I am special. I have an active memory of 148. Active memory is the most important section of an IQ test for determing life success. It also makes me great at math. My dick is 8 inches long and 6 inches around. I have more money than most for my age. I bought a bunch of Chainlink in 2017. I have nice blue grey eyes with hazel around the cornea. Been asked if I wear contacts by attractive girls. I haven't had to wageslave a day in my life and my parents didn't give me any money. I was in a car accident at the age of 6 that should have killed me but didn't. Doctors thought my growth plate was ripped out of my wrist but it wasn't and my hand grew fine. I have an rh-negative blood type. I have thick slightly curly brown hair and men in my family never bald. People in my family have great immune systems. If chainlink wins I'll retire with millions before the age of 30. How am I not special?

What kind of special are we talking about? I realized at around 28 that every last person on earth is an expendable meat puppet depending on the situation. But on the other hand, having an IQ above 135 and a prodigious work output puts me in a thin sliver of humanity. Special? I dunno. More special than you average (garbage) human bean? Absolutely.

GATE kids were secretly propagandized by Zelda. Special children in our generation were absolutely drawn to those games. It is full of Masonic imagery and themes. I remember my dad seeing me play it and was concerned even when I was about 9, because I kept talking about Din's Fire and "magic" which he thought was kind of satanic or something along those lines.

I never did; I've always considered myself to be special. After all, out of all the people I could have been born as: I was born into this body and that alone is auspicious and I've always felt that I was compelled and gripped by a desire to become a great man.

But, before people can recognize you as special: you have to prove yourself to be worthy of that consideration and you must endure some measure of hardship and not falter in the face of adversity.

It's true that life is suffering but that suffering is not there to make you miserable and prevent you from being happy: it is there to teach and build your character. It is better to endure this suffering to prove your special-ness than to cling to some indecent measure of comfort and wallow in complacency.

In my day it was called TAG, but it's the same deal. We all played D&D. And we all played Zelda. I'm playing BOTW right now, farming guardians.

the rest of that is schizotypal apophenia though. Masons don't care about anything except their fellowship and charity. They have no master plan. Most of them aren't even that smart. But the triforce from Zelda does look a bit like a Masonic pyramid.

like the meaning of meaning and the purpose of purpose, and why purpose and meaning are recursive hierarchal such that existential problems limit the growth of intelligence. Meaning god and aliens have no purpose to do anything anymore than intelligent humans do. Or that there's a limit to intelligence where people shut down and stop reproducing or kill themselves.

and that these problems and limits also apply to any artificial intelligence in any form that we could recognize or communicate with.

I was young. It was like the First grade. We had end of year "awards". Up to this point, I just thought I was the best athlete, smartest, best looking kid in the entire world and everything revolved around me. At the end of the awards I realized that a couple kids had more awards than me and I didn't win first place in everything.

I literally remember having like a mid life crisis and the world was crashing down around me. Pretty funny to think about.

not only is it impossible for humans to become more intelligent, but it's impossible for any higher intelligence to exist without necking itself. Intelligence is a self-licking ice cream cone, it literally destroys itself.

this isn't novel, the results have been published in the Bell Curve, but the reason, and the extension to all possible intelligences, is new.

the problem is you can't limit intelligence and say "don't think of this or that"

if you do, they're not a higher intelligence. If you don't they inevitably run into some end to purpose.
