Amazing piece. I always read such types of fiction with some white, but slightly darkening, sense of envy. Especially parts like "We humans are, deep down, lazy and gluttonous creatures. If left to our own devices, we will do nothing but eat Pringles and watch Netflix." I left my job in February with enough take to not work for another 10 years keeping my gluttonous lifestyle and 20 or more without it. I kept myself busy with moving across the country (and then pushed a little further) for a couple months but 6 months later I ended up with a side project that I have an itch to productize, another project that I want to do for money, a consulting company and I talk to prospective employers at least once in 2-3 weeks. I don't remember when I was watching Netflix online, not downloaded while on the plane. These are the people from another universe. Somehow I believe their existence is a figure of speech for brilliant writers like Adam.
