The cutoff should be about 50 million dollars per person. You can secure a luxurious lifestyle from that for 30 years and invest / start any kind of business. More money only serves as a tool for power and securing unfair advantages. Reality isnt this simple of course, but in principle everyone should be taxed so you cant have more than 50 mill. Or atleast tax it very heavily and if you still manage to accumulate more, good for you.

Good insight. Similar in nature to the collapse of free will / no free will duality, no? You could say laziness doesnt exist either, no? Maybe we could write a whole list. But i dont spend much time observing this kind of insights nowadays.

Searching on youtube is the worst. It’ll give you 3-5 videos that it deems most fitting and then the rest is slop by the algorythm. I dont think AI is solely responsible for it, because in my mind shittification started when they first declared that 90% of the users only click on the first 3 search results. But then AI finished the job for sure.

I have been trying to write a book for quite a while now, but after reworking the core concept (and the whole book with it) three times now im giving it a rest. I might try my hand at writing fiction, but i never saw myself as someone who would write fiction books. My logic is that you can actually explore ideas, ask questions, and flesh out concepts through storytelling and world building quite well.

I just saw the ghost story clip from this conversation. It gave me chills. Im about to listen to the full convo now, i hope its good!

I thought Leo would announce the european retreat first before you would apply for it… Thats a good example how proactive people get shit done. I snoozed and loosed. (Lost would not rhyme)

Very cool to hear about this. I'll wait for an european retreat. It would be very well welcomed here Leo!

Im sorry i wasn't around lately and i completely forgot about this too. Have you guys met up then ?

Definitely do exercise, if you can. You dont need to do much first. HIIT training is not necessary. Get a couple of dumbbells - you dont need heavy weights. For cardio an exercise bike is super simple, no hassle - in 15 minutes you can burn 150 calories and you can be done. Walking is the best if you can. And in my opinion once you got into it, body weight training trumps weight training every time. If you like reading, i recommend this book: Convict Conditioning - Paul "Coach" Wade

Thats capitalism for you. Some people have to be exploited - by design. And by some people i mean the global south. After you established proper exploitation at home of course. The Great British Empire, everyone: "As of 2024–2025, over 14 million people (approximately one in six households) in the UK face food insecurity due to lack of money, with 27% of children growing up in insecure households, according to Trussell Trust data and reporting by the BBC. This represents a significant rise from 2022, with millions suffering from reduced food intake, hunger, or reliance on charitable food providers."

The whiplash of a kangaroo tail.

@Natasha Tori Maru Damn i just spent like 30 minutes articulating an answer to a post and then you closed it before i could submit my reply. LOL (I assume it was you)

Im thinking about how future governments would look like. I think putting a select number of people in positions of power like we do today is outdated and has no place in the future of governance. The focus should be on policies and it should be handled much more like we do science. People would have more say in whats happening in the world. This requires ordinary people to be more involved in politics. The job of politicians would be to work with scientists, discuss policies and communicate them towards the people. You would think this is how our current system is supposed to work as well... Anyway, i dont think im doing a good job explaining my vision here.

Even your voice sounds Aussie. Or maybe its the intonation i dont know, but im satisfied.

Crikey, send some vegemite as well and she will be apples!
