Its normal, just dont forget your spouse birthday

My two pet theories:

Right before you are born, you make every possible decision you are ever going to make, and then your soul chooses the course that is least bad for most gain, like a min-maxer.

Or! Every time you make a decision that kills you, you die! But you soul hops to the reality where you didnt die, because the universe is an infinite dimension holograph of all possible everything, and it really is just about learning and growing

Anecdote time: once upon a time I was a young man working in chem hose. I would get sent all over to do onsight testing and repair with my work mate, we were good friends and druggos lol.

So we got sent to this beautiful majestic place to work. After work we took mushrooms and went to the national park. Fun! It got dark, so we went driving down some farm roads. After some time I decided to stop. We smoked weed, hung around, then after a bit got tired and went home. Sounds normal right?

Next day, couldnt find the weed after work, no big, lets hit that farm road, see it in the day, maybe find it. After some time the road ended… at the resevoir. The weed was there, and so were my tire tracks. 5 feet away from the edge of the reseviour. Seems like oh, we would just have lost the truck and gotten out right? No. It was a sheer wall 20’ to the bottom. We should both be dead, and in that other universe, we are dead…

But if we dont have free will morals dont exist because you arent actually chosing anything, if free will doesnt exist we arent choosing those punishments either. It was all mechanically determined before the first star went supernova and created heavy elements. To quote Pigeon of Mike Tyson Mysteries “whatevers gonna happen, is gonna happen anyways”

I personally believe that free will exists because of the quantum nature of our universe. I think when quntum effects collapse into macro effects that is the universal uncaring impersonal consciousness presenting itself to discreet personalized units of consciousness in a way we can understand and work with. I think the entire universe has consciousness and that when our containers can no longer maintain the biological loci of experience we return to that eternal, ever present, always safe universal consciousness, the source of the sense of identity.

Consciousness does all this because a universe where nothing ‘unpredictable’ happens and there is no ‘other’ to share experience with would be eternal solitary confinement.

Just my thoughts on the matter of free will, obviously un-provable and un-testable in our current state of being.

Yep, your brain percieves stimuli and generates a virtual internal reality that runs with a tiny time delay between the objective reality and your internal subjective simulation of it. So we live in a simulation even if our universe is the objectively ‘real’ one, or we live in a simulation of a simulation.

Your personality may also be a simulation internaly created so that you have a way to ‘justify’ your bodies actions to other entities. Split brain experiments are veeeery interesting.

This is pure conjecture but I sometimes wonder if neuro-divergencies are caused by a fault in the internal simulation via brain chemistry

When ‘let them eat kellogs’ becomes more of a reality

You see, were old poor. Were used to it. You need new poor to really get things going

Hey, I like your cat picture! Yes, prostate cancer is one, but with 14000 urologists in the USA alone we cant say society doesnt care about it

I challenge you to name some problems that only effect men that werent caused by us men in the first place

To touch on the reciting of prayers, they would also use that to time mixing of substances and what little medical procedures they had. Neat!

Sand, water, candles. Each one can be a clock

Dad jokes have no right to be this good

Google is free, Im searching recipies, websites of companies I might invest in, the law in general and pop-culture crap 90% of the time

Seems like a waste of water and energy to ask a highpowered LLM about it. I heard each query on GPT uses 12L of fresh water, seems wastefull when I could just use a basic google

Edit: it is approx .5L of water for 5 to 50 prompts, thanks google!

I am literaly in the middle of this right now. I have innatantive, so my way to be a superstar at work was to just have 3 things going at once, so my focus has somthing to shift to that isnt pointless.

However when my daughter started having medical issues it brought out some latant anxiety issues in myself. Now when my brain switches focus at work I might just have a panic attack instead. So, went and got a diagnosis last week (I was right, innatentive with anxiety) and will be letting wellbutrin have a go at me.

Im actually happier already, though also misserable. Ive been smoking weed for 25 years, now I have to stop (already wanted to stop, this is good) because both drugs bind to the same receptor. No weed gives me insomnia that melatonin pills dont seem to even touch. It hurts but not as much as seeing my wife and kids worry about me.

From one sufferer to another: I am very proud of you for being such a high achiever despite the illness, and for taking the steps to get a diagnosis. I hope Im wrong but I think your real struggle with adhd will begin in retirement. You will need good hobbies to focus on. I think you are capable of navigating a good outcome for yourself and those around you, for what its worth
