I grew up on shows that had kids go back in time to ww2, they had them leave all their devices and modern stuff back home and were forced to cut their hair, eat ww2 rations, work on a farm.

There were shows where kids went on to sort out their own toys, hoarding basically and one show to help discipline their loud and rude kids.

What I'm saying is that we need these type of shows back, send the kids away with no technology and let them use their own initiative.

There are types of stories like this back in the day of folk tales which was even before the advent of books and other methods of written records. Some folk tale stories were told back in the day was meant to scare children into behaving. Fables also exist with a moral lesson in the end.

There are even novels back in the day that the overall premise is that a badly behaved protagonist tends to get punished or suffer the consequences throughout the story with "The Adventures of Pinocchio" as a notable example.

The original versions of well known stories were considered "dark" and "grim" by today's standards.

Kids are always known to pretty much behave badly even back before technology is invented which is the reason why these stories are made. I'd say we need to teach them folktales, fables, and other classic original stories in schools.
 
Did you know? Those who work nights get more benefit when we spring forward, because they lose one hour of work. But when we fall back, they not only have one extra hour of work, but also have to deal with an earlier sunset.
 
The birbs in my neighborhood are extra chatty today 🐦🐦🐦 one of them sounded entitled, one was being really rude lol and some are blabbing everyone's secrets 😂
 
i don't believe in the "the universe/world is a simulation" theory, because of these reasons:

  1. there wouldn't be enough data, coding, memory, etc. to even simulate the whole universe, and even if there were, it'd be enough to destroy the average computer, and you know how we could never simulate the human brain with a computer and we'd need a computer more complex than the average human brain? we'd need a computer more complex than THE UNIVERSE ITSELF TO EVEN SIMULATE THE WHOLE UNIVERSE!
  2. what being/programmer/person existed before us and would've cared enough to simulate all of human/humanoid/animal/universal/planetary evolution from the past 100,000 years? that'd eventually become tiring and boring!
  3. even if the universe were a simulation, it'd probably only simulate to whatever programmer our "observable" universe is
  4. since the universe is constantly expanding with new planets, stars, nebulae, galaxies, black holes, etc. the "supercomputer" would probably have to constantly be updated and the computer would have to handle the updates enough for it not to crash and cause a potential "end of the universe"
btw, anyone who argues that some ancient being did this, i will not reply or try to argue w/you so don't be surprised if i don't end up responding to your weird tinfoil hat bullcrap
 
Daylight saving times....

How i feel messed up for a few days and feel like I'm running backwards..


On a random note... is it possible to wish you had everything yet have nothing?
 
What I like about creating and designing characters is that I get to research and be inspired about the philosophy behind the character designs.

Plus, i get to experiment in the ways of handling the designs for specific types of characters and trying to nail it.

1. That's assuming the simulation is made by humans on human made computers with human made code.. for all we know there could be a far, far more advanced race that actually has the technology to simulate an entire reality/universe

2. Have you ever played The Sims?? Imagine playing a version of that that is millions of times more complex. Sounds fun to me 👀 Or maybe this is more in the name of science, maybe "they" are running millions of simulations, for whatever reason.

4. Maybe there wouldn't need to be updates at all though, considering this would be simulated on extremely advanced technology.. Or who knows, maybe a crash from an update, or a crash from no update = the heat death of the universe, as a feature

With all that said, I don't know if I actually believe the universe is a simulation or not. It probably isn't a simulation, it's just fun to think about
