Philosopher Robert Nozick: “Now this experience machine can perfectly simulate a life in which you get everything you ever want-“
Me: “Sign me up.”
RN: “No, see, it won’t be real; you’ll think it is, but-“
Me, already plugging in: “Bye nerd.”

For the curious, nozick was also a libertarian dorkass who thought you could refute socialism with basketball

It’s like how most philosophers want me to think being immortal is actually bad... no it isn’t. It’s immature to want it? Then I guess I’ll be childish FOREVER

I'd like to be immortal as long as I had the option of turning it off again at any time. Could you imagine living for 10000s of years, getting completely sick of existence, but being forced to stay on, having no out what so ever.

Nozick: If I own a can of tomato juice and spill it in the sea so that its molecules (made radioactive, so I can check this) mingle evenly throughout the sea, do I thereby come to own the sea, or have I foolishly dissipated my tomato juice?
Me: I CAN OWN THE SEA?!

Wait, at what point does Marxism make you a Jedi? Was it in Theories of Surplus Value? I could never get through that.
