 all right guys most of you are possibly gonna miss this but just happened upon a little gator so hopefully he doesn't disappear before we get a nice little chance to say hi to him oh he didn't like that he did not like that I'm not gonna lie that scared me a little bit real question is where did he go just watching ASMR to get some recent video I thought he made a really good point that part of ASMR for me is nice to have someone talk to you share their feelings especially when it's really relatable and I think we're we're at a weird time in our history our evolution as a species we're so interconnected there's so many of us we're so densely packed populations but find a nice balance you know use technology for all its great innovations but knowledge this perks what it's used best for to communicate with other people but also take time to look look around you I ever known that it's not really that nice out today but the weather is kind of cool and it's not hot just yet and sometimes it's nice to just I don't know not worry about small things and just kind of enjoy the things that are around you right now it's not other people but it's nature so I'm gonna enjoy that straight up yep that was a huge a pretty big gator I'd say probably like a six at least a six foot gator he got mad when I tried to walk up to him he slashed he thrashed thrashed away made a big scene but um yeah I don't know this really isn't making much sense I just felt like ASMR to had a really cool cool video where he was just talking about the pitfalls and how nice very nice I would love watching birds flying you so um yeah he was just talking about how in trapping and grossing and addicting it can be you know especially I can relate to him with my YouTube videos and he gets it more than I do you know we enjoy your comments and likes and it's like everybody with social media we we kind of might be a little too reliant on our phones sometimes to give us the intimacy we we really crave from other real people it's kind of like a like a poor placeholder you know but it's nothing necessarily negative about it but this is a canal South Florida here it's pretty much what all of South Florida looks like once you get away from the beach just for anybody who doesn't know it's these pine trees I can point to it pine trees there shrubs bunch of lily pads it's really hot but uh hoping I could find another turtle or an alligator for you guys but I think I scared the only one off hey Nancy ace whisper girl thanks for dropping by ASMR and I think I keep saying it but I'm gonna do a video soon enough I hope you guys by the way like the Einstein video I really enjoyed it it was fun talking about it but I'd like to do more of a vlog style I kind of missed doing that it was that's kind of why I guess I like doing some of these live videos sometimes it's less topic centric and just more of a off the top off the cuff me talking about stuff I guess I guess you'd call that a vlog but um ASMR I honestly think we ASMR is like a lot of things just a placeholder awesome thanks I'm glad you liked it hey from Florida Switzerland that's that's someplace I'd like to visit I heard Einstein and Nietzsche actually actually a ton of people found a lot of solace up in the Swiss Alps but yeah ASMR I think it's really just a it's just a name for that feeling we get when we're extremely comfortable and at peace in our surroundings and not feeling threatened at all and I think it's very intimately connected with the closeness of another because ASMR is really I think just I think it it's fundamentally because we're social animals and we we need other social beings to find meaning in our lives Nate ASMR and sexuality yeah I mean I think you know there's probably a reason Sigmund Freud revolved most of his theories on psychology around sexuality because I mean it's a powerful thing you know I mean how many of us masturbate multiple times a week and how many of us have sex multiple times a week and or would like to you know I mean it's an important part of our lives and I think it goes back to a more fundamental and profound idea about what ASMR is it's you know every everything we do all our actions are in some way a way to relate to other people and that always comes back to me that quote from into the wild at the end of the movie when he's in that bus not to give away any spoilers but I think it's really super meaningful phrase when he said at least it strikes home with me when he said happiness is only real when shared and I think that's real I think happiness really is only a function of a relationship between two people or multiple people you know I mean when you do something you're proud of don't you want to go tell someone you care about and you want them to appreciate it and you want to share that experience and ASMR is is a placeholder for someone else relating to you and companionship and you know evolutionarily we must have you had to have you had to have known someone and felt very close and trusting of them and I mean essentially trusted them with your life if you take it far enough back you know in a tribal very primitive context just imagine we're you know I'll try to make more natural surrounding right just imagine this is a natural river I don't think it is but I didn't it's a nice little stream and any moment a 20 foot crop could come up and jump up at you and you know to be able to fall asleep next to somebody and have them put their teeth you know their face right up next to your ear and whisper into it pretty trustworthy because your head is the most valuable most vulnerable part of your body I guess so to let someone get that close to it and whisper real softly into your ear as you go to sleep and let your guard down when a jaguar or a croc could come up at any moment each you I think that that's the fundamental origins of ASMR is our capacity to trust and feel safe enough with someone else that we trust them to to not take advantage of our vulnerable state and allow us to drift off to sleep while they talk to us and you know relate to us and we have yeah that sense of companionship I guess I don't know this wasn't really a well thought out I'm just kind of thinking out loud really but all right guys I'm gonna get back to whatever I was doing and I hope you guys enjoyed this look there's a little turtle I hope you all have a great day and hope you enjoyed the Einstein video I got another one about Alexandria Egypt and ancient Egypt and the history of it showing you guys walking you through some places in history on Google Maps so that'll be fun and also the soft sounds like making just ASMR sounds tapping on stuff and whispering you guys to sleep about random stuff I hope you guys like it what do you guys say that makes sense wow I'm such a done sometimes I didn't realize you're actually from Switzerland so that's why your name is whispers bro Swiss your Swiss that's an awesome name I mean I liked it without knowing that but it's especially perfect now Nate what he's saying you know I hadn't considered people trusting content creators like that is that you relate to viewers yeah I consider me like it's a privilege and you guys are you're humbling me by allowing me to whisper or talk to you as you are in a very vulnerable state you know you're trying to be at ease and relaxed so yeah that's what I like to do and I look at that as a sign of respect from you guys because you you trust me and you trust that I'm not gonna make any sudden movements loud noises obnoxious rants and you know I mean just the fact that there's billions of other things you could do and you choose to watch me while you go to bed that's that's such an honor yeah so that's why I really appreciate all you guys and all your comments and it's yeah I think it's pretty cool that I can I can interact with you guys on a initially a one-way level but then fundamentally once I get to respond to your comments and hear feedback from you and you know get numerical quantifiable feedback in the form of likes and subscriptions views and all that stuff and I guess occasionally a little bit of money I don't really still know how that works but to me it's it's I don't know it's part of an adventure I guess the venture of self creation right something like that all right guys well be safe sleep well if it's that time night still daytime here and yeah look forward to some some more sounds and some more ancient videos take care guys
