Oh hey Timmy. I'm writing a YA adventure novel and there are themes of mental illness. I've watched and rewatched your YT video on portraying mental illness in media. I don't have a question, but hopefully I've just filled in thirty seconds of time that leads to at least two minutes of reflection about how your work has influenced other people in a good way.

Since you’re in my hometown, I really recommend reading up on the history of the central station. It’s a great example of how political changes translate to the public architecture of a nation and you can see it in front of your eyes. Also, have you watched the three body problem Netflix show?

In time traveling stories, do you prefer a closed loop where everything that has happened will happen and every event falls perfectly into place or a story where small changes in the past has a butterfly effect that will change the present or the future or a multiverse thing where every decision you make creates a branch in the timeline?

To begin with, – Why do humans have cultures ? –Can animals have a culture? – Was there ever people that had the same culture at the beginning that then evolved into multiple different ones? - Do you use real life socio-anthropology in your videos? I was wondering because I find your videos really interesting in general

Same thing happened to me a few years ago! Train was delayed so we had 24 hours in Milan till the next one came. But they put us up in a hostel. We explored the beautiful architecture all day! The Cathedral especially is stunning. What do you think is the best way to experience such rich, beautiful architecture, especially churches, when the culture that built, used and worshiped in them, seems so distant now, and todays world seems so secular?

You should do a video on the most commercially successful stories with unique or unidentifiable structures, and how they managed to draw a broad audience/readership while breaking the mold of widely accepted story structure.

The Natural history museum in Milan has some truly unhinged taxidermy if you have the time it’s most entertaining.

Will you do more character psychology videos, like with Azula and Zuko? Also, will you make videos on the Hades video game?

I dont have my glasses on so at first read "mictlan" instead of "Milan" but I do feel that my eyes' mistake is still pretty accurate about how it feels to be abandoned by a train.

Currently polishing my book now. I am happy with the entirety of it but I thought maybe you or others could recommend something that I haven't thought of. I wanted to portray ptsd as accurate as I can. My story is basically about this soldier going back to her youth after dying to a betrayal and was utterly traumatized of the possibility of that she may have to relive all of it again that she basically ran off in the hopes to avoid it while also hoping to fulfill her wish and ending her regrets that she could not do during the war. I won't go deeper the effects this causes to the people surrounding her so we can remain on topic. I added flashbacks, survivors guilt, hallucinations, habits like keeping her back against the wall so no one can sneak attack her, constantly looking for signs of danger, nightmares, very resistant to any forms of "help" but quietly hoping they would not hate her for it. Is there anything else ptsd like reaction that would go well with this kind of character? Basically that would make sense why she would react very soldier like

Really enjoyed your recent video on food and world building. Did you consider including the practice of fasting into the video or possibly for a part 2?

Have you experienced some of doctor who extended media? Like audio dramas, novels and comics? Some of the best doctor who stories are from the extended media With your experience as writer do you see yourself applying for writing some doctor who stories, either novels or audios, or even on tv?

I just saw, i think it was, the dadvocate and her husband out traveling and i have to say he looks a lot like you, my guy. I really hear you speak about your personal life, apart from topics that are important to you. Even if it isn't you, may your travels be short and your memories be full😊
