Spinal Catastrophism: The Secret Story in Your Bones
On September 28th, 2021, while doing some research, I happened across a lengthy post on r/paleontology. It was an iceberg style meme, common for the time, exploring some of the stranger points of discussion in the history of paleontology. On the line between the fourth and fifth layers, far left, not yet midway through the depths of the post, a single phrase caught my attention. Spinal Catastrophism. $17.95, shipping, handling, and a standard business week later, I hit a brick wall of some of the densest intellectual work I’d ever come in contact with.
I took this as a challenge: I knew I needed to understand what this book was about, out of my own scholarly curiosity and pride as a stubbo...

Space Law is not an exact science. It’s rocket science! … and has sat unchanged since the cold war.

    I don't get why you say it's a relationship. Your points could be used to support the song being about changing carreer path, or moving to a different country, or any other pattern of "protagonist does something new -> enjoy then loses enjoyment -> returns to his original state", not that i agree with this either. IMO, the song is about someone who becomes suddenly depressed after realizing his cosmic insignificance. First Verse, L1-3: Singer is happy, his life is well. First Verse L4-6: Singer becomes depressed. Second Verse L1-3: Singer tries his best to live despite his sadness, but can't escape it. Second Verse L4-6: Singer decides to commit suicide. "Outermost clime", "what I leave in the way behind" The chorus constantly repeats how the world remains unchanged, uncaring to the emotions of humans. That's what set the singer into depression in the first place, realizing how insignificant we are. Hence why "There are some things we are never meant to know", because if you know just how meaningless your life is you won't want to live it anymore. In the last verse, the Singer is delirious from dying and for a brief moment becomes able to see the movement and nature of the universe. I guess that's a win against cosmic insignificance? yay?

    I'm having a little trouble seeing the romantic relationship angle to the song... but especially not this shit that it's about falling for someone who turns out to be a Crazy Bitch and ruins your life with socialism so you realize you need to Retvrn To Tradition and embrace conservative values. It's kinda baffling to me how someone could look at the lyrics to this beautiful song and glean such a juvenile meaning out of it :( I think you might have been going through some relationship stuff when you made this video and it tinged your views or something? because I am TRYING to make these lyrics connect to your interpretation and I am just not seeing it. Personally I thought this song was about God and the mysteries of life and being human. The joys and perils of seeking answers to the big questions. "All the hope and all the doubt." Examining your own place among the vast multitude of people and perspectives in the world, seeing how small you really are. Especially the chorus just exudes a look toward something much larger than us. "Who do we think we are? Everything plays a part." I could go into it line-by-line but my overall point is that the song seems to gesture to big ideas, the passage of time and the cycles of life, it seems quite grand and mythical or religious in concept - "everything will fall away to order from the disarray." You did seem to start to go into that a bit during the second half of the video, talking about emotional and ideological maturation, re-evaluating your existing biases and tendencies... but your point gets kneecapped immediately when you revert to your existing biases and present it as fact. You seem to think your specific culture's ideas of Tradition are actually what most people believe and are universally the best way to go about things. Blissfully ignorant of anyone else's traditions, universalizing your own selfish experience. Plus you just keep bringing it around to the "breaking up with a Leftist and embracing tradition and going back to your family" idea, the more I look back at the song the more I realize how weird it is that you just kind of made up that the song has any lyrics about that stuff. I think I can see the romantic relationship narrative if I squint, but even accepting that basic premise, it really seems like you filled in all the blanks with your own weird views about women and social politics. I might consider that the seemingly binary album title of "Good and evil" might actually be highlighting themes of NOT always thinking in such black-and-white concepts, resisting the urge to package things away into neat little boxes that fit your worldview. Not that my interpretation or any singular interpretation is right... This whole thing just seems myopic I really liked your recent Spinal Catastrophism video, and started going back through your other videos and... some of them have been alright, but this one has aged pretty poorly. Btw the line "natural, nuclear family" was really funny, good one

They're all important alchemical concepts mainly invented by the dwarves with the standard Liphaltu deck, which is widely used for playing cards in the modern day.

    If you were to document what happened on IFunny that's be great. From all the funny times where the app banded together, to the horrors of THE RAT VIDEO or if you're really old, The Dolphin (I will not explain further. All I will say is I regretted opening IFunny in school). It would be nice to see the history at least somewhere. But I also know that's a really hard task to pull off, especially since the app is really bullshit and makes it hard to really peer into the past. To be honest it may not be possible. The app is already having another Banocaust and it's not looking too good with how the new owners are trying to shake things up. I love the app because you get to see true(er) opinions from people, you get to watch the dogpiling of idea's that would typically be dominant and protected on other apps making it impossible to do anything about. You get to see a different side of humanity and realize that not everything is black and white. My favorite example is the racism stuff. Yeah, IFunny will bully the fuck out of anyone not white, but the moment a Black father is shown spending time with his kids, or something of the sort, you see the racist cold hearts melt.

    In my world there are 3 basal essences that make up all matter and energy, and they each are sentient with their own wants and needs. Darkness is cold and stagnant but needs to create and add to what exists; Light is hot and destructive and wants to send the world back into an ordered state, whether that be nothingness or a perfectly ordered state of matter and energy, bringing about entropy and tte heat death; Change wishes to sepparate the two, allowing the nature of each to form and shift throughout time, allowing one to create and the other to destroy in a cosmic cycle. From this are born 6 elements which exist in my world: Darkness births ahadow, the coldest element and equevelent to the Bose-Einstein condensate dtate of matter. A perfect fluid. Stone is the equivelent of solid Water is liquid Air is gas Fire is its own unique thing in my world (it's unscientific but I treat it scientifically as if it really was its own state of matter) Lightning is the light tearing through matter for an instant, burning hot before it destroys itself. That's how I do things. I'd love to hear your thoughts :3

      That’s actually very similar to my personal 9-element pet project. I use the four states of matter + absolute zero, but also represent the transitional phases between each state as their own elements. The structure is a sliding scale relating thermal energy to divine connection. You essentially get fire > electromagnetism > air > chemical reactivity > water > kinetic energy > earth/metal > dimensionality > ice/void. Each of those are reductive ways of stating their conceptual domains, but that’d be a whole video in itself.

      @@ElementFreakYT that's sick!! I'd love to hear more about it in a video sometime! The elements are weird in my world cause on one hand they're very clearly arbitrarily separated by the people that live in Theia, since one of the main aspects of the magic system is an invisible superfluid all Mortals secrete from their skin which possesses the essence of change. But on the other hand, I have the elemental cycle, which is very important cause it determines how the elements sort of rub off on nature if you will, leaving behind residue that can change how things work in weird ways. I also use a sort of platonic ideals idea of the elements, where each element has a "pure" or "elemental" form, but they're usually only present in their regular form (for example elemental fire appears purple spreads rapidly to any non-elemental substance). I also would highly recommend researching other states of matter like the previously mentioned Bose-Einstein condensate and the quark soup. Strange matter is also worth including in some way, and was my inspiration for how my elemental fire works. PBS Space Time has some amazing videos on the stuff.

I love playing cards and they're one of my favourite sort of things to collect and research but interestingly I've never come across the idea of adding additional suits (outside of the Tarot's line of trumps) to the game. If I had to come up with new suits and still try to keep things nice and balanced, I'd go for golden stars and wheels to get sort of a heavenly feel with images that also relate to and mirror each other within their colour. And since I very much like the four-point balance of the traditional suits, I might just go ahead and add two more - crowns and shields in green :)
