much more syfi pls and thank u mr nightmind sir
You should probably pin this
Hold up! You said, " I understand why this group, would want a lower follower count?" Yet, you've openly decided to send ALL 600,000+ of us, _over_ to them? 😂😂😂 You _are_ a confusing man, my good Sir.... and I like it! 👍😁
EDIT: Pause the video @11:34 & than, rotate the screen to the right once... what do you see? Do you see the man with glowing red eyes? This stuff happens several different times & its creepy cool!
The Monument Mythos!!! Lol I'm just gonna keep bringing it up until you cover it already.
Also… while you’re on Shudder, watch Dragula if you like reality TV shows. It’s so, so, so, so, SO good- it’s a drag reality show with the themes of horror, glamour, and filth.
When someone constantly repeats "Do not fear us'", "We are benevolent" is like a scammer saying "trust me" or "listen to me". It's a tell they should not be trusted.
or its a tell theyre a biblical angel
We are benevolent. Your trust is necessary in implementing our agenda.
I love how they never even try to justify or prove it in any way. They're probably so busy with whatever shady shit they got going on that they just can't really be bothered.
THE KAIROS ALLIANCE OFFICIAL IS A AI! (ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE)
@@caoilfhionndunbar Says a lot about biblical angels tbh
I laughed a little too hard at “before the inbreeding got really really really bad.”
I laughed so hard I shot tea out my nose
I woke my man up from a dead sleep with the dumbest laugh that has ever left me. 😂 I died
I never thought about the idea of Time Traveling corporations using an entire time period as something like a “vacation getaway”
But then I remembered that I watched Doctor Who.
"That whole civilization thing? Let the Sumerians sort it out, you're here to relax."
Yes. That. I want that.
Same Brudah
Love the way it turned from mystical analogies about controlling sectors of space/time . . . To a temporal Sandals advert.
@@davidstuckey9289 it could also be referring to the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia, maybe in the ARG the ancient civilisation, Sumer (or Mesopotamia in general) is still around and haven’t been colonised. I mean they did reference Aten and Merikare so I’m sure it wouldn’t be too far of a stretch
Note: It has been brought to my attention that some of the pieces in the video are Mesopotamian, not Egyptian. I apologize for the error; I'm old by your standards, but a teenager by demonic standards. I wasn't around back then to influence those cultures, so I didn't recognize the difference. ::3
Which cultures did you influence then? Just so I know which ones are cool.
I like the touch of two sets of eyes on the emote. But fair enough, mate, no one is perfect
@@lordtoademort8124 This one! ::D
@@NightMind I can't argue with that. I certainly feel influenced by you in my approach towards the unknown and the unfiction.
Bad kitty
For that iron means death quote, it might be important to note that the process of a supernova or a star dying is started when hydrogen makes helium etc etc until iron is created. The instant iron is made in the core of a star, that star dies really quickly.
Edit: there could also be a connection between red giants and the red sky mentioned.
I was thinking the same thing. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the list of elements is one of the fusion paths for a main sequence star.
I was thinking it could be an oxidation thing, as rust on iron destroys it. There's a reason antioxidants are linked to combating aging
@@TheMohawkNinja the path is consistant with star fusion evolution... but not just 4 supernova... also for our sun... wich will become a RED giant...
Yeah, pretty much. Once enough iron starts forming in the heart of a star, fusion starts to break down. The outward pressure of fusion fails to counteract the collective pressure of a star, causing it to collapse further, until a chain reaction casts off the star's outer layers in a supernova. At least I think that's how it works. I haven't thought about stellar fusion in quite some time.
@@GmodPlusWoW Indeed. The iron is too dense for the energy created by fusion to push the star out. I believe red giants occur when the inner layers of a star start collapsing, and it then pushes the outer layers away. The 'bald man in a grey suit' could be representative of the inner core of the star, with the umbrella being a representation of the sun turning into a red giant. Maybe, in creating time travel, the Kairos Alliance caused (hopefully indirectly) the accelerated death of the sun?
One of the bigger take aways i get from this is that if you have to keep insisting that your organization is benevolent, it really isn't.
I thought it was more reassuring. If they don’t tell me that they’re benevolent, how would I know? And the repetition helps with retention. I will know always know that Kairos is benevolent.
This ARG is using actual affective psychology in the way their posts are made. It's a modern technique called EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Rapidization). It's meant to simulate eye movement during REM sleep and it used to help process information.
It can be accomplished through multiple means, but the original method was showing someone images that made them shift their focus from one side to another in a gradually quickening manner. Other methods are physical vibrations or touches on opposite sides of the body and stereo auditory stimuli.
I can hear a soft repetitive thudding underneath all of the audio and I'm willing to bet that it's a hard panned left and right alternating thud. I don't have headphones on me so I can't check the stereo nature as of now. But even the gradually increasing thudding without a stereoscopic effect could be effective in EMDR.
So this channel, in the way they are presenting their information, are actually imprinting the knowledge in your brain so it processes as you're hearing the information. Can be used to make people more suggestive. Really interesting stuff.
Always love your videos and this was no exception. Keep it up!
i think you’re right about the background noises. i don’t have headphones on hand either but i can feel the vibration made by the sound moving side to side
This is fascinating, and I love that comments allow input on elements like this. Thank you!
Except the jury is still out on determining if the touching/eye movements yield any better results, or if it's the fact EMDR also utilizes Prolonged Exposure Therapy. More research is needed to differentiate the two.
At least according to Psychiatrist I rotated with and the PsyD who first treated my PTSD. I'm no Psychiatrist/Psychologist and a 6 week med school rotation can hardly be considered adequate experience in the field.
i am wearing headphones and did hear the same things! i haven't done EMDR just yet but am interested in processing trauma with it.
@@NightMind EMDR is used to treat severe PTSD. I've been undergoing the therapy for a few years, so this ARG is particularly disturbing to me.
When Robert was saying "hydrogen begets helium....iron begets death" I remembered the life cycle of a star. It fuses hydrogen to helium. Helium to carbon. Carbon to iron. The star becomes unstable at that point and dies.
So that was pretty interesting to hear that, especially considering the kind of people they're seeking
A mysterious man in a suit approaches you and your next memory is of you standing at a train station?
Half-Life 3 confirmed.
G o r d o n f r e e m a n i n t h e f l e s h
the pieces of art shown starting at 11:53 are Mesopotamian, not Egyptian. The pieces shown at 30:25 are also Mesopotamian.
Exactly what I was thinking, maybe the ancient Sumerians of Mesopotamia, in the ARG, Sumer (or Mesopotamia in general) is still around and haven’t been (or wasn’t) colonised. I mean they did reference Aten and Merikare so I’m sure it wouldn’t be too far of a stretch
An ARG using actual studied psychological techniques to imprint information on your brain with repetitive patterns and sound engineering. pretty interesting.
The Cure. Robert Smith is the lead singer of The Cure, One of the original Goth bands. The poetic lyrics were from early Cure song “A Forest“
The second, I don’t know, sounds like a combination of lyrics from a Pyrogenic‘s song and Flesh for Lulu.
A whole mention of constellations like Orion, the bull which would be Taurus ♉️
There is mention of Schrodinger's Cat , and, interestingly, the lyrics “I’m alive-I’m dead“ come from Cure song, The Stranger.”
And he often mentions cats in his lyrics. Unfortunately, there are 10,000 people with that name. This whole series is a deconstruction of the smell of anal sex.
It's interesting: The last part talking about the two wheels is synonymous with Kairos and Kronos' Journey. Kronos was the one who fell behind, and wasn't mentioned again, while Kairos went ahead and discovered quantum state.
Given that it's about time travel, it's very possible there are effects preceding causes, so Kairos might be trying to convince humanity to move forward and discover the means to travel through time, while simultaneously conducting temporal maneuvers with humanity. Since the future, the present, and the past are all the same once that is achieved, and Kairos has already achieved this, that's likely to be the case.
I thought the same, although the wheels also reminded me of the shape of the red umbrella. I can see this maybe being a bit of a propaganda piece against the man in the gray suit who I'm starting to suspect is a being that is trying to stop time travelers
@@gwencatz2483 Maybe the man with the red umbrella is Kronos.
Kairos alliance saying crap
Night mind: what? You didn’t get that? *thats because it makes no fucking seeense*
Something that is interesting is that the solar system picture appears to be showing Mars instead of Earth as the point of focus. The object has two moons and is in the forth orbit of the system. Also, the size of the temporal zone is about 100,000 AU in radius, which is about 1 and a half light years in radius or 3 light years across.
Fair point
Also, some theories about the collapse of any possible Martian ecosystem have involved the prevalence of iron binding up available oxygen into rocks and removing it from the atmosphere. ( No longer sound theories, but they were active at one stage)
Fun fact: Stars that are going supernova eventually run out of hydrogen, so they fuse hydrogen into helium, then into progressively heavier elements until it makes iron, which it cannot break down anymore which then make the star go explodey.
Edit: I'm bad at typing, sorry lol
That was a trip lol Ty
"Stars are know"
Isn't that because iron is the most stable element? Because I've heard heavier elements for towards iron and obviously the lighter ones as well...
Though I can't remember in what situation heavier elements try to get to iron I just remembered that fact as well as yours...
Maybe it's during fission?
If I'm wrong and it's just that elements in a star and other particular situations head towards iron, by all means correct me, or if I'm right that the heavier elements go to iron, please tell me through what method
What does the first sentence mean?
@@JaykPuten The pressure inside stars isn't great enough to fuse iron into heavier elements unless exceptional circumstances occur. Generally this happens during the stellar collapse directly before a sufficiently THICC stellar body goes nova.
As someone with photosensitive epilepsy, I just wanted to thank you for the effort you take to give warnings about flashing lights. I'm usually able to look away in time to miss the brunt of the effects, but having a solid warning definitely helps me prepare for it!
Great video, as always! Keep doing what you do; these videos are always amazing!
ARG's like this one make me feel like there should be more SCI-FI ARGS. Because of it being based in science, it will be interesting to see people morph history and governments with science (Like the Monument Mythos. Plus it just ended). But as always, Great Video Nick!
wait MM is over?
@@TheBroGamer14082 Season 2 ended. But yeah it's implied that the dean verse didn't survive. You can see it in the latest video.
@@gentlemangamerec7025 which one was it was it the one where those soldiers fused into one being to kill rockefeller?
I don’t give q füçk what you think boy
Agreed! Sci-Fi ARGs are my favorite
Iron is the last element synthesized in the heart of stars, by the way, before they burn out. Everything heavier is synthesized in supernovae. Iron means death for stars.
Yes, it's the element either most "heavy" elements decay into, or that elements in stars build up into, and become stable. The end point of natural atomic transmutation.
We have iron in our bodies, we are the death of stars ✨
I don't have a good source on thos, but I've also heard iron was a repellent of magic in maybe celtic or druidic myth? Not sure.
Gotta say, as someone who lives in PA and had a grandmother who lived in Hershey through the 70s and 80s? Plus has bald friends with red umbrellas? That intro freaked me out.
Edit: Dauphin County PA has a few major cities. Hershey and Harrisburg stand out.
Three Mile Island
@@zen_of_chloe Yes. But most people don't exactly have a lot of family members that live there. Hershey and Harrisburg have a sense population.
lok this!! i live really close also and got so weirded out especially since PA isnt something usally talked about lol
I have family in Harrisburg, PA which is Dauphin County. I believe the time frame that they are talking about was during the 3 mile island emergency with the nuclear power plant there. They had to evacuate the area and some radiation leaked out. I wonder if the other regions mentioned are related to nuclear energy as well.
"Do not fear us. We are benevolent."
Sounds like something evil aliens that want to micro manage earth's timeline would say
And what you just said is exactly what the opposition of benevolent beings would say 😄
Of course, if I agreed with you, you'd accuse me of trying to oppose your argument.
Let's not go down a rabbit hole of inverted intent here 😄
Or it's an AI who doesn't understand human nuance. But in this context, it's creepy and shady af.
I had a migraine and was blessed with a new Night Mind video. love the fact that his voice helps my migraines
I hope it goes away entirely
Hey, same!
The rain, too. He has a very soothing aesthetic despite the content.
I never even thought to try his videos during a migraine, I’ll have to next time I get one!
I listen to his playlists when I'm in pain and sleepless. Cool to listen to horror as a soporific! Night Mind rules all.
The part about the cat being dead, and being alive, it gave me chills. I perceived it as something different. Given that time travel is the obvious theme, the AI saying that the cat is both dead, and alive, means that it's not "written" in destiny for the cat to either be dead or alive. What I mean is it's something that changes, something variable, or in other words, not constant, which is a word they use repeatedly. I believe those that achieve the state of constant have managed to remain forever and whenever. They exist, at all times. I also felt it interesting because it opens up the possibility of rewriting history, which obviously has always been possible, but in this scenario it seems reality as we know it could be rewritten itself.
Well, that's a new interpretation of Schrodinger right there.
The wheel thing is based on a physics misunderstanding.
Where upon having reached enough acceleration to exceed the speed of light you will start moving backwards in time according to a flawed understanding of special relativity.
It's not flawed -- the math checks out that conventional travel at superluminal speed would also reverse time.
It's just not possible because through conventional space the speed of light is asymptotic -- time would stop before it went backward, and you can't advance through stopped time. Also mass would be infinite (so only massless particles could do it) and length would collapse to nothing.
So you would have no mass, experience no time, and see the entire universe as a single point -- i.e. you would be a photon.
@@heywoodjablome9114 I'm not saying the physics in itself is wrong, what I'm saying is that there is a misunderstanding in that you could theoretically dilate your timeframe by speeding to relativistic speeds, but to achieve travel into the past, what you'd need is an Einstein-Rosen bridge.
So are you telling me that one episode of startreck tng when they accidentally went back in time to the 1950s by passing a star (I don't entirely remember what it was) is impossible?? Blasphemy!
"The road to Hell is paved with the worst words ever uttered by the old, the weak, and the foolish: "Remember how things used to be."" -Robert Smith
I don't know for sure, but I have a gut hunch this is something the Umbrella Man seeks....
it’s a shame that there’s good creative stuff on tiktok because i absolutely refused to have my brain microwaved by the platform
Nah, don't _need_ TikTok to microwave your brain. Personally, I've been doing _that_ perfectly fine using only TH-cam. "Welcome, to the Internet, they said. It'll be fun they said. And here I've been _utterly_ useless, since 1995.😬 Gawd dang that ain't good, fck I'm old, eh?!🤣🤣🤣

i wasn't into it at first. i'm 28 and thought it was mostly kids dancing and whatnot, so i never checked it out. but you can change your preferences to filter videos you're actually interested in and it's sooo much more than dances and lipsyncs haha. i'm super into the DIY and makeup/special fx and other art related tiktoks. and with my adhd, a 30 or something second video is perfect.
I have been microwaved by the platform and all I can say about it is that it’s actually pretty nice! I like to call it “The worlds best brain rot since acid”
I promise you, tiktok isnt as bad as people make it. Facebook even propgandized this to make people fear tiktok 💀
"If a lion could talk, you couldn't understand him"
A subtle warning against Maahes for some reason?
More likely a reference to an old philosophy argument from Wittgenstein; if a lion could articulate words and understood English or any other language, no human could understand it because all it's references would be based on the life experience of a lion, and we would have no common ground on which to relate.
Often thrown up when talking about alien life forms, it is valid up to a point in that case; in the sense of alien intellects, they are more likely to have something in common, such as mathematics or chemistry with humans and thus some communication would be possible.
What *might* be being suggested here is that "the yellow door" and "the tall bald man" might be something that comes from beyond our frame of reference, and is not just unknowable but possibly even damaging.
@@davidstuckey9289 Makes sense, I'm not much into philosophy so I never heard that before, I'm a bit more knowledgeable on the kemetic/Egyptian pantheon, so the idea of it being a warning about Maahes jumped out at me, and seemed a bit malevolent.
Maahes is supposed to be a god of protection, why would you warn people about him, unless you wanted to harm them?
this is SUCH a nitpick, but the "wolf" you mentioned at around 11:46 is a coyote, actually! You can tell by the large, pointed ears, smaller, sloped muzzle with that thins at the end slightly, and less fur. Along with the signature red nose and gray base! I'd guess either a San Pedro Martir coyote, a mountain coyote with its summer pelt, or a California Valley coyote! It's kind of hard to tell with the fence and strange lighting, though.
Writing this as im watching the video:) Just had to ramble!
actually, could also be a northwest coast coyote with a summer coat...hm
might be a bit hybridized too !
I didn't know I needed precise coyote analysis but I'm here for it
Lol, this bothered me too 😅
I'll bet that the "wolf" being a coyote is going to matter later down the line. Something about specifically a coyote being included feels like it's going to be relevant.
@@lalas181 Absolutely brilliant point. Also, nice pfp
The weird symbols that look like arrows that pop up around the "egyptian" (mesopotamian) art pieces are of the cuneiform writing system ! Cuneiform is the earliest known form of a human writing system and was created by the Sumerians around 3200 BC. It was brought about as a way to document and keep track of things such as transactions from trade. It was written by dabbing a reed into clay tablets to make the arrow-like impressions. If I remember correctly, the system has never been deciphered.
- college art history seems to have made it into my long-term memory
edit: extra details i remembered
I would humbly disagree that cuneiform has not been deciphered. This specific form of cuneiform is eariy babylonian. The words are (from left to right at 30:21 ): king, lord, head, sun, Nineveh, man. (Based on the table in the 1920 book "A history of writing" by William Albert Mason - pg. 256)
@@DerKork Oh shit ! I was not aware of that at all ! Thats so cool, thank you for sharing/correcting me ~!
@@kittimer Don't worry about it. I'm just glad to be able to help out.
@@DerKork yeah lol i was confused when they said they haven't been deciphered because i remember doing a project where we carved cuneiform symbols into a clay tablet in 6th grade and we had a little chart to use with meanings
29:24 Interesting how "the tall bald man in the grey suit" muddles down to "the tall grey man", which made me think of the greys, one of the most commonly reported alien types, and would tie in with the whole ufos are time-travellers thing.
OOOOHHHH
At 21:41 idk if it MEANS anything, but those are atomic orbitals. Specially depicting an element from group 4 of the periodic table as indicated by its 4 valence electrons. This group is known as the crystallogens and is defined by silicone, the most naturally abundant element on earth. This is also the group that contains lead
The space object at 32:13 is Oumuamua, believed to be the first interstellar asteroid ever detected.
It has a weird shape which, along with its origin from beyond our solar system, still intrigues astronomers to this day.
Also, about the last video, the question about the understanding of time might be more of a relativistic than a philosophical point of view, since if one could observe time from a 4th dimension, would see it in its entirety, separate from past, present or future. Kairos in this context might be an elevated perception of time, not necessarily through human interaction but coming from a higher point of view.
The yellow door could be the threshold to achieving said point of view, but human minds currently aren't ready for it yet. Experiencing all of time at once would be pretty overwhelming.
Plus, the man with the red umbrella could be one of these higher dimensional beings, able to freely move through time and not very happy that an AI was able to achieve a similar state of existence.
That part where the atoms create bigger atoms is actually a star's life. It starts by turning hydrogen atoms into helium (through thermonuclear fusion) then the atoms get bigger and bigger until they reach iron. Iron cannot be used as fuel in a star so it slowly burns out and turns into an iron ball... dying.
Once a star is at the level of fusing iron in its core they usually die in a fairly spectacular way, supernova, neutron star, black hole, stuff like that.
@@falconJB my astronomy knowledge is made out of the discovery channel stuff I watched when i was 16 so don't expect much from me. I just recognized the thermonuclear fusion thingy in the video and wanted to point it out. Thanks for correcting me btw.
"The road to hell is paved with the most dangerous words ever said, muttered by the old and the foolish: 'Remember how things used to be.'"
That's chilling just on its own, because it's also the first two items on Umberto Eco's 14 Features of Fascism: "the cult of tradition" and "the rejection of modernism".
Like, damn, that line was so powerful I had to look up the Ur-Fascism essay.
based
i'm 25 minutes in and i'm making a prediction: the iron deficiency thing is because they're time traveling VAMPIRES
Of course you would suspect vampires, Sookie 🙄
Through a vid of all these ominous sounding sci-fi tik tok clips i gotta say, "before the inbreeding got really really really bad" made me laugh so unexpectedly, lmao. love finding these interesting stories through your coverage.
JFC this is the first ARG or horror thing to get under my skin. no bc that first video DID make me see shit out of the corner of my eye which was spooky, probably just because i was already spooked and also expecting it? idk weird shit man
seriously. now i'm scared i'm gonna have nightmares of this man and door lmao
Brains are stupid
Nightmind is the only TH-camr I can repeatedly binge watch without feeling the boredom of repeated information because of how packed his videos are ❤️
"We are benevolent. Do not fear us."
...that makes me nervous.
Great video, great ARG.
Basically the Kairos Alliance says:
"The past is never dead, it's not even past."
Remember, there will be blood
I just remembered, the name Tutenkhamun can be translated to "The life of amun is pleasing", and King Tut's original name was Tutenkhaten. Wouldn't "The life of Aten is Pleasing" therefore be a reference to Tutenkhamun/Tutenkhaten and not a literal statement?
You clever bastrd
I feel like the blue and red wheels at the end represent two different factions in the Alliance, especially since we've seen their logo turn both blue and red, and Kairos mentions red a lot (the words on the screen when he talks near the end were red as well). He might still be scared, scared enough that he stopped moving forward at some point, but others in the Alliance want to keep going.
A solid red umbrella would also be a solid red wheel logo.... 🤔
@@1000wastedwords That is true. Maybe he is the embodiment of fear, which is why Kairos associates red with fear.
@@rozu7772 Hmmmm. Maybe. Or maybe the red faction is anti-AI, which would also scare him.
@@1000wastedwords Good idea! Kairos is definitely scared of something the rest of the Alliance isn't, and if that fear is anti-AI be it the Alliance not wanting to be held back or the Umbrella man that would make more sense.
That's a good observation.
And it's interesting they refer to certain figures in their group/organization as "constants", which suggests some members of the group have some kind of stability throughout time.
"If a lion could speak, we would not understand him." is a quote by the famous philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein.
I like how sometimes they throw in comedy like the time travel vacation infomercial
Sure was a mood swing.
Man, Kairos pops up from time to time on my feed and I just think, “What could’ve been?”
No, really, what could have been? What could possibly have been a satisfying progression of the story that neatly tied everything together?
I don’t think anything could’ve delivered on the fascinating beginning of this project, which is why I always come back here.
Is there a summary on where the ARG went after this video? It does sound super interesting, and I've been curious as to what happened.
some parts of it remind me of Dad too, particularly the lyrics in the song "Beyond"
A TikTok trip?

It’s a TripTok

"Iron begets death" also refers to the stellar life cycle. First hydrogen, then helium, etc refers to how stars create heavier and heavier elements during their life. Once sufficient amounts of iron are formed in a star, it dies in a supernova.
This sounds like a book on Wattpad I've read, it even has the same name, Kairos. Same theme as time travel, instead it follows a woman and her tumultuous relationship with a married politician, her job was to travel back in time during historic events.
As someone who is from VERY NEAR one of the locations mentioned was the most unsettling surprise 😂
I think the split screen with the same image means something. I see with the BC dates they have like a wormhole between two times. I’m not sure if the images vary but that would be interesting.
Aldebaran is the eye of taurus , and a Yellow Door kinda seems Hastur or King in Yellow things
Clark Ashton Smith and Robert E. Howard used alot of references about it
" Hastur inhabits the Lake of Hali on a planet circling a dark star near Aldebaran. The Celaeno Library might also be located here."
I was certainly getting some King in Yellow vibes from all the fuss about the yellow door.
Okay but the video featured at 21:00 genuinely got a couple of laughs out of me lol
I don't know if they intended but that's a great motivational discourse...
The thought of "Those were better days stops you"
If you yearn for the same comfort, keep moving forward, it will allow you to reach peace with present and past in the future...
I like to see the message changed into something that and I really really like it...
For those mentioning the iron/fusion/star death line, remember “As above so below”.
A motorcycle in my neighborhood revved up while I was watching the yellow circle part and I almost had a heart attack.
As always, incredible content waiting for me
Okay, theory: if Robert Smith represents/is Kairos, then Mark Harrington represents/is Kronos.
Oooh... you know what? That's a theory worth holding onto. Good thinking!
30 mins the video has a different tone from kairos and the logo colour changes to red, Harrington could be the man with the umbrella who takes control of the broadcasts? Kinda a an and enki and other brother stories in multiple religions throughout human history that involve conflict of two brothers/sides
0:48 Yes! Shudder has so many genres! Like horror, and...more horror...
Yes, but do they have horror? I mean horror-horror?😂😂😂
I mean I love that they offer horror, but I really feel like it'd be wonderful if they expanded their horizons to horror.
Chillers, Thrillers, Spillers, Frillers, Millers, and Tinglers.
@@TiroDvD BUT does it have any horror?
The whole "Iron begets death" I think is based on stars. They combine hydrogen into heavier and heavier elements, and once they reach iron, they collapse into a supernova.

Night mind needs to check monument mythos next. It recently had its last episode and its really good even though it barely gets talked about.

Half the time I have NO idea what you're on about, but when I see the notification, I click it and FAST. LOVE your work.
What a wonderful surprise! A new Nightmind video to finish my shift at work watching :)
Never trust someone who insists they are benevolent or trustworthy. Those are qualities to prove, not claim.
This feels like a softcore version of the Combine
Thank you for these consistent uploads lately. Helps to get through the day
@3:57 THAT there _is_ thee soundtrack, to the Atari game 'E.T.'. The pitter patter is E.T.'s walking footsteps! OMG, the memories & "Ah crap!" the realization of, "Fck, I'm _so_ gawd dang old now!" Thanks? 😘💕
Ohh you’re always around right when I’m in the mood!
Now this is a treat!
Thank you for assisting us in implementing our agenda. We are benevolent. -KA
The “iron begets death” thing is a reference to star formation, fusing atoms to extract energy. In a star’s core, hydrogen fuses to make helium, etc. But once iron is created, that is the end of the line, a star can’t fuse that atom any longer. Once all the matter in a star’s core turns to iron, the star dies. Hence scientists consider iron formation in a star’s core it’s “death.”
Can't believe he didn't mention how mention how many times they say they're "benevolent" and "should not be feared". They are trying to get "inhabitants" to not fear them.
Oh, and he also didn't mention all the weird things like the sudden talk about Jupiter with a halo, the random poetry, and the scene of dead people at the end.
Yo!! I discovered them on tiktok just last week, i'm so excited to see you covering this!
I absolutely love when ARGs have comedy, it’s why I like Momument Mythos so much, take me to the Stone Age!
I was just catching up on NM as listening material during work yesterday! Gotta love that timing, baybeee.
The introduction of quantum mechanics is a pleasant surprise; it's a fascinating topic that I keep up with regularly. Intriguing.
In Chinese astronomy 客星 (guest star) is a star which has suddenly appeared in a place where no star had previously been observed and becomes invisible again after some time. The term is a literal translation from ancient Chinese astronomical records.
Also thank you Nick for giving me something to watch on the nights I can’t sleep your voice calms me down
ive seen those videos on my fyp and have been waiting for someone like you to do a video on it :)
I just want to say THANK YOU for making a video on this because now the ARG has YT ads. Unfiction and unreality have extreme potential to add to delusions and paranoia, speaking as someone who is psychotic myself and have had my delusions added to by them, the most memorable being Cicada3301. I actually cannot interact with most ARGs because of how they present themselves and it makes the majority of the genre inaccessible and often triggering for psychotics because of how the projects present themselves as real.
So all of a sudden getting an ad of a video and it being worded in a way that is extremely suggestive in a way that makes it easy for my psychosis to latch on to and create a delusion around, it is horrifying. A lot of people don't understand how this kind of content put out like that is scary for people who have no context or who need to avoid certain things for triggers. If I actually keep seeing more of these ads or looking at the videos, I likely will get a persecutory delusion from it and start believing the people behind it are out to get me.
So, thank you so much for already having a video out that covers it as an ARG and makes it clear that it is. I have gotten other disturbing ads before, so I wouldn't have been suprised if this was one of them.
Happy for you gettin' that bread with that sponsorship! Your channel deserves every bit. Thank you for your content!
And yes you're definitely right about time also another relation to time is while Robert Smith was talking it was showing what I believe is a four dimensional depiction of a square, which is often referred to as either space-time, space, or time
This is super refreshing to see among all the analog unfiction we've been seeing lately; I really, really love a good analog horror project, but it's just nice to see something different and uber-futuristic like this! Really excited to see more of it!
Didn't even know that Tiktok was capable of having things like this
What? Did you think it was only dumb teens dancing to pop, boomer?
i personally thought it was nothing but civil disobedience

I mean I'm more not using it because the Chinese government is involved with it
TikTok has gotten so incredibly robust as an all-out media tool, it's fantastic. The days of it being just a bunch of lip-synching and dance trends are waaaay past.
oh boy if you want I can suggest some people to follow who are doing interesting things like this?
One of these days an arg/webseries is going to actually be real and we're all going to be screwed
Hope its something like dad, so no horrors
This was Soo interesting! Loved this video I can't believe I have been skipping videos I'm so gonna binge more of these.
Brilliant as always
I take issue with the description of moving forward to go back.
No planet traces the old path. With the movement of the solar system, all planets move In a corkscrew. They never retread old ground. The fact the Galaxy itself is also moving means that even if we saw a full revolution around the galactic center, we still wouldn't be back at the same point in space.
You have no idea how long I was waiting for a sequel to Time Cube.
Having a pretty shit day but I'm so happy you posted I love all you videos. Thanks for always posting amazing content
I love your voice and I like watching your videos in the night so you could say I have a night mind too :3
I think out of all of the series I’ve seen none have made me more unsettled or terrified than this. Props to the creator or creators
It’s just past 1am and I am so ready for new content
For everyone who wants to follow this ARG, but doesn't have Tiktok, Kairos Alliance is also on TH-cam, and still uploading.
