Love thor, i was brought the channel after watching the doctor mike interview. I do love that he basically brought up the ship of theseus thought experiment but star trek.
2:10:25 Processing and getting over past negative experiences
It feels so weird to have a therapist do an interview because im noticing it so much
I listened to a few minutes of this when it it dropped on YT but man do I wish I watched the whole thing before now
I absolutely love this. The two content creators that have helped drastically improve my life, together, talking about things that matter to me. Thor has helped me regain my motivation and focus to achieve what I want to achieve in life, even though thats not gaming and programming, its still relateable. Dr K. has helped me on the emotional and mental health side of things and to understand myself and my feelings and why they are the way they are, and how I can channel and direct those feelings to serve myself, good or bad.
Thank you for this, both of you are an insiration for me.
Holy shit he thinks just like me. I thought I was alone.
Just wow, was not expecting this. Good stuff ❤
this is the collab ive been waiting for
🙁 I'm just stuck with a video about "Rehab to Recovery Ranch – Andrew Maloof" with a yellow tracking bar like an ad, but with no option to skip or otherwise end the ad. It has 55 minutes remaining. I just want to watch Dr. K. What is going on, Youtube?
When thinking about the whole demoralized when the first game or games fail, it made me think of learning piano and the levels are from Gr 1 -10 and then Advanced. If its your first game, you just learned how to play Mary had a Little lamb really well and wonder why no one is hiring you to play piano at a birthday party. Bro, all you know is a song using 5 notes.
Even in RPG Maker… I'm not spending hundreds of hours making sprites and graphics that don't help the game when it's going to be bad anyway. Its actually a fun challenge to try and make a game using the stock sprites and effects with minimal added on top. Its gonna be bad so don't put in the effort you don't need to when it will be bad with your stuff or the stock stuff just the same. Just spend time making the game.
This is hilarious, Thor says he doesn't have much spiritual practice, and as the stream progresses we find out he's an early stage monk
1:36:30 I have problems finding articles when I google this. I always believed we were wired for negativity
I wish I had emotions, ever since I was 18 I feel like my emotions have been cut off
Should talk to his dad he's hilarious.
1:59:11 I'm surprised to hear HealthyGamerGG repeat a popular neurological myth about right vs left brain functions. A simple google shows reputable sources how it's false, and hasn't been a belief of neuroscience for a long time. Such a basic mistake in their field of claimed expertise really makes me cast huge doubt on everything they say.
I think I learned more about Dr. K than ever before. Thor was a great catalyst for this.
Jebus that long ad in the beginning… 🙁
That first hour as Thor was describing is experiences, his mental, how he's seeing eveything above rock-bottom survival as just hanging around doing stuff, I was right there with Dr. K, getting more and more excited at seeing someone who had amazing "stats" for yoga.
And I saw how Dr. K kind of regretted giving him the old "so on what path do you want to continue this talk" and Thor picked the "mental health in game dev" and the Doctor basically railroaded him right back into spirituality.
It's been so long since I last watched an HG interview, I'm really happy to have caught this in my feed
Two of my favourite channels, together! Thanks for making this possible. I feel this was a very rewarding and insightful conversation for everyone who is fortunate enough to watch it.
Also, especially from the philosophy Thor reveals in this interview, I realize more and more that Thor is a man of wisdom. So objective and insightful in everything.
Thanks for both of you for making this amazing piece of content, and I eagerly look forward to more!
Quite honestly Thor os the most stable out of all of the streamers Dr K’s probably encountered
I listen to this as I slept last night. Thor. Top tier human. This other dude. Kinda a know it all ass. Thor explaining something and mr 711 says “Thor I’m thinking” to shut him up. Nah. Habibi needs to learn manners
The discussion of the corpus callosum was particularly insightful in processing a circumstance I'm currently experiencing, so thank you.
