    Fuck… When I read that I jumped and almost dropped my fidget poker chips

    I feel like other generations didn’t go through this. Even my parents have been shocked hearing about how long ago the star wars prequels came out, but didn’t react hearing how long it’s been for the originals.

    It just feels so viscerally recent… My grandma saw cars come into common usage and people land on the moon, and she’ll say it’s wild how much the world has changed. But tell her Netflix started streaming close to two decades ago, and she’ll start laughing at the absurdity of the thought

    Maybe time distorts as we approach the singularity
