Dear 10+ Patrons,

I'll be doing my "November" AMA patron stream this Sunday at 9pm ET (the stream will be recorded and archived here as usual). Use the comments on this post to submit a question you want to ask me, and I'll answer it on the stream!

I can link some to you :)

No real question, but you should look at <a href="https://youtu.be/uSdHoNJu5fU" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/uSdHoNJu5fU</a> if you haven't (two cute animated characters discuss "Reading and Time: A dialectic between academic expectation and academic frustration"). Contains swearing about having to read fucking German.

I'm genderqueer myself and I feel like this is something that isn't generally discussed except by independent circles that generally deserve more attention than they currently have.

Hey, Contra! Love all the work you do. You will always be a hero to me!! :) On the subject of reading, do you have any interest in making a video on literature written by trans / genderqueer authors? Keep thriving <3

Hey Contra! Weird question but I’m just wondering, have you ever considered talking about/making content around topics of metaphysics? i.e questions about the nature of reality itself, consciousness and the mind/body problem, physicalism/materialism versus idealism/dualism etc.. I’m hoping you have some HOT TAKES on stuff like this, and I’ve always been interested in hearing where your thoughts lie considering your time in neuroscience.

Sorry if this has been asked before, but any specific suggestions for reading by any chance? I know that this question isn't as in depth as the others but if there are any books that gave you a particularly fresh perspective on something or inspired your style of speaking I would really love to check them out! Hope you're doing ok, it sounds like its been a pretty crazy time. You're awesome and I hope things calm down soon x P.S. If there's time, thoughts on Eurovision?

Didnt understand the video reason. Wrong format of question. Hmm, Ok, i Have a query. Do you believe events like Black Friday engages deindividuation, creates a "hive mind morality" and allows for retail outlets to become the ultimate authority temporarily?

Can you explain the story of that tapestry behind you during the violence video (bdsm characters scene)? The art style looks medieval, and I am curious both how you came across it and what is being depicted there.

Hey! Thank you so much for throwing yourself out there and making wonderful Content in a world of YouTube trolls and misinformation! My question is, how do you find a balance for yourself as a creator? The quality of the videos has gone up but that must mean you have to put more time and emotional energy into them! Has this impacted your day to day? Ps you are beautiful!

Imagine for a moment NASA or the UN or some other big organisation has developed a space going ark. The brightest and best minds from across thousands of different fields and disciplines are being collected to send to another planet and start humanity 2.0. You get to select the three you tubers, who are they?

Hello Natalie! I am going to cheat and ask three unrelated questions: (ok pick the one you like the best) 1. What do you think/what's your experience with (latino) macho culture/sexism? (pleeease don't say you can't have a say on it due to culture differences etc. I am not asking for an essay (necessarily), you are entitled to an honest genuine opinion or tales to tell!) 2. What is your relationship with "manual" visual arts such as painting or sculpting? (digital or traditional). Your sense of color harmony is exquisite. 3. What's (one of) the best, most important things that you learned while studying music? (when I was studying genetic engineering I learned I liked creating more than I liked learning (I love both!) was your case the other way around by chance?) Thanks for eeeeverything and see you later!
