[roaringmouse]

Is it possible that Sisyphus represents each generation of our species, of all? The constant cycle of a lifetime to be repeated by the next, again and again until it ends.

[annoyinggull]

The second I started realising that nothing will matter, I decided to use that to my benefit. I’m usually pretty socially anxious, but when I think about how we’ll all die and be forgotten it helps me be more social.

[GabGabuu]

You just solved my search for meaning. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

[yakapa]

This is for me the best video i've ever seen on youtube. I don't know why but it's so rich in content even tho it treats 1 subject. maybe it's just my current mindset but it's really a good video. i'm amazed. I'm gonna see this video everynight before i go to sleep to remind me that what i do is absolutly useless, but brings me joy in doing so. actual life saver, no joke. thank you for this work of art.

[guebos]

You changed my outlook on life, thank you

[trixification]

this video reached to me at a perfect point, its crazy how this channel is so small and yet still reached me i am and will be hooked for life and only wish you the best

[anthony]

The way i got through nihilism was by using the same logic that says theres no point. Yes life is meaningless. But youre stuck here. So you can choose to make choices that make you depressed and just keep existing till its time for death or you can take actions that bring you fulfillment. Yes death is coming. But the point of life is to live. Leave death for when it comes.

If we give up then there it is guaranteed that the perspective we gave up under will remain the same.

[moistpotato]

I dunno why, but this single video is helping me think about my life more in depth, than therapy or any mindfulness has ever. And for that, I thank you. Thank you for giving me a new perspective to push forward.

[Jack_Walten]

i looped it so i could watch it *forever*

[DAMDO]

it's interesting to see how popular the story of Sisyphus has become ever since Everything Everywhere All At Once came out

[balazsmorocz]

You have single-handedly ascended 270K people's mindsets, allowing them the to seek meaning behind our endless struggle.

[tomwanders]

My answer to my t before watching the video would be, because it makes life more bearable.
I only found my self happier in life, when I was actively putting in the work.

[olivertaveras]

I love how everyone who succeeds at things end up at the same questions. In the end, it's multi dimensional beings and a trillion year long process.

[dan_ber]

you deserve more views and likes and subs

[_rusteze]

i was about to give up but then i watched this video and chose not to. thank you for putting this up on the internet!

[ThePaleAnt]

Just the video i needed to see. Thank you.

[Nuhuh-mzzx]

I think the real beauty in absurdism is the ability to live freely because in the end, nothing you do matters. Why stress out if we all end up dead?

[DubiousFIN]

what would this one be defined as:

Humans being a over engineered animal with the delusion of thinking that it thinks while still being governed by the same wants as every other animal
And that everyone that lived is In a spectrum of ignorance

[potcleanx]

What's ever you say life still meaningless but the fact that we exist it proves that something created us and there is no other way than this and i realized that this something is a god because the only one who doesn't need to be created is a god and then i founded Islam the only religion that worship one God and admire him and my life changed when i found it but this life we live in isn't real, the real life is after death this life we live know is like illusion
