On the Grape-kun story: They took the cut out down to try and get him to court real penguins, but he got so depressed they put it back up, and he went right back to trying to court the cut out. When Grape-kun died, they replaced the original cutout to one with him in it too.

Another thing worth noting is that humboldt penguins typically mate for life, however his mate had basically "divorced" him for another younger penguin in the same enclosure, and had lead to the other penguins in the enclosure to reject him, which is likely part of the reason he was drawn to the cut out.

If no one has said it yet, the Who Killed Captain Alex with that "Video Joker" is the original. There isn't really a version without that, basically what happened was pirates would put a track like that on stolen movies so they could legally call it transformative work and sell it internationally but, people were used to seeing movies that way in Uganda, so when the director and his neighbors made that movie they decided to include one themselves. It also starts immediately upon putting it in your DVD player because in his words, many people in his home town have lost their remotes so that makes watching the movies easier. Also for clarity, Fyre did offer that 12000 dollar ticket but there's nothing to indicate anyone bought one. The majority of people were there on the cheapest pass available for the full week. The media did clown on the guests by suggesting everyone there was ultra rich but most people involved were just like, normal middle class couples and families suckered in because the lowest price package was actually cheaper than going to Great Exuma and staying in a big hotel. Supposedly this was part of their downfall, because Fyre planned to pay for everything using ticket fees but they didn't actually charge enough to pull it off.

You could make an entire video on Bir Tawil (and many people have). Short version: Egypt and Sudan have a border dispute based on interpretations of documents that former colonial powers set out as their borders. If you look at what both countries claim as their territories, neither claim a strip of the Saharan Desert called Bir Tawil. To say it's not claimed isn't entirely accurate; it's just that both countries insist it belongs to the other. It doesn't mean the piece of land is "up for grabs" for anyone to be able to say it's theirs; nobody would recognize such a claim and to actually be a country would require some sort of international recognition. As a practical matter, the land is in the middle of nowhere and has no services or infrastructure that would allow anyone to well, live independently there, much less rule it as a sovereign nation. Hasn't stopped some from trying though most attempts were probably just jokes.

The water tank was found with the lid open, meaning Lisa could have opened it in a state of panic and disorientation and entered the water where she lost her life.

On Pool's Closed: it goes a bit deeper. The habbo pool was specifically closed because it was infected with aids and that's why people blocked it. When it gets weird is someone posted an image of the black guy in an afro and a suit (the habbo character) on a local swimming pool somewhere with the caption "pool's closed due to aids". Some woman went there with her children a week prior and thought that someone put up that poster because her children were black (not the case it was just a meme). So there was a big local news article on it, and so later someone photoshopped that woman in an afro with the caption "pool's open" which again attracted media attention. Also the raid wasn't because of the mods banning dark skinned characters. The raiders would constantly say nigger and stand in swastika formation, I can guarantee they weren't concerned with habbo's supposed racism.

From what I know the dream journals are more for better remembering your dreams - I'm not sure how much they actually improve your chances for lucid dreaming. But they certainly work well for remembering dreams, and even if you don't have lucid dreams it's pretty cool to be able to remember the crazy shit that can happen in dreams.

[@PinInCruiZ]

It's true but requires patience and even then not guaranteed to work But when it does, it's amazing

[@careyhendersonvocalstudios5429]

The hardest thing is staying calm enough when you realize you're dreaming to actually control things. I usually get so excited that I totally forget what to do to gain control and slip back into non-lucidity, or I just end up waking myself up accidentally lol In my experience the best method is using guided hypnosis videos designed for lucid dreaming. There are some really good ones on KZbin. Once you figure it out, you can go directly from being awake to "waking up" in a lucid dream, fully in control. No need for reality checks or any other stuff that requires "work". Just be prepared to potentially have to deal with sleep paralysis for a few moments when you regain consciousness, which can be very scary for the uninitiated.

[@ThePhantom4516]

I lucid dream most of the time, typically in the state when I'm waking up and go back to sleep again - it's interesting, mostly how I notice I'm dreaming is when a scene just shifts for no reason & something else starts happen, or someone suddenly is someone else.

Some additional info regarding some of these factoids: - Jim Davis himself has acknowledged the existence of "Garfield Minus Garfield" and has said that he likes it, considering it an interesting interpretation of his work. Jon's perceived loneliness was later addressed by finally pairing Jon and Liz the veterinarian after several years of a "will they, won't they" dynamic. - Tommy Wiseau has admitted as of recently that he was born in Poland, as people speculated he was Polish because in "The Room" there is a scene of Johnny and Mark's confrontation at Johnny's birthday party where he refers to Mark as a chicken and says, "cheep cheep cheep", which is the Polish interpretation of a chicken clucking. He has also said that he funded "The Room" using money he received by importing leather jackets from Korea. EDIT: An additional factoid about "The Room" is that the HD version of the film is lost media. Wiseau before filming began purchased two professional movie cameras, one in 35mm and one in full high-definition. This goes against standard filmmaking protocol as cameras are usually rented rather than bought as it's cheaper and keeps production cost low. During the movie's development, Wiseau requested that the film be filmed simultaneously on both cameras, but eventually decided to simply scrap the HD camera entirely, making the HD version of the film lost media, as Wiseau presumably threw away the existing footage along with the camera.

[@amelialonelyfart8848]

Additionall additional info: Wiseau was (and still is I thnk?) known for having a mildly successful tourist trap and fashion line in the 90s, so it's generally accepted that he used that to fund the film

Library of Babel was actually based on a short story of the same name where they found an infinite library with random combinations of letters in each book. It talks alot about how people reacted to it, with some throwing their lives into a religious quest to find some meaning out of the nonsense, while others decided to cleanse the library by destroying any test deemed indecipherable or nonsensical. Eventually humanity lost interest in the library, with most leaving, dying of old age, or even killing each other in disputes over what should be done with the library. Very interesting story that is worth the read, and I'm somewhat disappointed that it wasn't brought up in the iceberg.

27:04 An interesting detail here for anyone not versed in English history, especially during the Viking Age, is that "Northumbria" was a petty kingdom in the North East of England, its borders varying over the years but at its greatest extent was from Edinburgh (the capital of modern-day Scotland) to somewhere near York. Look it up on a map, that's pretty substantial. It was the site of the first of the viking invasions and its king would eventually become a puppet of the vikings before the areas surrounding York, firmly in the hands of the vikings, would go on to form their own "Yorvik" petty kingdom. There's a lot of interesting history up there that largely goes unheard of due to it being overshadowed by the vikings and later unification of England. Its something of a rabbit hole unto itself looking at its history and how it differs vastly from the southern kingdoms. I've not read the fan fics but to my knowledge Hogwarts is meant to be in Scotland so its possible that the writer got their pen-name from the historic region that the castle is in.

ItemLabel isnt as shallow as you describe it here. I wouldn't call their business model "viral marketing schemes" in the sense of relating to #youth but rather that their brand actually appeals to the internet. It's a project by a lady in Japan who makes a lot of weird, eclectic art. The theme song was made by her, and it showcases her off-beat taste. Their staff is equally into surrealist humor, and the main social media outreach guy (Jamz) is a PS2-era styled Vtuber/content creator who also creates his own assets. All of their branding, music, and in-jokes as well as the "universe" theyve created is very clearly brought up through genuine passion and fun, and they love to interact with their community. They don't try to appeal to anything but their own image.

He actually carried the stick that punctured him around with him everywhere after. Later his doctor told a big collage (some collage in Huston Texas I think ) and the collage didn’t believe him. If you go to the museum of that collage you could actually find a copy of his skull and a life size stick thing he got punctured with.

What it comes down to is this: a receptor on your skin (or elsewhere in the body) picks up signals, such as touch; the receptor gives rise to a neuron (a nerve cell - think of it as a long wire) that travels and eventually reaches your brain. In the part of your brain responsible for tactile sensation, that signal is interpreted as touch. So therefore you feel "Oh, my hand has touched something." Now, pretend that your hand had been cut off-- so the receptor is gone along with your hand. But the nerve cell (the wire) still has a large part of it in your body. That long wire still travels all the way up to the part of your brain responsible for tactile sensation. So now, pretend that there's an exposed "wire" (nerve cell) at the place where your hand had been cut off. And something activates that wire, the way that normally a receptor would - like maybe nearby molecules inside your severed limb had activated the wire. And then this triggers an impulse along the wire. This impulse will still travel all the way up to the part of your brain responsible for tactile sensation, and it will be interpreted as touch ("Oh, my hand has touched something" - even though the actual hand no longer exists - as though what gave rise to the signal was a receptor on the hand that was once there. I hope that I have explained this clearly.

Actually, if you watch ItemLable's videos, Peepy is a known criminal who just got out of jail!

Now." And the description for another plush, Thicc Brungus, having random capitalized letters spelling out "HELP ME". Even their normal stuff is pretty surreal, with one of the characters/plushes Dinkle trying to be a chiptune artist while suffering from loneliness and wanting approval, and a newer one, Donuts, is constantly crying, but not because they're sad, they just can't control it. So if this seems up your alley, check it out! They've made promotional music videos for basically all their items, too! (although most are sung in a thick accent)

For example, seeing an animal from a distance that you can’t see properly because it’s obscured by the environment. It’s always funny to hear someone say it

Masaokis is my favourite KZbinr. Watching him cooking next to the toilet whilst talking in depth about philosophy and life can't be beat. His videos are real, he is a true eccentric. I'm pretty sure he still owns the apartment in the videos but he lives somewhere else now. I hope he never stops making videos.

[@emperorstime2387]

these kind of videos always make me feel sorta uneasy and worried because there's just so much information ill never understand and know but these videos are really good

Makes us realize how much information is out there and how limited we truly are

About Tommy Wiseau: It is highely likely that he comes from Poland. The makers of the documentary Room Full of Spoons alleged that he was born in Poznan ( a major city in western Poland) as Tomasz Wieczorkiewicz (Tomasz is a Polish equivalent for Thomas and there are theories which suggest that "Wiseau" comes from how Americans would attempt to pronounce the Polish word "Wieczór", which appears in some Polish surnames such as the aforementioned Wieczorkiewicz). Tommy took these filmmakers to court for invasion of privacy, but ultimately lost and had to pay 700 thousand big ones to them and allow them to distribute the documentary. Additionally, Tommy's accent and mistakes which are common in Polish speakers, such as the omission of articles, are further hints of his Polish origin.

Bless you for cutting out all the fluff entries that everyone knows about and not covering them for the millionth time

I like how he starts the video by saying "I won't cover topics that everyone has already talked about" and then he starts talking about The Room.

The appeal of peepy isnt the name, it’s that they look weird. The company made Sucklet after a japanese artist’s original plushie and it looked weird so everyone wanted one, leading to the recreation. That’s probably why peepy was made, because people like funny looking stuffed animals.

My friend has Alice in Wonderland Syndrome! She always wanted to be a part of theater, but her disorder made it difficult to do it. This year she was in her very first play!! She played the mock turtle in Alice in Wonderland! She’s also in my theater class, I am very proud of her.

Lucid dreaming worked for me. I kept a journal and took melatonin and 5htp and kept the doces marked in my journal. My reality check was trying to make a ball of flame in my hand. I would wake up every morning and do it, while listening to a lecture or whenever I felt odd. I actually stopped because my sleep schedule started to become bad and one month in I started to up the dosage of 5htp. I would sleep super good but felt tired when I woke up. Definitely controlled my dreams and it was awesome.

[@daveshif2514]

yup i also practice lucid dreaming, it starts with keeping a dream journal and memory exercises. unfortunately it does have side effects. personally i never have sleep paralysis but this is the number one thing i warn people about if they want to try this, it can apparently be very nasty for some people (i did used to have this when i was very young, which is prob what spawned my eventual interest in lucid dreaming, ofc i was too young then to know what sleep paralysis was, and i think many children have it normally). i also fear i also impacted my own brain in a minor way with sleep deprivation so i would NOT suggest depriving yourself of sleep.

[@seva7500]

That doesn’t sound enjoyable to me

[@everythingpony]

Bruh what arg is this from?

[@Theblecquetzal]

Would this classify as lucid dreaming? So I fall flat with my ear pieces in my ears to enjoy a mutahar video. I fall asleep and the dreams starts with me waking up and starting to do my homework of sorts with my ear pieces still on. However when I try to pull those out, they wouldn't at all and after doing so for some time realize that I was in a dream and my mom wakes me and sits besides me. I try to get the pieces out but they wouldn't at all as my mom asked me what was I doing. This repeated twice before I actually woke up.

[@nexviro8987]

@@Theblecquetzal that's more of a vivid dream, vivid dreaming is one step below lucid dreaming. In a vivid dream u remember it clearly and realize you are in a dream. Lucid dreaming is that but being able to control your dream.

Hi, i have disassociative identity disorder and i wanna say thank you for treating it with respect! a lot of people don't, and it's so refreshing seeing someone who does :)

[@Ishartedbro]

Would you mind if I ask what *is* a disassociative identity disorder? Heh..😅

[@angrygoat2937]

@@Ishartedbro it’s pretty much a disorder that is caused by excessive trauma during childhood which causes the personality to split into multiple such as protector, nurturer, etc. usually a person with DID doesn’t know they have DID ( your brain doesn’t want you to know) but people generally find out anyway. Each personality is it’s own person and it’s good to respect them as such. PSA: People with DID aren’t scary, treat them with the same respect you would treat anyone.
