i truly don't know what the title was, but when i was probably about 14 my dad heard i was getting into writing. he gave me a little book he said my uncle had written some time ago. no idea if it was published anywhere, but it told this story about a robot/cyborg guy questioning his life and searching for meaning. i totally forgot about it until this point but it really inspired me back then.

A really interesting essay I saved a while ago about the body, our external environment, and thinking about simulations. my favorite part discusses an experiment "in which a [gold fish] is given a “fish operated vehicle” to navigate terrestrial environment essentially escaping from its ocean universe and ... a connectome of [a worm] uploaded to and controlling a Lego Mindstorms robot body"

maybe not radical honesty, but like.. just living. like, twirling strangers in the dance hall because it feels right and skipping down the grocery aisles and sitting down and writing for yourself in public and having fancy ginger beer for breakfast and talking unabashedly. yknow??? maybe this is common sense but i’ve found peace again
