quick 4 year life update:
• finally moved out
• bought my dream jdm daily (crown)
• married my high school sweet heart
• homestay dad to international students
@bentist@jakepaul@SHAQ@mcuban I don't deny though that Sora will breed a new generation of consumers, specifically, ones that don't care whether a piece of content is AI-generated or not as long as it still entertains them.
Living in a future where these consumers outnumber us would be quite depressing.
@bentist@jakepaul@SHAQ@mcuban Interesting take. Life is all adapting to the landscape; this one (from the perspective of personal brand growth) is hard to accept. I simply have no desire of generating unlimited "creations" of myself that aren't actually me. Feels very sell-soul (your "likeness") @ that point.
@neuf_ro We're highschool sweet hearts to be fair. I'm happy to say that both of us, pure, grew in love. It took me a long time to snap out of the conditioning placed on men to stay legally single but here we are now. 😊
A whole new lens.
It feels weird being married within social circles that consist primarily of people that aren't married.
Ideas, beliefs, and actions within the circle that I once use to align with no longer align.
I always thought marriage wouldn't change anything. What a naive thought.
To be honest, I miss when Twitter/X didn't have a sensationalized algorithm feeding me everything that's happening in the world.
I always come back with good intentions only to eventually find myself hijacked into scrolling emotionally-charged content I never wanted to see.
I admit it takes a strong gut to be on this platform. Thrown differing sets of values and opinions left and right. All for what?
It is no longer a surprise to find myself emotionally fatigued after scrolling enough. One can only absorb so much. Better off off.
Thank you all Lancers for sharing your highlight!

Having homestay students has drastically changed my experience with life.
I feel a different sense of fulfillment being their guardian; responsible for their safety, growth, and wellbeing.
It comes even before my own desires for myself; something I use to only care about.
