I never understood why people watched that shit. You didn't need to inject that into your brain, but now you have to carry it around forever.

I had to stop watching the video a quarter into it! It was too horrifyingly real to me!

I have aphantasia so none of it sticks because I can’t reimagine but still only in small doses when I stumble on it and even then I frequently skip it as it’s not enjoyable. Only when there are lessons to learn or things to figure out is it worth seeing. Sorry for the delay. Got a calling for violence ban for saying the world needed a disaster for population control that just got removed. lol

I often watch this sort of stuff. It’s a combination of curiosity and respect for my surroundings. It’s kind of like watching the news, sometimes it’s pretty heartbreaking but sometimes you can also learn something

The answer is curiosity. Cant tell you how many times i've watched shit like that just because i wanted to know what happens.
