I finally watched it
It also kinda makes me feel humbled to be in the one of the first human batches. it's tempting to think we might be a generation that rose from ashes of some previous catastrophe which wiped the planet out. BUT, we seem to know this planet's history more or less precisely, that's actually wizardry if you ask me, but tracking down how the story of this planet went back to deep hadean is incredible, even if we're off in many things. ANYHOW, the point is, we are the first batch of humans. right now we're sitting on weapons way too advanced for our monke brains, but nukes won't be enough to cause a big reset and reinvent the wheel, the idea of god entities coming back home after having been one with the universe is such a vibe, but it also might be our primitive understanding of it. the turtle boy waters it down to simple life and gods, how right he is here, but the truth is it's impossible to imagine the state of mind of whatever comes next. i like to think of myself i'd like to be like the old woman from this vid or the snake one but maybe it's more bonkers to BE those entities and screw those primitive apes.
whatever that is, feels nice to just be and then perish in no time
but makes wonder how that NEXT THAT COMES would actually be like. as in Einstein's sticks and stones (this one time it might actually be his real quote even?) or maybe it would be a leap like in this video. the world collapsed but even early on you don't need to waste billions of years on evolution, you start as a god anyway and find remains of great technology, as the old woman would put it, born long before its time. kinda fitting. w
i've heard somewhere that human imagination is limited by our language and it kinda makes sense. we are very capable of understanding those abstract concepts but it cuts on thinking - what is that? what does it do? what feeling does it give of? some parts of languages are untranslatable and knowing them means you can experiance more concepts. and the turtle boi uses it very well. i don't fucking know what being all the particles that's ever been feels like but i can sit and think uh oh grand cosmic shit that wants to come back home to simple life, bored of being gods
and speaking of simple life, i had a thought in the middle - bioengineering and cybernetics are so developed right now it's probably gonna kill sport in few generations to come. like, come on, why compete over bicep strength when you can have a robo arm that's reliable and way better? bit saddening, that's why, again, i'm so glad to firsly be the first humanity project and to be a goddamn ball of meat, maybe that meat is flimsy at times BUT IT IS ME AND I CAN USE IT FULLY BEFORE I DIE.
I have a big fever now and half those sentence might make no sense sorry
