The question of whether we'll be uploading our consciousness to a computer is no longer if. It's probably when. That's because these digital consciousnesses – our essences – will likely be the product of an AI's interpretation of ourselves. The breadcrumbs we'll leave across digital files, images, videos, audio recordings, and, of course, all that social media will be an ample resource to reconstruct you.

Unfortunately, same.

I've changed a lot in the years since I started, but I assume all of it is still out there.

I was raised by deep red parents, has the whole homeschool bullshit and everything.

Things were starting to fall apart like 20 years ago, but finally hit a huge breaking point just shy of 10 years ago.

A lot of shit I said back then is probably super bad and cringe. I think I've blocked a lot of it out just to preserve some sanity.

But yeah, it's out there.
