Thats a white hole, a big bang, a pocket dimension unto itself.
Thus we live in some kind of... meta-system of universes, probably no real way to transit between them intact, but... destruction begets a new kind of creation, that you can literally never experience, yet it is real, and it also most likely never 'stops'.
Hyperdimensional Matryoshka dolls, all the way down. ... and up.
You've heard of Quantum Immortality... but have you heard of Quantum Silver Tongued Devil?
Quantum Hostage Negotiator?
Quantum Worst Possible Yet Most Persuasive Advice Ever Giver?
I've always found this kind of stuff mostly nonsensical.
... what about building a nano (pico? much much smaller?) scale device that takes advantage of the Casimir effect to say, generate ... actually random numbers, not pseudo random numbers?
... can look like being the best person you can be, for your own sense of morality/justice, for whatever you believe in, for whatever you feel is what, and how, a decent person should be.
Even if someone says that altruism is nonsensical or strictly meaningless/impossible, the fact that somebody even aimed toward it is remarkable nonetheless.
I'm gonna do it, I'm bustin' out the Architect scene:
Neo walks to the door on his left chooses to reject the false dichotomy he has been presented.
The Architect: Humph. Hope, it is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength, and your greatest weakness.
Neo: If I were you, I would hope that we don’t meet again.
I've not had kids, probably never going to, I am at least aware that my model of what a family is supposed to look like is utterly fucked...
But oh dear lord I know that kind of infuriating bullshit, the utter, total disrespect.
Me just reading that story gives me half a mind to perform an unauthorized dental procedure with a blunt object on an uninformed patient, goddamnit...
But, again, this is why I at the very least know that I am not currently ready for taking on responsibilities that... would greatly anger me if they were ... interfered with, disrespected, belittled, etc.
I got a degree in econ, my dumbfuck dad ruined his finances with booze and duis, oh and then apparently, after i ghosted them...
... he retired and bought a fucking house at the actual peak of the housing market.
He raised me on Limbaugh, you see, piqued my interest enough that I went on to study econ. and poli sci.
... and learn that near everything a dittohead believes is fundamentally wrong, misconstrued, or short sighted and lacking the ability to consider systemic complexity.
Oh well. I tried to give him advice, he never listened, despite forcing his "advice" onto me... my career was in database analytics and management, I worked for a world class import export company, wrote software, produced the top level reports for C Suite.
But uh, nope, nope. Dad knows economy better than me.
... At this point, I'm still genuienly planning on taking a sledgehammer to his gravestone, after he dies.
Seeing as I basically no longer consider MAGATs to be truly sentient, much less sapient:
She was going to go super deep into the research route until she learned she was violently allergic to the rats then life just kinda happened from there.
That's the real tragedy here, damn, that fucking sucks.
EDIT:
Uh, anyway, yeah I'm an autist too, don't have a degree in psych or pharma, but I do have pattern recognition, curiosity, analytical skills... and a whole fuckton of (c)PTSD from my own truly astoundingly dysfunctional family.
As in: I ghosted them / went no contact with them so hard that they very probably think I am dead.
Even the best-behaved children can be difficult and challenging at times. But oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) includes a frequent and ongoing pattern of anger, irritability, arguing and defiance toward parents and other authority figures. ODD also includes being spiteful and seeking revenge, a behavior called vindictiveness.
These emotional and behavioral issues cause serious problems with family life, social activities, school and work. But as a parent, you don't have to try to manage a child with ODD alone. Your health care provider, a mental health professional and a child development expert can help.
These are adults with an adult version of a pathological vindictiveness that is generally seen in 'problem children'.
Yeah I mean, at this point, I can very easily see someone saying that either very genuienly, or very sarcastically.
Hence why I asked / phrased it as a two pronged response.
Glad to know you were indeed doing a bit, but uh yeah, I'm autistic enough that I just ask, because I have encountered a large number of people who would just ssy things like that, entirely seriously.
We will get movies designed as either patriotic/honorable, wildly unrealistic, aspirational lifestyle glamorization ... pure cope/hopium, saccharine, hero/success fantasies for adult children to live vicariously through... and warrior hero stories where the plot is incited by external or seditious threats.
That's very roughly what happened to German cinema when the Nazis took over.
We will just have machines making the slop, instead of demented sycophants.
... there won't be any money for things that cause people to maybe actually think!
You want to program compliance and shame into people, not curiosity, not disobedience.
Fight Club was not an initial success, and it largely tricked people via its marketing, into making people think it was going to be something closer to Rocky, but edgier... than a psycho-social critique of basically all of society.
It is entirely within Scouts character to just... "yo, knucklehead, scoot over", and then just put on his headset when the screaming resumes.
Though, being from Boston, and being exceptionally prideful... that may cause some issues on the NYC subway.
