It's so f***ing genius. Born during the last dying breaths of an "old world". Close enough to have a taste for what it was like, but too late to truly experience it. Just enough to long for it, whatever it was.
Just in time for a completely new age. The year 2000. The "information age". All-knowing, if you want it, and if you can handle it. Almost like we were given training wheels for godhood.
Told all our lives of past catastrophic events that have wiped out civilizations several times over. Told of a prophecized apocalyptic/religious event. And clearly born just in time to experience it...whatever the hell it REALLY is.
Is it just pure luck and coincidence? Who told you that life doesn't or can't go a certain way? Have you been here before? What are you basing the reference on? What if this is all a realistic dream? Sure, people around you say it's one thing. After all, they've lived THEIR lives, and their parents have lived THEIR lives, and nothing happened.
But I implore you to disregard what "others" have told you. I mean... think about it, take it into consideration, but realize that all you can know for sure is your own consciousness and experience.
Do you remember the exact moment when you enter the world of a dream? Or do you suddenly find yourself there, following along? Does everyone else in the dream not feel separate and autonomous from you? Yet it's your own manifestation.
It's turtles all the way down. Please wake up. Maybe I'm only posting this to myself, and for all intents and purposes you guys don't even really exist. But on the off-chance that I'm wrong, and you ARE on the other end receiving this message, I beg of you to look a little closer. We are not where we think we are.
Have a good day.
real
It’s crazy bc I was just chopping it with my homie about this. He was telling me It's so f***ing genius. Born during the last dying breaths of an "old world". Close enough to have a taste for what it was like, but too late to truly experience it. Just enough to long for it, whatever it was.

really is turtles all the way down
I think sometimes life is similar to a movie. Not just starting from the theater or at home experience but the entire scope of the cinematic production.
Writer, Director, Protagonist, Antagonist, Character arcs, plot twists, special effects, props etc.
Editing, scoring etc.
Really as you're saying, we're characters either in the film, experiencing something in a moment of this scene. We just call this scene of ours 'Life'. Before us, events took place that shaped the stories of the Protagonist and Antagonist. Us as minor characters, this scene we're living in this and our emotions are causing us to sway one way or another. When our time is finished, we pass along the information of the film to the next actors. In passing, over coffee, lunch or whatever. The production never stops, it keeps moving forward and towards its end.
The Director and production crew doesn't tell everyone what Act we're in but the energy in the air, or 'on the set' provides us with details and moments of what's to come.
Some of us have the full script. Some of us have been given certain lines to say. Some of us are characters walking in the background waving.
What I also wonder is, who is watching this film, could it be us or are there others out there replaying this process or watching it live.
cant lie tho op this the s*** that comes to me when im hella manic but it feels so convincing in the moment
None of us are real. You subconsciously created a random pool of personalities within yourself and attached them to blank canvases to created a userbase on this nonexistent "website".
Maybe one day you'll wake up.
this def a “dream” tho
I think that sensation that this is all sort of arbitrary and dreamlike is hard to come by, because normally we're so wrapped up in all of the norms/assumptions of our existence
Like you spend 18+ years living within this world and you get pretty used to it. But if you strip all of your prior knowledge back and just think about what tf is really going on here

exactly. the world seems so regular and ordinary growing up in it, seeing it with virgin eyes (shrooms or meditation), is definitely a wtf.
we live on a ball magically bound to another one, isolated in a black 3D void and for some reason these systems create the human experience + everything that comes with it? love, sex, hate, rape, evil, community
its like leaving a VR headset on for so long you forget its a game

love that last line, completely agree
maybe this is why meditation is said to have created states of nirvana and s*** like that
it peels back all of the assumptions and obfuscation our mind does for the sake of our survival and shows you the naked truth of existence
