Wonderment is a human superpower.

Novelty fuels wonderment.

Life erodes our wonderment to our detriment.

In the age of AI video desensitization, our wonderment will be destroyed by the anti-novelty, over saturated, AI Social Media platforms.

@rossiadam @coachfostervt great cause!! last time i was back for a game, i talked to loads of staff at the alumni events, and many in the local communities are struggling.

@Rory_Johnston i'd much rather restaurants implement a no-pretentious-DINKs policy. i think it solves the exact same problem with maximum societal benefits.

1999 was the peak of modern culture and progress.

This clip from the Matrix explains:

Why was 1999 selected as “the peak of your civilization”?

“Because as soon as we started thinking for you it really became our civilization.”

@nnzp1730 @LukeGromen my sample is from a bit earlier than that, but i'll leave the details vague. :)

[frank @vtKMH]

@LukeGromen @nnzp1730 when i was a kid in elementary school, every single kid in my class could climb the rope to the top. one or two just took a little longer.

what percent of elementary school kids could today, and what percent of gym teachers would still have a job if the asked em to?
