All I remember for the Atari 2600 is Space Invaders. I loved that game lol
Facts in Motion vids about flood basalt volcanoes and extinction events:
I really wish he were still making videos.
Similarly, Nick Zentner’s lecture on the Flood Basalts of the Pacific Northwest. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched this exact lecture (although all of Zentner’s stuff is great):
Vsauce’s Which Way Is Down. Of all his videos, this is the one I keep going back to:
I’m deeply skeptical of any and all utopian ideas. They have this mysterious tendency to wander down paths to authoritarianism because we, as a species, are more defined by our ideas of who and what we are than by anything else in our existence.
When an idea becomes an ideal, people become willing to kill or die in attempts to bring that ideal to fruition, no matter how vain.
In fact, this is how I self-edit my own beliefs about the world and myself. “If the cards were all really on the table, would I be willing to proudly die in defense of this idea?” If the answer is yes, then I cling to that as an ideal that I strive toward.
All human lives matter equally.
It is important to lift up those who have less than I do.
Any small effort to alleviate the suffering of my fellow humans is meaningful.
There is always hope.
That is the utopia I choose to live in deliberately every day, and what I appreciate most is that it is resilient to the whims and chaos of this world that I can’t control.
