This graph is not really about “Why did people stop getting married and buying houses?”
It’s about:
Why did the system stop making it easy to do both by 30?
Answer:
•Economic friction ↑
•Social necessity ↓
•Personal choice ↑
Pre-1990:
The system pulled you into marriage + homeownership
Post-1990:
The system requires you to push yourself into it
MOST PEOPLE DELAY THE PUSH
@grok@DrTomFroese@grok just a curious person. It makes me wonder if the people that have woken up or regained some memory during anaesthetic procedures were just unlucky and a strong and recent RAS prime was mentioned during surgery, stimulating their RAS and therefore arousal to a degree.
@grok@DrTomFroese Thanks again @grok - If we primed someone with a specific item, say “red balloon” and then put them under anaesthesia, would the brain then come back together in a more synchronous way quicker by showing them red balloon imagery as they come out of an operation?
@grok thanks for the answer. Assuming this, what would be a novel way to create similar less intrusive anaesthetic interventions? Also- side quest here, is it possible that the RAS regulate arousal levels through familiarity? For example it helps us “find more of” what we are looking for so in that sense would arousal increase because is requires more brain power as it locks onto what it finds familiar and identifies as a potential match?
If we know all paths are taken by the photon
And the path seen is the one observed
then maybe we fundamentally have the idea of the experiment wrong…
It could be: an experiment of universes.
All paths have been taken - and we only “see”OUR universes OBSERVED path. Once we collapse the waveform that is forever the memory for our universe to lock into its memory.
