    Aliens have quarantined the solar system to prevent contamination of the universe by humanity. They are waiting for us to incinerate ourselves and keeping the other races safe until we finish the job.

    The Warp from Warhammer is real. Every mind in the universe is linked in an invisible, non-physical way, and the ~collective vibes~ of those minds feed back into the physical world, creating a loop where everything people believe slowly becomes more ‘true’.

    That there is an as of yet undiscovered loophole to either the no cloning theorem or the more general no broadcast theorem. I can understand the problems that are generated by either being true, but FTL communication and dataships are just so darn cool.

    We have higher dimensional organs and we can’t see them because, well, they’re from a higher dimension. The soul is one of these organs

      Sounds interesting. What are organs do you think fall under this category?

      That explains the miracles. He took on a humanoid form so he wouldn’t frighten their simple minds, and the “miracles” he performed were just him using contemporary alien tech to heal illnesses and turn water into wine. Dude was just trying to help advance humanity, and they killed him anyway.

      Imagine the insane technology we’d have today if the Romans just let him do his thing.

    The firmness of my opinions is proportional to how much they have been tested.

    The best way to find something you’ve lost is to buy another one, then you’ll find the original.

    Antivaxxers are chaos cultists who want to share Grandfather Nurgle’s gifts with humanity.

    Sometimes my dead dogs visit me in my dreams. I know they’re supposed to be dead in the dream and I give them lots of pets and belly rubs. Then I wake up feeling great. Yes I’m 99% sure it’s a product of my unconscious mind but sometimes…

    All animals have limited intelligence. Humans are animals, therefore humans have limited intelligence. Take a chimp or a dolphin and try to teach them calculus. Now imagine what realities lie beyond human understanding. There’s a whole epistemological realm of the unknowable out there.

    • The best way to find something you’ve lost is to buy another one, then you’ll find the original.

      Or lose yet another part of your [object], then the previous lost part will mysteriously be found again. That’s kid-me with toys lol.

    That if you can’t find something or something doesn’t work, it will continue to be missing/not work until you complain about it to someone, at which point it will start working/show up and you look silly.

    Reincarnation

    I just can’t get over the idea of:

    Nothing --> Existing --> Nothing

    So I figured, an unscientific philosophical guess, that existence is more like:

    Noting --> Existing --> Nothing --> Existing (again) --> Nothing --> Existing (again) --> [repeating forever]

    Maybe “souls” is just an energy.

    Einstein said energy cannot be created nor destroyed. So maybe, when we die, we become an energy that, by some ways we can’t yet understand, just randomly becomes a part of another living being… maybe a human, maybe non-human, maybe this energy stays nearby here on Earth, maybe it somehow goes to a random alien planet and you become an alien the “next life”… who knows?

    Or maybe this is just another coping mechanism my brain cane up with in face of the knowledge of certain death, influenced by the Eastern philosophy that I grew up with? Whatever…

      Iirc some of the stoics believed in a similar idea. They thought the world was deterministic and it simply happened over and over the exact same way every time.

      On the note of energy not being created or destroyed. The energy in your brain doesn’t wait till the universe ends to leave. It continues moving as heat or chemical reactions when we die just like it did before. The order of the system it’s in breaks down, but all that energy keeps existing forever.

      Since you emit energy as infrared light just by being warm, and infrared is capable of leaving the atmosphere. It is possible, that just by stepping outside, some of your energy has already left the planet and made it to other astronomical bodies in our solar system.

      If we assume there is life on any of the moons or planets or asteroids nearby, who knows, maybe some of the energy that used to be part of you has already become part of a new, alien, life form.

    Probably belongs in unpopularopinion, but: Chicken is a waste of spices an herbs.
    “But you gotta season it, man!!”
    I know. Put the same seasoning on any other meat, and it’ll immediately be a better dish.
    Anything you can do with chicken can be done better with pork.

    Ok, maybe not wings if you wanna be pedantic about it.

    Climate change denial is a psy-op by reptilians who want to make the world warmer because they’re cold blooded. Anti-vax influencers are there to cull the xenophobes before the reptilians come out of the egg.

    Okay maybe I really want to believe there are cool reptiles who are kinda dumb but ultimately want to be our friends because otherwise we’re making ourselves stupider and deader and we don’t even get to meet scaley twinks.
