Same, I discovered that picture on Reddit years ago and whenever I stumble upon it during my surfing of the web; I'm reminded that no matter the period of human history, humans would inevitably find some sort of joy in their lives where they can't help but smile and laugh. Joy and laughter are some of the most human emotions as it separates our lives from being bleak, meaningless and overall apathetic to instead hopeful and longing for the next smile/laugh.

14:52 I heard this story somewhere on the internet of a young person, who I think worked at some kind of retirement home, who was talking to a very elderly woman. The old woman asked the poster something like “do adults tell you about time before the internet, and how it’s dangerous? And how they didn’t have it back in their day?” The original poster, of course, responded yes. The old lady then responded with “that’s what my parents told me about electricity.” That may be my favourite example of these “illusions of time”. Me, writing this message on a computer that can fit in my pocket, could talk to someone who didn’t even have lightbulbs as a child.

@hanzflackshnack1158 Месяц назад

To be fair, electricity universally expanded productivity. Most of our population is spending more than half of their free time hopelessly addicted to a dopamine button. People are still playing cause and effect on why society's overall intelligence is declining but... clearly occupying half our mental energy with Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and RU-vid (a process that puts people in a dopamine deficit for the rest of the day which is directly tied to depleted motivation) is going to impact participation in challenging activities. "Electricity is the Devil" and "I am physically incapable of stopping myself from picking up my phone to check for notifications every 90 seconds"...

@RobinFlysHigh 23 дня назад

Very neat anecdote. I hate to be *that person*, but technically you could talk to the daughter of someone who didn't have a light bulb as a child

@matthewb5364 10 дней назад

This is an amazing comment and story. I find a lot of comfort when I fear the unknown future from just looking at my parents or grandparents. They’ve already seen so much change. Some people were alive to see both horse drawn carriages on the streets of New York City and the moon landing on TV. My grandfather was born before the Titanic sank, and Queen Elizabeth was born before industrially sliced bread was sold. I can speak to people who saw Elvis or Louis Armstrong, or who remember the Cold War fear or the Great Depression. It’s amazing who is connected to who in this way!

@matthewb5364 10 дней назад

@@RobinFlysHigh I am guessing the woman in this story didn't have them in her home for at least part of her childhood, even if they had been invented by then. Maybe she lived far from an electrified city, or their family couldn't afford the service, or, as the post seems to say, her parents were suspicious of electricity and didn't want it in their house.

I stumbled upon this video during a time in my life in which I feel like my life is passing right before me. The past 10 years feel so long ago but the size of it feels so little, this feeling of impending doom keeps coming back every night, my life is passing.. Realizations that I will never be a child or a teenager again, hell I'll never be in my 20's and soon I'll never be young again. Its all so weird and scary. Thank you for this video, it didnt quite ease my time paranoia but at least I've found some comfort that what I'm experiencing is.. real. The very nature of life, things choices situations discussions experiences, everything.

I've always been fascinated by the connection between our sense of smell and the triggering of memories. After my mother died ,I bought one of her favorite colognes just so smelling it would make me feel like she was there with me

@matthewlacey4198 Месяц назад

I've found that smell can give really really vivid memories, like walking past someone and being able to smell that they wear the same perfume as a girl you used to go out with years ago, or smelling a clinical, hospital smell years after a grandparent or family member was in hospital, it puts you right back in that moment, and you smell it and instantly go "that's the smell from this place and this time"

@paladin_bloodmoon1948 Месяц назад

I just realized, in the time travel segment of the video, if people in the past viewed their present as a continuation of their past, then that explains why they had a tendency to scrap things that we today would've tried to desperately preserve in a museum, so many old locomotives, tanks, and cars were never preserved other than by photograph, and I always wondered why that was, but now that I understand their worldview on the present, it makes sense now that actively preserving the past is as recent of a trend as it. thank you Michael, you open my eyes to so many things I had only wondered about in passing

@pafnutiytheartist 3 года назад

I am in a room. It is dark. I am tied to a chair and my hands are bound with rope. A small light flickers above me. I am hungry. When was the last time I ate? The small doorknob in the corner begins to twist. A door opens; my eyes flick up to meet him. It is none other than Michael Stevens, the host and owner Vsauce. I fill up with questions? Words clog my throat, thickening like honey, and as they smooth out and start to pour the words none can even come past my lips- Michael cuts me off. “I’ll be the one asking the questions.” He goes out of view, “where did he go?”, I wonder. There was a flash in front of me, revealing his face once more. He greeted me. “Hey Vsauce Michael here” my eyes wander and I become Starstruck, for right in front of me was Michael Stevens shirtless. He caressed my neckbeard slowly, he started rambling on. “Where are your fingers?” Sharpening his knife in a good ol’ pencil sharpener. He walks over to me, takes one look and says. “This is easier shirtless because dry cleaners ask questions about stains.” He starts tearing into my left thumb. Slowly chopping down, onto each finger. I was sweating so much that the aroma last nights Taco Bell was starting to fill the room. Unphased he says “Ya toes, hand ‘em over.” I stare into his eyes as he stares into mine. My eyes are filled with pleas for help, and his: lust. A lust which could not be satisfied by normal means. He demanded my toes again, but that were not satisfactory, for he wanted more. I had to get out, but I wanted to know more. My lust for knowledge grows ever greater with each passing second. Why was he doing this? Or rather why to me? I felt so helpless. I felt like I had been left alone in a sea or words, none of which I understand. Perhaps I had gotten lucky, being his choice, being chosen. I don’t know, maybe I’m just the crazy one. I stared where my toes once were. I guess he took them, my toes. I had handed them over, what else could he want? “I will now ask the question, What makes us ask questions?” He knew my question, for he had known it from the start.

When I first tried VRChat I felt a strange sensation. Unlike the Internet VR gives presence: the feeling being in some space, a virtual space. And when you realise you share the space with people that live in actual reality far far far away from you, like thousand miles, it blows your mind. At least it does to mine. It's like finally experience what singularity does really mean, when a distance does not matter. But the time is not yet broken.

One of the most fascinating things for me in the last decade has been the discovery of memories of FEELING. Do you ever remember not what happened or what things looked like or who said what, but how things FELT? I mean, of course you do. I'm assuming that you do too. But it blows my mind to become conscious of it. Because one of the things I realize is that you really can never step in the same river twice. Each time in my life, each era from months to years, to even days or weeks, feels completely different. And so in terms of memory what rocks my world the most is when I suddenly get triggered back into the feeling-vibe of what it was like to exist as me long ago. Not what happened. Not how things looked. But how they FELT. The whole vibe of that time of my life. I believe it's a completely unique concoction for every period and every time. And most crazily, for every person.

@sergeysvirsa3993 16 дней назад

@hieronymusbutts7349 8 месяцев назад

My sense of time is so fundamentally broken that this feels like a geometry lesson. Powerful hallucinogens can give you the impression of millennia in sequence, watching civilisations rise and fall. It's hard to keep track of what day or time it is - hard to remember ages, because I see people as a temporal spectrum constantly being re-expressed through a singular point, on a path that looks linear from the perspective of its own movement but is constantly forking out into various possibilities then collapsing into physical realities from an external view - more akin to a crystalline matrix than a straight line.

@hieronymusbutts7349 8 месяцев назад

This doesn't mean that because there are infinite possibilities that there is a timeline in which you live forever - infinite numbers between 0 and 1 does not allow for a 2. As you age, the number of possibilities first increases and then decreases, until all timelines end with your perceptive existence of them (i.e. you die and your body ceases to act as a function of measurement to create time as a comparison of physical states between iterations of possibility [quantum state] and reality [how the quantum state collapses into a particular physical state])

This explains why the first month of lockdown felt like it lasted 3 years but the subsequent 3 years lasted two weeks. Basically, March 2020 had active election drama, civil unrest at every turn, the beginnings of an economic downturn, _and_ no one had ever seen a global pandemic and its consequences. However, during the next few years, we had already seen normal life (even with the added politics and anger), so after such a cataclysmic shift, when our brains expected more novelty, and when it didn't get it, we just blasted through time like nothing new happened.

Yesterday, my mom and I were driving through the neighborhood in which I was raised, and she remarked about the state of the roads and how in the world they seemed so unmanaged. It occurred to me that when my parents moved into the house I grew up in, it was 1974...almost fifty years ago now. It occurred to me immediately afterward that when I and my friends were riding our bikes on those roads (seemingly all day, every day) during the '80s, the same amount of time prior to that would've been the 1930s...before either of my parents were even born, and thus not unlike the very-rundown streets I knew near my grandmother's house. And that is ULTRA weird to think about, for some reason.
