SMP Life is Being Drunk -Random Content thread
Politics has one and its fun, so I figured I'd start one here and see how it goes. Obv you should, but are not requried
Even existed before you were born ( inherited from parents)
So then.who are you.
What are you.
The only constant thing, that ties you to you in the old photo existed before you were born.
Humans share about 98-99% of our DNA sequence with chimpanzees. We share a common ancestor.
To say we were once apes is wilder than saying we were once our ten year old selves.
I am I because you are you.
All that said, I only know the subjective ‘I-ness’ that we call the self. Day to day. It exists because saying it’s illusory is based on nothing real as I think I’ve shown above.
We totally confuse words, symbols with reality I guess.
On an oddnote ‘Consciousness arising from matter’ has no basis in reason now that I think of it.
Let’s not even get started on time.
Many of the great philosophers have been concerned with the problem of personal identity.
Philosopher:
Who are you?
Dummy:
I'm me.
Philosopher:
Wrong. You are not who you are
because there is no who for you
to be. Who is an illusion that's
always changing from who you aren't
to who else is there.
Dummy:
Wow!
Who'd've thunk it?

We were not once apes. But we do share a common ancestor.

The Current and previous Bitcoin four year cycles. I drew this last year - when I learned about the four year cycle 'theory'.
This is the fourth since its inception.
Although i got into crypto in 2022, I only learned about this theory last year. This is a failure.
So, I drew it just to see whether it plays out again.
You have those who have been through three and four cycles and claim to know this secret knowledge.
These people would have bought the bottom in 2022. If you think it through, such people only had a sample size of two.
In any case. I am betting everything I have this time. I will get rich or die trying to quote 50 cent.
In reality, conservative - best case scenario, I will turn everything I own into a 4x - 5x. I'm not sure yet whether this would be FU money adjusted for inflation. But someone is being told to FU imho
Worst case scenario? It goes to zero or something else, which is pointless entertaining.
I don't know what I've become. Plotting and scheming. The desire to become financially independent and tell people to FU is a recent phenomenon of mine. Who woke me out of my blissfully ignorant stupor about three years ago. I now see I even breezed through 2008 like nothing happened. Nothing did, to me. I don't know. I blame America.
I will learn to say FU in Hindi first, though. Tu puta madre!
It is best to not watch the news everyday or scroll on X. Firstly, There is no downside. Not being up-to-date on the latest, selected for things-of-interest, randoms quiz you, out of small talk, necessity-chance encounters is not an issue.
"The news" isn't anything resembling an accurate snapshot of reality
The upside is real though.
We were not once apes. But we do share a common ancestor.

Humans are Hominids and part of the Ape superfamily of Primates.
Primates -> Apes -> Hominids -> Humans
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_evol...
---------------
Primates diverged from other mammals about 85 million years ago (mya), in the Late Cretaceous period, with their earliest fossils appearing over 55 mya, during the Paleocene.[11] Primates produced successive clades leading to the ape superfamily, which gave rise to the hominid and the gibbon families; these diverged some 15–20 mya. African and Asian hominids (including orangutans) diverged about 14 mya. Hominins (including the Australopithecine and Panina subtribes) parted from the Gorillini tribe between 8 and 9 mya; Australopithecine (including the extinct biped ancestors of humans) separated from the Pan genus (containing chimpanzees and bonobos) 4–7 mya.[12] The **** genus is evidenced by the appearance of H. habilis over 2 mya,[a] while anatomically modern humans emerged in Africa approximately 300,000 years ago.

Quick summary here to the theosophical tradition:
https://blavatskyblogger.theosophywales....
"H P Blavatsky did not accept that the modern human descended from the Apes by a Darwinian type process of evolution, in which one dominant higher species emerged from several rival groups. Instead she postulated that, as the highest expression of the life force, we are the main line of evolution and an earlier human form preceded the Apes and that the Apes are drop downs from us.
This idea that a lower life form can break away from a higher one runs counter to Darwin’s Theory of Evolution which postulates that higher life forms develop from lower.
Extract from the Secret Doctrine Vol. 2, Page 201
THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE EARTH.
We have meanwhile to follow, as closely as limited space will permit, the gradual evolution of the now truly human species. It is in the suddenly arrested evolution of certain sub-races, and their forced and violent diversion into the purely animal line by artificial cross-breeding, truly analogous to the hybridization, which we have now learned to utilize in the vegetable and animal kingdoms, that we have to look for the origin of the anthropoids.
In these red-haired and hair-covered monsters, the fruit of the unnatural connection between men and animals, the "Lords of Wisdom" did not incarnate, as we see. Thus by a long series of transformations due to unnatural cross-breeding (unnatural "sexual selection"), originated in due course of time the lowest specimens of humanity; while further bestiality and the fruit of their first animal efforts of reproduction begat a species which developed into mammalian apes ages later."
The above is from Anthropogenesis, the secret doctrine.
You may say what is the basis of such an idea. First it is not contradicted by any fact available to historic science. Second the occultists say our ancestors were first purely spiritual, then semi-corporeal, then progressively less and less ethereal. Now we are practically base matter.

Further detail here
"That is the teaching of the Gupta Vidya (the archaic Esoteric Doctrine of the East) that man is not descended and evolved from the apes but that the apes are descended and evolved from man.
Simply put, in the Third Root Race – known as the Lemurian – and prior to the mass incarnation of the Manasaputras into humanity (which turned “animal man” into “human man” since the Manasaputras/Kumaras/Agnishvattas/Solar Pitris etc. are our Higher Egos, our inner spiritual Individuality, the Human Soul), some of the Lemurian men engaged in sexual relations with “huge she-animals,” large monstrous creatures, long since extinct.
Stanza VIII from the Book of Dzyan states: “MONSTERS THEY BRED. A RACE OF CROOKED RED-HAIR-COVERED MONSTERS GOING ON ALL FOURS. A DUMB RACE TO KEEP THE SHAME UNTOLD.” (“The Secret Doctrine” Vol. 2, p. 19)"

How did the AI do? Pics? If they let the AI train on enough DNA-Picture pairs, it might get good at it. If it did get good at it, and it could explain how patterns in the DNA correspond to physical features, it could advance our understanding of what's doing what in the DNA.
It could also help identify the kidnapper in the current big case, if the kidnapper left any DNA at the scene.
There are also scary dystopian implications.

Pretty close. Although, it seems a little suspicious getting the hairstyle that close based on the genome.

It's hard to find what you're looking for when you're looking for something else.

As soon as you arrive, you need to go somewhere else.
Lol. It’s funny in cities, watching people walk in all directions. Where does everyone think they’re going?
So I just stopped. Some guy was standing in one spot playing a sax. I arrived.
As a longsuffering stockholder in the penny stock CytoDyn ( CYDY ), this is getting me as hot as a cold tumor treated with leronlimab.

I have trouble recalling the name of the actor Russell Crowe. I'm thinking of asking him to change it to Tom Cruise. I have no problem remembering Tom Cruise's name.

I once knew a Russell who was a ****, if that's any help.
