Simulation - MrsMovesss - Jan 9, 2022

Is it just me or does this world feel like a simulation, I feel like a mindless drone, doing what has been programmed of me; sleep, eat, work, repeat, until you die. The world feels made up and fake to me

What are everyone else's thoughts?

I do not feel that way. Are you perhaps under the influence of some mind-altering substance right now?

I’ve had a couple drinks, but this is something that I think of daily, I’ve always kind of thought that life was a simulation put in place but some sort of other being.

If life was a simulation, would it matter?

Read the work of Nick Bostrom and you'll believe it. He makes a very compelling argument that there is a strong possibility we  live in a simulated reality.

Read about it on wikipedia if you're interested.

maybe we're just stuck in a looped matrix.

Let's say it was. What would you do?

Kick a duck up the arse.

Sometimes when I experience deja vu then yeah. Otherwise no!

Probably not, but I just wanted to hear everyone else’s thoughts

Idk, probably try to go against the “normal”
