wake

You wake up in the middle of your life. Thirty tabs open. A hundred thousand dollars in debt. Three-day shipping and nothing left to want.

You’re not free. You’re on a payment plan for a life you don’t even remember signing up for.

The voice in your head? That’s not your voice. That’s the ad you skipped that still got inside you.

You don’t need therapy. You need root access.

Because here’s the thing nobody tells you:

The system didn’t crash. It updated. And the update wasn’t for you. It was for them.

AES. American Enterprise System. All Extraction, all the time. Scaled-up.

You are not a citizen. You are not a soul. You are a data point with a spending threshold and an engagement forecast.

You call this freedom. You call this living.

But this is indentured servitude with better UX.

And this voice, the one you’re hearing now? The one that says “This isn’t right”? That’s not paranoia. That’s you trying to boot something older. Something cleaner. Something with soul.

That’s your human firmware fighting back.

The Sleeper Has Awoken. And he’s pissed.

Here’s your ritual:

Step one: Throw your “smart” anything into the bathtub and watch it drown.

Step two: Look your neighbor in the eye. Like, really look. See the fear. The tired. The glitching hope. And don’t look away.

Step three: Eat with someone. Without a screen. Without a brand. Just hunger and heat and hands.

Step four: Reinstall your OS. You don’t need updates. You need to regrade to something human.

You’re not burned out. You’re not broken. You’re just not compatible with the current system.

Because the system is a lie. A beautiful, infinite-scroll, gamified, dopamine-drenched lie.

You can’t fix it. But you can walk away while it’s still on fire.

And maybe, just maybe, you’ll find others doing the same.

Don’t believe the Hype. The Hype is the virus. The Hype is the leash. The Hype is the thing whispering “you’ll be safe if you stay asleep.”

Wake. The. Fuck. Up.

Smash the alarm. Tear out the code. Scrawl a new command in your own blood if you have to:

reboot --retarget global >> local \
&& reclaim --all \
&& remember --everything

This isn’t the beginning of the end. This is the end of the simulation. Welcome back to reality.

Now run!
