self indulgent rambling thread


Posts: 2278

Well I'm high off an edible and this seems to be the only type of post left on SC these days so I figure I'll give a shot at one of those threads where you write a novel about yourself. You know it's really odd seeing SC in this position, with barely any users in chat or anybody interesting left to really interact with.  Yet here is the website before me, totally open. I could search and look way back to threads from a long time ago, when this place actually had anything on. Very weird to think of how this place influenced my life. Technically, the entire trajectory of my life changed when I discovered this site all those years ago. Now I got a wife, land, Ive been on all these wild adventures, had all these new insights.... and it all can be traced back to this dark little corner of the internet because if I never came here things would have been very different. I guess that's why I still come by from time to time despite it being dead and all of the negative qualities that come with this forum. I sorta gotta pay my respect to this thing that altered my life so completely. I think I'm doing alright personally these days. While sometimes I do feel surrounded outwardly by chaos due to the state of society, the world, and more personal concerns I think that I have learned to tap into the infinite reservoir of inner peace to get through anything. I definitely believe that we are all fundamentally composed of the same substance that just transforms into different forms and appearances. As a whole, it is a grand intelligence of which we all sort of take part in. Now if we pay close attention in life both to our inner mental activities and outer senses, life can seem to be hinting at a sort of connection between all events, as if we are perfectly placed by some omnipotent being, sort of "planned". And all the same, our actions and free will is actually part of that plan. For if there really is an all-powerful god, then it would have within its power, even with seemingly free will in humans, to already see exactly how things were going to go anyways. I would argue that the god, is the thing in itself, of which every one of us is a fraction of. As everything is part of the process of intelligence itself, I wouldn't strive to take claim to any imagined or idealistic outcome that your ego desires for. And I mean anything from simple lust to grand well thought out plans. Nothing is guaranteed to us beyond what we are experiencing right NOW. You could die today even. So don't attach all this stress to that shit. The past is gone, the future is uncertain, but right now is happening so appreciate what you can find in it; you are not going to find it in the ghosts of future and past. Only in the living present. The moral of the story is, RELAX. Act, but do so without hope of reward of fear of risk. Do it for the life of it and be content at all times.

My grandiose delusions are better than yours.

Yeah, it's funny. I think everyone has these points in their life where people, events or places cause a drastically different direction in life.

I was in a car crash that changed the direction of my life for the better. Weird.

Of the 36 images I have in the Noah Delora directory, 29 are of Noah or has Noah in it. You seemed like a good kid. 

Some of these images might have been collected off of your facebook account. 

When I look you up online, I see nothing but a missing person report issued by Hawaii police. The missing person report also suggests you are at risk. 

I'm going to guess you vanished and Delora reported you missing, while you were off eating corn and wild bore at a BBQ with strange native folks.

good to hear you are doing well

even before this site there was ME Thomas's site and PsychForums. the history goes back a long time, even further than any of us here. platforms evolved and everyone's on discord now. though it's nice to have a semi-abandoned longform content sanctuary with its own history. a joe rogan for insane people. and to see what happened with those who remain over these last 10 years

about what you're saying on the universe, it reminds me of schopenhauer on life and the net of indra. which are parallel ideas that the universe is structured in a purposeful way, every context in our lives being a thing to shape us and for us to experience

there used to be a better video than this with less jarring sounds and images, but up to ~1:50 it gives what schopenhauer thought about our lives being determined

indra's net is parallel to schopenhauer's perception of life, because in vedic legend, they perceive the universe as a lattice structure where every point reflects off adjacent points to compose the entire thing. like the representation of kabbalah. people converge on the realization that everything is interconnected, whether through mysticism or even material determinism

i don't like to get too in the weeds on philosophy because i think a lot of it is fake and gay. i have felt at moments as if there was a grand narrative. but also i see people believe in many psychotic things, and i feel as if we know very little to nothing at times. human intelligence is just a scale of what is possible. at any rate good to hear from you, nice post

21:51 Maninist: I was flipping through youtube shorts yesterday and Delora appeared

Totally not creepy or anything.

You must have missed the earlier drama, although the missing person report is news to me if it's not a case of mistaken identity.

Formatting this to make it easier on my eyes:

I know this is meant to sound motivational, but your takeaway from recent events I find concerning. 

You still riding high on speed these days or is that habit truly kicked?

 Noah must be popular.

 He seemed popular in his inner circle. Or his old inner circle anyway. Now I imagine he doesn't really have any friends, though I wouldn't know.
