Anxiety anecdote:
This one took about two months to make. Lots of that time was faffing around with a Word document, not even sure what the point of the script was, but anyhow - today, very excited to be finally uploading and rid of the thing, there I was doing a bit of last minute polishing in the video editor and suddenly I notice I've deleted half the video in the timeline. Just gone. I reload the old save file but it's too late, I've written over it already. About a month of work gone in three seconds of mis-clicking. I'm not sure how far back in the day I made the mistake and did I mention that the file is so large now that the undo function locks the video editor up almost every time? There's only one option left: tentatively keep hitting undo and just pray this doesn't lock the editor up otherwise ALL GONE, and just pray the buffer remembers far back enough to restore the sequence I deleted otherwise ALL GONE. There I sat for thirty minutes hitting ctrl-z as gently as I could, sweat dripping from my furrowed brow, even the mice who live in the walls of my apartment coming out to watch and bite their fingernails or claws or whatever it is mice have, their cheese untouched, their traps empty.... Anyway everything was fine even if I almost soiled myself - the undo function worked and I briefly felt good about living again for the first time in ten years. I am an idiot. Please don't be an idiot like me - back stuff up, I beg ye.

"Why do I have a mind's eye, but not a mind's nose?" I definitely have a mind's nose, ear, skin, tongue, and other sensory organs. When people talk about Beethoven being able to compose his last symphony while having been deaf, it's because he trained his mind's ear to hear those sounds. It's just a matter of training your mind to imitate such things without the sensory input. The smell of a mind's nose is less clear than actual smelling, but that's the same as my mind's eye seeing an apple in less detail than my actual eye.

​@@AntonK-bd1yvwhile this may be true of alot of things, i find a little bit of a sense of wonder and satisfaction knowing you will have atleast a few unique thoughts because we live in a time that has never existed and will cease to exist very soon. Every minute is gone as soon as it happens and there are many more to go, and out of all the minutes that will ever be, we get our own little slice of it as its happening right now. I may have died in 10 years when someone may be reading this comment, or i won't have, or maybe youtube will be gone and this text will be alone with no one else to view it, and maybe no one will see it again as our solar system eventually enters a black hole or our sun explodes obliterating all trace of my existance forever, or maybe someone will see it thousands of years later somehow recovering this exact comment on this exact video, maybe they won't ever know what it says as english is a long since forgotten langauage. These thoughts go on forever, certainly not unique i hope, and yet one day someone thought of a big green man and called him shrek. There's always something new every single day of your life made up of all the same stuff there ever was and ever will be, and I'm happy knowing that all of it that will be mine is only mine and only ever will be mine even when im dead and gone i can say i existed as a totally unique thing, even if an exact copy happens of me in the far infinite future an infinite number of times, they never quite existed in the year 2005 based on this random calender someone thought up a short while ago. These moments truly are mine as i know them, i thought of hulk hogan punching barney the dinosaur and then turing around to beat me up only to give me a hand before shooting off into the sky with a beer in his hand. Maybe you conjured a similar scenario reading that just now, but it didn't have "me" in it, it had you or whoever you thought i looked like that's probably wrong, it probably had a specific beer, unbranded or branded however you thought of it, you probably imagined it happening somewhere, maybe a wrestling ring? Or one of the sets of the barney the dinosaur show? Maybe you don't know who the hell I'm talking about and came up with something totally different. Isn't that kind of cool? Anyway, I've been rambling so I'll just stop. Anyway i didn't stop even though i said i would, isn't that funny, or maybe it isn't funny and you are having no reaction at all, hell maybe you even think this is wierd, or boring and totally pointless, so I'll actually stop this time.

I'm a man that doesn't cry often normally. It's not something I'm proud of, it's just the way it is caused by the society's norms. But every time I watch your videos alone, the things you make me think just tingles a string in a far away corner in my brain, like some vulnerable part that wasn't meant to be disturbed was violently touched by the thoughts you gave me, and I burst out crying. The thoughts, doesn't hurt, but doesn't not hurt either. You touch my consciousness where I didn't know existed before. I don't know if I should thank you for making me feel this way, or say fuck you, but, I'm happy I discovered you a while back existential crisis turtle.

"activating the neurons of curiosity", now that is a good way to put it, after a good few decades on this planet, with just over a decade forced to learn whatever someone else decides was important these neurons of curiosity have indeed gone dormant, but every time I stumble across something like this, be it an entire video essay or even just a few sentences I overhear in a conversation I get a slight feeling of childlike curiosity, that there is still so much to do and learn and discover, a feeling that I almost forget with the everyday monotonous life and a boring 9 to 5. If only we would instill this sense of curiosity into the next generations instead of beating it out of them so they fit within the standardized tests parameters, I cannot even begin to imagine what humanity could be.

Yeah idk Kant definitely managed to do that. His writing is dense, but it's clear if you spend time with it. I for example like how The Critique of Pure Reason really just begins from definitions, and logical inference, and starts developing a thesis from that, step by step. There's no flowery pretentiousness or artistic flair or mysticism for mysticism's sake. He's just like: See my definitions! I'm gonna mess your head up now if you bare with me.

I don't cry much, but watching your videos always bring me to the brink (in a good way.). Life has been really overwhelming recently, and I was looking for some kind of existential escape, and you didn't fail to deliver. Thank you.

As a child I sometimes did this thing where I stood in front of a mirror and just stared into my own eyes, telling myself "That's me, that's my body" over and over again. After a few minutes I felt myself "rising above" my everyday reality, catching glimpses of something much bigger. The world we perceive suddenly felt so shallow. I would ask those questions then. Who am I, beyond this body? What actually is this universe? It was such a terrifying yet grand feeling.

Fun fact: while metaphysics does literally mean "after/beyond physics", it was only so named after Aristotle's treatise Metaphysics, a title that Aristotle himself never used, but which was applied to it by Medieval scholars because it literally came after Aristotle's Physics in lists of his works. Also, I think you probably know this, but yes, the set of all sets contains itself; it's the set of all non-self-contained sets that fucks everything up.

@@HowtheheckarehandleswitNot to split hairs, but the question was whether the set of all sets contains itself, not whether such a set is possible. If the universal set *could* exist, it would, by definition, contain itself; it's the Russell Set that, even if assumed to exist, would by definition both contain itself and not contain itself in the same sense and at the same time. The universal set gives rise to its own paradoxes, of course. One such paradox is that it would have to have a higher cardinality than its own power set, which I think is what you are referring to as Cantor's Paradox. Another problem is that, by allowing for self-contained sets, you open the door to the Russell Set and thus Russell's Paradox.

I'm 21 now and studying urban development, and sometimes just have the thought of: what will all this really matter anyway, living on a floating rock, that we don't even fully understand yet and probably never will, and I am supposed to plan the lives of thousands of people, if not millions (based on the belief that a crafted space and living milieu can influence a person's behaviour and life), only to make their short passage in this slice of the carnival we call life a little bit more interesting and comfortable, I guess... So that's why I'm studying urban development, I suppose... to matter? Anyway, I read your book, Geometry for Ocelots, and I cried at the end.

Everybody has gone through this thought pattern in one way or another at one point. For years it blew me away that nobody was talking about it, but the fact of the matter is that nobody talks about it because they've already made peace with it. In one way or another most people have accepted the fact that there is so much they don't, and will never, understand. People don't like to talk about it because it's a very circular conversation that always comes back to the same conclusion- it's all either for nothing or it's so complex that we'll never understand, and that can be quite depressing.

Though no one’s seen his face before, this man is a true modern philosopher. I myself ponder life almost everyday, but he asks questions I could never even think about. I almost wish I had his view on life: the ability to focus on the complexity and absurdness of it all. Keep it up my friend, and don’t change a thing; your videos will echo through history.

I suffer from insomnia and a dull demeanor. I have been told I am rather cold and insufferable in my dialog when face to face. I, like much of my fellow meat bags, am Aspergers, how blessed. What I really mean to say, this that you have managed to capture my minds thoughts into an articulate and well presented video. And I want to thank you for it. Honestly, I am very glad to know I am not the only one who delves into the why and how of is. If I had money to spare, this would be the video I would give a superthanks too. You have made me feel ever so slightly less alone.

I suffer from being thought of as a space cadet because this line of thought is going on in the background while I carry out my day, almost every waking moment. I have a pattern I recognize and everything has a place in the universe... is this the microcosm or the macrocosm, are we moving through space or is space moving through us? Aspergers, hooray. I'm the version of it that remains a daydreaming kid trying to tie my shoes while my subconscious insists eventually I'll understand it all. My sympathies.

Dude, I love your videos. I'm in high school right now, and without knowing it, I have been thinking about metaphysics this entire time. I recognize the people around me are just doing and being, same as I am. I realize. I think, but all for what? What do you think for? Nothing. It will all end, or will it? What is ending? Is it the curtains fading away to pitch black? Or is it something else? I'm never able to express my thoughts because of anxiety and such, but it surely does get depressing at times. What I am typing right now will probably get seen by no one, so why am I even typing it? For hope of others responding. For attention, as anyone would in a KZbin comment section. Now I want to think I am special, but I really am not. These thoughts will not make me special, nor will anything else from the past, present, or future. Many days, I wonder what happens after death, but I've easily come to the conclusion that it's worse than darkness, worse than anything else. There is no such thing as heaven or hell, sadly, just... nothing. If anyone is reading this, enjoy your time while it lasts because once it ends, there is nothing you can do to prevent the unthinkable, the unforgettable, the death.

Indeed my friend, you are not unique. But that is not a bad thing, you can relate to others your thoughts, just like you did now, and more often than not, they feel the same emotions as you, have the same thoughts as you, being so similar yet so unique is what makes us human :)

I had binge watched this video when it first came out, and I barely remembered any of it, but when I saw "pumpkin potion cat snake" i clearly remember that I watched the video. The video didn't make much of an impact the first time I watched it, because I devoured it like content instead of watching for meaning, but on this rewatch it was exactly what I needed to hear today. Even though I was the "same" person when I first watched the video, it hit differently on this rewatch, so is it really the same person watching this video?? There's a couple of your videos I rewatch constantly "Oh Hello You're alive", "Meaning is a j̶u̶m̶p̶e̶r̶ sweater you knit yourself.", "You will never do anything remarkable" to name a few. Each time I watch those videos they hit differently depending on what's going on in my life. Maybe I'm the same person that watches each time, or some of my old brain cells watch mixed in with some of my new brain cells. Either way this time I'll make sure to remember pumpkin potion cat snake.

I study architecture at the ETH in Zurich. Today I have an art exam lasting for 6 hours where we have to produce art and write texts about it. This is one of those strange moments in life where I feel like in a movie and that this video is made for me. Its the perfect summary of some of my favorite topics. (determinism, free will, meta physics, qualia etc) So thank you existential crisis turtle this was really inspiring.

Found you 3 days ago, watched a video, realised you've done everything I ever wanted to make on YT (content that carries wisdom (or well packed knowledge if you will) (which I totally lack), all sorts of artful expression (from music which i know nothing of to tempo, structure, pacing or easily said sense and beauty of the work, which I didn't even start experimenting with), humor (what even is it, how do you make it, I have no idea why, I just know I cannot stop laughing when I see your joke) and time and dedication (I don't think I have ever done anything requiring as much of these as you do every single f***ing masterpiece of a video)... You have done what I dreamt of and have done it perfectly, thank you. Now, knowing this path has been realised, I shall seek another in need of what I can give it. Best of journeys I wish you, the world and I need you, so good luck and much love 😃😇❤️

I don't often cry but after this video tears suddenly appeared. I don't know what I'm feeling but maybe it's because I have matured mentally lately or maybe it's the exhaustion or perhaps the many attempts to escape the reality of the war I live in. But it seems this video just touched something deep in my brain and for a moment it took me crashing back into reality. Thank you existential turtle 🐢
