Of course not all of it. But the people in the Traffic jam? Irritated because they're going to be late or because they're spending too much time standing still. Sad because the weekend is over? That's because time made it go away. Do you feel you're not enjoying life and time is slipping away? That's right, time makes you feel this way. But does it also make you happy? Would you be less irritated or would you have less regret when time stood still? I don't know.

i think that it’s important to reserve enough space to streets. not to build lanes, but to build cafes and seating banks and trees there. it’s a typical problem of cities that they figure out that there’s not enough space to build trees, bike lanes, etc. after the houses are built. better reserve space first.

this isn't really a showerthought but more of a general opinion, but i'll post it here anyways because i don't know where else to post it. (pls tell me if there's a better community to post it to instead)

Western Europe is facing a massive heat wave, let's name it together

This came to me while being in bed, staring at the ceiling for too long for too little reasons.

Just thought this after the made of worms post.

What are the worms full of? Bacteria. Our gut bacteria is vital so are we eating so they can process it for us or are we eating to feed them?

Lots of these bacteria probably exist without us. We can't exist without them but we do make a very nice house where they can live. So they keep us around.

Hopefully our bacterial overlords won't rise up against us any time soon.

It's tubes all the way down

Let me ask one question: If you had your own world at your disposal to play with it like a god, would you stay aside for eternity, or would you jump in to stir some shit up? When I play SimCity, or Worldbox, or other sandbox, I always get bored and start dropping all sorts of calamities. I'm telling you, he's either going full VR as Donald Trump or maybe Mark Zuckerberg, or he opens dev console and makes plague with transmissibility set to 9999. Except he'd never called it COVID. More like 'Rectal_Intruder_6969'.

Does it take up space in your memory? Good pay me for it being there.

But also dont expect me to build anything new or fix the issues. If you are luck they might come in and give it a fresh coat of all bland colored paint.

According to wikipedia, we have around 86 billion neurons in the brain.

When Truculent got blown up by c4 it shouldn't have torn him to shreds. The explosion should have destroyed all his insides and momentarily expanded his invulnerable skin like a balloon, which should have contracted to a boneless sack of goo. At least that's how I would have done it. Maybe they thought of that and decided cleaning up the mess had more comedic effect.
