If we invent edible Flubber, there may come a day when we can survive by eating Flubber and also create a sustainably green economy building breathing Flubber buildings or entire towns out of it and even one day give Flubber consciousness too and expand it to a multiverse.
If we invent teleportation, there may come a day when real estate no longer matters as the majority of our time will be in the 'etherverse' and we will have solved the 'distance problem' and will need to rethink time. Something to think about.
If civilization is able to connect itself to itself via neuralinks, into a global consciousness we would be able to anticipate each others needs even before they are communicated and make life peaceful and stress-free. As so much pain comes from not being understood.
If we accelerate humanity not just to a sustainable green economy but more ambitiously to the speed of light or beyond, we can merge all matter and energy and expand our consciousness to the origins of the universe. We just need to believe in ourselves and a LightShip awaits us.
Breathing is unconscious + takes a lot of energy from the human body. If we could consciously develop a HyperGel iv injected to release O2 thru nanoparticles + oxygenate + absorb CO2 + diffuse it thru sweat, it would allow us to be a multi-atmospheric species: air/land/sea/space
Very few co's with accounting tricks havent gone bankrupt. Few understand this. Insanely hard to find talent creative + complicit to to keep things going. Would not recommend it to anyone. Like staring into the floorboards, er abyss and eating glass. Harder than WWII logistics.

3/ ...🇷🇺partner with CHINA 🇨🇳
to team on space including a lunar base
🚀🌑(on the moon or orbiting it)
after rejecting NASA🇺🇸 offer to team on this exact topic.
1/ This is the #1 reason why cold war with China is inevitable
The Left should be outraged by Muslim concentrating camps, human rights abuses and environmental disregard. The Right by expansionist military actions, hacking + corporate theft. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
2/ US solidarity won't come from Kumbaya.
We are a diverse deeply divided people with 1-2 generation long respites of internecine animosity redirected from each other to a common enemy...
1940s: Nazi Germany
1980s: Communist Russia
2020s: ?
I explain why neither Vietnam in the 60s/70s nor Japan in the 80s/90s nor Al Qaesa/ISIS in 00s/10s United our divided States. None were all 3 alien, large + threatening joincolossus.com/episodes/70111…
We will be revealing several new cutting-edge ventures in this theme (hardware + software) and announcing large financings for existing Lux family cos
2/ There are TWO main drivers for the theme
“TECH of SCIENCE”
1. Directional arrow of progress
-cutting-edge new scientific tools + automation + robotics + networked global scientists, layers of ML/AI on top of data produced from robotic lab workcells + scientific workflows—
3/ The other main thrust behind the Lux theme
“TECH of SCIENCE”
2. Geopolitics
We are in a new cold war with China
The main source of
hard power = .mil/defense
soft power = media (exporting culture) + PRESTIGE
PRESTIGE comes via scientific discovery...
which comes via tools

2/ Powerful piece from 60Minutes on Hank Crumpton...
3/ On Hank getting permission to take out Bin Laden when first visually identified...which we did not do.
1/ A China move on Taiwan is very improbable-tho more probable if Russia moves on Ukraine.

2/ All Putin "needs" is (fake) justification to invade. Putin is master of deception. A lie travels halfway around the world before the truth gets out of bed.
Fake news of a "child killed" may be enough to engender outrage + justify escalation + invasion
