Again I get what you're saying, but it's a visual medium. You expect him to put a barcode scanner up there or some shit? The video itself makes some of the same points you do. And yeah YouTube is full of clickait, but if you're gonna be on YouTube, do as the YouTubers do.

Edit: also, he usually does astronomy stuff. The nebula is just his normal background

I mean I get what you're saying but this seems super short sighted. There is good reason to not jump to quantum effects as an explanation for anything unknown. That said, dismissing evidence that suggests that the brain makes use of quantum effects because "quantum mysticism." It frankly seems far more likely that immensely complicated that's had billions of years to evolve, such as a brain, would make use of available phenomena even if it's not something we understand. Note that I'm not suggesting magicy magic quantum physics is secretly magic, simply that mechanically there's no reason why some parts of consciousness would not make use of quantum effects.

Hard to wear clothing that both keeps sun off and heat out.

Bad faith argument. The topic of discussion is reasonable in city trips, not cross country slogs. Op is frustrated his city banned public funding for trains, ergo his question is about getting around his city. Your statement, exposure to the elements, is made more eloquently elsewhere, due to things like rain and snow.

Fair and honest, except the titles. Thank you, tiny badass motherfucker. I accept.

What if I called you a badass tiny motherfucker?

That is absolutely NOT what progress means, you fucking dipshit.

prog·ress noun /ˈpräɡrəs/

forward or onward movement toward a destination.
"the darkness did not stop my progress"

Moving slightly slower on enshittofication than the other guys does not meet that definition.

Improvement, actual improvement, is what is required by progress.

I'm not asking for everything to instantly be better. I'm demanding that things stop slowly getting worse.
