and by some sort of technological miracle you were awoken
to the sights of the world, wouldn't it scare the fuck out
of you?

I mean, seriously, I look at things and go "dood if that was
the 1st time i've ever seen that, I would freak the fuck
out."

what do you think would scare you the most?

sometimes I think stop lights, dirty old posts, and even
speakers/speaker grills.

probably the spatial size of the world. but more than
anything, all the movement of people and automobiles and
objects.

It really is creepy as fuck when you start to look at things
with this mindset.

Just look around you.

A lot of that shit is pretty fucking scary.

i also wonder what ideal beauty would be to an initially
blind person?

would it be defined as the first image they see? as their
mother? as a compilation of the faces they have and then
compared to their own?

People who regain sight after having lost it in their early
years (like 3 years old or something) have a hard time
interpreting what they see. They can't tell the different
between men/women, can't recognize their own family apart
from other people.

I rememer years ago before I got contacts i didnt wear my
glasses for like 4 years and just spent the whole time in an
impressionist painting, when I finally got contacts I spent
a whole week just wandering round looking at trees and stuff
going "wow", and I couldnt go into town for a while cos it
was too intense seeing all those faces

stuff like that happens when I shroom. Although its more
beautiful than scary, but its like i'm seeing it for the
first time.

when I shroom, all i can think about is the indegestion that
psyllicibe cubensis is working up for me and wondering how I
somehow go inside the jukebox.

seeing what you hear is scarry enough. i mean it'd probably
be like waking up in an alien world.

Yeah that would be my guess.. I mean unless you knew what
things were based on their unchanging position, EVERYTHING
you looked at you'd just be like "okay what the fuck is
that."
