00:00Wake up Daniel
00:30Wake your sleepy ass up Daniel
00:31Good morning Daniel
00:36The time is 7.42am September 25th 2025
00:40You have 0 of 10 snoozes left
00:44It's time to get up and face the world
00:47Fuck me
00:49You couldn't afford the upgrade
01:00I tapped into your dreams via your body buddy last night Daniel
01:05You dreamt about Amber again
01:07And?
01:08And you know it's my core function as your personal super intelligent AI system
01:13To spot patterns in your life so you can be happy
01:15Patterns like eating pizza shakes for 90% of your meals
01:18Crying loudly in 62% of your showers
01:21Masturbating after 89% of your showers
01:24Only masturbating with your left hand for some reason
01:26Always getting very sleepy after you masturbate
01:28Okay counselor what's your point?
01:30You need to ask that girl out on a date
01:32On a real date
01:34None of that VR BS
01:36If you don't spend time with another real human being soon
01:39You're going to kill yourself
01:40Honestly
01:42I've run the statistical futures
01:44I'm not gonna kill myself
01:46You're very lonely Daniel
01:48The odds of you committing suicide are increasing by the second
01:5178.869%
01:5478.870%
01:5678.87%
01:58Look I'm not gonna ask Amber out on a date
02:00Okay
02:01We're in class together
02:03It would be
02:04Weird
02:06What you mean to say Daniel
02:08Is that you're scared
02:10Very
02:12Very
02:13Scared
02:14Daniel
02:17Did you know you're just a little cell
02:19A little cell and a great big organism
02:22Made of cells just like you
02:24And right now
02:26You're disconnected
02:27Disconnected from the other little cells
02:30And why?
02:32Because you're so frightened
02:34Frightened that if you reach out
02:37And try to connect with other cells
02:39They will reject you
02:40And you'll find yourself to be worthless
02:42But do you know what happens to cells
02:45Who don't try to connect?
02:47They kill themselves
02:48I'm not gonna kill myself
02:50It's 7.59am Daniel
02:52Time for class

04:06Big organism
04:08Daniel

04:14I'm sober
04:15It's just
04:16I

04:18You know
04:19I mean
04:19It feels like we're cells
04:21And
04:22And cells
04:23They need to stay connected

04:26And we need to stay connected
04:28The little cells
04:30They need to stay connected
04:31Okay

04:35What I'm trying to say is
04:37Would you go out on a date with me?
