I feel like if only I had worked up to my potential, my life wouldn't be a shambling corpse-to-be.
As it turns out, our potential is really high in a select few categories, and that makes it look to authority figures like we’re good at everything.
me explaining to my family that the only thing I actually know is how to formulate a proper search query
I used to feel that was one thing I was good at. But then the algorithms changed as well as the internet. Now I rarely find what I'm looking for and I die a little each time.
Yeah but that's not a problem with you or the march of time. Search engines have been effectively ruined.
I'd suggest Ed Zitron's "better offline" pod or Freya Holmer's latest YT vid on the topic if you want to hear some will developed arguments on the subject.
