I talk about the conspiracy theory of this year's Oscars, Will and Jada Smith, ad memorability, financial interest in getting eyeballs, my thoughts on the slap that was heard across the "world", and the gradual encroachment of our rights. 

I searched for something with Toshi Take, a senior in electrical engineering at the University of Washington.

I talk about why we get tired of drinking water, how our mind is an ever-evolving escape room that you can't escape, therapy, DMT, symbols of the unconscious, the importance of laughter backed up by research, finding your compass to guide your life, allegory of the cave, programmed-out adults, and the Dao

I talk about the attention economy and how corporations are battling to control you. The pandemic has normalized interacting with the world through screens. Escape the mental prison the world has created for you and take back your life through breathing.
