i thought the exact same thing. i was expecting the woman to turn into her real form of the snake in the end but god what actually happened was so much better.

@@Beyond_XP The snake is you. The snake is very much real, and you create it within yourself. The lesson is to realize it, deal with it, and not to waste your life looking for meaning in things that happen. Absurdism is the red thread with exurb1a. Well, the base. Reality is a wonder in itself, there's not enough life in a person for them to not explore possibility. From what I gather, he's interested in letting people wonder about whatever it is they want to. But to successfully do that, one needs to let go of things like finding the evil, searching for god, etc. I hope that helps the understanding a bit. The snake is within us all, it's the analogy for obsession, rage, and resentfulness over essentially meaningless things. People die, how or why doesn't matter. Honor them if you feel like it, but that also doesn't matter in the end. I remember my mom, she passed before I became an adult; and I make sure she'd have been proud. But I'm not mad at cancer, resentful for doctors not discovering at a saveable state, and I refuse to hate myself for not being there when she died. Stuff happened, horrible stuff. But stuff nonetheless, and that's all there is to it. The real meaning is the one you create for yourself, and when you realise that, you'll truly be okay. Just live, now. Live in the moment, explore whatever, and have fun when you can. I choose to help others, and I'm doing good by the standards I set.

She is the snake and he lost

Is it that the snake is within us

Agreed

Who are you quoting?

Often death is from deficiency, some thing missing that causes a living thing's foundation to form holes which will inevitably cause it to crumble, naturally life was shaped by the harsh, cyclic conditions of a world driven by disorder, but if all needs were fulfilled a living thing would then live forever. In the end all starve, slowly with holes begetting holes faster than they can be fixed. To make a system that will not crumble, it requires indefinite self-improvement and the improvement of its surroundings.

Beautifully said.

Can be a gamedev though

Often people ask more questions than they even bother answering. I once heard conversations about the meaning of life, but each argument was self contradictory, and the counterarguments were no better, each didn't seem to get the point of each concept they referencing. The Meaning of a concept, of a thing, would only make sense if it was self referencial, self evident, as a hammer hit, a knife cuts, a bed to be Slept on, In the end Life, all the forms it takes regardless seem to always direct to a goal. The act of continuing. The meaning of life is to live, How to live? Many forms take many techniques, all in attempt to improve one's ability to continue, because the things that don't hold of improve one's ability, don't exist anymore.

Random Stranger I don’t think they are true, a lot of the clips of him are very heavily edited to make it seem like he is saying stuff, also his girlfriend takes pills for her depression which are anti-psychotics and are very rarely given out to patients only suffering from depression. I think there could be a small amount of truth in those videos but i think it’s being twisted a lot

@@quackqueen1750 yes it's brilliant sorry for talking to you, please get back to your day.

@dogman always wear a seatbelt

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand exurb1a. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of epistemology and existentialism, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also exurb1a's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Alber Camus's literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike exurb1a truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in exurb1a's existential catchphrase "Go Home," which itself is a cryptic reference to the Zeno of Citium's greatest work "Πολιτεία". I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as exurb1a's genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, i DO have a exurb1a turtle tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎

Roelofs was, until the end of 2016, an artist who regularly collaborated with other creative people. Following a collaboration with Exurb1a, a British youtuber, Roelofs was hospitalised in November 2016 for acute stress disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, depression and suicidal ideation. During her 7-month hospitalisation, Roelofs began speaking out against her former work partner who she stated used Reddit to smear her name. Roelofs said the RU-vidr had assaulted and raped her in October 2016, had started threatening her between November-December 2016, and subsequently "blackmailed" her to leave the hospital to talk to him while she was drugged with prescribed medication, and that he raped her while she was unable to fight him. One of the prescribed medications she had been taking was Xanax, a benzodiazepine and well-known date rape drug. In February 2020, daily newspaper Algemeen Dagblad confirmed it had taken Roelofs 6 visits to three different police stations between 2016 and 2017 before a criminal complaint was taken. When Roelofs was discharged from hospital, she gave up her career as an international photographer to focus on her recovery, as well as mental health and anti-rape activism
