American society is augmented via to make the bottom and tops of our look like a tolerable or "equal" group to sustain an average state of being ... Or at least, we did

@o22ie I thought about that a lot, but then I look at my MacBook Pro (which is still killing it, BTW) and I found myself wondering: “in the past four years, when did I push this machine to its extreme?”

The answer is three, maybe four times: in the end it was vastly over-spec’d for my day-to-day usage!

Nate Hagens has posted an extremely long and intellectually deep podcast going down several rabbit holes with Daniel Schmachtenberger on the coming risks of Artificial Intelligence on humanity. Schmachtenberger is known for his particular interest in the topics of catastrophic and existential risk, civilization and institutional decay and collapse as well as progress.

Listening to a Conspirituality episode about how in the United States has been framed as a form of agency, possibly the only expression of agency. Even though the episode hasn't mentioned the , I can't help thinking about it in the context of .

It's always been baffling to me how eating at restaurants and shopping at big box stores seems to be the epitome of the good life to so many people. Isn't life defined by so much more—the knowledge you acquire, the time you spend with loved ones and the impact your make on improving the world? But if in the US, consumerism is agency, then yes, sadly, to many people, suddenly not being a consumer would be not just a supposed impingement on their freedom but a mass existential crisis. Who am I if I can't consume? I guess rather than seeking deeper meaning, people would prefer to risk illness, death and disability from covid.

It isn't so much "when did I stop having flying dreams?" part that concerns me, but the "why did I stop having flying dreams?" part.

I do wonder will anyone remember

When finally I follow the footfalls of ancestors

Their names unknown

Whose grey soft steps

Trace paths from earth to evermore

When nothing is left behind but words

Will you remember?

Exclusive: Huge chunk of plants, animals in U.S. at risk of extinction reuters.com/business/environme 🧐 If we as a nation & a species cannot care for non human life forms and their future, then we doom & damn ourselves along with our nation and planet. This is more than an it’s the & irrational debacle all of human history.

QOTD: "We need 3,000,000 Colombian peso's to buy this antique icebox for the office" I can't stop thinking about this. I don't think I will ever hear this statement again. Like ever.

A couple years ago I saw a post about a guy whose dog has to stop at the same bush every time they go for a walk because once the dog found half a pie in the bush.

This story lives rent free in my head, and it's so sad because I will never be 100% fully completely happy because I will never know why there was half a pie in the bush.

I hate that there are unknowable things in this world.

I’ve decided I’m not going to have a midlife crisis. I’m just going to embrace the rolling existential crises I’ve been having since birth.
