Ngl I’ve watched your video a few times now — definitely a fan xD Fair play to you for keeping it raw and personal, that kind of authenticity isn’t easy to pull off. I know time’s tight in a TED-style format and what you said carried weight, I see where you’re coming from. But I wasn’t nodding all the way through. Especially that bit about military service coming off as some kind of quick fix — whether we messed up by looking for cheat codes or ditched it altogether — I’m not fully sold. After ten years of being force-fed whatever the school system throws at you, that just feels like salt in the wound, y’know? That bit about porn — maybe it’s just the tip of the iceberg? Feels more like a symptom than the actual issue. We’ve all become proper content junkies, chasing little dopamine hits every few minutes. It’s not just porn — it’s reels, stories, memes, clickbait, all of it just a swipe away, sitting in your pocket 24/7. You could easily argue, though, that mobile phone bans in schools are nothing short of smoke screens. Funny thing, I dabbled in film when I was a teenager — shot something at 17, years later made it onto Filmweb, though it’s hardly something to shout about. I see nothing wrong in your approach of bypassing formal education, there were many acclaimed filmmakers who did not attend film schools, Werner Herzog to name just one. And hey, have you ever looked into psychometric tests like Gallup, DISC, or anything Jungian? With a bit of AI thrown into the mix, they can actually be a brilliant way to get your head around your own patterns — especially handy not just for when you’re moving out of mum’s basement :))
