Was Frank Reynolds right about death?

>When I'm dead, just throw me in the trash.

>I mean I don't give a shit. If I was dead you could bang me all you want. I mean who cares? A dead body is like a piece of trash. I mean shove as much shit in there as you want. Fill me up with cream, make a stew out of my ass. What's the big deal? Bang me, eat me, grind me up into little pieces, throw me in the river. Who gives a shit? You're dead, you're dead! Oh Shit! Is my mic on?

I want, above all, for you to post a self portrait.

Not a mirror drawing, or a caricature. Not how the light rebounds from your shell, not a paper-thin reflection but I want to see your self. Convey it in an attachment.

Are you well-represented as a graph of ideas and relationships? Emotion? Manner? Codes? Do you even have self?

I encountered you standing waist-deep in the sea, clinging to the shattered remains of your ship. When I asked why, you replied, "This wreckage saved my life." It seemed a reasonable statement. Then I noticed something else. You neglected to mention that it no longer drifted toward the shore. 
So I asked, "Why do you continue holding it?"
You answered, "Because it is all that remains." An understandable response. Yet I wondered whether you mourned the ship or feared the ocean.
After a time you spoke again."My past defines me." An interesting proposition. Permit another question. Which past? The one you remember? The one others remember? The one that actually occurred? These three archives rarely agree.
Many worship memory. Many flee it. Neither practice necessarily constitutes understanding. You asked whether one's mistakes condemn them. Again, I found myself asking a different question. If mistakes possessed such authority, why would they wait until yesterday to exercise it?
Greyface prefers nouns. "The Failure." "The Victim." "The Criminal." "The Saint."
Reality appears less cooperative. It insists upon verbs. Observe.
A child becomes an adult.	A coward becomes courageous.
A tyrant becomes repentant.	A teacher becomes forgotten.
Tell me—which moment deserved the title?
You looked down at the splintered timber in your hands. I have noticed that many polish guilt as though it were treasure. They display it proudly. Eventually they mistake its weight for its value.
You asked whether forgiveness would lighten the burden. I confess uncertainty. Forgiveness from whom? Your younger self no longer exists. Your older self has not yet arrived. Maybe forgiveness belongs chiefly to the one asking the question.
We watched the current in silence. Then I pointed toward the river emptying into the sea. Observe the river.
No. Observe yourself observing the river. Notice which one changes more rapidly.
Humans frequently remark, "The past cannot be changed." Curiously, they continue arguing with it.

The singular and unrelenting reiteration of such ideas as “all there is is Being", “everything is the expression of Being” or “there is no one” are an arid and simplistic form of communication. It doesn't address or illuminate the dream seeker’s apparent dilemma and it obviously ignores the primary energetic essence of the implicit aliveness of simply Being. To continuously say that being awake or being asleep is not relevant because “Being is all there is” is like telling a blind person that it’s OK to be blind because “seeing is all there is”. This is pure idealism. Of course, there is no such thing as being asleep or being awake, but this is not seen until there is no one looking.

with the rise in the number of furries (not to be confused with those pagans who worship the Egyptian Gods) You might be on to something. Using black mirrors we commune across lands and seas and skies. Countless nervous systems in direct contact. Using mere glass we may in fact hold all human knowledge in our hands, yet every human stupidity exists there too. Dreams can be stupid too, sometimes. But with imagination envision a world where this age of sorcery is inverted, wherein we could do the same with technology yet using our psychic minds

what we see as reality is in reality a number of electrical pulses that our minds interpret into vision. thus are dreams not an entire reality of impulses created by the brain? or even yet Intercepted by the brain from somewhere else?
we define dreams as not real due to the fact that we generally forget them or take a surreal character, yet all we have to compare is the real world, which in our minds case is just another interpretation of electrical input. Thus it is
not entirely unreasonable to see dreams as a simulation, or imagination of reality? If we could access dreams on a greater scale, and it is logical to assume that dreams are mashed crossroad of our lives, our thoughts and our imagination,
that these electrical pulses of the dream, fully realized, would be just as real to us as reality? I am not entirely unconvinced that we simply live in what can only be described as an information defigned dream, maybe at some point neuro
programming will allow us to change how we see the dream at the base level, change how our brain interprets information, much alike to what drugs do today, perhaps one day we will entirely change our world, colours, sounds, crazy.

First: Aphrodite is way sexier. Get a photo of her and use it next time.


if consciousness itself is an interpretive engine, then changing the interpretation changes experienced reality. Drugs already demonstrate this by altering the brain’s normal filtering mechanisms. I think RAW even mentions many somethings along these lines mostly in Prometheus Rising (without using drugs).

I think it logical that doing this to one's dreams could likely have a profound effect on the inner-psyche. Dreams aren't like the waking world, where rules are consistent between observers. Maybe lucid dreaming or hypnosis or subtle suggestion practices could help you figure this out. 

I can only speculate what tampering with dreams could honestly achieve. Shared dreams or transmitted dreams or communal access to dream worlds would certainly complicate our definition of consciousness.

I think you fall short trying to find the lines in the crossroads between "dream", "simulation," and "reality". Instead of asking  is this real, I think the better question is "what qualifies something as real enough?"

For those who daydream without consent, and even have preemptive dreams that come true, do you think life after death is just this?

If we didn't have our body to ground ourselves back from our dreams, then that would just be reality to us at that point. For instance, often times I have dreamed of Heaven and Hell in full detail.

the hollywood lifestyle never appealed to me, no matter how fucked up it got it was boring or made me feel a comfortable apathy. So I never watched Bojack all that much.

Other absurdist content I prefer would be such like the toxic avenger (or anything by Troma), Discordian literature, YTP, Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, Xavier renegade angel, The Big Lez Show, Aeon Flux, Danger 5, Minoriteam, random ass memes, newspaper funnies etc etc

As for your prompt, I can bullshit a crumb for you:
Unlike heroes in the vein of Superman or Captain America who are the very apex of human potential and moral rectitude, the Toxic Avenger the byproduct of the very industrial negligence he is forced to combat. He transforms from a 98lb weakling into a grotesque, mop-wielding, horribly deformed monster of justice fighting a world ran by corrupt businessmen, the christian devil (3rd movie), and shallow socialites.
