Hear you buddy…
Good synopsis. I happen to like very much the age we live in. Information is free and plentiful, we live like kings with our comfy mattresses and food that is prepared for us. Even if we want to cook ourselves, we can go to the store and get nearly anything.
I think the only thing I crave that has not happened yet is uploading information to the mind.
y would u crave that
it's going to render human ingenuity, innovation, and desire to overcome meaningless. Literally would be like giving a squirrel a room with a thousand nuts, water, and a comfy nest
u think that's right my man? u don't come of that way. Then again, you might mean this purely from an intellectual empowerment standpoint, I just think that's a slippery slope
If you think that’s weird, you should research escapism
haven't been on here in a while but one thing that's weird is that you can just message random people out of no where. I'm not sure if anyone else does this but sometimes I just send random people a message out of no where and see if they will respond. like just yesterday I sent this musician a message on his Reddit account and then he got back to me and we talked a bit, not much but a bit, that is just an interesting dynamic that wouldn't have existed a while back.
Also OP this is not some new revelation, people have been feeling this way definitely at least since Fight Club came out. Your post makes it seem like you just saw Fight Club for the first time lol. The problem is that there are no solutions to the problem. If we are going to also make a The Matrix analogy, there is no red pill to take.
Fight Club, a great book and movie, borrowed a lot from Nietzsche:
All the technology (cars, phones, etc.) and social changes (office lifestyle, nebulous topics, lab food, etc.) shouldn't be a concern because despite all of those we still share the same brain as our ancestors. We strive to have relationships, we strive towards some goals and we strive to minimize our suffering. Everything else is just accessories or changes which we adopted because it helps us to reach better those 3 things
Really, life is about biological fitness:
”Fitness (often denoted
or ω in population genetics models) is the quantitative representation of individual reproductive success. It is also equal to the average contribution to the gene pool of the next generation, made by the same individuals of the specified genotype or phenotype. Fitness can be defined either with respect to a genotype or to a phenotype in a given environment or time. The fitness of a genotype is manifested through its phenotype, which is also affected by the developmental environment. The fitness of a given phenotype can also be different in different selective environments.”

>we strive to minimize our suffering
This is a lot easier today, so easy it's in fact it's addicting and destructive...
yeah fuck this i'm going to buy a 40ft yacht and sail around spearfishing endangered marine life. subscribe to my patreon
Delete your social media, it’s just not a natural part of human life. I recently just deleted my Snapchat, all I have now are Facebook and LinkedIn. I’m really glad I took this step and deleted the Snap, just realized I was spending more time looking at the ‘news’ tab (which is just thots shaking their asses and wearing skintight yoga pants at the gym)
anyone I care to keep in touch with I do via calling / FaceTiming / messenger / WhatsApp / iMessage
social media implicitly forced self comparisons vs others constantly in very unhealthy ways. Not to mention TikTok / Snap / IG are basically soft core porn by this point, that’s genuinely not great for the psyche
