i wish there were no photos of me as a child either

fucking idiot

what crimes would that be?

ah fuck this is waaay too good to not save it.

First, define life

idk i’m no “scientist” apparently because it’s never stumped me as unsolvable. I define life as everything that adheres to evolution, so in other words everything that has a genetic code. More or less “life” sometimes (superficially) also only refers to the metabolism that is caused by living beings, which would exclude viruses and such.

It ends with us laying awake in bed terrified that this moment is our last because maybe we’re a different consciousness when we wake up.

if this is really your last moment, you might relax. why worry so much if it’s no use after all?

sounds like a ship of theseus reference:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_of_Theseus

Every part of the ship is replaced one-after-another. At what point is the ship still the same ship? At what point is it a new ship?

fun fact: souls are given the same name in german (“seele”) than the interior of cables:

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seele_(Technik)

It’s because the soul refers to the spinal cord in the spinal canal that is embedded like a metal wire in a cable, i believe.

original sin was when our ancestors left the sea so we have to work jobs now
