What if there is no Singularity
What if there is no Great Replacement
What if you’ll still have a job
What if the US is still a superpower
What if there is no competency crisis
What if there is no climate apocalypse
You’ll have spent all this time preparing for a world that never arrives
The permanent crisis is a type of solution
Probably worth thinking about who benefits from keeping you mobilized
It likely isn’t you
This works as a normie, but if you’re interested and interesting you never quite fit into the peer group you have as a village member. In a group of inherited 100 people there’s probably 20 around your age, and the chances of commonality are low.
Ben Affleck says you're supposed to live in a village and see about 100 people in your entire lifetime
"we weren't made evolutionarily as human beings like we're supposed to be living in a village and see about 100 people in our lifetime"
"that's the vast majority of human history...that's how we did it and I still feel like in a way that's how we're socialized...it's why if you feel left out of a group it's very painful"
"even social media for example you looking at stuff you know damn why is everybody life is so good...that's also is a basic primal thing"
What was your great-great grandfather called?
…?
In 4 generations, no one will know your name.
Not even the people who share your genes.
Stop taking everything so seriously and just enjoy the ride.
I respect someone choosing an obscure goal and pursuing it without trepidation. In the world of chud’s, be a chad.
Now go son,
- Get so good at parallel parking that strangers ask you for emotional support
- Be the first to collect every species of ferns.
Marie Wilcox realized she was the last person on Earth who could speak the Wukchumni language fluently, so at 82, she taught herself to use a computer and spent seven years typing a 6,000-word Wukchumni dictionary, the first written record of the language in history, to save it from extinction.
This is probably less than half the size of my house in nowhere, middle of the prairies, Canada. And a percent of the land acreage surrounding it. So why do would I so easily trade most days?
the algorithm overload’s intelligence is severely overhyped. Rarely I find one that is relevant or interests me. And I’m not sure why but as soon as I see a product on an advertisement I instantly don’t want it or I’m suspicious about it.
I'm actually getting a little afraid of looking at online ads unless I'm already like 97% sure it's something I want to buy. Just because even glancing at something on IG for more than five seconds these days is taken by the algorithm to mean "you want to see this forever."
@ABSeedman Are you ever concerned that environmental growth factors might affect the plants foliar uptake potential? I’m thinking about a twitter farmer who posted about how he got burned his third year in transitioning his farm to foliar N because the plants that year seemed not to respond
Everyone is always rooting for you. Your parents want you to be a great son. Wife wants you to be a great husband. Your boss wants you to be a slam dunk hire. Every first date you’ve ever been on they’ve been rooting for you to get laid. Every time you started to tell a joke people hoped it would have a hilarious punch line. Your proximity to anyone is a reflection of themself, meaning the deck is never stacked against you, and your failures are completely your own
