How when we're looking through posts on social media, what we're actually looking at are snapshots of people's thoughts at given moments throughout the past however many years that there has been social media?

And if you extend the concept of 'social media' to the entirety of media, then we're basically at a point where - compared to pre-Gutenbergian times (Protip: before the printing-press was invented) - we have what would qualify as basically telepathy?

Now, considering Moore's Law (look it up), doesn't it stand to reason that we're very close to achieving what would have to be called *literal* telepathy?

Because I'm pretty sure it's becoming more and more common to be thinking what other people are thinking at the same time and knowing it, and we have confirmation of this because we've been able to more and more instantaneously communicate.

So, Quantum Leap it, bitches.

Let's go with the psychic telepathy thing.

We can handle it.

Maybe have to spend some time in the ward, but hey; not everybody's ready, right?

Those who are, though... well, what are we waiting for?

Right - no, thank you for reminding me, lol.

Fuck; I forgot to connect this idea to the Akashic Records.

It's basically the Akashic Records.

Like, there's an objective viewpoint from which all human action is seen from a fly-on-the-wall perspective.

That exists.

Having it and not being able to do anything about what they see because of it is sort of a Faustian bargain, though, since you mentioned it.

But for any of the important things, you'd have to be a human in order to do anything about it.

Wait - is that why humans are stuck in the cycle of Samsara? Because they think that their involvement on Earth somehow requires them to make a pledge or oath to the human race, lol?!

Dude, it's just people. Shorthand for 'intelligent conscience.'

Not all humans are people, though. And not all people are humans.

The whole problem is that people assume that death has to be a painful experience, because they've spent a lifetime watching humans have painful deaths.

I don't think it has to, but then again, I got no street-cred because so far as I know, I've never died.

Other than the whole like 'I died inside' thing, but I'm not a 13 year-old girl, lol.

Anymore.

I'm pretty sure I have been at a few points in my life, though, and I'm a 44-year-old cis-het-male.

So go make of that what you will, people.
