Brain Wave #15: This could be a weird superpower

 Brain Wave #15: This could be a weird superpower

I be writing this shit at work bruh. Lemme start off by saying that whenever I say shit like "I was talking to my friend about..." I refer to one particular friend most of the times, you will see him in the comments of the last and some other entries. (Only in Blogger, once the website is up, you'll have no idea what I'm talking about).

Anyway, I was talking to my friend about the previous blog entry how it's AI can get to a kinda scary level of intelligence, we'll live in the matrix etc. and to myself I thought "well technically dying would be a way to escape said 'matrix'" and yeah  technically it is, I certainly do not incite people to go away, but yk if you don't take this idea so seriously and you actually like living, in a sense the "matrix" is kinda treating you well. Unlike the movie, my school of thought was: would our perception of the world change if we were born in different circumstances? Holy cannoli I swear I'm trying not to get political...
Say you were still the same jizz that won the race of life and instead of being born as you are, you were born extremely rich, or extremely poor, or even on the other side of the world, whatever the fuck, just take everything in your life and make it the opposite. My question is: would you still have your same personal intrinsic beliefs? Most likely not in my opinion, like of course you're born in a completely different atmosphere than the one you're in right now, but how different would you be from your current self? Like how much do extrinsic values really make a difference in people's opinion development? Again, as always I don't have all the answers, just a lot of questions :3 but y'know, it's definitely different for everyone, there are people out there who would have a completely different mindset if they played a different sport, and if you told them that they might take it positively; on the other hand there is people out there who would claim to kill themselves if they were born a different race, which is just straight up stupid as they would never be able to know their previous life, but it would be for sure be interesting to see how would that turn out.
One thing in particular I wanted to focus into is this general (semi-political) idea I've been thinking about: I wonder how someone, even myself, would be affected by this abstract approach to the "matrix", I mean how would someone like me be affected by knowing that there is great powers out there that control the world with me being powerless against it, but it simply affects me personally in a different way so I should care more or less. I really don't know and I just think that if I was born spoiled rich, I would still give a thought to how the world is being affected by these great powers, yet I'm getting "treated well" by them, then I shouldn't be bothered. So yeah, what I mean is that me as jizz I would develop to become a person with somewhat similar ideas to the ones I have right now without living in a gynormous villa in an island I own on the other side of the planet.
Going back to the whole "logistics" of it all, I think I would like to contradict myself as well, because y'know I'm just arguing with myself like a crazy person on here; regardless, what I'm trying to get to is that probably, scientifically speaking, everything that I said about a completely flipped life is wrong. I mean yeah even if you're the same jizz, there are infinite possible universes out there, therefore infinite outcomes for what person you become, even by the slightest deviation, so you're most likely to be a completely different person than what you are right now. Thank you to my high school physics teacher who taught us about how we have a infinitesimally small chance to be born exactly how we are, thermodynamically speaking. So there's something to cheer up about, you're unique and all your thoughts are unique, so you should consider the intrinsic value of all that lmao.

I'm gonna go on such a stupidly large tangent now, you have no idea.
I fucking love the singer Yerin Baek, her songs are beautiful and she's gorgeous! I've started listening semi-recently beacuse...I will not get into this rabbit hole actually, not going on a tangent^2. Anyway, sometimes I wonder what it would feel like to meet someone like her in real life, I don't know: walking on the street, in a coffee shop, or even in a music store or something. Y'know I will not shut the fuck up and tell her how much I love her music, what it means to me, I'd like to go to one of her concerts, and whatnot. she has nearly a million monthly listeners on Spotify at the moment, and I'm guessing many more back when her most popular albums came out, I'm just trying to say that she's got a pretty big following, even though I don't see her much on social media but that might just be me living in my own bubble. What I would like to focus on is the individual effect she has on people with her music (obviously I'm using her as an example, it could be any celebrity) and even her own experience with her music: of course she wrote all her songs based on her own life and stuff, but y'know for me personally I would tell her that some of her songs that she made like "Berlin" for example (this is starting to sound like a huge plug, and I mean...yeah because I love her songs, but also I swear it's just and example) it's totally based off her own experiences and I would definitely never be able to understand the emotions that she put in that songs, as well as she won't be able to understand the emotions I feel while listening to it, same for every person who has listened to it. Which is why, now that I'm reflecting on it, if I do get to chance to meet her, I won't start talking about why in particular I liked one song because it made me feel a certain way, because her experience of making that song and everyone else's perspective would be different. What I'm trying to say is that regardless of everything, we are all connected as Yerin fans: simply because we all...feel emotions?

Well fucking done to me, I just proved that people feel emotions, isn't that great...But you get what I'm getting to, even though we all have different opinions and schools of thought, there is something connecting us all, which is the emotion that we feel towards something: again this could be linked to anything and show connection between all people.
Basically the reason why I went on such a tangent is simply because I'm trying to talk about how such different people across the world, no matter their background, no matter the way they think or act, they can all be connected through emotions that they put into a shared interest. And I just think it's cool to be honest.

Holy shit look at this guy ramble on so much (I am not beating the schizo allegations). Again, similarly to the last one, I really hope that people understand what I'm talking about, and I wouldn't really blame you if you didn't.

Good bai, poposwag
