If you are looking for something merely countably infinite in something uncountably infinite, then you will never find it — and the reason is that the uncountably infinite is so incomprehensibly vastly larger than the merely countably infinite that your search time would also be infinite.
And that’s pretty trippy.
She’s the only person I’ve seen who actually admits they went insane during Covid. Most who did never recovered and if they did get better, never admitted they were once lost to nuthood It’s so weird that the Covidians still fervently insist there were no lockdowns anywhere and that nothing was different because of Covid, while bleating about how terrible it all was a few seconds later.
I don’t know if therapy works (probably not), but they need some very badly.
What an awesome fucking time capsule. I remember that world; I was about the same age these kids were in 1989. It was so very different than now, in ways that are hard to describe unless you lived it. Younger people cannot believe a world like that truly existed:
But it did. In important ways, it was a lot freer — there was far less surveillance. Kids were allowed to roam, and have their own lives. There was no social media (except BBSes, which few used). I would not want to go back, but this is one of the few examples I’ve ever found of what it felt like to live in that time. I knew kids just like this dude and his friend who did things just like they are doing in the video.
As much as they are considered harmful, I think social media and smartphones are underestimated as a cognitohazard, particularly for women. I saw a dude on Reddit who said the first thing he vets for is the woman’s social media use and addiction as those who are deep into it are so poisoned.
Smartphones should likely be heavily regulated and social media in most forms basically should not exist.
