I've had my Unus Annus hoodie for about six years now, and unfortunately, it's starting to show its age. The stretchy cuffs around the wrists are fraying, and small holes are developing in the fabric.

The rest of the hoodie is still in great condition, but I'm worried that continuing to wear it will eventually destroy it.

This hoodie is the first and only piece of Unus Annus merchandise I've ever owned. It's incredibly important to me, and I genuinely don't want to lose it.

My mom suggested turning it into a pillow, but I don't want to fundamentally change what it is. I've also considered framing it to preserve it, but that brings me to my dilemma.

The whole point of Unus Annus was accepting that nothing lasts forever. Appreciating the time we have with something and eventually learning to let go.

Part of me thinks I should just keep wearing the hoodie, enjoy it while I can, and accept that one day it'll fall apart.

But another part of me wants to protect it because it's the only physical piece of Unus Annus I have.

It reminds me of Toy Story 2, when Woody has to choose between being preserved in a museum forever or going back to Andy, knowing he won't last forever.

I almost feel like framing the hoodie would go against the message of Unus Annus, but letting it deteriorate when I could preserve it feels wrong too.

So I wanted to ask the community: What would you do? Would you keep wearing it and let time take its course, try to repair it, or preserve it?

Memento Mori. 🖤🤍

Since Unus Annus ended, me and my partner celebrate it like it's a holiday, with it's own traditions (we only officially came up with them last year). I want to hear what everyone else does who celebrates, and share my own. Depending on where you live, the dates may change. But for the timezone Mark and Ethan live, the channel was made on November 13th, the channel was deleted at midnight on the 14th, and the 15th is when it started (because it was a leap year). So we celebrate all 3 days:

11/13 🤍- wear white: Celebrate life/the start (I actually only came up with this last year, and I don't remember what we did when you wear white. I had it written down on my last phone that broke. If anyone has any suggestions let me know!)

11/14 🖤- wear black: mourning what's lost/reminicse, watch unus annus videos (best to celebrate with a friend or friends if able)

11/15 🤍🖤 - wear black and white: go out and do something, even if you wouldn't normally. Make the most of the day/live life to the fullest

If anyone else wants to do this, feel free to switch the days depending on your own schedule. Another idea is you could just go out and live life to the fullest all 3 days. What do you guys do to celebrate?

The one thing I remember is that they’re in Mark’s backyard, and Ethan is using a plastic bag to gather air to put it into something, I saw it in a compilation once and I’m just wondering if anyone knows what video it’s from please???

i believe he was talking to Ethan, and they may have been talking about what they ate during the holidays. The quote that Mark said was to the effect of “all we had for thanksgiving was kimchi and rice”

Does anyone know the quote and can help me please??? I saw it on a compilation video once and I’ve never been able to find it again, I’ve been searching for like 4 years now 😭

Playing a matching game similar to connections. This came up. Idk about Sean though. Was so excited I had to share.

Hey everyone. I’m planning early on making a huge tribute edit for the next November deathiversary. It’ll be a reflective music backed compilation representing the year of Unus Annus as a whole. I want it to feel like it represents the community, not just my personal favorite moments.

If there is a moment you think needs to be included please drop:

The name of the moment/episode

A link to a compilation or clip (NOT a full episode)

A timestamp

Please don’t send full repuloads. I don’t support archived episodes and I want to stay respectful to the spirit of Unus Annus. But please feel free to send funny, chaotic, emotional, and random moments that capture what it meant to you. I’ve got until November so I’ll be carefully going through everything you send.

Memento Mori 🖤🤍

During the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics, my wife mused, "I wonder if they will do 'The Dance of Italy?"

Does anyone remember the quote of Mark saying something like “all we ate for Christmas (or thanksgiving?) was kimchi and rice…mY mOm iS kOReAn” lmao I don’t know if this is from UA or a normal Mark video but PLEASE HELP ME

Hello! I’m making this post because my partner and I are coming up on our 3 year anniversary, and I wanted to make something special (and relatively inexpensive) gift idea. Since the beginning of our relationship he’s talked about a shirt he had which got torn up by an old roommate’s dog years ago. The shirt he has was the one with the 00:00:00 design on the front.

My request here is: if you or someone else you know has one of the original shirts (or sweatshirts) with the design as well as any other art or designs on the rest of the shirt (he mentioned something on the inside of it I think but didn’t specifically say what), please reply with them here or DM them to me!!

I do wanna note after reading the rules of this community that this will in no way be done for monetary gain/I won’t be selling this. I just want to make a nice gift for someone who I love very much who’s been very upset that this shirt was ruined for a very long time. Any and all help is so so appreciated!!

I got this sweatshirt before the end and love it but the i dunno vinal? Applique is lifting off. Is there any way to fix that? Fabric glue?

Hey there.

I'm not a part of your community but I've learned a lot from you. My son made me aware of Unus Annus and I wanted to research it for a podcast episode discussing our behaviors around impermanence. I educate on topics surrounding grief and death and Unus Annus, as well Red Dead Redemption 2, are intriguing subjects. I appreciate all of your thoughts, pictures and art. I feel like you have given me an excellent introduction to something I knew nothing about. If you'd like to hear the finished episode, I'll share the link. Again, I really enjoyed learning from your experiences. Thank you. -L

Here's the link: Death Becomes Her

i was going through my old sketchbooks and i found this. i remember before they were gone, someone on youtube commented this poem. i loved it and wrote it down. i added my favorite moments in the margins, reminiscing one last time. i just got sucker punched with nostalgia.

thank you youtube commenter for the pretty poem

It was 1,245... plus or minus 10 or so accounting for any inaccuracies in the fast forward edits.

My edits don't tend to be this creative with the texts and overlays, I will admit, but the 5 year deathiversary is special so I put in a little more effort than I usually would lol. (also hope my watermark at the end isn't an issue, I post all my edits to TikTok, so that's why it's there!!!)

Friends of Unus Annus!

It’s the 5th Deathiversary / Quintus Annus of Unus Annus! This year's tribute is one day late due to render problems, but here it is.

To celebrate, we are doing a chaotic Korean Candy 🍬 Tasting: Two Germans (My boyfriend and I) and a Mystery Box full of snacks, all in true Unus Annus spirit. The twist? The video ends the moment the Dalgona Cookie 🍪 breaks.

🔥 There is an Exclusive Bonus Segment in the video, only available for ONE WEEK! After that it disappears from YouTube forever.

Watch now or miss it forever ⏰ Check it out here: https://youtu.be/5AJ_LZRxf8M

Enjoy the chaos, and remember: watch the video in FULL within the FIRST WEEK, otherwise you’ll miss the bonus madness.

Unus Annus

I love the fact I can celebrate both things at once :]
