Oddbean new post about login | logout We're all industrially farmed animals, now, and some animals are more tamed than others.
We've actually been that for a long time now...
I'm not well suited to it, I'm sure plenty on here aren't.
That's why we're here, and not there.
I've got a feeling the whole "advanced" civilisation thing where most people are doing what most people don't need or seldom need is never stable or maintainable long term, the problem is the population has gone beyond the numbers that can be sustained otherwise... Rome was rather a soft landing, I don't see how it can be for us.
