Comment on Human civilization won't last forever; someday there will be a last movie ever made
AoxoMoxoA@lemmy.world 4 weeks agoI had a crazy dream about 8 years ago where I was born and lived a whole life into the future to an age of ~ 27 years old if I remember. It was pretty much just more of everything. All the new shit was slick as hell, old homes still were right wherethey were but new high rise buildings were hundreds of stories tall filled with technology we cant wrap our heads around currently ( no teleportation or anything like that). Poverty seemed to be non existent. Everyone was wealthy but not in a monetary sense ,it seemed like civilization moved beyond that , the ego was dead on a global scale. There was apparently some sort of “miracle” that happened when I was an infant so I wasn’t amazed by it; in the same way a child born today wouldn’t be amazed by a cell phone or computer.
Way less hardship everything was really chill (there was no war or even any reason to lie ). Entertainment was more in the form of symposiums/ live performances at various types of meeting places with interaction between the speakers and the public, they were an almost daily occurrence and a large part of every day life. They were everywhere from parks , amphitheaters, behind store fronts in ally ways etc. Lots of public transportation, full carbon bikes (or who knows what material but they were feather weight and cheap, everybody had one The porn was absolutely crazy.
It was clean utopian skylines and you didn’t need to wear a paper gown with your ass hanging out if you went to the hospital because there was no need for surgery.
Anyway it was just a dream I wish I never woke up from. Were probably going to get the ashes and smoke, some “Dinosauria We” shit

I had a very vivid dream of the future once myself and it made zero sense. It was weird lanes of color and metal and light and holographic abstractions moving across the sky and landscape, there were huge objects moving in the distance, so large they were shrouded by atmospheric haze and seemed like mountains, people were completely missing, there weren’t even visible homes, I couldn’t even tell if I was in a city or an industrial area or inside of some huge machine. It was a harsh and unfathomable world that looked nothing like anything we would recognize.
I think that is what our world will be like sometime before the last humans die off.

Wow that is freaky. It’s hard to say what goes on in other galaxies I’m sure there are worlds like that with all the given possibilities. I read an interesting brain candy type book called “Easy Journey to Other Planets” (it was by AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada so it may be a bit far fetched for some people, I try to keep an open mind personally 😄). It explains that we are not always reborn here and there are places that are beyond anything we can comprehend.
There was a period of time when I was interested in meditation and when I could let my mind go for brief periods I saw some very bizarre, unexplainable scenes unfold. None of them made any sense at all. It would be a glimpse of some way of life where the beings were machine like and the inspiration for 1950’s automobiles and kitchen ware, all avocado green and gold chrome 🤣(I don’t know any other way to explain).
Yes, I’m sure this current stage of human evolution would be beyond the understanding of a human from 25k years ago. It’s fun to think about sometimes.
Onward to utopia 🖖
