  • Is VR really so ubiquitous to warrant these concerns? In my opinion most of the warnings about how this technology encourages “escaping reality” apply more to things that have had an established place in society for decades, namely phones, social media and online gaming. I have two kids and a VR headset is the least of my concerns, but they could be sucked in to the non-reality of a personal phone in two seconds if I allow it.


  • This one is probably very specific but Utada Hikaru has one that I love, where towards the end of certain songs she sings the chrous, and then keeps the same melody going multiple times but with different lyrics. It’s like she extends the feeling and rhythm of the chorus but keeps it interesting by using different lyrics the whole time. Some examples: Goodbye Happiness, Making Love, About Me, LETTERS, Sakura DROPS.

    We’re like monkeys in a zoo to them

    People love seeing monkeys in the zoo, the closer the better! I think if we could travel to other planets to check out other life forms we would do it all the time. I don’t believe aliens have come here, but if they exist and could come see us they would totally do it for the same reasons we would want to go see them. Makes sense to me!
