I mean, I’ve wanted to talk deep with people, but I realised what I considered talking deep feels stupid talk when you’re not in the zone.

Like, people say they wanna talk about space and stuff, but there’s scientists already doing that, and in a more meaningful way.

Like, I can’t understand what I even want at this point. That feel of talking deep with someone, but when I actually think of talking about it, it sounds like I was high. Like what kinda deep talk can a average guy like me can even have?

    people avoid deep thinking because it makes them uncomfortable

    I have a friend who sends me stuff about living in a simulation. I stopped engaging with them about this because it has absolutely no bearing on anything that could possibly concern me. If it’s true, great; of not, just as great. There is no part about living, or not living, in simulation that makes me uncomfortable; it’s a pointless topic. I indulged them for a while, but I’m done.

      Sim theory is super surface level, there’s not even a single point of discussion that makes it interesting because everything about sim theory lines up with modern religions.

      Sim theory does not move the needle for anything in the slightest

      that isn’t deep thinking, it’s shallow fascination with a fantasy and it’s a though experiment that’s been around 1000s of years.
