"I'm fine with this."

ITIIITIATIIHYLIHYL
acrimonious epistle in reverse.
time finite impact progressive digression from rhythm through progression causalitys
treeline fisheye lens framed flash in holden cold. device and circumstance and two rocks colliding seemingly none by happenstance.

"If there's no end
And we are infinite
Still, I hope you live"

This video always makes me SO UNEASY. Like, the whole time, I have the feeling of just "Oh, oh shit... What? Oh shit..." Like I'm on the verge of learning something terrible and world-rending, that moment where your stomach drops out right before the bad news lands, but on a cosmic, infinite scale.

It rules, but I've watched it twice now, months apart, and I don't know that I have it in me to watch it again.

I'm sure she had a good reason. That guy seemed very annoying.

I watched it twice and have a similar take.
it's really a fine piece of work and a very interesting video.
I really love that line about if humans knew there was an afterlife that the person would want them to still live.
I cannot quite encapsulate that but it is quite human

thanks for this, I love these short videos
