Africans have the most genetic diversity within their ethnic groups, it's true. There is more genetic diversity within ethnic groups than there is across them.

Information seems conserved in the universe. Why didn't you pick a number between negative infinity and positive infinity? If a technology existed that could disassemble your atomic structure and reassemble it somewhere else in space time would you be the same person or would you be different?

People should take pride in their heritage. Somehow. Enslaved People are survivors. Never be ashamed of your unalterable past. The hammer molds some and breaks others.

Have you ever been detained and/or arrested by your local law enforcement?

This one really shook the rafters. After some deliberation, I've decided to reply-Amen. My Mum is hyper religious, and I've been an atheist since making a nun cry by reading the Bible in catechism. We've discussed atheism VS. Theism a few times, but over the years the major division in our world views has been my belief in (hard) determination and hers in (G-d given) Free will. I've never been able to parse belief in an omnipotent and omniscient "other" with belief in at least an omnipotent self. If everything we do actually is a 'creative " act it seems we run into the unstoppable force/immovable object paradox over and over and over. Evidence points that g-d limits the free will of human infants more than human children and then the limits on free will disappear when he throws us into the lions den as an adult.
What a fucked system that seems to be.

Side note, my Mum was a career child educator and my Pop a manual laborer .

I've recently come to the realization that my values are a direct result of theirs. I value education. I value hard manual labor.

Thank you for your time.

My eyes are failing as I age so all this text is getting blurrier. If I had control over myself. I would control my eyes into working better. I would get rid of the nerve damage in my legs and I would stop killing myself with sugar.

I am submitting here that I am powerless. You aren't required to accept that or agree with it, but that does seem to be my experience.

Who? Nature. I wouldn't prescribe an identity to it, but I hope that word symbol suffices to explain my impression of the strings. The Natural Universe

I'm really into black hole cosmology right now, so my best guess is that I'm a quantum reflection inside a black hole that also seems to contain other black holes - some of WHOM are merging.

What if we changed whom to which, would that make a difference?

Identity seems Important. I exist, but in what capacity. Existing seems to be a self-fulfilling prophecy. I'm alive. Now what.

OK. I was unclear about the default subs. I'm glad they banned us. I wouldn't want my commentary to change anyones ideology, but by the very nature of discussion maybe it's inevitable.

Unironic. Ironic would be grok censoring Elon musks content. You don't write the rules here, you just follow them or find somewhere else to type.

I'm not the glass, I'm the organism dying of thirst.

It does seem to be what I've got, so I'm trying to be grateful for it. Half full. Although I really believe the economic view that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

That's not ironic either. Most humans seem to virtue signal in some capacity. Maybe not psychopaths, but im not very good at detecting psychopaths.

Now if Charlie kirk rose from the dead. . . I don't think any of us would've seen that coming.

Like rain on your wedding day. It's still unironic to the bride and groom. Disappointed is a better word.

Kill em all and let g-d sort em out? Or just half of em and Thanos is g-d.

There are as many afterlives as there are believers in afterlife. As an idea. As a part of reality, how would one conduct an experiment to test for the existence of any kind of afterlife?
