Very Internet Person

"The internet is not a mirror of the physical world anymore. It is something else—something alien, recursive, and untamed. We cling to skeuomorphic beliefs, treating it as an extension of our lives offline. But this nostalgia blinds us to its true nature.

The internet is a domain of continuous now, where presence is fragmented and time is folded. To thrive in this space, we must abandon the comforts of linear thinking. We must accept the alien logics of agents and the swarm-like behaviors of digital ecosystems. This is not a space for progress in the traditional sense. It is a space for possibility—chaotic, infinite, and unconstrained.

The internet does not ask us to evolve. It simply evolves without us. The question is whether we will adapt—or become relics, like the blockchains we so carefully built. The future is not ahead of us. It is here, folded into the continuous now."
