places… but the concepts playout here on Earth, because that's where human concepts exist. Hell is a constant cycle of being devoured. It takes a long time for a consciousness to go through this cycle and emerge into a less chaotic existence. The great consciousness reset. Then the consciousness progresses through more complex forms and eventually making it to more visible sizes. Then on up through insects and on up to greater life forms. Sometimes making it all the way to mammals. The theory being that each step is less chaotic than the last, usually because of greater powers of perception. I believe there is a certain amount of vague information retention, that can help a consciousness advance. Kind of like when a person who believes in reincarnation, will call someone an "old soul". Meaning that they somehow seem to have an awareness that others do not. I blame this effect on the different paths (and the different lengths of those paths) that consciousness takes to reach its current spot in its eternal journey.

    My definition of life is something that can perceive one moment, and then perceive the next moment, and then be able to remember the difference between the two moments, even if the only difference is chronological. We are mired in an existence of cause and effect and currently those are the limits of our perception. That is why the observation experiments in physics are so enticing to me. It may be an arena where cause and effect goes out the window. It could be a path to the Heaven(ish) effect that would end chaos. Even though to our current limited perception, it seems to exaggerate chaos.

    Concerning observation: I believe observation is essential to existence. With no life anywhere to perceive… nothing exists. I believe that life's evolution and the cosmos's evolution go hand in hand, and either both began at the same time, or they have no beginning, or… beginning and end are simple concepts and all that we can currently perceive (cause and effect), and once we are a more perceptive lifeform (or some other more perceptive lifeform appears), then the concept of a beginning and an end my seem ludicrous, in the same place it once seemed essential.

  2. Took me a few days to get through this, but it’s always a delight. Some repeat videos meant I watched certain sections for the third or fourth time, but I don’t mind. Interesting and entertaining as always.

  3. Absolutely no particle of gold can have different properties similarly no part or portions of infinite can be different from infiniteness. In sanatan Hinduism we call it Shivohum or sham bramhasmi. In all other religious belief God all, divinity is everywhere and in everything. Actual infiteness is different from maths and science infinite.

  4. I dont think demodex will ever be fully symbiotic with us, solely because they do poop on us which if enough builds up creates the blackheads, but i definitely dont see them as parasitic moreso as somewhere in between. They eat a lot of dirt, oil, and dead skin just to replace it with excrement. Unless in the future their poop turns out to have some kind of property that either reduces the risk of other microbial invaders or it can increase healing of cuts on the face.

  5. Oh heck yee, this will be perfect to listen to during my evening routine and drift off to. Thank you for this; long vids like this help me cope with my insomnia and Just Relax In Bed which leads to more Falling Back Asleep before dawn. Not every time, but any time I manage to drift off a second time makes a huge difference to the next day.

  6. My parents played "little Einstein" and "little Mozart" for me when I was a toddler. I'm going to play this for my own whenever I decide to have some.

  7. This is the first video of this channel to pop up on my feed. It took me 12 minutes to realize it was Hank Green narrating. I've never subscribed faster upon realization.

  8. Dude you said the word “death” “dead” etc maybe 500 times in this video. You already have an older video about death? I’m taking this personally I feel like Hank is making a video “ special” for me to coax me into suicide. lol and no I do not have any existential dread you seem like one of little brothers friends who is about 5 seconds away from me giving a wedgy to.

  9. Endoproct or exoproct that's the question?
    I can't seem to find (or remember) the part of the video wich explains 🤔😐
    Nice video… But would be better if I could find that part again!
    Greetings bibia

  10. I wonder, when I leave my dogs pool for a few weeks it starts getting some brown/green stuff on the bottom. Over time this stuff collects into lumps like small colonies with a very clear and clean border like something is living there and collecting everything within 1cm reach to make a shelter. I can't see anything obvious and big so I assume it belongs to the microcosmos.
    I can't find any pictures of this phenomenon or descriptions of what is happening or which microorganisms are at work. Any ideas?
