Date: January 23rd, 2026 2:55 PM Author: Total Technology Death nothing seems 'real' anymore
it's hard to put into words, but the feeling is becoming stronger and stronger as time goes on. i think that part of it is me getting older, but i get the impression that other people are feeling it too |

Date: January 23rd, 2026 3:04 PM Author: Total Technology Death everything feels Synthetic. even when you're entirely offline and irl, it still all feels surreal and fake
nothing feels magical. nothing feels 'open.' the future feels deterministic rather than a shared, ongoing story that you and everyone else are participating in together
like i said, part of it (i think) is me getting older. but i really get the sense from other people, even younger people, that they feel the same way too |

it has become less than Life. it has become Content |

Date: January 23rd, 2026 3:06 PM Author: Consuela i use two methods to ground myself:
(1) recursive political/cultural predictions; i make predictions about the future and to the extent they turn out to be wrong, i update my worldview
(2) phenomenological living, i.e. i trust my senses and ground authority much more within myself than before
people who don't think about how to ground themselves are really flailing |

Date: January 23rd, 2026 3:50 PM Author: '"'"'"''" Went to the "doctor's" office for a physical today.
The doctor doesn't bother to see patients. You only get to see a nurse pracitioner who doesn't have a medical degree.
The nurse assistant taking my vitals barely spoke English and I couldn't understand her.
The phlebotomist taking my blood barely spoke English, but I could understand her slightly better.
No one will call to follow up with any results.
It's weird how things used to just work well in America. |
