Every day I watch a reactor explain a basic metaphor for example uh "And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking" and going through each word like "You running means symbolically you're going through your life... trying to catch up with the sun but it's sinking On Your Life. Like. The setting sun representing the close of your lifespan"

And then 1000s of comments going "Oh wow you got it" and also "I never caught that"

#misc #this is a neutral statement #like. if kids arent listening to their teachers about language comprehension #then at least the reactors breaking down videos line by line #might make a dent #but also like.#uh #when I break down symbolism i feel like im just piinting out dumb shit #also me putting sumbols in art work #it feels obvious and dumb but like #maybe i should jave more confidenxe #that it's actually novel and subtle and lyrically pretty
