Constant bliss means zero growth. I think growth is more important.

Constant bliss means nothing bad to which to compare the bliss. So is it really even bliss? I mean, I suppose in the scenario, it is—the machine makes it so. But going in, before getting hooked up, I know that it isn't real. Not really real.

This life is a blend of pain, bliss, and routine. That seems to be the way it is supposed to be, and that is good enough for me.

Wisdom is crystallized pain. No pain, no wisdom. I’m a hard pass to the bliss machine 🦋
