Reality

[Dustinsd]

Have you ever thought that this is all in your head ? This reality and this world .

i mean it is.
when my brain stops working, like death. nothing will be
when i die, everyone and everything dies

 

[EvisceratedJester]

Sometimes, but I don't even think this little hectic brain of mine is bonked up enough to create such a messed up world

Exactly

 

[Dustinsd]

I mean - do we exist or is this just all made up ?

its a simulation because ive noticed something really weird when you're in the road while driving or a passenger pay attention to the other cars around you the white/grey/black cars are really common but for the other colors like red blue or anything else it always has to be 2 of them following eachother or being near eachother it can never just be 1 single car

this suggests that there is an algorithm that generates these cars before they come into your render distance meaning life is a simulation so some higher beings on a different dimension to ours

What? I feel like you see just noticing patterns that don't really exist.

just next time you happen to be in a vehicle pay attention to the road and the cars. you'll see what i mean. look for the uncommon colors (anything except for white, black or grey), its like a 1/1000000 chance that car will be the only one of that color passing by in a 3 second time frame

It is in my head . Its faulty brain wiring. So everything seems worse than it is and everything feels fake

I'm in a constant state between (life) and death. Derealization makes me know for sure that everything is a lie. Before it happened to me and when I was well, I believed life was real, but not anymore. It's horrible, but in a way, it makes you imagine what will happen next.

Yeah, or maybe you should start questioning your own perception and conclusions more? I mean, for one, where did you even get the "1/1000000" statistic from? Also, are you going to forget about things, like confirmation bias? What about apophenia?

No, the suffering this torturous, futile existence causes is very real to me and it's all so terrible, more than anything I wish I was never burdened with this existence, to me existence is an abomination that causes all this harm and suffering until all is gone and forgotten in non-existence anyway and I'd just always prefer to not exist than be burdened with this existence where there is no limit as to how much one can be tortured, as long as I exist I'll only hope for peace where this harmful existence is finally no longer my problem, I only hope and wish to never suffer ever again.

the universe , me, humans , everything exist only as models in my brain (to me) .

1 second after my brain dies everything will cease to exist forever ( to me ) . it will be as if i or the universe never existed in the first place.

the brain runs a software simulation a model of what the brain is paying attention to and simulates a self on the other side of attention. you can think about only one thing at a time.

Is consciousness a simulation engine, a prediction machine?

Back in September (which now seems like a million years ago), I did a series of posts on consciousness inspired by Todd Feinberg and Jon Mallatt’s recent book, ‘The Ancient Origins of Consciousness…

imo a lot of these models are not really what reality is.

for example the color white doesn't exist in reality, the brain models all wavelenghts as "white" . color doesn't exist :

Colour doesn't really Exist - We Live in a World of Black and White

Staying flexible and open to new ideas, new suggestions and new ways of looking at the world are critical for our success

some that i haven't seen any mention of are . a human is just cells the same cells as other animals . for example my brain is composed of 86 billion brain cells called neurons. each individual brain cell is the same as in mouse , fly , dog, chimpanzee. a brain that can suffer unending constant unbearable pain. but i've been programmed not to see me as this but as a person that wants to "go enjoy yourself" and be addicted to meaningless garbage like youtube videos, news, TV , social media, media , ai, etd. really is any of that going to solve my problems are these just wasting my time taking away time from me which i could be using to sovle my problems or all of them by getting my suicide method ready to go.

yeah go enjoy myself on social media, youtube , TV ,movies, news, viideos only to risk and fall for pain so bad that most people wouldn't trade anything for 60 seconds of the worst pain the worst torture

that number wasnt supposed to be an exact statistical value i was just emphasizing how rare it is, and i'm sane please listen to me and see for yourself then you can come back and tell me
you will be shocked
i too was even more doubtful than you are right now when i first heard about this
but i still checked, and it is real
crazy thing is its probably the only evidence that theres an algorithm for generating cars, and its so clear yet one can only realize it if they're told about it

This isn't me questioning your sanity, it's me calling out the fact that you might be creating connections that aren't really there. It doesn't matter how sane you are because this is just something our brains naturally default to. We are always scoping out different patterns and meanings, even when we don't realize it. As a result, sometimes we might establish connections that don't actually exist. Everybody has been guilty of doing this before.

This also goes into why it's important to sometimes question your observations and examine them more critically. I feel like it's more likely that what you are observing isn't a real pattern that actually exists, but rather might just be a byproduct of your mind instead.

idk what to tell u at this point its up to u if u wanna believe it or not
you probably cant comprehend the possibility of the world being a simulation so you just immediately deny this
i know for a fact im not bullshitting i see it happen all the time
