I Got Nothin...

2012-12-14 · Hank · watch on YouTube · Global development · advocacy activism

On the day of a school shooting (per the description), Hank says he has nothing to say and no wish to analyse, but that it is a time to feel together as humanity; he points to the coming Project for Awesome as a way to make the world better and insists humanity is good.

What is said

00:00:00 — Hank has nothing to say after the shooting; hugs per gunshot victim; he set aside a planned video on friends with ulcerative colitis after a personal video on his other channel

  • ★★ Hank wonders whether this counts as a video: there is nothing to say, and he thinks he will have to come back tomorrow and make a video then. (hedged) — 00:00:07
  • ★★★ Hank says he is trying to remember that the world is a good place and that the number of hugs per gunshot victim is very high. — 00:00:07
  • ★★ Hank had planned a video on having friends with ulcerative colitis and how to treat them, after just posting a very personal video on his other channel about having the disease. — 00:00:28 · hankschannel
  • ★★ Hank says he does not feel like analysis or musings, he's 'got nothing', and he thinks everybody feels about the same. (hedged) — 00:00:28

00:00:55 — Together as humanity; the Project for Awesome: projectforawesome.com, livestream, mailing list, make charity videos
