It is up to us to protect those children. That is how god intervenes. Suffering isn’t without origin. Understanding those origins prepares us to avoid those pains in the future. Humanity is nothing without hard lessons. Like our own children, we can guide them but ultimately their life choices are their own.

@JonnaMargaux @r0ck3t23 @elonmusk @grok Keep your god to yourself. So many countless little children died miserable deaths and continue to die while your god watched and did nothing for them. This is proof your god does not care, incompetent or does not exist.

Elon Musk just measured your existence by how many times your atoms have been inside a dying star. Musk: “How many times have your atoms been at the center of a star? I think it’s like on average three or four times.” Every atom in your body has already survived the core of a star. Multiple times. Crushed under pressures that would flatten planets. Superheated to millions of degrees. Blown apart in explosions so violent they forged new elements. Then gravity pulled those scattered pieces back together. New stars formed. And the cycle repeated. For 13.8 billion years, your atoms have been fuel for the most violent process in the universe. And they are not done. Musk: “In terms of existence as measured by the number of times your atoms will be at the center of a star, we seem to be roughly halfway.” Halfway. Your atoms have been through the furnace three or four times. They will go through three or four more. But right now, in this impossibly thin sliver between cycles, those atoms are doing something they have never done before. They are conscious. For billions of years before you, they burned through stellar cores with no awareness. No memory. No sense of what they were or where they had been. After you, they will return to that state. Unconscious matter drifting through space until the next star claims them. This is the only moment in their entire journey where they can look back at the stars that made them and understand. Musk: “If you want to look at the big picture… that’s the really big picture.” The big picture is not that we are small. Everyone already knows that. The big picture is that we are temporary witnesses to a process that does not need witnesses. Stars do not need observers to burn. Atoms do not need anyone to understand where they have been. The universe ran for billions of years with no one in it. It will run for billions more after the last conscious thing disappears. But right now, matter is examining itself. That has never happened before in 13.8 billion years. You are not a person who happens to contain ancient atoms. You are ancient atoms that briefly figured out how to think. The universe did not design consciousness. It designed stars. Consciousness was the accident. And the accident is half over.

Not a lot scares me. But sinkholes… Man. It can happen anytime. Anywhere. And that terrifies me.

@1776Soldier2024 @butze_ @ufc @paramountplus Incredible—you solved the mystery of a lifetime. I primarily use desktop PC. There's an alt code to create the longer hyphen or dash. What an incredible waste of time.

@GJ_Pete @butze_ @ufc @paramountplus Hyphens, sure, many do. Many do not, however, hold down on the hyphen to select the longest version of the hyphen. Most use "-" which is what pops up. They dont hold down and use the longest hyphen available. Look, you told me to run it through ai and gpzzero said its 100% AI.

Incredible. I don't remember seeing this debut so it's refreshing to catch up on such an incredible performance. You are deeply missed MJ. God speed.

#MichaelJackson’s 1995 MTV Video Music Awards performance is widely considered one of the most legendary live medleys in pop music history. On September 7, 1995, at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, Jackson took over the stage for a 15-minute solo showcase that seamlessly blended his biggest classic hits with tracks from his newly released album, HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I. To honor his monumental impact on the network, MTV even temporarily rebranded itself as "MJTV" for the day.
