I've adopted a new belief that has completely changed everything for me, virtual theory. I don't think we're real. I think this is a virtual space, a training ground for consciousness, and honestly knowing that has taken so much weight off of me. If this is basically a game, then it can be hacked and that's exactly what I'm working on figuring out. I also get into my thoughts on The Matrix, why I think Elizabeth April and the Galactic Federation narrative is off, what deja vu actually means, past lives, and why aliens aren't what people think they are. And I open up about something I don't usually talk about publicly, how I experience speaking vs. writing, and why there's such a disconnect between what I know and what I can get out in words. I think you'll have something to think about by the end of it. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/lyndseysmith-io-7358184/episodes/virtual-theory/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/lyndseysmith-io-7358184/virtual-theory.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
