I share my subjective thoughts and explore the questions regarding whether or not we have any control whatsoever over our own minds, bodies, lives, "futures" and "destinies", as well as whether or not everything about our lives and within the universe has already happened. These thoughts are often associated with discussions surrounding Free Will, Fatalism, Determinism, Block Universe, and other such schools of thought and theories, which we'll discuss in a "future" video, which apparently has already happened, but we just haven't caught up to it yet, or something.. 00:00:00 Real, Present, and In Control..

To listen while using other apps, switch the player to Picture-in-Picture (PiP) during playback — it keeps playing in a small floating window (the screen stays on).
To listen with the screen fully off, in-browser playback stops by YouTube's design. Open the video in the YouTube app to keep listening where background playback is supported (e.g. with YouTube Premium).
