Sapiens

Fictions built the world, money, nations, rights. I choose my fictions on purpose now.

Seventy thousand years ago we told better stories than the Neanderthals and here we are. Fiction is a survival technology.

The Agricultural Revolution was history's biggest fraud. Wheat domesticated us; the book proves the paperwork.

Imagined orders: hierarchies exist because we all agree to look away. My org chart felt seen.

Money is the most universal and most efficient system of mutual trust ever devised. My wallet felt philosophical.

We did not domesticate wheat. It domesticated us. The sentence that rearranged my grocery list.

The luxury trap, every improvement becomes a new necessity. Ironed shirts to inboxes.

Happiness doesn't really depend on objective conditions. It's the expectations game, run on biology.

Cognitive revolution, agricultural revolution, scientific revolution, and the fourth one is us, now, editing life.

Carried out of it: we rule the world because we're the only animal that believes in things that don't exist. Believe carefully.
