A bunch of atoms that are curious about the world, but furious about the society. We should help all humans to have a decent life without any strings attached, so that we can understand us, the atoms, and the rest of the universe. And create a smarter and saner society.

Since 2005 I make documentaries, write books, and enable many trade-free platforms for everyone.

You know....it is so weird how we get sucked into playing our roles in whatever culture we are from. And it is true for me as well. For everybody. Sitting here planning to start editing TROM II; or thinking about adding a new trade-free service to our directory or trom.tf; or a new documentary to VN. Or thinking about money and the lack of, or reading some tromnews and all that.....

Then I get goosebumps when I realize that FUCK ME DUDES all of these things like stars, atoms, cells, exoplanets, evolution, are all real. We put words on them, we describe what science is and how these are "facts". But nonono these are REAL. Fuck me. How can this be true!?

Fucking mind blowing. Think about it! Focus. Think. Absorb.

You have one chance to understand and absorb these. Don't fuck it up. Because you are on a plane that will crash at one point, and that's for sure. You won't fly forever.

I am fighting to not lose this human feeling inside of me. And I hope to never lose it. Getting sucked into the daily life, underneath a blanket of 100km of atmosphere, blasted wit... show more

Its also a very humbling thought, that the entirety of humanity and everything we've done are on this little blue dot suspended in space.

Its normal to forget about these things in our daily life. I mean, you can't be thinking about the extent of the universe and the depths of the oceans when your doing daily tasks like taking a shit, lol 😂

But when you do get reminded of these truths, it'll give you goosebumps.

Although I agree that we can't comprehend the depths of reality, even when you take a shit or do you daily routines, you should try to put that in the cosmic perspective :). Like...what I mean is that say "taking a shit" example...in our narrow and cultural world that is something disgusting and private. However if you know a few bits about reality, then you realize that what you do there is even more interesting - you are transforming organic matter into tissue and energy, then expel what you could not process :D. And the brown color is because of dead cells as far as I know. In any case, it is a weird thing that we do and makes you think....think about energy, digestion, and about who you are because at the end of the day, that apple you eat, the chocolate bar, that roasted chicken....they transform into you. How the fuck!? :)

That's the shit I'm talking about! haha

Haha. That taking a shit example was really a joke, but I understand what you mean. If you look through a certain perspective, everything becomes interesting and curious.
Here's an interesting video about farts 😁 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zt9rvaijpPY

But what I really meant to say with the previous post is that we usually get caught up doing something in life and its normal to forget about stuff like this. Those goosebumps come and go, they're not constant.
