  1. You need to get Lindsey on - its the cool new thing to do. Also we need to get her famous enough to replace David Attenborough for the new generation.

  2. Yeah but on the other hand - we got protestants and therefore capitalism so its was a mistake not to in hindsight.

  3. Yeah - do you rearrange the pile of words to make the best monologue as if you were writing a story? Kinda put them in both the most understandable way and the nicest sounding way? I do - you probably guessed that

  4. YEP - I fully expect we will let it get so bad we end up begging China to solve it as they are the only ones with the political structure, population and manufacturing capacity to achieve big things.

  5. OH MY GOD - YOU MENA NOT EVERYONE has a voice in their head narrating everything that happens like a story...???

  6. DUDE - YOUR SYSTEM ARE NOT "IMPERFECT" they are collapsing Neo-liberalism, capitalism, the Am3ric4n Empire - its ALL collapsing. It was "imperfect" in the 1990's, you cant even dream of achieving the dizzy heights of imperfect - its in full-scale collapse

  7. I live near the Bosphorus, under the flight path of the planes going from Europe to Turkey and when the lockdown happened the mornings were very noticeably colder. I mean like 5ºC or more colder due to not having the jet trails above us.

  9. “My Laws Of New Technology” Law 1) EVERY new technology allows the worst people in the world to maximise profit and power by destroying humanity - be that ship-building tech, gunpowder, nuclear bombs, prescription pain killers, the internet, social media or AI Law 2) GOOD people will never profit as much as bad people from new tech as they are bound by morals not to destroy humanity Law 3) THE TITANS of any new technology/industry are, therefore, axiomatically evil and the very people who should NOT have control of it Law 4) THEY WILL spend a significant % of their wealth convincing you they are good/cool/socially responsible/caring, and that tech is good, and progress is, by its very definition - a good thing Law 5) THE MORE technologically advanced the technology and the more ubiquitous its adoption, the harder it is to stop them destroying humanity

  10. I HAVE 3 SEPARATE THINGS I have monologue, thoughts and images going on and these are all separate in independent. The thoughts are in words and are the inquisitive part, the monologue is putting the thoughts into a story as if writing a book and the images are separate but can be called up by the thoughts This makes meditation very difficult as I have to occupy all of these - so monologue has to say a mantra, thoughts have to concentrate on the sensation of breathing and image has to imagine a blue sphere or something.

  11. AS A 53 YEAR OLD EX RICH GUY living in a tiny minimalist apartment working only when I feel like it doing only what I want to do - I LOVE watching YouTubers have mid-life-youtube-crisis That moment in life when they realise not EVERYTHING revolves around the YouTube algorithm or the upload schedule. ITS GOOD - ITS HEALTHY - LIFE IS NOT ABOUT WORK

  12. NO I have no concept either - I often wonder how my dog does stuff...??? How does she decide to eat without the words to describe the process I dont have aphantasia though I have very clear and vivid images but they are completely separate to the monologue. In actual fact I have monologue, thoughts and images going on which makes meditation very difficult as I have to occupy all of these - so monologue has to say a mantra, thoughts have to concentrate on the sensation of breathing and image has to imagine a blue sphere or something.

  13. THERE IS A 4TH REASON - AND I BELIEVE THE REAL REASON Everything Trump does is a crazy distraction whilst Elon and the others set about dismantling the structures of government FUNCTIONALLY - breaking them before anyone can stop them. OK - you win in the courts but what good is that if its totally broken? Meanwhile, Trump can fund an army or anything he wants through the "Sovereign Wealth Fund" and Elon turns the country into a techno feudal kingship.
