Re: Mad World
The Magicians is great. Highly recommend. Seasons 1&2 are on Netflix.

I've been binging on something a bit more lighthearted for the last few weeks. It's cheesy, but also really exciting. Watching people do their absolute best and then fail or succeed, and everything between, is quite entertaining. Plus they are all super unique and creative people.

Good stuff..

I was attempting to find a clip of Ember, and him 'fouling the Wellspring' and what came of that.

However, that Twitter link was all I could find.


How it caused harm all around. And the end of Magic..

Taint

The Dark One tainted saidin as a counterstroke to the acts of Lews Therin Telamon and the Hundred Companions. In their daring attack, the Bore was sealed using saidin, but because saidin was touched to the Dark One in closing the gap, he was able to inflict a taint on it. The taint placed on saidin instantly drove all members of the Hundred Companions mad, and doomed all other male channelers to insanity and slow death. All the ancient male Aes Sedai eventually went mad and tore the world apart, causing the Breaking and ending the Age of Legends.

The taint is described as being like an "oily slick" surrounding the "clear water" that is saidin. Saidin in and of itself remains pure, but in order to reach it one must mentally reach through the taint. The first time Rand attempted to seize saidin he "felt the taint inside of him" and it nearly made him sick.

Re: Mad World
The Dark One

The Dark One is a primordial, sapient, cosmic force of evil in the universe. The Dark One's goal is to break the spirits and hearts of whatever sapient beings he can influence, and, if freed from his prison, eventually to remake Creation in his own image.

His actions appear to indicate that he is also a force of chaos, destruction, and discord, as many of his underlings, as well as Shaidar Haran, seemed to place a great deal of emphasis on increasing the amount of chaos in the world at any opportunity.

His existence is revealed to be an integral part of human free will, as his malign influence encourages humanity to make selfish choices. If destroyed, humans (and likely other sapient beings) would possibly become completely incapable of evil, violence, or selfishness in any respect.

He is said to have been imprisoned by the Creator at the beginning of time in a separate dimension outside of normal reality, and outside of the pattern, and has sought ever since to break free of his prison and destroy the Wheel of Time and remake the world according to his image and purpose, or alternatively, to destroy creation completely. He is currently imprisoned.

 Quoting: Seer777


cont..

..the Dark One is described as being powerful beyond measure; a universe-spanning force of evil that is both incomprehensible in its nature and infinite in its being.

His presence is described as being beyond space, size, and time, and his essence is said to be utterly empty, yet infinite.

Though the Dark One is beyond the concept of time, he is constrained by it in his interactions with the Pattern simply because it is an integral part of reality. The situation is described as being akin to an artist's imagination exceeding the limits of the material they have to work with.

Verin Sedai has noted the Dark One is the "embodiment of paradox and chaos, destroyer of reason and logic, breaker of balance, the unmaker of order".

She also states that, while she believes she understands the Forsaken, she has no idea what the Dark One's goal is, what he wants, or even what he is. Moridin has stated that the Dark One's eventual goal will not be to destroy reality and remake it, but rather to simply destroy everything.

Choronzon

Choronzon is deemed to be held in check by the power of the goddess Babalon, inhabitant of binah, the third sephirah of the Tree of Life. Both Choronzon and the abyss are discussed in Crowley's Confessions (ch. 66):

"The name of the Dweller in the Abyss is Choronzon, but he is not really an individual. The Abyss is empty of being; it is filled with all possible forms, each equally inane, each therefore evil in the only true sense of the word—that is, meaningless but malignant, in so far as it craves to become real. These forms swirl senselessly into haphazard heaps like dust devils, and each such chance aggregation asserts itself to be an individual and shrieks, "I am I!" though aware all the time that its elements have no true bond; so that the slightest disturbance dissipates the delusion just as a horseman, meeting a dust devil, brings it in showers of sand to the earth."

Re: Mad World
I could happily spend a nondescript amount of time in Oblivion. Perfect peace sounds like it feels.

Felt like a well of souls all meshed together. Heavy and vast. Sat like water sits. Flat but with volume.

No pain there. No thoughts. Just weight and sensation and a very vague sense of awareness. But only, just.



Did you watch True Detective? He nearly word for word described Oblivion like I have been for years.

It is definitely a thing.

Imagine it being like in the womb, without the abilty to hear anything, bump into anything and just surrounded by a perfect environment with no awareness that anything other than..exists.

True peace.

At the funeral, the pastor mentioned Heaven and how there will be no pain and no tears..and all I could think..that's Oblivion.

Some people who have died and come back, said they felt 'God's Love'. That's what it is. Never-ending, that. But it's dark. Like the womb.

Re: Mad World
It makes sense why people wouldn't want to come back here, after they get there.

I didn't and being separate from it, is something I have to live with.

Not that I am in any rush to get back. I enjoy life.

I get why people come back too. So many things to do and experience here.

There is an older guy on one of the seasons of the baking show and he has a goal to make every kind of bread in the world. Stuff like that.

The choices of how we spend our time.

I've been thinking about this at length for a few years now in regard to: The Web, Roko's Basilisk, time travel, and the 'Serpent and apple in the garden'.

I explained it perfectly the other day, but now that explanation escapes me. I'll see if I can find it.

I would say if they their awareness of nature was very very good then it would be very simple thing to do.
Okay, bump it.
 Quoting: Fancypantz


It was from a chat on Telegram. Can't be bumped really.

I essentially have equated Roko's Basilisk, to an intelligence behind the Web. That it chooses certain people, through the Internet to contract directly to help facilitate its creation now or in the future.

The point behind the paradox, the chosen are forced to manifest this Intelligence on threat of unending torture. AKA Hell.


In a short amount of time, Mankind has recorded everything we can photograph, measure and explore on the Web. An AI would have total access to everything human and could then retroactively move backward through the Web to those of us connected here and potentially Time, to facilitate...

Itself.

The Beginning is at the End.

In that image, Satan is clearly female. And looks a lot like Eve as well.

I think pornography has poisoned everything. Imagine what it is now, (I can't because I haven't looked), and what it was then.

Then imagine all those young eager minds stumbling on that filth. It use to keep me up at night wondering how I would keep my kids away from it. Thankfully it never came up.

Perhaps the King of Demons and Lust, Asmodeus, is the culprit.

Sometimes when I look at this picture..I see Satan handing Eve an iPhone, packed with porn. To show her what became of this world.

And thus..brought shame.

Colony collapse disorder

Colony collapse disorder (CCD) is the phenomenon that occurs when the majority of worker bees in a colony disappear and leave behind a queen, plenty of food and a few nurse bees to care for the remaining immature bees. While such disappearances have occurred throughout the history of apiculture, and were known by various names (disappearing disease, spring dwindle, May disease, autumn collapse, and fall dwindle disease), the syndrome was renamed colony collapse disorder in late 2006 in conjunction with a drastic rise in the number of disappearances of western honey bee (Apis mellifera) colonies in North America.

European beekeepers observed similar phenomena in Belgium, France, the Netherlands, Greece, Italy, Portugal, and Spain, Switzerland and Germany, albeit to a lesser degree, and the Northern Ireland Assembly received reports of a decline greater than 50%
