Your Brain Is not a Computer
Leaning on the lukewarm comfort of a microwaved coffee, you tried so hard to comply, to quiet the wild, to flatten, to fake, to debug your doubts, to disconnect from the pulse. How—I don’t know. Somehow, though, it resisted. The old grey graveyard, the moist matter making the mind, with sparkling synapses, wired in silver— crackled. Your brain is not a computer. ©Samia Oldman

Context: After the Great Optimization, a privileged group integrated into the system, believing they had now perfected themselves.
