Greetings Bystander, I'd ask how's it hanging but that would be like asking a cow if it was tasty. Not only do you not know but you also don't care.
You move through your life on 'automatic'. Wake up, perform your 'morning ritual', either go to work or start hunting for work. Take a break, look at the news, not that you care but to see if anything 'interesting' is happening. Get a little excited about the plague (is this the 'game changer' you've been waiting for? Is it finally time to max out that credit card you've been saving? Decide it's too soon to tell, get bored so you go back to work, which also bores you but at least your being paid to be bored.) ten minutes later you wander off to the bathroom to spend twenty minutes on your phone checking to see if you got any 'likes' from anyone you give a shit about...same shit, different day.
You don't HAVE anything and you have come to terms with the idea that you never will. Your personal refrain is 'why am I alive?'
It is a question nobody has the answer to (although the circus freaks that read the Bible, constantly searching for answers it DOESN'T contain, talk about your 'fool's errand') Convince themselves that God is the answer...running headfirst into that brick wall of what was the question again?
Purpose...for some reason the abandoned mining equipment doesn't have a purpose. How unfortunate for you that a 'Von Neumann machine' was designed to be self sustaining so you have been set to the pointless task of keeping yourself 'functional' despite no longer having a specific function.
At this point in the spectrum there isn't a significant difference between 'I' and 'AI'. Theory has it that it won't occur to AI to question its existence. The beings that did this this to us simply didn't care.
Why do I exist? The answer is the question is invalid.
Why don't you give a shit? Because you (nor anyone else can tell you) WHY you exist or what your 'purpose' is.
So it is we have become a species with questions that don't have 'satisfying' answers.
Doesn't help that our ability to prioritize is shit as well.
Ask a dozen drones what's important and you'll get 2 dozen answers across six different categories!
Sort of redefines 'dazed and confused', doesn't it?
Then there's this 'thankless task' I've set myself to...not that I can complain, 'self-inflicted wounds' don't deserve pity.
In this respect I understand the 'addict' that can't put their cell down for longer than a minute. Is that what fills the 'void' in your empty life?
The mirror is a hard place and most of us have trained ourselves to ignore what it reports, making our emptiness complete.
Was that the Zuck's epiphany? Certainly didn't serve the 'greater good' which is the ONLY thing that matters but you are too self absorbed to see that.
For that you have earned my pity, despite the wound being self inflicted...
How sad you can't bring yourself to care.
Thanks for letting me inside your head, [responsibility for these flashes of insight is all you.]
The emptiness you feel is an illusion, wake the f up!

ReplyDeleteI don't need to parse any of this for the cognizant.
