What's your Favorite movie and why?
Mines probably Last of the Mohicans because it's amazing.

Severance is great, but it gets one thing weirdly wrong.
(Very mild) Spoilers for season 1 of Severance ahead. First, if you haven't seen Severance, I recommend it! Bookmark this, go watch season 1, form your own opinions, and come back to chat. Ok, people who have context for what I'm about to say, read on!... Who's read Too Like the Lightning / Seven Surrenders?
I just finished both and would love to talk about the ideas. eg: the vision of partial utopia the kinkiness of metaphysics all the stuff about gender forgiveness views on war and its inevitability some of the specific religious/metaphysic ideas I found it extremely good,... future you love We are your friends
Aliens arrive and they are so evolved they lead us to being an amazing thriving world. We are your friends. The joy increases and ecosystems thrive and we sing and dance in the walk streets.... Sci fi futures, developmental futures

I feel tension around this inevitable happening and had an insight that since we are moving toward lower costs, this could help usher in Universal Basic Income, a world where we don’t need to worry about how much we are making anyways. Does this make sense? It’s longterm though and there’s still a current today ouch to it all.
I know right?? Similar for me, but with my brothers. They got hooked on The Next Generation and I happily went along on the ride.

super cool. i’m grateful. I watched The Next Generation with my dad growing up and I’m so impressed with it’s vision and values. The rest of the Star Trek stuff never hooked me quite as much, and my guess is it’s because it didn’t have that same visionary quality—so many things... benefits of not valuing paying more for quality services? .
