Indeed. They'd probably live better lives too. We all, wood.

...instead of being politicians. Too much experience is really bad, as we see watching these ancient white men grapple with modern times.

Can confirm, hate Elon love tesla. He's great at disrupting, massively bad at maintaining and growing in calm times.
Super excited to buy a tesla for Christmas though, honestly the best car rn.

I've learned to trust them, honestly I think they act as my gut check on almost anything. A random, but actually deeply related thought always pops up to shake things up.

I think you can nurture yourself to be that, even far later on. Might need to eat some shrooms a few times, but its possible. I'm going for coo-coo crazy good at the moment.

Apparently I'm a super high functioning adhd, only medicated recently after like 20 years. Although I coped extremely well (did well as engineer), it was so much extra effort. Now that I'm on meds I see how hard my life was before. I would never call high function adhd remission myself..
For example, I was always exhausted and scared of context switching because I knew distractions would ruin my process. Now that I'm medicated there's no fear and in fact I'm very good at multi tasking. At the end of the day I'm not exhaused and defeated like I was before when i was supposedly in "remission".

Thank you, yes exactly. Beyond some rudimentary emergency plans to get the smartest people finding solutions based on what the threat is actually, I don't see any point. Better off focusing on what we can do now to improve before they get here.

I'm scared for all of us. Humanity is going to be focus locked on their known science when aliens come. Going to get sucker punched looking down at our hands.

Lmao sure. How will people react to mini wormholes warping soldiers into their homes? Or how will they feel when the 3rd dimension is removed and we're all suddenly squashed. There's a massive amount of very different possibilities that we can't imagine. Planning for them is stupid, but maybe it's just right for sociology 🤭

Ok, so do we start planning for a wormhole attack? Multi dimensional space time folding? Pure magic, from our point of view if they make it all this way to see us.
The only plan should be to learn about the aliens, when we see them. Making up solvable fantasies now is a fools game.

Ok sure, just don't be shocked when these plans are absolutely useless. At least planning for nukes is based on known variables.

I'm saying they should study subjects with evidence. They're going to base it all off a known unknown, instead of a pure unknown. Whatever they come up with will be shallow and fragile at best.
