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.

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.

Agreed. Reality feels thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread
