My name is his, my last name means he who supplants.

I do not feel I am god, nor that I am Jesus. I just want to be. Since 8 I wanted to be a buddhist. At my age now, I just want to find meaning in the madness I witness.

The only meaning seems simple, a stoic life. An ancient philosophy, far beyond mine. I regularly use weed and it's how I was allowed time to meditate. I felt i could control my thoughts finally, and all I see is to be kind.

Now my dependency is ending, for I have found what I want to do. I want to help people, the only thing I wanted as a child. I was just too afraid.

I regularly drink, eat and sleep. I am happy with my life and this is not ego, narcissism, or anything. I feel shame, for I feel unworthy, incapable. The only thing I have is my name, my part in the script the world orients.

An act most heathenous and self righteous.

I appreciate your input. As I know these things and it is nice to reflect and put these thoughts to writing. It is why I asked here, only social forum I can see genuine interactions.

I do not feel I am god, or Jesus. I am me. Think more the eastern philosophy of upbringing. How you raise someone, with a set of expectations of beliefs and ideas. Eventually someone will roll the dice, in the right storm to form. Every person is unique for this very reason. It's why I fear, I do not want to forfeit my life, my comforts, for this. I am content, however I find it inexcusable to take my wants over those of the ones I encounter.

Im glad :)

Often times i see folks criticizing Korra before even watching it.

I think Avatar was right.

That's also what Korra is.

Simpsons did it first! In an episode the rich and smart were sent on a ship as the earth is ending. Thought the smart folks will just be replaced by AI at this point. Once it becomes a reliable repository for knowledge - meaning no 'need' for ~~fart smellas~~ smart fellas.

The conclusion of such an approach is even broached by Wall-E, disney of all folks.

It's to the point i believe myself the second coming. Rapture always perplexed me.

Lincolnwood Centennial Park just outside of chicago. My fiancée and I walked a couple miles down after water shutoff impacted our plans for olive garden.

Steak and shake was a very rewarding meal for our trek.

If you think technology isnt analogous with socio-political development then you have definitely missed a huge point in the tech-sphere.

Technology is not your friend. It will consume you, destroy you, and ultimately replace you. Not in a philosophical way, but rather literal sadly.

It's not a new thought, decades old.

If you do not want to be aware, please close your eyes. Life will eventually force them awake.

Skooma peddlers in my lemmy instance?!

Bo Burnham is a comedy/parody song writer. In my experience the Katy Perry song parody "Kill Yourself" is his rise to fame.

By that same reasoning neither should Uber. It's just a convenience of not having to fill it out manually.

The actual protections that have been actively worked to be dismantled constantly.

Yes they voted for him. The video game plot is irrelevant, they just talked about directing the people's consciousness by censoring and selectively allowing information. The same thing most federated social networks are actively trying to escape, the algorithm.

In the game an AI chose what was right and wrong, creating context in a desirable light. Whether or not this article is right, it is a very real thing that is going on in the world. Not with AI, but any social media platform can skew their platform algorithms to alter what is in the populace's consciousness.

The same way TV has been used for decades.
