The simple truth is that we are in a simulation , every
experiment points towards this, they are actually funding a
few expensive experiments to try to prove that we are inside
a computer. My theory is the programmers are running these
simulations to extract information , what that is, is hard
to understand. One thing is certain, this is a simulation ,
you are not physically real even your consciousness is
simulated. What's even stranger is that it's likely we are
imbedded in multiple simulations. Terence McKenna's trip
were he meets machine elves that are showing him objects
that produce more impossible objects that themselves produce
more objects and so on, seems to be an analogy of this. I
think he got into the control room and they were desperately
trying to explain this to him.

Brain in a vat ( or Cartesian theatre depending on yr view
point )
Luv how science still has to completely the dodge the issue
that it can't get a fucking clue about consciousness.. And
it is absolutely at the ROOT/centre of everything

i often thought not being visited by aliens yet could be a
solution to to the fermi paradox, we live in a simulation
and they didnt emulate all the extraneous stuff.

consciousness is very interesting isnt it, you start to get
into the realms of philosophy when you start talking about
it, as science doesnt have an adequate framework to describe
it.

For us anyone... i don't understand how anyone can walk
around and think they have an 'objective' view on
anything.Science is a decent tool though.

it's finding things that haven't been put together before,
but fit. is there any reason to make it more complicated
than that? if not, ok, we're done. please
let me know, mohamed.

the eagle may soar, but the weasel never gets sucked into a
jet engine.

Its funny rereading old stuff and disagreeing with yourself

terrence mckenna and the 2012 thing.

that there were certain relevant peaks there -- a solar
maximum; research chemicals seemed rather popular. then it
was all about the turnover of the mayan calendar, wasn't it?
and meanwhile, the world has gone slightly rancid, but it
certainly hasn't ended -- not that i can tell, anyways.
instead it was more like "the number one song is diamonds by
rihanna" and actually, that one's better than most. doesn't
feel over at all really

my initial thot -- back in 2012, actually -- maybe that's
just as far as he could see; the end of his vision. that
this was projection, of sorts, more really the end for his
relevancy.

in the back of my mind, though, there was a nagging voice:
but terrence mckenna was such a troll; this very well might
be a troll

but that doesn't mean it ain't for our own good, etc etc
even if it is... a troll.

i was thinking about this all again just now, and... oh... i
think it is, sort of, actually. perhaps finding the mayan
calendar stuff and thinking: this is a great framework to
hijack

that i'll cite this brill read about Nikki Finke. and,
well, never mind the rest for now, just this quote:

“I was saying that I had gotten this great tip and
that I had a really reputable first source but not a
second,” Ms. Kuczynski said. “And she basically said you
call five people, plant a seed in their brain and wait a day
for someone else to have heard it.”


if you convince enough people 12/12/12 is some sort of
cosmic nexus event, well... at least you've planned a
record-breakingly large party in advance. that i figure he
was like, "there are a few arcs that collide here; something
really might happen then! it'd be funny if i was actually
right and something did go down"

i wasn't creative enough to glue together consciousness
and programming on my own, but i did it by accident quite a
few times. then someone else did it for me, and i felt a bit
jealous thought of it and i hadn't. then i realized i still
had things to add. inventing the jet engine was quite a
thing, but to get it into planes all over the world took a
lot of thought and creativity as well. he built the
prototype and i'm working on a production model. my role is
more about gluing together the smaller sub-parts, and i see
it as mine simply have the right sort of background and i'm
not seeing anyone else stepping up. maybe that's just
because it's sheer lunacy.


the trampoline is working

"The Eagle may soar, but the weasel never gets sucked
into the jet engine."
