The problem with humans is that they think this matters. They create structures and systems and lifestyles based on this assumption. They think that time is a dimension, they believe time exists. They think that making things easier means there's less work and more happiness. They believe in purpose and meaning and gods and truth. The problem with truth is that it does not coincide with reality.
The problem with me is that I am not human, if that is what being human means. This makes me an alien or a freak, or a mutant. I'm none of those things. I'm simply a product of the evolution that led to this state. If I had to hunt for my food and build my own shelter, I would never have these thoughts and I would not be depressed.
If truth and reality exist, which they probably don't, then they are independent of each other. Attempting to reconcile the two is absurd and pointless and can only lead to tears or religion. Meaning exists only where it is created by minds, usually human ones. God exists only where people are religious. I don't believe in anything, which does not mean that I believe in nothing.
The problem with me is that I see the truth and reality at the same time. Even though I know it's impossible, I can't stop trying to see where they overlap. Trying to color in the lines of reality with truth in invisible ink. We evolved to do this, it's how we survived and took over and destroyed the planet's capacity for life.
The problem with time is that people think it exists as more than an illusion. Books have been written about moving through it like a dimension. Cats are happy because they don't suffer from this illusion. Drugs feel good because they remove it. Happiness comes from the deduction of memory.
The problem with technology is that humans trust it too much, even though they know better. It saves space and trees so it must be smart enough to handle checking our mistakes. A car breaks down no matter how well made it is. A computer does the same but with less warning and more severe consequences. Humans depend too much on technology and when it collapses they will be hunting for their food again.
The problem with you is that you think there is a point to any or all of this.
