Trump's Lessons

Donald Trump says he's exonerated by Robert Mueller. Donald Trump is a liar, a cheat, a selfish, narcissistic hater, and just plain petty thug. No investigation is ever going to change that.

What we can learn from Donald Trump will not be found in investigations or indictments. The real lessons of Donald Trump go to our collective conscience as a species and should serve as warning to us all.

If we don't fundamentally change as a species - intellectually, ethically, spiritually - we are not going to make it.

Underachieving Gods

There is no reason to believe that an intelligence capable of creating a computer simulation of an entire universe can't come to exist.

Assuming 'real' universes exist for billions of years it is likely this has already occurred.

In fact it is more likely we exist in such a simulation than in a ‘real’ universe given how easy simulations would be to create as compared to ‘real’ universes.

If our universe is in fact such a simulation all I can say is that its creator is one hell of an underachiever.
