Has Anyone taken this weird internet test?

Just found out that the guy behind this website has a YouTube channel.

Looks interesting.
he sounds like he thinks hes smarter and better than others because he reads nietzsche and avoids porn and his attention-span is longer than a goldfish's (a tiktok user's)

i watched his video on touching grass for a couple of minutes but stopped when he mentioned magic and explained how manmade life is worse than natural life because of seasons; i like how he calls the way that people interact with nature "switching on the nature channel"

on the "codex" part of the website i like the metaphor of the world wide web being woven by a spider to trap victims
 
There's nothing written on mine *sigh*

The Moloch description is harrowing.
I once had this sort of epiphany that we would end up destroying the world through dope and entertainment. Arms race to amuse ourselves, progression of beer to wine to liquor, opium to heroin to fentanyl, coca to cocaine to crack, plays to books to TV to vidya, from hunger to abundance to hyperabundance of artificial foods, ever stronger ways to cause dysfunction, misery, and chaos. It's that (pursuit of pleasure) that would ruin the place, not a nuclear arms race or environmental catastrophe or war.

There's a similar wanky vibe with Alain de Botton, I think his written books are really good but his School of Life videos are wanky and the man himself is an absolute wanker. Writing on issues about how we make our own unhappiness, especially in the modern world.
 
TFW you see you spent as much time on the past two weeks on games as a full-time job (and it had to have been even higher the two months before then).

Part of what I started to get out of books was that you can read a bunch of them in the time (total hours wise) it takes to beat one open world game, and they have much more meaningful stories and more diverse stories and settings. I've seen that in the time I applied over two weeks, I could well have read four books. But it wasn't satisfying me, really, at least not anymore.
