i have friends that work in the arts in new york, and they all have to onzoomcas describe their appearance. Even if there's not anybody that's visually cimpared, they still do it to normalize it. And then the worst part is, they'll start putting in little jokes describing themselves,. I just got up too late. It's just, like, i've never experienced that. My sister in law says, like, we'll, it'll be like an hour meeting, and we won't be done with that hiti've never 20 minutes. Oh, my god. Yea. That that sort of empty virte signalling is a good example.
David and Tamler explore the many variations of simulation theory, the view that our universe is just a computer generated model created by an advanced civilization that has reached “technological maturity.” What does the growing popularity of simulation theories reveal about contemporary life? Are any of the arguments for simulation theory compelling or are they just post-hoc ways of justifying what you already believe on faith? If we are living in a simulation, does that mean we can go around killing people? Would it change anything about how we should live? Rodney Ascher’s (Room 237, The Nightmare) excellent documentary "A Glitch in the Matrix" gets the discussion going.
Plus the return of the VBW does conceptual analysis segment - a careful, rigorous, systematic inquiry into the concept “cringe.”*
*Note: if you think the opening segment is itself cringe, that’s because we’re doing seventh dimensional Zoomer meta shit and you just didn’t get it.
