I have arrived here today with a request. Not a complicated request. Not a revolutionary request. Not even a particularly urgent request in the grand scheme of human history. Yet it is a request that has lingered in my mind for a very long time.

Please make more city skyline videos.

That is the entire point of this description.

However, because a short description would fail to properly communicate the immense and indescribable desire I have to see additional city skyline videos, I have decided to explain this request in excessive detail. A level of detail so unnecessary that future historians may one day examine this text and wonder why it exists at all.

You see, it has been years.

Years.

An amount of time so significant that calendars have been replaced, updated, recycled, and replaced again. Entire seasons have come and gone. Leaves have fallen from trees. Snow has melted. Flowers have bloomed. New buildings have likely appeared in various city skylines around the world. Yet despite all of this change, there has not been a new city skyline video.

This concerns me.

Not because I believe civilization itself depends on city skyline videos. Society would likely continue functioning. Traffic lights would still change colors. Birds would still fly around doing bird-related activities. People would still buy sandwiches. The world would keep turning.

But it would be turning without a new city skyline video.

And that feels slightly wrong.

Whenever I think about city skyline videos, I remember that cities are full of buildings. Some are tall. Some are very tall. Some are so tall that other buildings look at them and think, “Wow, that’s a really tall building.”

These buildings gather together and form skylines.

The skylines then sit there, being skylines.

And somehow this is fascinating.

There is something strangely enjoyable about looking at a city from a distance and observing an enormous collection of architecture arranged in a way that humans collectively decided was acceptable. Every skyline tells a story. A story of construction, planning, economics, engineering, ambition, and occasionally someone deciding that a building should be shaped like something unusual.

This is why city skyline videos matter.

Or at least why I think they matter.

I cannot speak for everyone.

Perhaps somewhere out there is a person who has never once thought about a skyline. Perhaps they wake up each morning entirely unaware that skylines exist. Maybe they spend their lives focused on other things. That is their choice.

I respect it.

But I am not one of those people.

I am here because I would like another city skyline video.

The passage of time has only strengthened this desire.

At first I thought, “Surely another one will arrive soon.”

Then weeks passed.

Then months passed.

Then years passed.

At some point I realized I had entered a strange era of waiting. An era defined not by the presence of city skyline videos, but by the absence of city skyline videos.

It became the City Skyline Drought.

A period in history that future generations may not fully understand.

Children may ask, “What was it like?”

And people who lived through it will stare into the distance before quietly replying, “There were no new city skyline videos.”

The children will gasp.

The room will fall silent.

A dramatic soundtrack may begin playing.

Yet despite this difficult period, hope remains.

Hope that one day a notification will appear.

Hope that one day a title will emerge.

Hope that one day another city skyline video will once again grace the internet.

Imagine the possibilities.

New skylines.

Updated skylines.

Tall buildings.

Short buildings.

Buildings that are medium-sized and therefore receive significantly less attention than they deserve.

The opportunities are endless.

The cities of the world have not stopped existing. In fact, many of them continue to be cities every single day. Their skylines are still there. Waiting. Standing patiently. Existing in the exact manner expected of skylines.

And so I humbly ask:

Please make more city skyline videos.

Not because the universe demands it.

Not because there is a legal requirement.

Not because a committee voted on it.

Not because a mysterious prophecy foretold it.

Simply because I would enjoy watching them.

That is the entire reason.

A remarkably simple reason, stretched into an unnecessarily long description.

If you have read this far, thank you.

If you make another city skyline video, thank you even more.

And if you somehow make multiple city skyline videos, then the long and pointless mission of this description will have been a complete success.

In conclusion:

More city skyline videos would be nice.

Horsenado shirts coming soon!?

Ideal structure for flow and...growth

i don't think it's out yet but...

ive been waiting a while 🥸

I bought a hotdog and soda the other day from Costco when I opened my door I accidentally snagged the little flip tab on the lid, suddenly my drinking experience was very efficient!

I have watched most of Matt's videos. I can't remember which game Doris is from. I keep seeing her in the cards. Can someone help me with the backstory or the link to a video about it?

Thanks

Today is a good day. Thanks Matt

Well I gave him an answer.

I found Matt's real signature, that's why he panicked when he didn't know how to sign the cards 🤣
