You know that trope in simulated-world movies where character gets to the edge of the simulation and sees blankness or a computer grid? The future feels like that right now. Especially if you have a strong sense of history. I suspect people bored by in history don’t feel this.

this is one of the many reasons my bet is on aliens. The simulation makes everything so chaotic that our defenses toward too much novelty weaken and nothing seems impossible--and then we make contact.

I feel this and it’s really interesting being with small kids right now because they don’t share this sense of a simulation and it’s edge. It makes me question my own political psycho geography.

How old are your kids? I don't think kids buy into one of the available false consciousnesses necessary for adulthood before age 8-10 or so. Their horizons are too small. I think I started reading headlines of newspapers ~ 10.
