We talk about past lives a lot... but what about future lives?

[Mister Obvious]

I know who I will be in my future life.

I'll be back when you're finally ready.

The truth is One, though the sages know it variously.

The paranoids make a big deal that Anton LeVey and L. Ron Hubbard knew each other.

Hubbard loved ascension.

There is a character named Jennifer Pritzger.  A MTF activist and an heir to a billionaire fortune.  She pays huge sums to lobby against talk therapy for young people with dysphoria.

Her sister became a Tibetan Buddhist.  Sells herself as a reincarnated Llama.

The more complicated the person, the more complicated the delusion.

Eons ago, there were a people who called the world by its name.  It called the river by the sound of the river.

The people who called it something else, had created abstraction.  It changed the organization of their minds.

In the beginning, there was the word, as it were.

The people of the true speech knew no match.

The evolved.  The ones out of this space, their language evolved, until we couldn’t even understand their whispers.

The obsession with calendars becomes an obsession with numbers.

“The crafts defy our laws of physics”

What are these laws made of?

If you put a number sign in front of a word, it becomes a hashtag.

A plea to who, exactly?  The algo?  
It only counts.  It thinks only in numbers.

The more complicated the person, the more complicated the delusion.

So true.

What a great post...

You've said some important things here today.

[Mister Obvious]

Someone I admire a lot once told me that there is no 'absolute truth'.

I am starting to think perhaps they may have been right.

Thanks, Mo.  This is still the best spot on the web for real free thought.  Love the idea of the sentient algorithm and synchronicity.  That’s a real cool one to mull over, too.

[Mister Obvious]

I appreciate you. Thank you for your kind words...

Safe to say you're the same guest that posted as Dr. Retard. That writing style is un-fucking-deniable. Robert Anton Wilson touched by William Blake. 
Excellent prose throughout.

Dude that "Dr Paranoid F Retard" was the most legendary name I think I've ever seen a guest use, lmfao.

God I love that level of random creativity and humor.

Sometimes we have to assume some shared truths are absolute in order to get along.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident...."

I know who I will be in my future life.

An Elvis impersonator in a seedy Vegas lounge?

She gawn hafta get in line fuh dat one!! *pops his collar*

[Mister Obvious]

I mean I gotta say, it doesn't sound bad.

If I was an Elvis impersonator, chances are I'd be pretty hot, so at least I'd be a hot dude.

No, I'm not superficial okay. I'm totally not.

[user328]

No, I'm not superficial okay. I'm totally not.

I mean if you're gonna deal with someone else's shit, they might as well be hot.

[Mister Obvious]

That is exactly what I have concluded in my life...

[Dark Dick]

I want to go back and explore this campuss/apartment block/administration building.

It will be abandoned and I'll set up some living quarters.

Awww, Hell to the no. I haven't been that bad have I? SHEESH.

Humanity definitely peaked in ~1970.
