We tend to talk about life as if it’s roughly the same for everyone.
And yet some children are orphaned at birth and some people die at 80 and their parents outlive them.
These are almost completely separate categories of existence.
We’re all walking around assuming our baseline is roughly the baseline, when actually there’s no baseline at all.

A new world is struggling to be born.
Lots of people hating on the boomers recently and I just want to say that I was early to boomer hate long before it was cool. 😂
We live on such a beautiful planet


This is an actual picture of young me buying bitcoin for the first time.
I usually don’t share this picture because I mean, you can totally see my balls lol 😂
I feel like the help yourself on the drinks fridge is very accurate foreshadowing.


One time I was at the craps table with a founder and they were asking me if I was gonna invest in their company. I had just won 5k so I handed them the chips and was like consider me an investor.
I love doing random impulsive shit like that. lol 😂
The villain and the hero share the same pain.
The villain says I suffered so everyone must suffer, the hero says no one should have to suffer like I did.
I wonder where this dumb bitch is nowadays


It’s lowkey crazy to think that your money steals from you, but it does.
The docking scene from interstellar is a perfect encapsulation of how I expect humans and A.I.’s aka robots to work together. CASE and TARS are hyper intelligent mission specialists, crucial to the success of the mission, but they don’t have the instincts of cooper.
So when cooper begins the docking sequence on pure adrenaline. CASE tells him it’s impossible and he shouldn’t waste fuel. He’s trying to keep the humans alive for longer, but cooper knows if they don’t risk it all right here, right now they’re dead and so is everyone back on earth.
“It’s impossible” CASE says, “No. It’s necessary” Cooper replies.
Once the human instinct to survive kicks into high gear the human processing speed is deep and instant, the robots though smarter than Cooper can not compete with his millions of years of instincts honed under the most intense evolutionary pressures. Cooper is optimizing for the right goal.
They race towards the ship and now CASE and TARS help initiate and pull off the calculations and mechanics for the spin move docking sequence in real time something cooper could not do on this own. Brandt passes out from the G force as the robots race to complete the task. Cooper even tells TARS to take over if he passes out. Eventually they dock and take back control of the ship.
But without the delicate symphony between human and robot intelligence extending, leveraging and coordinating with one another everyone dies.
It’s an amazing sequence and a reminder that we shouldn’t worry about our new robot buddies, because they will help us do great things. Who we should worry about are the creepy gatekeepers attempting to stifle what we are allowed to do with them.
