It's about how to spoil a domain name...
Politically, technologically, socially — in every sense — we are heading toward extremes that lack depth but progress at dizzying speed.
As if the pressure individuals put on themselves weren’t enough, this whirlwind of sociological change leaves no time to even process what’s happening.

And let’s assume you’re aware of everything happening around you.
This brings us to our next point: You realize something isn’t right in your life.
Changing something, even taking a single step toward change, requires significantly more energy than you might expect. Even just making the decision to change is itself a burden.
Because change inevitably pushes you outside your comfort zone. And often, it’s impossible to predict the outcomes of this change.

Digital technology may turn out to be the harshest trick this era will play on us.
Everyone has their own opinion about this topic, so let me share mine as well.
If your job involves using a computer, soon enough a better, faster, and cheaper version of you will replace you.
Yes, I’m tired of repeating this too, but the object you see in the mirror is closer than it appears… (a shout-out to Jurassic Park)

Most of us are having difficulty naming the era we live in. I’ll try to explain the situation briefly.
Of course, I’m directing this primarily to those whose awareness is somewhat higher than most.
Let’s take a look at a few new concepts our age has given us

Scientists, with “nothing better to do,” significantly reduce a mouse’s dopamine levels through chemical and/or genetic methods. Thus, the mouse loses the motivating force of “reward expectation.”
The result? The mouse can’t be bothered to eat the cheese right in front of it and ends up starving to death.
We have entered the final 25 years in which everything will descend into utter chaos. May it be favorable for all of us.
Let’s take a look at where we stand globally, calling it the “Story so far.”

The most defining feature of being an alcoholic comes from drinking regularly. To avoid falling into this situation, I drink at irregular times, morning and evening. I feel at ease.

Are you proud of your empathy skills? I have some bad news for you; the validation of your empathy is still done according to your own truths. Thinking otherwise, claiming it’s not limited by your subjective truths, is quite difficult.

A beloved elder of mine sent this message as a comment on a podcast in a WhatsApp group recently:
“Another civilization has launched numerous simulations in search of a solution that will last forever, and we are inside one of them.”
At first, it’s a difficult comment to digest; it takes effort to believe, to accept this idea.
Once we stop considering ourselves the center of the world, even this thought becomes a plausible scenario.
Let’s assume we are living in a simulation and the purpose of this simulation is to find a formula that extends life.
Looking at the general trend, the simulation seems to be working towards its intended goal. Everyone is trying to extend their life, exploring all possible means. We advance technology and attempt to decode our DNA.
The science fiction we watch (which has always guided science and technology) works to convince us of the possibility, perhaps even motivating us to think along these lines.
The era we live in, with rapid technological advancements, everything accelerating at an incredible pace, all moving towards chaos… I’m not saying it’s an exception, but we must acknowledge that we’re not living in normal times.
Assuming for a moment that this theory is true, everyone suddenly realizes they are lab rats. If you found out this was real and you were just an actor in the simulation, what would you do?
Here comes my favorite part; I would keep doing whatever I am doing right now. Since the “Grand Goal” doesn’t matter much to me, I would continue to do what is expected of me as an actor, bound by the possibilities of “free will.”
We shouldn’t worry too much about it.
The genie from the magic lamp asked you: “What do you want?”
If you hesitate even when answering your first wish, you are probably at an age where you have learned that everything you wish for will have some consequences, or you have some experiences.
