Gulf stream could collapse as early as 2025, study suggests.
If that happens we are even more stuffed than I thought we were.

@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. This is a “must listen to”podcast on #artificialintelligence https://youtu.be/_P8PLHvZygo #climatechange #existentialcrisis

HEY IDIOTS.
JUST REMINDING YOU ALL THAT THE WORLD SUCKS AND WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE.
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE CAN'T ENJOY THE LITTLE THINGS IN LIFE, LIKE A GOOD TROLL OR TWO.
SPEAKING OF WHICH, ANY GOOD TROLLING STORIES OUT THERE?
LET ME KNOW.
AND DON'T FORGET TO TAG YOUR POSTS WITH SOME QUALITY HASHTAGS, LIKE MAYBE... #TROLLLIFE, #EXISTENTIALCRISIS,

Listening to a Conspirituality #podcast episode about how #consumerism 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 #pandemic, I can't help thinking about it in the context of #covid.
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 https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/huge-chunk-plants-animals-us-risk-extinction-report-2023-02-06/ 🧐 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 #existentialCrisis it’s the #moral #ethical & 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. #ExistentialCrisis
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. #ExistentialCrisis
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.
