ukulele apology video. We are in a moment in history where apology videos and an essential part

0:39.4

of the internet, a historic iconic point in many YouTubers, careers are becoming dust. They're

getting Thanos snapped out of existence in some shapes and in some forms. There's three instances

of this happening over the past few months that have really caught my eye and putting them together.
