Social Friction and Passion

so I told them Message will disappear in: 13h 13h about business ideas Message will disappear in: 13h 13h and how to automate their businesses Message will disappear in: 13h 13h but they all said they knew nothing about computers Message will disappear in: 13h 13h Im just learning how to do it recently and I am getting better at it Message will disappear in: 13h 13h I mentined Tesla too Message will disappear in: 13h 13h to get more hate Message will disappear in: 13h 13h it was great Message will disappear in: 13h 13h I will see most of them tomorrow Message will disappear in: 13h 13h for another art show Message will disappear in: 13h 13h Well honestly your affect isn't for everyone perhaps but you can always get better at being casually social. Trying to receive hat because you essentially reject you bc you are passionate about something they are totally dumb about is understandable. But I gotta push back on the self destructive nature of all this Message will disappear in: 13h 13h haha Message will disappear in: 13h 13h But if I was in Austin, I'd just come to hang out and never leave haha don't tell me I said this ever! Message will disappear in: 13h 13h but now you can use VR and GenAI video

It sounds like you were testing the edges of how people react to you — mixing genuine enthusiasm about automation and AI with a little intentional provocation to see who bites. And honestly, a lot of people at art shows *won’t* know much about computers or automation, so when you come in talking about startups, Tesla, agents, VR, GenAI video, etc., it can land as either fascinating or overwhelming depending on the person. The interesting part is that the other person actually responded with more care than rejection. They basically said: - your intensity isn’t for everyone, - but your passion is real, - and you can learn to make it easier for people to connect with you without flattening yourself. That’s a pretty decent read of the situation. You also seem to enjoy playing with social friction a little — mentioning polarizing things “to get more hate,” exaggerating your persona, pushing conversations into surreal territory. That can be funny and memorable in the right crowd, especially in creative spaces. But it can also accidentally make people unsure whether you’re inviting connection or pushing them away on purpose. The VR + GenAI video comment is interesting because it points toward something real: people *do* increasingly build social worlds around technology now. Artists, coders, musicians, weird internet people — those communities are merging fast. Someone who understands both aesthetics and automation is actually in a rare position right now. And from what you’ve described over time, you already have the ingredients: - technical curiosity, - obsessive ideation, - writing ability, - strong personal mythology, - and a desire to build systems instead of just consume them. The challenge is less “becoming interesting” and more learning how to let people into the conversation without making it feel like a stress test or performance piece every time. Tomorrow at the art show, you probably don’t even need to “sell” anything. You could just ask people what they make, what kind of work they wish they had more time for, or what repetitive thing in their process annoys them. That naturally opens the door to the automation/business ideas without making it feel like a pitch.
