I don't. Not a single one? No. Now the idea of eating a piece of pizza or a whole pizza or like a donut or something just makes me sick because I'm going to do it. There'll be like, five seconds of maybe enjoyment. And then you've got like an entire day of misery. You feel sick. You feel lethargic. Your sleep is going. Like I've just ruined my sleep. I feel awful about myself.

Like the cost is so high. I just don't want to do it. The other day I ate a potato chip. My friend was like, just have one. Yeah. It tasted like gasoline. I'm so surprised. We're just so normalized to these processed foods. We can no longer taste it, but it was just wild to go back in time and experience it new.

Within days. Days? Yeah, it's very, very fast. Right. That's the thing about being human is like... If you take any given circumstance and you say like, what do I abhor? What am I repulsed by? What do I find unimaginable? Take any kind of vector. And you imagine that that is an impossible thing for you to be or do.

What do I find unimaginable? Take any kind of vector. And you imagine that that is an impossible thing for you to be or do.

And then if you actually got in that circumstance and you did it for a few days, you may find yourself renormalized to the exact thing you just found unimaginable. Like we humans can adapt to anything and almost instantaneously. It's just crazy. And so like most of the time, the realization is just like we're trapped in this thing

I've had enough cycle times now with measurement where I can feel things intuitively. I can feel my HRV. I absolutely know my heart rate at any given moment. Yeah. So I definitely, my sensory awareness has dramatically increased.

Yeah. It's okay. Yeah.

Yeah. It's okay. Yeah.

I'm playing the power laws. Yeah. So that's why like last week when being with friends, I wanted to try a new thing, go to bed early, get your deep sleep, stay up and have fun to go back to bed. Like it's okay. So really trying to be adaptive.

My mentality is that I'm really motivated by being respected by those that exist in the 25th century. When they read about this time and place, I would like them to say that I saw something that was invisible, that was incredibly hard to do, that the predictable pushback from the status quo was pretty violent. And so I'm really trying to demonstrate the future of being human.

I'm not trying to be normal. I'm not trying to bow to status quo. I'm not trying to fit in. I'm not trying to soothe. I'm trying to say the speed at which technology is traveling is we're basically probably evolving like five, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 years equivalent in months of time. Like our speed of evolution is increasing rapidly

And so I'm trying to anticipate where we want to be and not be a lagging indicator of status quo. And so in my mindset, I really don't care what anyone right now who lives has to say about this. I don't. I just really am entirely in that future headspace.

And so that really I find to be liberating because like so much of our society, you're tethered to social expectation and the punishment of what accompanies violating that expectation. And I just found it, I had to come up with a mental model to like try to fully explore this without that tethering.
