I was sleeping while listening to stories with my headphones on one night. Well I had a dream where I a heard a chain outside my back door. I look out the door to see a shadowy figure dragging a away a row boat from my porch and it was snowing in my dream. I could also still hear my stories in my dream, even after taking my headphones off in my dream. Anyway, I go outside to stop this shades from stealing my boat and he’s gone until I turn around to see him rushing me and that’s when I wake up and roll over. A little while later I get this feeling that’s a make presence standing by the hall entrance to the living room (I was sleeping on the couch) watching me sleep. I look up to see no one there, but in my minds eye before looking around, I saw someone. It was super weird.

I had something like story 24 happen to me before and it still bugs me. During my freshman year of high school I knocked a pen off my desk by accident. I heard it hit the floor and I immediately went to go pick it up and I never saw that pen again. There was no way it could’ve gone far so my only reasonable thought is that it vanished.

Story 32 - I used to worry about this until I thought of quantum immortality. Combine part of the concepts of that with determinism. EVERY action you can take you do take in some universe. You effectively have chosen your action, yet it was also predetermined (with a percentage of the realities matching the percent chance you would have selected it) Your one timeline is your own choice, but yet was always going to happen

Story 64 gave me the chills... I ALWAYS have a uneasy feeling as if I was being watched, I'm inside of my room (I have a two story house) and I feel watched, my door is locked, a d the only other possible way to be watched is through the window, nobody is there...

In relation to story 26, sometimes i have these dreams that feel different from my normal dreams for some reason. For 1 all of these dreams are in first person perspective as apposed to most of my dreams which are from a third person perspective. But the strangest part of these dreams are what they consist of. They are always mundane similar things to what my life is like normally. They are also very vivid. Then a few weeks later i will experience almost exactly the dream in real life. It’s how I knew my mom was planning on getting me a phone like a week before i got it. Maybe i am seeing an alternate version of myself where its simply a week or so ahead. Just something to think about.

Don't know if this appears in the video, since I'm only like 10% through it, but... Entropy is the measure of disorder or randomness in a given system. Our Universe started with a very low level of entropy and has been increasing ever since - this is what dictates the arrow of time. In the far future of 10 to the 100th power or more years after the Big Bang, entropy would reach it's maximum, and time itself would lose its meaning. However, in such an infinite, timeless cosmos of the far future, that only means that the remaining energy in it could be randomly arranged in any manner of ways. And since such a universe would be practically eternal, it would have an infinite number of opportunities to make stuff. One of the infinitessimally tiny possibilities is that a quantum exatation might create a whole new baby universe. That's of course very unlikely to happen, but with infinite cointosses, it's guaranteed to happen eventually. Sounds kinda nice and hopefully doesn't it ? - every end makes a new beginning and all that jazz. And indeed, for all we know, our Universe may itself have started this way inside an ageless parent. Yeah, well, that is possible, but, statistically speaking, living but disembodied human brains, although still extremely unlikely to spontaneously come into existence in a max-entropy universe, are far more likely to come into existence than whole universes with real us. So, it may be more likely that our real selves are far outnumbered by these disembodied brains floating through the vacuum of space, called Boltzmann's brains, after the scientist who invented the field of statistical mechanics. Furthermore, it's possible these Boltzmann's brains are thinking and dreaming, and that they may even think up and imagine whole universes. Which would mean that it's statistically more likely that our universe is a figment of the imagination of one of these dreaming horrors than an actually real entity.

Yeah, our reality could believably be a simulation or some other manner of falsehood generated by a higher consciousness. But, I mean, it doesn't change our perceptions or our nature. We still exist here and now, so might as well make the most of it, eh?

The reason we as humans fear things that look human but aren't human is due to the fact that our brains naturally want to make a distinction between that which is and is not human. Let's just say for example I'm a dimension-hopping entity that upon first glance appears to be human. But I do not act at all like a human should. Now this difference in behavior doesn't even have to be obvious or overt. It can be the most minute and subtle thing ever but on a subconscious level any regular human would be able to pick up on it but they wouldn't be actively aware of it. They would simply experience a feeling of unease or possibly even fear.

Interesting/weird fact about anesthesia. We know what it does, but we don't understand how it does it. For all we know, we are awake fully conscious of all that is going on, but we can't fully feel it and later forget the experience.

The idea where the universe could collapse due to expansion at any moment (that part doesnt bother me fuck the world xD) but ive thought what if its already happened 2-3 times the next time it happens 4th dimension? Its lovecraftian to try to think of how that would experience.

Story 24 was caused by the void. Had a similar aituation with teo lighters in a small room within 20 minutes. Easier to write off with smaller objects but I know. I know. I think George Carlin discuased a similar concept, but he called it "the pile". Missing objects mo longer exist in our reality. Theyre in a different apace, perhaps a demiplane inaccessible to us. Usually if I pray to the voud they show back up. Hasnt failed me yet.
