You can't be shocked every time you see someone eating a severed leg.

It's not going to work.

Society's not going to work for the next five to ten years if things like this are going to shock you every time.

if every time you see someone walking down the street eating a severed leg that they stole from a crime scene, if every time that happens, it's going to take you out of whatever you're doing, it's going to ruin your day, you're not built for what's coming.

You are not built for what's coming.

You're certainly not built for the birth of the Sumerian AI demon.

So I think that people, you know, we all remember the early aughts, the 2000s, everything seemed kind of cool.

minus a couple of Middle Eastern wars, and Obama came in.

He was cool.

He was hip.

People were feeling good.

They were watching The Office.

Fast casual food started going.

You're like, wow, it's fast, but it's also not total shit.

Chipotle, things like that.

We remember those days.

We remember that world.

People felt centered.

Technology was cool.

It wasn't scary yet.
