/abs/ - Absurdism

all of this is pretty reasonable. Sounds like stuff that I believe when I'm on acid.

Yeah that's fucking stupid. And pointless.

I think that more than one "Models" of the universe can be reconciled.
for example:the universe is both eternal and cyclical,and will die forever in a heat death, because the univere is,also,Everettian, so infinite universes are cyclical AND infinite universes are big bang-heat death timelines

when i saw the smol thumbnail of this pic on the frontpage i mistakenly thought it might be a rare thornley

I get that there’s one electron, but how many quarks are there?

One electron universe implies theres ping pong paddles at the beginning and the end of time bouncing it back and forth.

Anytime anyone advocates some form of individualism in this day and age i wonder if they've been living in the same century.

Well it's not really that we've had enough variety in the types of individualism, nor the individuals those ideologies produce that we can deem the idea fundamendally unsound. If your "individualism" is about becoming the idealised cultural figure or picking your class and rolling for health, it feels like a very collective form of individualism. The market pressure turns all the great individual enterpreunership type libertarians into essentially a same person, since they are all optimising for the same task. In such standardized enviroment we have created, "individualism" is just an illusion to keep people buying mass produced products that fit their carefully engineered self-image. Meanwhile all the expression of true individualism are either repressed from the directions of both state and culture, or hastily standardized into a easily digestible form that lacks all of its former beauty and liberatory potential.
