Plumbob

There is a theory that states that the universe we live in is merely a high powered computer running a simulation, that we are living inside a simulation. I’ve always thought about this concept, and it is kind of nerve-racking to think that our universe is merely a Quantum computer simulation.

But there is a game that reminds me of this concept, it’s called “The Sims”.

The Sims is a life simulation game where you create a “Sim”, you can customise him or her, and you move into or build a house. You choose how your Sim will live their lives, you feed them, you get them jobs, and you can create a family. I really like this game, and it has a sense of humor.

But one of the other things that I love about this game is how it relates to my life.

My name is Victor Jacobs, I am a Young Adult and I live alone. I am an Entertainer and I am Creative, Active and a Perfectionist.

My life and many others are controlled by a floating green crystal called a Plumbob, which floats over a person’s head when they are being controlled by the player in The Sims.

The Plumbob can make us eat, sleep, watch TV, or even call your friends. And when the Plumbob isn’t floating above my head, I am able to do whatever I want.

What the Plumbob does with us is ultimately dependent on how much the Plumbob values you. If it sees you in high value, it’ll cater to your needs and tasks.

But if it sees you in low value, then its likely that it’ll make you do things such as setting your house on fire or embarrassing yourself in public for it’s own entertainment.

Unfortunately, I’ve had friends who the Plumbob didn’t see as valuable. It constantly made them screw up in public, wet their pants and destroy their relationships until their deaths as an Elder.

But I’m lucky that my Plumbob sees me in high value and takes care of me.

Ah, my Plumbob appeared. I suppose it wants me to do something. I suddenly feel the urge to go outside and get some fresh air. I stand up and walk out of my room. Unless the Plumbob cancels the action, I have to proceed.

I open the front door and walk outside into the warm breeze of my town. Willow Creek.
