Summary from the youtuber that made this video “The living philosophy”:

"For Nietzsche The Last Man stood as the opposite of the Ubermensch and the great danger of the “levelling” tendency of modernity. In this episode we are going to look at what Nietzsche meant by the Last Man and how his prophecy has come through. We look at The Last Man in 21st century society and what Nietzsche got right even while we should be cautious of fully embracing his ideal.

The video above features Aba and Preach as they review a tiktok by a trans man on his experience in being treated as constant possible threat due to now being perceived as a man. There’s some jokes here and there but some decent discussion of the differences in how men and women are perceived in everyday life.

"The British Library is one of the six legal deposit libraries for the UK — and the only one that doesn’t pick and choose, or have to ask for copies. That’s a lot of books to store, and the internet’s only making it worse. ■ The BL: https://bl.uk ■ UK Web Archive: https://www.webarchive.org.uk/

This video has a correction: it turns out the formal interview requirement for a reader pass has been dropped. However, you’ll still need to get a pass, and you’re not allowed to take books out of the reading rooms! You can see all corrections on the channel here: https://www.tomscott.com/corrections/

The video above dives into some of the challenges in developing and administering experimental drugs that can be used as birth control options for men as the main ones available to men are condoms and vasectomies which isn’t a lot. From the video summary on youtube:

“Condoms and vasectomies remain pretty much the extent of birth control options for people who produce sperm, and both have problems. So why is almost all hormonal birth control aimed at those with ovaries? There have been some successes targeting the biological feedback process for hormones that regulate new sperm production, but progress is slow.”

From the description of the video above:

"September 29th, 2023, will be etched in New York City’s history as the day the skies opened with an unparalleled ferocity. The deluge was so intense that JFK Airport recorded its highest 24-hour rainfall since 1948, with an astonishing 8 inches pouring down.

Brooklyn faced nature’s fury head-on, as three hours of ceaseless rain equaled an entire month’s average downpour. Witness water roaring into basements, stranded vehicles, and impassable roads that brought the Big Apple to a standstill.

This video dives deep into the heart of the devastation, spotlighting the worst affected regions like Brooklyn and Long Island. From shattered rainfall records to streets that became rivers, experience the magnitude of NYC’s epic flood crisis."

City Limits takes a multimedia look at how food waste is repurposed at the Department of Sanitation’s 33-acre composting facility in the Fresh Kills section of Staten Island. The site is part of New York City’s effort to operate “the nation’s largest composting program” and limit the climate impact of its waste sector, which accounts for 4 percent of citywide emissions.

The video above is an interview with a researcher named William Costello who’s part of a wider team of researchers taking an empirical approach to understanding incels and the problems they face. Whereas the usual pop-sci understanding of incels starts and stops with the misogyny in their communities. The empirical focus gives us better results as it reveals the mental status and situations incels themselves are dealing with and why modern upbringings are failing them.

You can find their research here and I highly recommend giving it it a look: http://www.psychstudies.co.uk/sisnet.php

The video above is a documentary highlighting the story of a man whose untreated mental health problem and a punitive justice system resulted in him getting life with no parole in prison after getting rejected and turned down from programs that would have helped him recover.
